a) Let them keep going along side the new models with 3rd naming structure in 5 years. or b) Slap the new nomenclature on them mid-generation. I don't think either one of those is a good option. Which unfortunately means sticking with CT#/XT# for the foreseeable future might be the best way to go. And that sucks.

I'm all for slapping names on the current stuff (preferably at a MCE or new model intro) and dropping the letters even if its drastic. Lincoln is doing it slowly but surely, and I think its a good thing.
Imagine calling the Escalade an "XT8". Does anyone here like that idea?

Yes, especially since they had some very good names. Like Impala, Malibu, Catalina, Bonneville, and Grand National. I always thought Acura Legend Coupe was a good name. Now it's something like TLX.

Trucks were always traditionally a letter and class size, but had names for trim levels. Ranger and Explorer were F150 trim packages in the 1970’s.
Ford took the 500 sedan that was doing extremely poor, changed very little and brought back the Taurus name and sales increased. |

Silverado ZH2.
Appears to also be a preview of the HD truck from the grille and mirrors.
