Cadillac News: 2026 Cadillac LYRIQ-V, Fastest Cadillac Ever
Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Cadillac
I haven't seen any photos or diagrams of the new Charger internals, but it's the only domestic I can think of that is available in both ICE and EV with the same styling and platform...would be interesting to compare the floor and underside of each (Some of GM's EVs like the Silverado and Equinox share a name but little else w/ the ICE versions). -
Human Shrek is a biggun'...

Kind of feeling like 2020 again... holding off on excess spending..though I do have some home remodeling projects I want to do in the next year... no car payments, Jeep (80k miles) and Cadillac (60k miles) running fine... will be a while before I need another vehicle (also have my sister's Equinox w/ 10k miles for around town driving). Work is going well, 5% raise for this year, got my annual and quarterly stock grants laid out for this year, company stock staying stable for now.

Yeah...I'm a bit uncertain about my upcoming flight in May to Colorado for vacation.
-
Nice...though I prefer the RS6 and RS7..

Cadillac News: 2026 Cadillac LYRIQ-V, Fastest Cadillac Ever
Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Cadillac
I like the look. Clean and subtle. I can only imagine what a mess the aftermarket could make of it. -
Maybe 2018 or 2019 I was at a lakeside bar and they had a jukebox...I remember it was September and a Packers game was on. What was playing was a variety of pop and country pop songs...I selected Pearl Jam's 'Black', Nirvana's 'Teenage Spirit' and Soundgarden's 'Black Hole Sun' to lighten up the mood with some classic grunge..

It was sad..I've seen him in many movies..great actor. Bonnie and Clyde (his first role that got attention), French Connection and French Connection Il, Narrow Margin, The Firm, Twilight, Night Moves, Superman and Superman II, The Package, Mississippi Burning, Absolute Power (with his contemporary Clint Eastwood), to name a few...

My sister had a 1st gen..it was meh.. I did drive a rental Dodge Nitro (which was based on the 2nd gen Liberty IIRC)--the exterior was painfully ugly...and was very cheap and nasty gray inside. The Daimler-Chrysler era was not a good period for Chrysler interiors in general, IMO.
-
The previous Liberty was known for being cheap and nasty inside, not a good image for a premium EV.
-
Reality is complex.
-
When the Charger EV fails hard which I suspect it will, will they offer a Hellcat version to try to get back buyers?
-
Just seems odd being named Wagoneer since it looks nothing like the much larger Wagoneer..probably part of their ill-fated attempt to separate Wagoneer from Jeep as a sub-brand...(like Land Rover and Range Rover).
-
Wagoneer S IMO should been branded as a Grand Cherokee EV, it looks to be around the same size and similar profile to the WL GC 2-row...
-
I didn’t realize they offered the Wrangler with the 3.6 and a manual.
-
I still like the Keys..at least the 1985 version I grew up in.... I still think Big Pine Key would be a great place to spend the winters.. my sister has been looking into Puerto Rico as a winter getaway for next year...Myrtle Beach was too cold and snowy this year. She just drove back to CLE a couple days ago, straight through in about 10 hrs. Sad but true.. as a native Ohioan I have no desire to live in the rural areas I grew up in. Too many rednecks and MAGAts. But there is a lot of great scenery and state parks in rural Ohio.

I've been listening to a lot of Led Zeppelin after seeing the Becoming Led Zeppelin documentary in IMAX on Super Bowl Sunday. This is still my favorite LZ song..so heavy. That is distinctive... the comment about the gas station reminds me of hearing Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive' at a gas station in darkest rural New Mexico off of I-40 at about 3am when crossing the desert void in 2017...
-
It was a sad remnant of a bygone era. I'm amazed the Queen Mary is still afloat..stayed there several times in the last decade, took the tour...so much rust and decay.
-
Jeep's forward direction in general seems muddled at this point...horrible quality and inflated prices have hurt them with many models. The Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer hasn't done well against GM's big SUVs. The WL Grand Cherokee is so bland (nice interior though). The Wrangler remains a popular but pricey novelty. And they don't have a replacement yet for the Cherokee..the last Cherokee was too close to the Compass in size..
-
My interest in sportsball waxes and wanes over the years. I've had an affinity for the Steelers, Dolphins, Browns and Broncos over the years, when I lived in those areas. The Browns have been consistently horrible for so long, I still follow them to a degree but not at rabid fanboy level. Didn't watch the Super Bowl last night, went to an IMAX showing of the new 'Becoming Led Zeppelin' documentary...great music from before my time catches my interest more than current sportsball...

30 and cloudy today, but dry. Took the Caddy for a spin, first drive since December. Went on the coast for seafood and a walk on the beach. Came home and got the Mustang out for a bit. Looking forward to Spring.

Kia News: Kia PV5 Electric Van, Making Van's Cool Again?
Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Kia
Speaking of Hyundai and Kia vans, there was talk on the latest Wheelbearings podcast that Hyundai is interested at bringing the Staria minivan here as a GM model, maybe as the new Chevy City Express (replacing that hideous rebadged Nissan van from a few years ago). Apparently GM and Hyundai have some sort of JV program in the works. -
Was over 50 today, most of the snow and ice melted…now it is foggy.
-
Spring still a while off...got these two out for their weekly startup on Saturday. Once the roads are salt free I'll drive the Cadillac some. Supposed to get to 50 today, hopefully most of the snow and ice will melt.

I'm sick and tired of 47's reign and it's only been a week. Going to be a long 4 years. For my mental health and sanity I'm trying to avoid any media involving him and his administration. Just burnt out on politics and the stupidity and uselessness of many Americans....a nation of imbeciles.
