Oh please do explain. I don't know the full story behind why, but part of it.

if thats the only reason to produce the sierra........thats dumb.

I'm sure it's not the only reason. But hey us rednecks down in TN do like our trucks to have navigation so we can tag GPS darts to our cows and find them easier.

My only complaint about the V is that it's exterior should differ more from the regular CTS. AT LEAST through on some more badges lol.

Oh I know, been there MANY times......especially when I was "shopping", I ended up picking up an STS, Momma liked the seats better than the CTS, it was all about the comfort on a long run. and they ARE!!! lol

Why??? The CTS's interior is beautiful. The V actually looks more sporty but I would love to have gotten the Wood Trim from the Premium trim of the regular CTS.

The exterior mayne, not the interior.

The Massive hood bulge and different grille isn't enough of a change? people buying a CTS-V want a car faster than the CTS. thus the car should look like the CTS. adding more badges would look tacky since there are already like 4 V badges on the trunk and behind the front wheels.

Before I got my CTS-V I seriously flirted with the idea of getting a 2009 STS.. but this time it would have been the 4.4L SC STS-V

I didn't necessarily mean add more badges, it was just a gesture.
