Which trim is worth it

LT

Worth it

The LT trim offers additional comfort and technology features that enhance daily usability without a significant jump in price. It's a worthwhile upgrade if you value added convenience and tech.

RST

Probably skip

While the RST trim adds sporty aesthetics, the functional benefits over the LT are minimal. Unless styling is a top priority, it may not justify the extra cost.

High Country

Worth it

The High Country trim provides a premium experience with luxury features and advanced safety technology. It's a good choice for those who want a more refined ride and are willing to invest in higher-end amenities.
