The interface is TTL sychronous serial with hardware handshakes.  Right?

That should not be any problem for the SX.

I really, really like the fact that the CAN is set up to work in automotive as this is just about as hostile and electronically noisy as an enviroment gets.  The whole package looks good.  

I do understand that all that environmental protection comes as some reduction in speed [especially over long wires, like 1000 feet] and 8-byte packets of data. 

But, the trade-offs seem to be very well thought out.  Also, it has been around since the 1980s and has a proven track record.

What's not to like?

I still need to re-read the actual hardware document in detail before I put more questions to you.
