    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I don't personally but a good friend grew up with the Dryer family and raced with Dryer sponsorship back in the 70's and 80's. I bought two dirt bikes from them but I just played. Shattered a femur at age 50 but just played :) I think I know who Dink is but I will ask my buddy.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Some us old people (69) also are in the habit of calling them rims. Formed back in the 70's when we raced using 3 piece wheels (inner rim, outer rim and center section). The only spec the tire engineers were interested in was the specs on the rims (diameter and width) so we talked rims. We could...

    Winter rims/ tires

    I know there are a couple of old threads on this topic but they sort of drifted off topic. 😀 Anyway, I am at Tire Rack and they are scanning my 5BW. They believe they will have several options on rims/tires but it will be a couple of days before they have all of that figured out. I will share...

    I got in in March as well. I guess it was wild out there yesterday as everyone was trying to get one of the open dates.

    CT4-V CT4-V Blackwing Track Edition Wish List

    I like the interiors, gives them some color but I am not a fan of decals on cars. If they are part of the paint job, that is different but stick-on decals are fine for $5.00 models but look tacky on a real car, particularly a high end one. It will be interesting to see the videos and see if...

    2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing Order Guide

    Old guy take on this - We have had several cars with 3-D cameras and frankly, I am not sure they are terrible useful. However, the front camera and grid on my 5BW is great and helps me park in our rather tight garage. I use the front and back cameras a lot, just not sure I trust / use the 3D...

    Did they give you a new set of tires? :) Great video and your 5BW looked fantastic.

    Not your Grandfather's Cadillac...or is it?

    Had this same debate on a Audi site years ago. I have been an IT guy most of my life and now pushing 70, I am probable an exception. I expect that the poll is missing a bunch of 50-70 year old owners. But who cares if they aren't on the site. They are the ones driving around in Tour mode anyway. :)

    CT5-V Second thoughts about using by CT5 BW as a winter car :(

    A car is a car and they are meant to be driven.

    CT5-V Second thoughts about using by CT5 BW as a winter car :(

    We have had up 5 cars at one time but we are both retired and down to two cars. I was given an ultimatum, I would get a set of winter tires for this one. I agree with Soundman414, I bought this to drive and unless it is deep snow, I will be driving it. The up side is that being retired, I don't...
