    What driving mode do yall use for heavy rain on public streets?

    Snow & Ice mode will give best mpg on the highway. I can get 26-27 mpg here in flat Florida. The fat tires with a not too deep tread will hydroplane more. Only remedy for that is to slow down when really wet.

    CT5-V New '26 5BW: Some Annoyances

    I have issue #2 as well in my 2026 BW and hate it. I now just leave all alerts on now and they rarely go on in a bothersome way. I don’t think this is a legal issue because I could turn them off in my 2023 BW

    4BW-5BW What has the dealer replaced under Warranty for you?

    Ha ha. I can beat that. GM replaced the whole car for me. My 2025 five Blackwing developed an electrical/computer issue that the dealer could not fix. They tried for about six or seven times before GM agreed to replace the car for me. I now have a 2026 Blackwing five that is working...

    Curated by Cadillac - Hand built CT5BW

    Yes this can be done. I can get 26-28 mpg on flat highway under 80 mph. Hack: put it in snow/ice mode for best mileage while not using cruise control.

    What HP and TQ Numbers Would You Expect?
