All, yes it's true. The 2011 RS was primarily (sic) my wife's vehicle, but I enjoyed it also. We took a 1200 mile trip just a few weeks ago and, at 6'5", I never felt tired or uncomfortable. It all boiled down to. that she had difficulty with the visualibility. Probably not enough reason for many to trade, but need her to feel 100% safe in whatever that takes. SO, we traded for a 2011 Cadillac Escalade. The Caddy had 4K and virtually is like a new vehicle. We are in our early 50's with two grandchildren, so I guess Nan and Gramps finally have something to take them to Wally World.
Gramps has 420 hp and 480 ft lbs or tq for hauling hinnie and the travel trailer. Nan has cooled seats and a DVD player in the 2nd row for those boys, ha ha!
Never really passed the newby status here, but I thank everyone that helped with my questions and concerns, espically Jeff with GM customer support.
