Or, a more likely scenario: There’s one sergeant on the PD that had his 1988 Caprice overheat on him back in 1996. So now anytime the temps get over 100 he makes the the patrol officers pop their hoods if they’re sitting on a scene. The patrol officers all know its BS but he’s the sergeant, so they just roll their…

I love that over the last 20 years Cadillac has improved to the point where the biggest knocks against them are niggling and subjective.

I suspect GM went with the V6 because pushrod V8's are still viewed as too blue collar for luxury car buyers

No, god no. The diesel block had huge main bearings, thicker cylinder walls, and higher nickel content. The 5.7 diesel small block is ~100 heavier than a 455 Olds big block (and no, the Olds big blocks were not the same casting as the small blocks with different internal machining).

This is NASA normal budget level. They just told NASA to goto Mars and gave them $500 million to do it.

The first thing the horse I rode did when you saddled him was inhale inflate like a balloon.

Well, there’s this one country. See if you can guess who it is. ;)

My biggest gripe with cars is that the basic processing power and software is YEARS behind computers, and there’s really no reason for it other than car companies being CRAP at making software.

No. Daimler sucked the life out of them and sold the rest for scrap.

A) Most states don’t have an inspection of any type.

start letting things work themselves out with market forces as this tends to produce the best (but not perfect) outcomes for all concerned.

Because then come re-election time every politician that voted for it will be swapped with opposition ads about raising taxes.

However, I think the long term future for us will Private land and racetracks etc.

(Uber and Lyft ARE taxi services, period. Any other description of them is purely marketing bullshit)
