    Gas Grade

    Man, I was looking for places at the base of Mount Rose because I’d have loved to get the hell outta Cali. The problem with that was that for what we were looking for the price would be over a million. Out in Portola, I got a nicer house on 7.5 acres, for considerably less. It has everything I...

    Gas Grade

    Absolutely. There’s 93 available in both those places. Truckee is crazy fuckin expensive though. Over $6 per gallon. It’s worth the Reno trip to fill the tank. Even Portola where I ended up buying a place (Truckee isn’t the same place I grew up in anymore) is cheaper by far! I’m not sure what...

    Buying a pre-owned high MSRP 2024 CT5VBW or a new 2025 model?

    Oh for sure. Two of the mechanics were oggley eyed… this dude was just the old surly SOB of the crew.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    I never know what to say when receiving a compliment about the color. I say thanks, I like it too. I don’t want to sound like a pretentious twat! The other day I bet I did though. Dude complimented the color, and I said thanks, that’s why I bought it. 🤦🏽‍♂️ I immediately wanted to kick my own...

    Buying a pre-owned high MSRP 2024 CT5VBW or a new 2025 model?

    Just googled it, and apparently they did a recall/stop-sale on the LT4 in trucks… not sure how different the engines in the BW is.

    Buying a pre-owned high MSRP 2024 CT5VBW or a new 2025 model?

    I bought a ‘25. I’m hoping the documented issues that the ‘21-‘24 LT4s have are worked out. When I brought my BW5 in for the first oil change the other day, one of the mechanics made a comment about the ‘21-‘24 LT4 engine having so many problems by 22k miles that he would never buy one. Not sure...

    Man… I just drove up the CA coast to stay at my in-law’s place for the weekend and the highest any gas stations within a couple hours offer is 91. 🤦🏽‍♂️🙂‍↔️

    Had to make an order for materials to build a fence at the new crib.

    Low-Profile Ramps - Race Ramps Alternative

    There’s really enough room under there to change your oil without worrying about it crushing you?

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    On my way to get my first oil change (678 miles) I passed a dude in a gray (couldn't tell which steel or silver it was) CT5BW. I slowed down and got neck n neck, we rolled the windows down and gave each other the road dap peace sign. He revved off to the next offramp and I revved down the one...

    Bronze center caps

    I have the caps, just waiting on my bronze wheels to be made. They should be done early to mid May.

    Automatic Windows Up

    There’s a way to roll down the windows using the fob? How pray tell?

    Engine Failure

    LOL! Yeah man, you’re right! I had it twisted… Y’all are making me feel better and better about getting that extended warranty man. There was a hot second there that I felt like a simp getting taken advantage of. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    I talked with Team Cadillac in Vallejo, CA before buying my Blackwing elsewhere. Team Cadillac doesn’t charge over MSRP, they just didn’t have the car with the options I wanted.

    Engine Failure

    Here’s a screenshot of the warranty my dude. It’s 5/50, so if they’re shorting you on a year then something’s not right. Even on Cadillac website it says standard is 5/50. 🤷🏽‍♂️ Your suggestion of not just taking the dealership at its word is a good one though. I’ll give Caddy customer service...

    CT5-V 5BW new tire time - discussion

    Word, but are they available in the 305? The ONLY A/S tire I was able to find that fit the BW rear is the Invo. Which isn’t necessarily bad, the reviews are pretty good on them. I had been hoping for more of a straight up winter tire like the Alpin, but can’t find it anywhere. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

    CT5-V Oil change for ct5V BW

    Damn, you put 100k miles on a BW? You must be driving the hell outta that thing! Good for you man!

    Engine Failure

    The GMPP one shows in the app. But it shows as the standard 5yr/50k warranty. The 10/100 is on the paperwork.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Parking sensor cover/cap replacement part ?

    You could try a reboot of the car’s computer by disconnecting the battery maybe? My battery was dead because the PPF/Ceramic guys had the doors open for so long. All sorts of sensors and maintenance lights were on until the battery had fully recharged from driving over an hour or so. Once that...
