Interesting, Thanks for sharing
It will work very well for my needs that have changed since I ordered my CTD 3.5 years ago.YESSSSSSSS!
You don't know how excited I am about that. I think I'm scaring my wife.
My wife has mentioned getting a crossover in the past - and this would certainly have my vote. Near-CTD fuel economy, in a slightly bigger package. Boom.It will work very well for my needs that have changed since I ordered my CTD 3.5 years ago.
YESSSSSSSS!

In the past I've seen things get switched around before production actually begins. I would have never guessed 6T45. I was thinking 6T70.Interesting, because the quote I posted was from Chevy's Director of Marketing. So either he was unaware it's a 6-speed - or it isn't, and it was mistakenly entered.
x2. My jaw dropped when I saw the redesign. Hopefully my dealer will get one in first and I can throw a video up for you guys.Yep, I think I've got a woody.
