    Time for a new radar detector?

    Depends on which states have reciprocity. IIRC, CT has reciprocity with NY but NY does not with NJ and PA does with NJ but not NY. That was decades ago & things might have changed since.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Installed rear mudflaps I got from eBay. It was a complete set including the fronts but I didn't install them because I like the OEM minimalist ones in the front.

    Quick Jack for 2024 CT5-V BW

    Where did you source the roller-thingies for the QJ? I've done a search & the only ones I can find go for >$300. I can't believe adding simple casters would go for that much.

    Time for a new radar detector?

    My V1 Gen2 has not failed me except in Instant On situations. It's even given me a Laser alert from 3/4 mile away once.

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    Jason with Radiant Red 5BW. Was great speaking to you again when we ran into each other at Ace Hardware yesterday. I forgot to give you my contact information. Since I had my truck and not my 5BW, I wasn't able to take you for a spin to show you how the Soler Throttle Controller makes things...

    Jacking up your Blackwing

    This is what we used to do at my friend's shop specializing in Miata but didn't need to bother with the pinch weld pucks. Only needed a piece of 90 degree steel welded to the bar on either end to fit the pinch weld into. It worked very well but a Miata is significantly lighter than a 5BW so I'd...

    "Service instrument cluster" warning

    I get this warning every few 10k miles. I'm currently at 56k miles. I got it (again) the other day while driving. I dismissed it & it came back approximately 2 weeks later. I dismissed it & it hasn't returned in the last 1k miles. As far as I can tell, there's no rhyme or reason for the warning...

    CT5-V Blackwing Extended Warranty Pricing

    The OEM "bumper to bumper" warranty expires at 4 yr/50k miles & the "powertrain limited" warranty expires at 6 yr/70k. I wanted to extend the bumper-to-bumper warranty. The closer one gets to 50k, the pricier it gets to purchase even though the extended warranty doesn't take effect until after...

    I forgot to update here: I got my extended warranty from Mac Mulkin Cadillac on 8/21/2025 for $4,500 with 46,866 miles on the odo on a '23 5BW. (I currently have 56,560 miles on the odo.) Based on recommendation here, I got it from Todd Sutherland (todds@thompsonauto.net)

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    You can purchase the vinyl at any hobby store and cut to fit yourself. But you can also get them precut from Amazon or eBay. There's also this company that sells a swatch so you can get it perfectly color and material matched to your interior - Sunvisor Solutions - Automotive Label Covers...

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    I've seen a few at local C&C & always drool over them. I remember I was instructing at an event at VIR ~10 yrs ago & a newbie brought his CTS-V MT wagon. I didn't have him as a student but made sure to meet him & give him a big thumbs up! If Caddy were to introduce a wagon BW, I'd put in an...

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    Met you yesterday & your new '26 5BW at the Cars & Coffee in Fuquay. You here? Meant to give you my info but the rain made me run away. Wanted to talk to you further about the Soler BT Throttle Controller, the door puddle lights I have & the blackout sidemarkers.
