  1. It's not a 2004 CR-V in rear visibility, no. There is a blind spot on either side of the car that can't be covered with the mirrors. But straight out the back, you can see what you need to see. I haven't sat in the back seat yet, and tomorrow I'm taking it on the same road course I took the Regal on last week, so I haven't gotten a chance to really try the handling.... but all indications are that it's not a cruiser. I can say this right now though. He loves the look and the interior, but Albert doesn't like the ride. He's not a sports car kinda guy. Of all the cars we've had as testers, he still likes the Lacrosse best because he is almost always the passenger and wants quiet, smooth, and comfortable. If you include CUVs, he'd want an Enclave if it were smaller (note to Buick, there is a market for a baby Enclave out there) The doors are not heavy, I haven't done a hill test, but I will. I also haven't moved the Toronado in two weeks (feeling guilty) so maybe I'll take her for a spin and then try the garage test.
  2. Side visibility is fine. Ingress/egress is easier than a Camaro from the driver seat.
  3. Again.... illustrating the problem. But if a Canadian is here after their visa expired, they're not going to get random traffic stopped because "their left blinker fluid looked a bit low" and then hauled to jail while the authorities figure out their immigration status.
  4. Don't disagree, however most of that time is not from "process" but from insufficient staffing by the government. If all paperwork is in order, it shouldn't take much more than a year. I can be repatriated to Germany in about 6 months assuming everything is in order. 10 years is a bit much don't you think?
  5. The system makes no sense because it takes years to a decade to come here legally.
