2012 Cadillac SRX | an average guy's review

[@MomReviews]

I’ve had mine for years! 148k miles and still driving perfectly!

[@averageguytested]

👍🏽 did you review yours?

[@MomReviews]

theMediaMart no... as much as I love it I wish I had.

[@apieceofdirt4681]

I just purchased a used 2012 SEX Luxury Edition that only has 18,121 original miles on it. It was literally owned by an older woman who kept it in the garage. My kids love the rear video screens and the fog lights make a huge difference. It’s a perfect vehicle that I thought I’d never be able to afford.

[@averageguytested]

Nice!

[@lumamaria9678]

I have this Cadillac, I love it, it barely has no issues, I doubt if I will ever change to another car, if you are a lover of music , the sound system are speakers are the best. It is so comfortable.

[@averageguytested]

I agree

[@dawnthezeta]

This is my 2nd SRX, I had the 2009 (which I loved, and should never have traded out), and have been itching for a newer one. Just bought a 2012 with 25k miles. Practically new . . . its tight, and lovely to drive. I will miss the cargo of the old model, but agree, this is a sweet a$$ caddy. Glad I got it. I feel nice and secure in it, not to mention, TOTALLY MILFY as I roll up to Tae Kwon Do class with my boy in the back. :)

[@averageguytested]

I'll ride with you any day! Enjoy!

[@johnkrueger9829]

Thanks for your video. Favorite part = "waitin' for the wind" song at the end 😁😎

[@averageguytested]

Thanks for watching👍🏽

[@gene978]

I knew my buddy Tony would make me smile today. It has to make you feel good Tony when a young man is a fan and following you. You're cool Tony. ;). I like that Caddy made the price of this SUV obtainable.

[@averageguytested]

thanks! it's a cool car my friend! Thanks for watching!

[@IBDynamic]

I just bought one a month ago and its a GREAT vehicle. 2012 with 35k its awesome.

[@averageguytested]

It is awesome! Enjoy!

[@averageguytested]

thank you! It was fun to put together!

[@donnasterling8060]

I love mine 100 thousand miles and still going, had a few problems by hey wear and tear but so far minor and beats a new car...

[@averageguytested]

I really enjoyed my time in the SRX!

[@danthemaintenanceman]

I have a 2011, though it has the 3.0 still runs perfect.

[@averageguytested]

Nice vehicle 👍🏽

[@averageguytested]

Thank you! I saw the CX-5 @ the NY Auto Show and I loved the styling - both inside and out. I have yet to review one - but the word on the street is that it pretty much ROCKS - except for it being sluggish. Look for updated engine choices next year!

[@erickp119]

drink every time he says "this is a cadillac"

[@averageguytested]

Thanks gene! Brooks is a cool car dude - he shares in our love of cars! have a great day and an awesome weekend!

[@beartunes]

Enjoyed your video Tony. Ive always liked the srx since I had one as a service loaner in 05. I'm considering trading my 2010 Audi q5 w 56k miles now for an srx, just a bit more space and comfort, smoother ride and hopefully less trips to the garage!

[@averageguytested]

I was just thinking about reviewing the Highlander just the other day. It's on the short list as well as the Venza! Thanks for asking!

[@JustinMarsh4]

My friend and I just rented the srx from hertz! Its beautiful

[@Bokehmo]

Enjoy your reviews! Would love to hear your opinion of the new Mazda CX-5.

[@Melia_Lea]

I found this car for about $14,000, but people are warning me that this will be hell to fix if it has any issues. I'm between this and a Kia Soul. What's your opinion on this?

[@averageguytested]

What year is the KIA?

[@averageguytested]

Yes - as soon as I can find one

[@mmone1178]

Thanks soo much for sharing! Luv the review!

[@averageguytested]

thank you for watching! :)

[@timfreeman3864]

I'm thinking about buying a 2012 sec luxury collection . Priced at $9,999.. 63,000 miles.. is this a bad idea? I know nothing about the car

[@averageguytested]

Knowing nothing about the car is he bad idea. If you go ahead you should have your own mechanic take a look and you should also do research on the vehicle to see if it’s been in a major accident, flood, etc. check carfax the price seems a bit low to me - unless you know and trust the owner.

