I drive a 1LT daily. I recently drove an SS to compare and the although the SS has more power the ride of the LT was much smoother. Since the roads around there get pretty bumpy I'm glad I went for the LT.
I felt the same way. Drove an SS and wasn't impressed with the sound or the handling, the V6 felt a lot more nimble and responsive. Plus the M6 clutch bothered me, way too mushy, definitely a "woman's clutch", LOL. And I guess I'm too much "old school", anything more than 4 gears is a waste of time to me, so I went with the auto.
After reading some of the horror stories on here about the replacement costs of the higher end rims and tires I'm glad I went with the full rubber and the steel rims too. I agree, the roads in this area are not like the ones in the warmer states, some of the potholes here have zip codes! LOL!!
