If there is a Lexus dealer around your area, you should check out the Lexus taste of luxury, an event where you can test drive an assortment of cars.

They have makes and models from the range of car brands. For example, Lexus has the GS430, so they would have the competing models such as the e60, A6....for you to test around a track. Since your interested in SUVs, they even setup a nice dirt hill.

BTW, anyone sit in a Lexus lately....ohhh the comfort along with the fit and finish is outstanding. :winkcool:

My wife has drivesn the Acura MDX for a couple of years now and we have been very pleased. Reliability has been excellent and it drives more like a car than an SUV. The MDX has an excellent third row of seats that completely fold down, leaving plenty of cargo space when that is needed. Do have a co-worker who bought the Volvo recently for his wife and they have also been very pleased. Don't much about the Cadillac or Lexus, though we did look at Lexus before buying the Acura. Back then the small Lexus (RX330 I think) was very small with no real third row seating option and the cargo space was really no bigger than the trunk on my 5 series. I know they have a mid sized model now that addresses that, as the large Lexus SUV was simply too big for my wife's tastes.
