After the snow, and heavily salted roads, we finally had some warm weather and heavy rains that cleaned all the salt from the roads. So I decided to take the blackwing out. During the ride, I stopped at the pet food store ,which has a huge parking lot. I parked way in the back away from...

I agree, and I don’t usually do this,( well, except for the kids with the Hondas and their big mufflers, I enjoy messing with them), but I couldn’t resist.

Driving home yesterday I noticed an Audi SQ5 in my rear view mirror driving like a a- hole, cutting people off, and cutting in and out of traffic. I came to a red light and he pulled next to me. I knew when the light changed, what he intended to do. So when the light changed, sure enough, he...

I have to agree here, I had the 1-4 skip shift on my 1999 corvette. you had to shift before 10 mph, or after 19mph to avoid it, or give it at least half throttle. It was so annoying,I bypassed it with a dummy plug I got from Ecklers.

I’m considering when I need to replace my summers, going to the gloss bronze sv104 wheels. I fig I should get 1 more summer out of them before they need to be replaced.

Hey Terrance finally mounted and installed my snow tires. Here are pics - they are beautiful.

Just out of curiosity, how many of you guys would be willing to go through the goat rodeo again if a refresh comes through for my2025, and Cadillac announces that this will be the final year for the Blackwing?

I just got the first oil change @ 1100 miles so the car is now broken in. I have to say that this car is amazing. You are right about not realizing your speed as I had a Kia inches from my bumper at 80 mph. So I wanted to see if he was going to try to keep up. Before I knew it I was going 103...

I have to say that my last 2 bmw‘s ( 2022 x5m, and a 2020 m5c ), the ventilated seats were one step above useless. On the other hand, the seats in my 2015 ford explorer were great.

Boy I lucked out when my Blackwing was ready for pick up, it was 50 degrees and sunny. I was able to put 250 miles on it before last night’s snow. Hopefully this doesn’t kick start winter.

Went to the dealer on Saturday afternoon and picked up the Blackwing. It was only a 15 mile drive back home, but I can already tell it was worth the over 8 month wait.

Well I just got back from the dealer, and my Blackwing is at the Jersey/ Pa. Border, and will be here either later today or tomorrow. My journey which started last May, is almost over.

Like a lot of you guys, with this latest update, I now have a EDD of 1/28. I know not to get too excited, but I believe I see a light at the end of the tunnel. We haven’t had any snow yet this winter, so I guess I know when winter will officially begin

When I did this, depending on the car,and position on the trailer, you could get out the door. Bigger vehicles and pickup trucks, you went out the window. I know it seems impossible to get out the door, but it was possible ( this was back in 1980, a I was 170lbs with a 28 inch waist 😄)

As someone stated, it’s best if you check with multiple dealers in your area. I called all the Cadillac dealers in my tri state area, got on their lists and waited. Luckily, the dealer nearest me got 1 allocation for a manual transmission 5bw. I went from 1100 on 5/24, to 3800 on 12/21. The...
