    AFM Range Disablers

    Is it true that you can have the AFM permanently disabled ?

    Let The Shipping Adventure Begin!

    They always look like a "10" in the showroom. Then as soon as you get them outside , they drop to a "7" or " 8", depending on what color you bought. Then you start to drive it and it goes back up to a "10 " again. I haven't driven mine since November. I know that the North East probably...

    Is this a good deal?

    I would spend the extra 10k and buy new. That way you know its never been abused. You get the Spring Mountain course. Is "black" really what you want? If you are like me (OCD) you will be cleaning the clear coat off the car. Mine is a 2022 (white) and I only now have 7500 miles on her. She...

    AFM Range Disablers

    I just learned about these "AFM Range Disablers" ($250) that you plug into your OBD port and it makes your Blackwing V8 engine stay in the 8 cylinder mode instead of dropping to 4 cylinders when you are in that sweet spot while cruising. The claim is that dropping 4 cylinders is actually not...

    My Experience with Complete Street Performance March 2026

    Now that I look very closely, these cars are completely "unalike". The Honda has its gas tank door on the driver side !

    My Experience with Complete Street Performance March 2026

    Good to hear. I was worried that this was not going to end well, like so many other modifications done at "expert" shops. I really can't bring myself to do ANY major modifications to my 22'. I may only do a more aggressive looking aftermarket hood. As I have always posted before, these cars...

    Oil change struggles on the ct5bw

    Glad my brothers let me use the their auto body shop lift. I did also install the Fumoto valve to make draining the oil 10x easier.

    Totaled?

    My dealer gives you a NY cheesecake when you buy a Cadillac. I called mine, the $100,000 cheese cake !

    Jacking up your Blackwing

    The pinch weld is stronger than you think. It is the attaching point on the car when you have to pull the unibody after a collision.

    First Caddy

    I still have my "First Caddy". My Dad's 1967 Cadillac deVille convertible. Currently sitting under two car covers, with over 205,000 miles, on the side of my house with about 2 feet of snow. I need to really buy a new house with multiple garage space. My second Caddy was a 1972 Fleetwood...

    Deal killer for getting ct5-v blackwing…winter set up?

    Nope. Car will sit in the climate controlled garage until more daylight hours and higher temperatures. And enough rainfall has effectively washed the road salt away.

    Help! 25 5BW Torch Red Seatbelts

    Wear your seatbelt all the time. I just did a military honor guard funeral today for a 22 year old female Army Reserve soldier who is dead because she didn't wear her seat belt. You do it for your loved ones. Last week it was a 24 year old male active duty soldier. Too young to die so soon...

    What do you do for a living?

    Writing books AND getting them published and turning a profit is very rare. When I got hired by my local PD, I needed a Sig Sauer 226 and bought a used one (never used to fire a round) and I was told it belonged to one of our recently retired cops who wrote the book "Exit Wounds" and rights...
