.Just finished a 1000 mile road trip in our 2011 V Wagon. 500 out and 500 back with a day in between with family.
I was rocking and rolling with the speed limits in OK and TX and cruising at 77 to 84 for the drive down. Averaged 17.5-18.5 MPG. That was a little lower than I expected...
After getting all 3 clean, it was time for a group picture.
Our little red wagon and both Vettes. 2011 V Wagon has 55,000+ miles and is still going strong. Since it's the rarest car in the garage, I only drive it once a week or so.
The white Vette is a 2013 427 Vert 60th anniversary...
Not the V version as I have the ATS Premium edition of the 2014 ATS. It has the 2.0 T engine and AWD. It got a little over 72,000 miles on it now and, up until this past month, totally reliable. A month or so ago, I noticed coolant on the garage floor intermittently. I added some coolant and...
With the demise of the Cadillac DPi in IMSA just around the corner, is Cadillac planning to build a Le Mans / Daytona hybrid for the 2022/23 season? Anybody know?
Since most of us are under "stay home" or "lockdown" orders, my wife decided that I needed something to do besides watch TV. She decided that I needed to wash, clay bar and wax the Tuna Sport and Speed Wagon.
Here's the results.
C-Magic car wash soap, Clay Magic clay bar (fine), C-Magic Wax...
It's been a while since Speed Wagon was on a road trip, so it was time to stretch it's legs. My wife and I took Speed Wagon to Midland, TX to see the Permian Basin Petroleum Museum and to see the Chaparral 2J run. The museum houses Jim Hall's collection of Chaparral sports racing cars and one...
Speed Wagon posed for a photographer over the weekend. Here's one of the shots.
It still looks pretty good for a 7 year, 9 month old car with 42,000+ miles
So, I was down at my favorite Cadillac dealer getting a tire pressure sensor replaced and found a 2014 V Wagon for sale.
52K miles, Black on Black, Auto, No Sun roof. According to their website, they're asking $49K.

Over the weekend, I noticed that the intercooler coolant was a little low. So I added some. Only to have some of it leak out under the nose of the V Wagon.
I get down on my hands and knees and I see that the intercooler radiator is wet on the bottom.
So, the V Wagon is at my favorite...
I'm planning to be in El Reno, OK this coming Saturday for "Burger Day" with the V Wagon.
There will be an open car show and street party.
It's all clean and ready to go.
Even though my V Wagon never gets much time off, it hasn't been cleaned properly since winter set in last year. So, today was cleaning day. Washed it, vacuumed it, checked it over.
Here are some pictures to prove it.
7 years, 4 months old - ~40,000 miles
6-sp manual, no sun roof
Only...
My little red V Wagon is 7 years old today.
I ordered it in September of 2010. It was delivered to my dealer December 6th of that year and I drove it home on Pearl Harbor Day 2010.
It's got a little less than 40,000 miles on it now and I'm still enjoying every drive in it. With the...
It's V-Day in Yukon, OK today. I took the Little Red V-Wagon out for a little shopping trip and saw 2 more V2's along he way - A black V-sedan and a black V-coupe.
If you were in Yukon today just after 3 PM, I waved at you. (I think the driver of the coupe waved but wasn't sure.)
An older...
My little red Vagon is going to the dealer today for its 40,000 mile check up - fluids, brake pads, alignment, balance, etc.
Six years and 10 months old and the V Wagon has been one of the best muscle cars I've ever owned. Routine maintenance, tires and gas.
Time to treat it to a little TLC.
My local Cadillac dealership had a little gathering of V-cars and others today. Here's a few pictures:
My V-Wagon and an STS V.
4 V-wagons - the forth is there just hard to see. My red '11 wagon, a black '13, a white '13 and another black '13.
V2 Wagon (mine), V2 sedan, V3 sedan and ATS V...
Howdy,
In case you missed it, the Pirelli World Challenge series held their first race of the season at St. Pete last weekend. Cadillac Racing competes in the GT division.
St. Pete was a double header weekend for GT.
O'Connell and Cooper qualified 7th and 10th for the first race and finished...
My little red wagon (SPD WGN) is 6 today.
I took delivery of it Pearl Harbor Day 2010 - the first V Wagon delivered in Oklahoma (I think).
It's been a good 6 years between us.