[@averageguytested]

it is indeed!

[@averageguytested]

I wish I could upgrade too! maybe in about 20 years for me :)

[@pedrof830]

Tony, have you driven the Equinox, which is the Chevy version of this car? I wonder if it is worth spending double just to get more luxury, after all, both vehicles are essentially the same

[@the1998dude]

Where was this review filmed it looks like a cold area

[@gooseychalk05]

awesome review

[@isaiahortega6594]

1:07 Its a caddy😂😂

[@averageguytested]

The SRX is Sweet! let me know what you do!

[@jerwee]

anyplan for toyota highlander?

[@thegravelist]

Umm... solid car! Makes me want to upgrade my Element! Haha... maybe in 12 years!

[@LuisLopez-hh7bn]

He show more his face than the car

[@brooklynzoo7189]

I’m so pissed I wanted this car so bad but my husband made me get a Mercedes and I hate it it’s so simple on the inside no pizzazz at all way to simple

[@averageguytested]

I say you win either way!

[@JulioMartinez-qb6ic]

Boring as hell...

[@ayman139]

You made me buy it :)

[@averageguytested]

***** sweet! enjoy it!

[@NV3814]

***** How do you like your SRX so far? My wife is considering a used 2012 with only 30k miles. Any advice from a real owner would help greatly. Thanks!

[@TheOlavarria49]

All true, but for being a luxury, is missing the pop-up Navigator system and the fog lights... :-(

[@averageguytested]

+Jammin Dave agree

[@IBDynamic]

+Jammin Dave no fog lights in the luxury edition but it does have the pop up nav/music system but he didnt have it up . i just bought one and its awesome.

[@averageguytested]

Awesome indeed

[@hurleygreen927]

I have a 2011 SRX but I wanted to see the differences in the 2012 and 2011 I have 120K miles on my 2011, but so far no major issues. Question: is premium fuel more advisable than mid-grade fuel?

[@averageguytested]

I believe so. It should say inside the gas panel. Check it out the next time you fill up.

[@heavendavila9474]

What's your opinion on Cadillac maintenance? It's a GM so dependable. What do you think?

[@averageguytested]

I’m sorry that I missed your question. Did you wind up going with a GM product?

[@dbass9767]

I understand people are jerks, bought the car , thanks

[@averageguytested]

👍🏽

[@averageguytested]

this review was filmed near Dover, DE. It was actually pretty warm during parts of the filming - I'm just a spazz with the long sleeves :) Thanks for watching my video! Tony

[@averageguytested]

I rent most of the vehicles that I review from Budget, Hertz and National mostly. Some of the cars are owned by friends.

[@bioenergymedwithdennisharu7723]

how about the gas economy please?

[@averageguytested]

+LORDGIVEME ASIGN I got this from Edmunds.com - thanks for watching my video! EPA fuel economy estimates stand at 25 mpg city/36 mpg highway and 29 mpg combined for the Cruze LS with the manual transmission and 22/35/27 mpg with the automatic. The turbocharged engine (LT and LTZ) with either transmission receives 26/38/30 mpg estimates.The fuel-economy-focused Cruze Eco earns a laudable 28 mpg city/42 mpg highway and 33 mpg combined with the manual transmission and 26/39/31 with the automatic.

[@isaiahortega6594]

0:38 A 2002 Ford F-150 Park in your shot

[@averageguytested]

Always.

[@averageguytested]

Hey Pedro. There are more than just luxury upgrades the 2012 Equinox comes standard with a 2.4-liter four engine that produces 182 hp and 172 pound-feet of torque while the SRX gets a 3.6-liter V6 that puts out 308 hp and 265 pound-feet of torque. There are too many features to mention and the base SRX starts @ 35k - go caddy if you have the coin :)
