    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    A wise person once told me “no” was a complete sentence. But more importantly one needs to clearly know their intentions and motivations to make good decisions. That aside, I bought my 5BW sight unseen as it was a show/event car inbound to the dealer. Never seen a 5BW in person until my car...

    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    I paid several hundred for something. Don’t remember what and didn’t care. Early days and I was just happy to get the car at MSRP. Now if it was a Camry I would have walked.

    CT5-V Manual 25 Blackwing no blindspot monitoring. Why

    I lived a good part of my life without a cell phone either. Somehow everything worked out fine.

    CT5-V Manual 25 Blackwing no blindspot monitoring. Why

    In a couple months I’ll be coming up on 3 years of driving my 5BW. Not enthralled with the facelift or the dash (or the price). If I was buying I’d go for a used 22-24.

    CT5-V CT5-BW without goat rodeo?

    It’s nice to dream. But you know, even after you get a car there is no guarantee the rodeo ends.

    Soler Throttle Controller or Pedal Commander

    That’s how rich people in other countries beat the goat rodeo. The thieves are well aware of OnStar systems and therefore a good idea to install an aftermarket GPS tracker as well. Once it goes to Mexico the chances of recovery are zero. They don’t need to start the car. They will pull it up on...

    Noob-ish question on 5BW Oil Consumption

    I’m saying two things, the DIC oil life is at 5 to 10% by 2.5K to 3K miles when I change my oil and I don’t need to add oil in between oil changes. I’m also a little heavy on the right foot and shift at higher RPMs as much as I can get away with.

    Noob-ish question on 5BW Oil Consumption

    You’ll be fine. Just drive it 1,000 to 1,500 miles and change the oil. Pick up an extra quart at that time. I haven’t had any need to add oil between changes. Actually. since I do a lot of city driving my oil life indicator only nets me about 2,500 miles. I changed the diff out at the same time...

    Soler Throttle Controller or Pedal Commander

    What happens if the phone or app stops working. Is there a manual method to enter a code to unlock.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Looks blue, gray, and black simultaneously. Incredible.

    Just paid over $100 for an OEM air filter

    That’s the correct one. $50. I’ve ordered lots of stuff from Summit Racing, they’re 100% legit and great CS.

    The CT5 filter is $50 at Summit Racing. Delivery is one month out. Don’t need one, but going to order one since I need other stuff from Summit anyway.

    Drove her to NM. Looking so dark in the sun.

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    Frosted Flakes have been pissing in the USAs Cheerios far too long. Well the bowl got thrown in their face. Enjoy your breakfast.

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    If you had a GDP like the USA (or even Texas) you may be able to call the shots. But as it stands you have very little leverage. Until then how about moderating your foolishness. You have no idea what you’re talking about. How many rocket launches did Canada have last year. Oh wait, that would...

    Just paid over $100 for an OEM air filter

    It’s not. If you can clean a toilet, you can clean a K&N filter. I ran one on my 72 Camaro, but not on modern cars.

    Undercoating?

    Reviews of rust inhibitors. I have used Fluid Film. For a permanent coating on a rust free surface I use 3M 3584 Rubberized Undercoating.

    Hide sliders when hitting Vmode switch?

    The v-mode is immediate even though the display lingers. If you’re already driving that aggressively why would you be looking at the screen, should be looking at the road. There is something I’m completely missing here.
