    The A/C is the 1st step up from the base RT, next is the "S", and finally the LTD. In my humble opinion, the A/C offers the most "bang for the buck", followed by the "S", which offers a few more co-rider niceties...

    What dragonrider said. I just recently purchased a new 2011 A & C. Have the 2010 RT-S--which was the deluxe model when it first came out. I am very happy with the A & C and felt no need for CB, color, or Garmin upgrades.

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    If that's not confusing enough ; for 2013, they appear to have dropped the "Base" RT, and left that role to the old "A&C" model...

    They probably didn't sell many "Base" RTs - a radio is a nice thing to have. Don't think I'd opt for the SE again though..

    Don't you mean "Busted Windshield and Wobbly Steering Wheel"?

    RE: Yugo. The year they came out and were available in the US, the local Oldsmobile dealer was the place to buy them. They were there about three weeks and then they were gone.

    I will bet the people who bought the "extended warranty" were kind of ticked off.

    Reminds me of the goofy movie "Drowning Mona", starring Danny DeVito and Bette Midler. Everyone in the movie drove Yugos.

    Talk about a low-budget movie! D

    don't forget the old one:
    Yugos have only two doors for a reason...
    If they had four of them; they would have been called, "Wegos"
