Agreed. And SuAnne is really good. Knows her stuff.
I’ve had a LT3 HTC for a month. The rear cross traffic warning already prevented an accident backing out of my drive which has a street intersection to my right. Even with camera mirror, there is a serious blind spot to the right rear. I’ve been driving for 70 years and well understand old school driving. That said, I’ve never owned a car with such a bad blind spot. That said this is a wonderful drive and Chevy should be rightfully proud.
@FrontSeatDriver

You are 100% correct. The blind spot in this car is massive. It’s crazy. And like you, it’s great to have when backing out of your driveway. Definitely a big help for me.
IMO, if you have the money, I recommend the 2LT. I like the “additional bells & whistles”/features you get. One “Big Thing” for me was that I wanted the Heads Up Display. I might have considered a 1LT if the “HUD” was an option. I also wanted the GT2 Seats but, you must have 2LT or 3LT in order to put those seats in your build. For the Front Lift, it requires 2LT or 3 LT. I’m not sure about the 23s if you can get it now with a 1LT. As to 3LT, you pay around an additional $4,000 for 3 items above the 2LT. You get the GT2 Seats and you get Custom Leather and Microfiber materials. I’m not a fan of suede or Alcantara material, or paying $4,000. So clearly, I am for the 2LT and all that it offers. Thanks SueAnne and Jason for the Vlog

@@FrontSeatDriver yes I agree totally, I had to get a 1LT because I got the Z51 and HTC. I wish now I would have got the 2LT. The 1LT seats work fine for me but the heads up display and garage door remote in the visor are the two big things for me. And you get more speakers with the 2LT. I may just have Chevy install more speakers and a garage door opener visor.

Great video! She did great too. All 3 options are nice but for me, I always go all out and get every option. If I can’t afford all options, I just wait and buy when I can. I enjoy the extra options, never have the regret later on that I wish I got a particular option that can’t be added later, and having all options makes my cars standout and much easier to sell later, if I ever choose to sell. I’ll definitely be getting every option with competition seats, hopefully the Z06 if my allocation ever comes to life. Sucks because I’m number 7 at my dealership so it will still be awhile, and that’s and if it ever happens.

I bought a Black 2023 1LT it has adrenaline red seats so the red stitching came standard. I also own a C7 so I'm used to the blind spots so the lack of the camera rear view mirror doesn't bother me. I'm satisfied with my "budget build" ❤
Great video Jason and excellent topic for SueAnn to discuss. I like how she was comparing a 1LT to a 3LT in that it helps support the idea, or at least my idea, of going down the middle if you will in many things, but in this case how can you go wrong with choosing a 2LT optioned car. Early on she mentioned the HUD units. While I was being instructed for driving on the track my instructor told me bury the HUD unit in that he viewed it as a distraction, which in fact it is while on the track. There are other things to keep your eyes on and your ears open to. Continuing on, I'm always amazed at how guys like yourself by doing just a walkabout can identify what option package a C8 has. To me it's mind bogglingly. I can do it with the C6's and older generations, but once the C7 came on the scene I found I couldn't do it and now with the C8's I'm lost in space. Maybe if I owned a C7, which I'd still love to have, would improve my ability and I suppose if I owned a C8 I'd be a lot more aware of as well. But I don't see a C8 in my future, but boy would I love to have a C7 manual, especially a ZO6, but that's pushing my dream bubble a bit. So a GS or even a base model would make me a happy camper. Last but least, I appreciate how SueAnne talks slow and distinctly, and you let her talk pretty much without interruption except for suitable questions. Kudos to the both of you on this video. 👍👍 Don't get used to my short comments here. I have a reputation to maintain being "The Man of Few Words." 🤣 Save the Wave 🙋♂

The only reason I was going to go 3LT was I wanted two tone black and red seats, but not the red on the console, dash and doors, as I thought it was too much red. But I cannot see spending $4k to "delete" red for black (which should be cheaper anyway) and the only gain would be some additional red stitching.
