So who wants my Silverado?
That's INSANE. We barely paid 500/month SmartLease on our 40K$ 2005 Venture for 36mos.

New or used?
Unless you order the car from the factory you'd be compromising anyway with what the dealers have on their lots. I may one day order a Cadillac from the factory but frankly with so many low mileage cars for dirt cheap there is no viable argument for buying new all the time.

How old is YOUR car in people years?

Cheers and Jeers for 2008
Ah Ha, two years in a row neither a Cheer nor a Jeer. I'm hugging the center quite nicely

Invicta After All?
Really unfortunate but true. It might be called Invicta in Canada though seeing as LaCrosse is Quebecois slang for something inappropriate.

Lincoln MKS Test Drive
To answer the question I gravitate to MKS sized cars and therefore I'd take the Lincoln.

Even More New Pics of 2010
Cool so the Regal will have an Impala/Lucerne sized trunk. That's very encouraging because I hate the dimensions of the trunks of the current Epsilons (Malibu is too shallow, G6 is too small period).

Project Achieva
That Cavalier gives me flashbacks...

Last W-body Lacrosse
There were a few that stood above the rest (The Regal/Century, Intrigue, Impala, Cutlass Supreme all come to mind)

Buick and Opel to Share Design
What's that I hear? The sound of Saturn flatlining?

Some more odds and ends
I was hoping so but with the -40* windchills and the frozen tire sensors I figured better safe than sorry :AH-HA_wink:

Black '07 Impala, probably should have mentioned that in the post

Some more odds and ends
My dad and I are prepping my late grandfather's car to get it driving again (wheels haven't turned in a bit over seven weeks) and ultimately prep it for sale (I'm going to try and buy it myself, hopefully, but that's another story). I ran it for ten minutes here and there while he was hospitalized and it's been plugged in to the block heater, so the engine block isn't frozen. The battery is toast. Won't hold a charge, so obviously that needed to be replaced. When I did get the car running I noticed that the left rear tire pressure sensors are both displaying a tire pressure of "---"kPa rather than the regular 190 kPa being registered from the front tires. I know the tires aren't flat or low on air so I'm wondering, will the tire pressure readings come back when the wheels are turning and warm up, or have the sensors frozen somehow? Are there any important things we should check/attend to after the car has been sitting for nearly 2mos before we unleash it on the road again?

Advice on shopping for and test-driving a used pickup
Also you might want to check these out, they should be in your area too. http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=c...ar_id=253119743 http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=c...ar_id=254423435 The one on the top is perfect IMO.

Advice on shopping for and test-driving a used pickup
ya, we returned our leased 2005 Venture LS in Feb and they wanted 17K$ to buyout the lease for us to keep the vehicle. It went to the auction and our dealer bought the van back and set out selling it for 10.5K$, a move which brought us within an inch of buying it back.

Advice on shopping for and test-driving a used pickup
Damn that's a nice truck, clean too! I love the GMT800 Sierra/Yukons but for some reason I think the new GMT900 Chevrolets look better, at least in SUV Form. Here's hoping you can get out of your lease but I think that GM is really trying to dump as many leases as they can so you might just luck out. Just ditch that ugly bedcover (!)

If you had $20k to spend on a car...
Yeah a slightly used Deville/DTS would likely top out my shopping list.

If you had $20k to spend on a car...
Not much IMO, maybe a CPO Cadillac CTS, and a list of cars that I'd buy that you probably aren't into
