    Cadillac Readies A New Ad Campaign

    Cadillac is readying a new ad campaign for the fall that will portray the brand in a new light. AdAge reports that the new campaign will focus on American values, such as anyone can create their own destiny. The main theme of the campaign is "Work Hard. Be Lucky."

    This is a complete U-Turn from Cadillac's previous ad campaigns which featured the ATS attacking some of the famous roads around the world and Kate Walsh talking about certain models. As AdAge points out, Cadillac's recent campaigns haven't had a coherent theme.

    Cadillac is keeping quiet on whether the "Work Hard. Be Lucky" will be the tagline or not.

    "It could very easily end up being a line of copy along with other lines; we don't really know yet. It's an open question as to how dramatically it will be featured," said Cadillac Spokesman David Caldwell.

    We'll find out in a few weeks as the campaign begins to slowly roll out.

    I as many other hate this message as luck should have nothing to do with Cadillac.

    A Cadillac V series in front of a Trailer of a lottery winner is luck.

    They could do so much better.

    Every year there is a new slogan, I guess the "standard of the world" of no more. I think they just come up with lines based on what they think might create some sales in the next 6 months. They never think of a slogan that they can use for 20-30 years. BMW has been "ultimate driving machine" for 30 years, consistency is good, people know what BMW stands for. "Be Lucky" sounds like a sign outside of a cheesy casino.

    love those upcoming front drive 3 cylinder ultimate driving machines!

    BREAK THROUGH with the 03 or 04 CTS and led zepellin, awesome ad campaign.....

    Me thinks I would love to find an 06 or 07 CTS 3.6 manual to play with! The old style........ that was the best....

    should the new flagship sedan on Omega be the LTS name or should it go back to STS? or DTS even?

    Omega sedan should be Fleetwood, Omega coupe should be Eldorado. CTS renamed to Seville, ATS renamed to LaSalle. Escalade keeps its name, and I am sure they can find some French names for the future crossovers. XTS could be renamed Calais so that people don't associate it with the Deville.

    There was a Cadillac Calais in the late 60s, early 70s. I don't like the name, but they don't have a lot of names in the arsenal that are any good besides Eldorado and Fleetwood.

      Interesting read, it does bring up a very important point, will the current CCS power walls work forward once everyone moves to NACS charge port?

      My latest quest is a possible upgrade of my turntable. Right now I run a Fluance RT 82.   I just upgraded my CD game with an Audiolab 6000 CDT.    I am enjoying a ton of Vinyl right now. Classical, some jazz albums almost free. older albums often sound quite good and can be picked up quite cheaply.

      I am not aware of travel cases for internal drives. Usually you have the drive and once you have made sure you own static electricity is discharged on your body, open the computer and unplug the power cable and data cable to the HD. Then you unscrew the screws holding the drive in. Put the drive into an Anti-Static bag and then usually into a box that has foam padding on all sides to protect the drive and then tape it up to close it.  With both drives in their proper storage bags, you can then have both drives in between foam insulation for handling any dropping of the box, etc. Pack them in a box and tape shut, should then easily handle going through your carry on or checked in luggage. To ship a hard drive, you need to: Secure the hard drive in its original packaging or anti-static bag. If you don't have an anti-static bag, place the drive into a zipped freezer bag to prevent any moisture getting into the drive during transit. Sandwich the drive between foam or wrap it in bubble wrap to absorb any minor shocks. Put the hard drive in a padded shipping box. Close and seal the box. Label your package. Amazon.com : hard drive shipping box This is pretty much all you need.
