I'm not knocking anyone's opinions or thoughts.
I agree the LC version looks better, but that's subjective, they're both ugly AF
that hybrid stuff is a big turn off for me. One more system to fail, AA and I don't take get upset about mileage until I'm in the single digits if the tank is big enough. 7mpg on a 12 gallon tank gets old in a hurry.
I'm in the same boat, either would fit my budget. Then for a few bucks more you've got the unproven reliability of the Ineos. That thing kinda makes my pants tight. Especially if they sold it as a roller.
I daily a 40, so options don't really mean anything either. Lol
