    Crazy Year End - Hope 2014 is better I haven't been on much lately - year end has had me running in circles. About 2 weeks ago, my wife slipped on some ice in a parking lot and broke her ankle. She really did a number (broker fibula, tore ligament, dislocated ankle). She had surgery on New...

    Electrical Gremlins Appears dead

    dim third brake light Fred, I had a problem with my third brake light lighting up - when the car was running ... it turned out to be my WINDRESTRICTOR switch was switched "on". Not sure if it will help - but I know you have a Windrestrictor as well. At least worth looking into. Good luck. Dave

    2013 XLR Bowling Green Plant Homecoming - Sept 28th, 2013

    Devin & I made it home in under 8 hours... I was exhausted, but it sure was worth it. (thanks for "holding back" on the way home, Bruce ... I honestly didn't think I'd catch up to you guys ... :chuckle... and looking at your face when we stopped for lunch - not sure you thought I would either...

    2013 XLR Bowling Green Plant Homecoming - Sept 28th, 2013

    So glad you have had safe travels so far. I'm sorry Devin and I were not able to say goodbye to you two before we left (we had to catch up to the others heading north on 65). Had a great time seeing you two again. Thanks for blessing us with BOTH of your gorgeous cars. Safe travels tomorrow...

    Gas Gauge Error

    I have the same problem with my fuel gauge ... my car has almost 185K on it ... I don't think it is from not being driven. :( My problem started shortly after I switched to PREMIUM fuel (had always used "regular" since I have gotten it - with just a few PREMIUM fill ups on occasion). I'm not...

    Gas Gauge Error

    My gauge has been not working half of the summer and that is all I do ... right now, I'm not interested in replacing a $60 part - at a cost of $2K. When my fuel gauge says a half tank, it is at half of a tank - so I stop and fill up. For long trips (like on my way to BG tomorrow night), I will...

    steering wander

    Could be a sticking caliper - that old of a car, with such low mileage, things could be "sticking". These cars love to be driven... mine has over 184K on it (its a 2005).

    Homecoming 2013 shirts & hats

    I am not working on a GOLF shirt ... only a TSHIRT design. I just do not have the time to try and secure a source for the golf shirts (I have to secure the shirts up front - cost out of my pocket) and as many people have mentioned, they are wanted a higher end polo shirt; I cannot afford to...

    The newest Cadillac Concept Car

    The Evoq was actually the concept car leading to the XLR (introduced in 1999) - the Cien was a V12 "Supercar" concept that Cadillac created to celebrate their 100th Anniversary in 2002 (hence the Cien=100 idea). The Cien was actually used in a car-chase scene in the movie "The Island".

    Start Up Question

    My '05 Base has a slight "hesitation" when I first start out in the mornings ... but once warmed up for a few minutes, then response is fine. I just attribute it to how many miles my car has (just passed 183K this month)... I know it won't run PERFECT, but with this many miles - I am quite...
