I really think this may be a do-all pad for many folks.

Thank you Ray, great review as always!
I'm very tempted to get the XTherm myself for a do-it-all-pad, instead of my XLite, as i sometime can get a little chilly at the bum-region…when temperatures drop below freezing.
I absolutely love my xtherm! My only regret is getting the medium size instead of the regular size…it's just a few inches short for me and I have to contort to stay completely on the pad.
I sold my XLite last year after getting in an XTherm in the crazy Eddie Bauer Black Friday sale.
It is now my only pad for year-round use. With the more durable bottom, I don't worry about durability and I leave the 1/8" CCF at home.
Simpler, warmer, more durable, and even lighter than the XLite plus CCF. I really love this thing.
Also, great review Ray.
I picked up a regular during the REI sale, it has replaced my heavy Exped DAM9, plus will be less bulky, saving both weight and space in the pack. I'll still use a GG Nightlite pad as backup on winter trips. If the regular is too short, I can place my GG sitpad under me also as planned. I have yet to use it, as it was purchased at the end of the snow camping season, even though temps remained cool afterwards.
