    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I installed the Fumoto valve to replace my oil pan bolt. I will never have to deal with that initial blast of oil. I can attach a small hose to the valve too. I just filled my Challenger up BJ's Warehouse on Monday night. All the local gas stations have 87 octane at anywhere from $2.77 to...

    Weather channel app gone?

    I have a 2022 and never even knew it was there. I would never even use it anyway. I hate most of the new tech in these cars. I'm more of a buttons and knobs type of guy. I think Raquel Welch has something to do with it.

    A New Toy

    The only things that I modded on the truck was, tinted front windows, grill mounted LED lights and swapped out the side steps and added a hard , retractable bed cover. The trucks pretty much come perfectly set up.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I had the garage floor done in epoxy paint and the grit was added for grip. If the floor is wet, you can still slip easily and bust your ass. Another issue is, that if the tires are "hot" and you park the car. The floor has a couple of small spots where the paint lifted up and had to be...

    Does A Radar Detector Help Anymore?

    Or it was maybe for a dash camera ?

    Enclosed Shipping Options

    You now have to be very careful with hiring shippers. There are many stories out there now, where a shipping broker was used to hire the lowest bidder to get their expensive cars shipped. The truck arrives and the owner hands over the keys and the vehicle is never seen again. Only use a...

    CT5-V Does anyone have the Savage Cadillac Trunk Tail Lighting Strip?

    The hardest part of the install was taking apart the trunk upholstery, to gain access to the tail light wires. I popped the plastic SD Card mount off and broke something. Now I have the SD card plastic held on with velcro. Also the bolts holding the trunk latch were put on by a gorilla !

    CT5-V Does anyone have the Savage Cadillac Trunk Tail Lighting Strip?

    I bought the sequential signal lights that replace the lower (5BW) bumper reflectors. From Gee Gee Top on Amazon for $70. My auto electric guy installed them for $100 bucks. I would have preferred the trunk one, but they weren't around a few years ago...

    A New Toy

    Very nice !! I gave up my 2018 Colorado ZR2 so I could put 50% downpayment on my 2022 5BW. The Bison is for doing some serious off roading. I called mine the "Pavement Princess". It never went off road except into my driveway ! I am thinking about trading/selling my 2017 Jeep Grand...

    Jack Cooper Transport going out of business after almost 100 years

    They were in business for 100 years. Thats better than most businesses. Its just a shame that there is no more loyalty when it come to business relationships anymore.

    EV Thoughts Thread: cause the old farts did their usual thing

    "IF" I were EVER to buy an EV. For luxury purposes, I would buy the Lucid. Lucid has further range than competitors. What a beautiful design compared to the Tesla's and other EV's. They spent some time on the styling and interior. Realistically, I would be buying the Chevy Silverado EV...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I told my wife that I might drive the 75 miles tomorrow morning to visit my ride that has been parked since early November. I will check the weather and see if I wake up early enough to beat any East Hampton weekenders. My wife asked me why do I have to go out there and I said...."because I...

    Is this a decent price for this car?

    I have my 2022 5BW automatic, white with less than 6000 miles. Never been in any accident or mechanical issues. $75,000 is what I have found my car to be valued at present. Then you also have to add the sales tax, title and tags to the purchase. You can find a better deal with less miles out...

    What do you do for a living?

    Retired after 28 years 8 months and 13 days of being a cop. First 11 years in NYC Transit/NYPD and then 17 years in my hometown Village that paid way better than NYPD. My 2022 CT5-V BW was my retirement gift to myself. I believe I earned it.

    Phoenix AZ Is Revving Up With More Blackwing Owners

    If you got a fully loaded 5BW at less than MSRP, you scored a big victory ! Congrats ! I could just never own a black car. Too much effort to keep them looking immaculate.

    Blackwings and Watches

    I can't stand a watch that you have to do trigonometry in order to figure out what time it is. Richard Mille watches are at the top of that list. I think they are the ugliest watches on the planet that cost as much as a very nice house. These are my own collection. I do love my Invictas...

    best exhaust without tune

    I plan on getting my 5BW dynoed this spring. What parameters does the car need to be in for the best dyno results. The car is completely stock and I was just wondering what modes the car needs to be in and if anything needs to be turned off. I am also guessing that a dyno shop "should" know...

    Just say that you go by they/them pronouns and the staff won't ask you anymore questions for the rest of the course !

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    Here is an idea.....that might work. Find a new Blackwing owner who is NOT attending and use their VIN#/name to apply (with their permission) and do your submission . SM , if I recall, never really checked my ID when I signed in. It was all verbal at the desk. They asked my name and assigned...
