BASE PRICE RANGE: $63,300-$88,400*
WHAT'S NEW: The Hybrid's 6.0L has a new 3.08 axle ratio for even better fuel economy and its 6.0L V-8 is now FlexFuel compatible. The "base" 6.2L engine gains Active Fuel Management Technology and all models receive a revised inner door design for better side-impact protections and a new locking steering column. The Platinum model clock is also standard.
COOL FACT: The Hybrid's Energy Storage System's internal fan is tuned to be quiet at low vehicle speeds, when occupants could more easily hear it.
SUM UP: CADDYS CAN HUG TREES. REALLY BIG TREES.
