Electric Caddy coming in August.

Griff · 06-27-2020, 09:34 AM

Not really for me but I would think Cadillac drivers would go for it. Now produce an electric CJ-5...

xoxoxoBruce · 06-27-2020, 09:06 PM

That's a 4 door crossover for anti-soccer moms.

Diaphone Jim · 06-29-2020, 11:52 AM

Didn't that thing sell last year?

xoxoxoBruce · 06-29-2020, 11:23 PM

It's achieved the status that it will never be driven again just pasted from investor to investor.

xoxoxoBruce · 06-30-2020, 12:04 AM

A very rare woody. Because they cost twice what the 2 wheel drive version cost they didn't sell many... then they rotted away.

Griff · 06-30-2020, 06:21 AM

Still, that's pretty rock and roll.

I saw a Woody in the wild when I was a kid around 1980 or so. It was parked near a beach in California. The wood panels were all bleached by the sun and it was pretty beat up.

It was parked on the little Main Street of this tiny beach town north of San Francisco. I wonder what town that was?

May need a clue, but not too easy.

glatt · 06-30-2020, 11:16 AM

I definitely need a clue. I don't remember.

Gravdigr · 07-01-2020, 02:38 PM

Google don't know about it.

Mustang wagons...

Speaking of Mustangs:

They are still at this, setting new records for Covid-19 Cannonballs.
That is one rental I wouldn't want to buy.
For every hour loafing at 70 MPH, plan on one at 146.

I wonder if this guy ever heard of Pierre Levegh.

Lots of people died on racetracks, nobody had been hurt and no serious accidents on a Cannonball Baker Sea to Shining Sea Memorial trophy Dash.

Diaphone Jim · 07-02-2020, 11:15 AM

Bruce: My point was fatigue. Going 140 mph on public highways is dangerous enough without the perils of sleep deprivation we have all experienced.
In 1955 Pierre Levegh decided to drive the whole 24 hours of Le Mans by himself (no co-driver) and it contributed to 80+ deaths and 100+ injuries. They prohibited solo runs after that.
I
don't know how it is certain that there have no wrecks, injuries or even deaths with the current apparent increase in current attempts.
