Cruze is okay and economical to maintain. Prius will hold its value better.

Save the environment by consuming less (including cars)

Plus the inside of the Caddy will be incomparable to either the Cruze or the Prius...
The cts has a fairly low front air dam, a pan would still help but not more than 3-5%. Transmission was flushed and filled along with a filter at 100k. Im very sad to be giving up power, leather, heated, memory seats... heated mostly now that it is winter.
