I think that you left out the "Design" part in addition to why people buy vehicles. The shift in the way people buy cars is changing, people look at a car as an expensive accessory that's why people buy Luxury or sports cars. You wouldnt' spend an extra $30,000 on a Cadillac STS for packaging, powertrain, and features if you knew you could buy the same thing in an Impala for less. I think that design still plays a major part in if a vehicle sells.

I don't like the angles of the truck pictures.. and so far that's why I don't like it. The truck is trying too hard to be a Titan, at least so it seems. I'll stick with the Avalanche until i see better photos or different models of this truck.
