Took delivery. The amazing, the bad, and the ugly.....

[mark555055c]

The amazing: everything, it's perfect and i am lost for words looking at it in my driveway and while driving it.

The bad: i have to work, sleep, and take bathroom breaks, so i can't simply drive it all day long.

The ugly: all other vehicles every made.

Figured this place needed some positivity as too many of the "issue" posts are at the top, as the happy folks/the 99.9% of CT owners, are too busy enjoying their trouble free CTs to post.

Congrats.

If that is your Chevy Pickup adjacent, can you compare and contrast both please?

Ty sir.

Yes indeed.

Size/feel - Many say the CT doesn't feel big, but i disagree, it feels big which is a good thing to me. I was concerned when they announced cutting size by 5%. I'm happy to report it still feels substantial. Steer by wire helps it feel smaller in parking lots which is nice. With the silverado, i do not ever forget the size due to the overall crudeness.

Performance - CT feels like a Corvette, Silverado feels like a Silverado.

Towing - Both vehicles do well, but CT is just better. Granted, the trail boss trim is not the greatest selection for towing, but it looks cool, or at least it did until the CT arrived. For the 2-3 long trips that my wife does per year with our two-horse horse trailer, the Silverado will probably be used for the time being unless we see some pull-through SCs pop up in our routes. The rest of the weekly towing i do in Spring-Fall with the horse trailer or our 24ft boat is within 50 miles, and will be done with the CT.

Suspension - Tesla air suspension is amazing on road and off(tested only bumpy dirt roads so far). The Silverado z71 off-road package... it's comfy but crude.

Nothing else is really close for comparisons. CT crushes the Silverado in overall exterior quality, interior quality, comfort, tech, audio, etc.

Outstanding looking in your driveway. Don't sleep, keep driving.

In my 2nd month of ownership, every drive is a thrill and I’m more amazed every day with the thoughtful engineering. A Tesla triumph!

I picked my CT up two weeks ago and agree with everything said here. It's the best truck or suv I've ever been in.
