Now they are building cars that will be uneconomical to repair. Assuming no inflation, If you buy an EV for $60K today, in 10 years you (or the poor sucker you sell it to) will have to pay at least $20K for a new battery, and maybe another $10-20K to replace the mammoth infotainment screen (if they still make them) and the over-engineered door locks etc. - why would you pay almost the value of a new car to refurbish an old one (and HOPE that you solved all the problems).

We owned 2 Model S cars, a Gen 1 and 2, and now own a Lyriq. All of these cars have their strong points. I am not in favor of air suspension or AWD which our Lyriq doesn't have, although the Model S does have a slightly better ride because of air suspension. No Tesla has a luxury interior while Cadillac has been designing those for 120 years or more and the interior of the Lyriq wins hands down. The GM Supercruise is more positive, as is the overall handling of the Lyriq. Pricewise, the upgraded Lyriq was about the same as the Gen 3 Model S, so it's maybe not as value priced as some think, considering the advantages of the Model S. My wife wouldn't drive the Tesla but loves the Lyriq which has a lower front and is easier to understand.

Thank God Hoovie is such a pro already at what works and what doesn't work that you can see that by him ignoring all of April's overt sexual 'car' remarks hopefully (by reviewing) she will learn what works and what doesn't. Now..., for the positives April brings, which are many, because IMO, she does offer a lot. She impressed me with her own perspectives. I like her (obvious) female POV on what females see in cars. Very nice. She is excellent there. The fact that she is eye candy..., and knows it, helps Hoovie. I like them both, just tone down April as sex predator while keeping her in tight ANTHING(!) So, here's a suggestion: Start a lifestyle KZbin where you take April out for dinner all dressed up (that means WHITE shirt and tie for Hoovie and ANYTHING TIGHT on April). Take her out in your car of the video and showcase the restaurant (great advertisement for restaurant and sponsor bucks!) After showcasing food talk about the car! You're welcome.

I'm not a fan of the Full Glass Roof on any car since a Hail Storm 2 years ago. $1.3K not covered by car insurance. I hope the Caddy (all of them)has a Glass delete option?

[@mikelemoine4267]

It sounds like your insurance company screwed you. They know by the VIN what options the car has and they know sunroofs, pano roofs and convertibles can get trashed during hail storms. Even metal roof cars can get banged up. I had a Ford Thunderbird back in the 90s that got hail damage on the hood, roof and trunk lid in a storm and they quoted $4700 back then to fix it. I cashed the check and bought another one, and kept the damaged one as a beater for work. Nowadays, the insurance companies would just total a car with any significant damage, whether glass roof or metal. They get so much for them at the auction due to exporters, rebuilders and parts scarcity that they end up coming out ahead by totaling them instead of fixing.

Well, the main problem they’re having with EV’s is not the cars itself. I actually went to an EV charging station when a couple guys were trying to charge and the biggest problem is when you try to pay you have to go onto an app and have the time it’s so difficult to do that and then when you try to charge, the chargers don’t work or they’re not giving out the voltage that they’re supposed to and a lot of owners told me that that’s where the frustration is. It’s not really the range per se and the vehicle itself. They need to perfect those charging stations. The infrastructure needs to get better, but if you can charge it at your house, that’s the best way! So with that being said I’m holding off I’m buying an EV until that infrastructure gets better but who knows how long that will take! Now Tesla on the other hand has charging stations that are pretty much has perfected them so yeah

Of course, Tesla dealt with that one from day one. And at least so far have been close to 100% in service.

I have a CT6 sport w/supercruise and have been very much looking at the new Lyriq. I'm really close to pulling the trigger. The seats are exactly the same, and the ride is even better. The acceleration is close (3.0TT vs Dual motor version). The main thing I don't like is I prefer sedans. I admit I'm also a little hesitant for all EV. My wife has a Yukon XL for all our SUV needs, and my winter beater is a true survivor that shouldn't exist. A Buick Rendezvous 3400 with 300k and counting. Next time I comment I may just have a Blue Lyriq with the white/grey interior!

The Consumer Reports review of the Chevy Blazer EV was, "It was so terrible that I couldn't wait to get out "

The launch of that car was a train wreck

Does the Cadillac have a Heatpump A/C heater system?

[@billjohnson3344]

Yes, both of the cars do.
