This is the official thread to apply in. I know people have offered in the past, but it's becoming more and more clear to me that I can't run the site mostly by myself. Producing original content is what is most important for C&G, and I would like to devote more of my time to that as well as getting more people in on that action. The Auto shows are where this is most important. I'm going to try and assign everyone a brand or two and I want those people to write about whatever news comes out of the auto shows regarding that particular brand. Promoting that content can be a full time job in of itself, so that's why I made that a separate position. Croc, I thank you for your application and you're one of the first in line to get forums when they start getting handed out. I just wanted to make the announcement globally rather than respond to just one email.

I'm going to have to go to the BMW and Benz dealer to find out. I'll say this, it feels exactly like a small Cadillac crossover should. Fast, handles decent (so far, haven't pushed it hard yet) feels luxurious, looks it too.
