XTS. I like it.

Funny how a string of three letters can induce certain feelings in a consumer. When I hear DTS I think clumsy. Maybe it's the letter D. Anyway, while I'm not a fan of the alphabet soup method of car naming, I think XTS is better than DTS, and certainly better than the French-derived DeVille. American cars should possess English names (or in this case letters). We've had enough of Sevilles, DeVilles, Grand Villes, ElDorados, ElCaminos, Granadas, Cordobas, Versailles, Lucernes, Calais, and Parisiennes.

Sixty Special anyone?
