Man, they're sooo different. The CT is going to be a behemoth to drive and park in the city. It will be great for camping, recreation, towing. The Plaid S will be a sleek speed demon that has gotten a lot more refined since my 2014 P85D (still a speed demon in its own right). If you're a two-car family, I think it makes sense to have one of each. The CT would be a birch to commute in, unless you're super rural.
