    Maybe we go deep and bring back the Fleetwood for this caddy.

    Or it actually could be true. I sent the story to our company internal chat forum. That allows people with same interests to connect and the BMW forum was all positive about this with the attitude of why should we have to wait for others? While some could be considered sarcasm, I was surprised to see a positive number of people post that they liked the story and agreed with it since they felt they had surperior auto's so why waste time on lower end drivers. Was an eye opener.

    So Tesla expects to make enough money on selling cars so that they can offer these super charging stations for free. I know there was the story about these stations. Has it been updated that Tesla is now going to actually do this? I do not see how this will work if it is a free service.

    We'll E85 failure I see is due to the high cost of the fuel along with the lower energy level per gallon compared to gas, diesel and CNG. Along with lower HP, Torque, general availability all leads to a reduced desire and demand for the product. Negativity about the tax dollars spent on it and if the subsidies were removed, it would be on pare cost wise with gas at a lower performance level. This alone just kills it. Even Propane is a better alternative than Ethanol.

    What does GM not get about this? Having a 4.8L Baby Duramax for the Half ton trucks and full size BOF SUV's would be a big sales hit.

    The Tesla Model S has a longer range than our 2004 CR-V That might be true, but then you can stop and quickly fill up with gas and keep going compared to trying to find a level 3 fast charger or have to do the slow boat 110 charge.

    Very Cool, I could see the title of this being "Ethanol, the 21st century Snake Oil Sales Man?" Then do an in-depth review of when the industry started, the amount of tax dollars given to the industry, what the cost of corn was at the beginning per bushel and what it is now. Also include other costs of components then and now to see if there really is a correlation of increased cost to the public. What is the real benefit of Ethanol and is it delivering on what was promised? I would look forward to reading this.

    That is a Sexy Car! Way to go Drew, so tell us all about it. Is it fully loaded with AWD or just FWD? Looking forward to hear all about it. I am very excited for you. Congratulations.

    Very cool, the Japanese, Chinese and European along with the US auto makers should be concerned as the Koreans are responding to build world class leading cars for each segment or near there. Be interesting to see where this company is in 5 to 10 years. Will it replace Toyota and then fall like GM or will it be able to take over and become one of the largest car companies in the future?

    Happy B Day Senor Ding Dong. Have another box on your special day!

    Sadly even bike riders do not seem to know what hand signals to use to change lanes, they just stick out a finger on the right or left. Lazy drivers they are. Even a car with working turn signals seems to be too much work for some to use to indicate what direction they are going. We really have gotten to a level of lazy drivers. These are the type of people who need self driven cars.

    Using this criterion, the Cadillac El-whateversomethingstupidname is not worth caring about either. More will probably buy and afford The El Miraj than a Tesla.
  13. G. David Felt
    YAWN! Like the average person could afford this limited range car. Only positive I see is that this will make auto companies rethink how they build their cars.

    So we could take all the Euro Cars and dump them back in the EU and have those companies pay some big fines.
  15. G. David Felt
    Very cool, had never heard of or seen this before. Thanks for sharing.

    Ethanol, a tax payers waste of subsidies to a select group of individuals who have become rich off the backs of hard working Americans who have had to deal with higher food prices due to the lack of Ethanol to reduce the fuel cost to the average American. Ethanol equal less HP, less Torque and LESS MPG. It might burn cleaner with less CO2 but it is such a small amount that it would be better to go with CNG as a logical next step. Shut down the Ethanol industry, save the billions in tax dollars and put it back into the US infrastructure. There is a real benefit for americans. Smoother roads, stronger bridges, etc. Ethanol, the 21st century Snake Oil Sales Man! Why not have this in the Alternative Fuel category?

    So here are some names to try on: Cadillac Jazeel Oliphant Qiang Renild Xanadu
  18. G. David Felt
    I think this car will be out for sale Spring 2015, otherwise GM misses the market and sales opportunity.
  19. G. David Felt
    So much for BMW driving Machine! FWD Appliance is their new drum beat.
  20. G. David Felt
    I like the concept over all, why not use a high compression CNG motor in place of the Diesel?
  21. G. David Felt
    So then we all agree that this captures the past glory of Cadillac and also encompasses a nice 21st century take for the product line?
  22. G. David Felt
    YES YES YES, Produce this car! Name it Eldorado???? Not sure, I think the older crowd would love it and the car enthusiast would love it but that is a limited crowd. I propose a new Series of 21st century Names to apply to the new generation of Cadillac. Time to let the old cars live in their glory of history. Over all, I have been thinking on this for a while and yes I do love many of the old names, but in the 21st century with all the entitled young people, these names are heavily tied to the past. If GM is to grow Cadillac and gain new fans and conquest buyers, I believe it is time to look to the future with 21st century names and not rehash/relive old names of history some that might or might not have the greatest past. Eldorado is an amazing car, but the last few versions were not living up to it's name and I believe it is time to move on to a new 21st century name. Thoughts on new names?

    EU = Socialist attempt to standardize the same same for everyone. Just does not work in the real world.
  24. G. David Felt
    This is a dying product line that could be an executive pet project and until that person retires and then Toyota will probably just do away with it. There really is no need for this product line.
  25. G. David Felt
    I actually like the design element, I think it works well for the car and gives it a bit of a hot rod look.
