Just read your entire thread with interest as I just purchased a 1940 COE, Congrats on the great journey with your truck. I most likely will be in touch for advise (c; I'm a new member here and sadly I can't view your photos for some reason. What part of NJ are you in? I'm in Albuquerque NM but visit NJ to see family I'd love to see your truck This is My COE as purchased

More competition, and Hyundai stilll has EV credits. This thing pretty much checks the Bolt everywhere. Even the styling and interior is better.

Sweet, more awesome electric options.

I don't really expect it to die out any time soon. CUVs get too close of fuel economy to their similar cars now that even a gas price spike probably wouldn't hurt them, especially with hybrid and plug-ins on their way.

For me, a sporty coupe or convertible would be a weekend fun car to take to the hills and winding roads about 2 hours from here for the occasional drive, and for driving to the beach, etc. I wouldn't need all out track performance. The Corvette doesn't really appeal to me--the interior is too dated and aren't the seats of the C6 supposed to be awful? Seems like a Miata or Mustang would be way more modern inside and enjoyable. A V8 Challenger (2015+) is appealing to me also.

Small niche, but coupes and convertibles are important for a luxury marque.

i think a lot of folks like to drive manuals including me, but unless its a toy car (ie third car) i can't see owning another. why? traffic. TRAFFIC.

Yeah, I don't buy that. Can't compare it to the CLA since the CLA is FWD/AWD. The ATS lines up in size and drivetrains w/ the C class (and 3/4 series), availability of a 2dr, etc...if not in price. Anyway, it's a moot point... So I wonder if the CT4 will offer a coupe and convertible, it really needs those body styles to compete w/ the C-class and 3/4 series... not to mention it is absurd that there is no Cadillac convertible.. Cadillac will probably never be a full line luxury marque like BMW and MB with lots of niche models, but more body styles is a good thing..

Stopping at a yummy cafe to eat, got out of the auto and saw across the street this Maverick Grabber. Very clean with the Washington state collectors plate on it. Walked across and checked out this little Grabber with the 302.

Cool new patents filed by GM for aerodynamic aids. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1118245_gm-files-patents-for-new-active-aerodynamic-aids Clearly the US is falling behind in technology and leading the world. In case all you roaling coal lovers think Coal is the future, nope, Natural Gas is especially for electrical production along with wind, solar, hydro, ya know those green energy sources.

Good ol' @smk4565 ..... That's with the rear seat down. Try taking 4 people plus luggage in your GLC with 17.6 cu ft The Encore has 18.80 and even that is tight. I stand by my statement. The GLC can't even swallow 2 full-size suitcases in the back. Advantage, Cadillac with the XT5. (30.0 cu ft) THAT IS SELLING SPACE AND COMFORT. Exactly as you suggested.

A abomination unto God. But you knew that.
