I wasn't gonna question, him...lol

Yeah, it wasn't really a full review. It does have a large trunk and under the floor of the trunk resides a close to full size spare tire and a very large battery. Also there is an SD Card Slot for saving video from the 4 cameras on both sides and front and rear of the car. It only works with a 32GB SD memory card. These cameras record every drive you take and erase the oldest videos automatically as the SD Card gets full. Behind the right side panel is a quite large computer and electronics panel. Also the trunk has a pass thru you could use for skis or similar sized items.

I agree, this RUclips mentions it will be used in the 2025 Cadillac, that caught my attention. ruclips.net/video/l1TGQa8GWsA/видео.htmlsi=J0hoe7NhBh_ewtpz

Love it, thanks!

Thanks, I appreciate that

What video is this from? I’m interested in watching the whole thing?

It's part of this video on the "V" Engines and it first was a Cadillac commercial.

@@mjdart54 That’s a fantastic video!

Thanks, being the LTA engine is great makes the video fantastic!

I've had no issue with mine and the engine coolant temps always remain controlled even in S. Florida summers. My Supercharged LT4 in my Z06 on the other hand runs much hotter than the LTA.

Based on information I've read Hypereutectic Cast Pistons offer a good solution for this application. Cast pistons also offer excellent wear and thermal characteristics. This enables long ring-land and skirt life, as well as the ability to retain tighter side wall-clearances for quiet operation. While cast piston-alloys use silicon, which increases the wear resistance, durability, and thermal characteristics of the aluminum, there is a limit to how much silicon can be utilized so it is evenly distributed without large nodes of silicon forming. This level, which is called the eutectic point, is around 12 percent. Hypereutectic means pushing this level of silicon beyond the normal amount that can be simply blended into the metal. Hypereutectic aluminum will typically have between 16-18 percent silicon in the alloy. Although hypereutectic pistons are still a cast piston, the addition of this extra silicon material gives several benefits over conventional cast pistons. For starters, the piston is inherently stronger, with increased thermal characteristics, lubricity, and scuff resistance. It is also more resistant to corrosion, has more controlled expansion characteristics, and better high-temperature strength.

I've used hypereutectic pistons before, I know what they are But still Forged would have been better @@mjdart54

Thanks, people comment frequently on liking the color when I have it out.

I agree with both your thoughts!

I owned a '13 SRX before this Traded it in with over 100K mileage, the predecessor to the XT5. The only issues I had were with the CUE Screen which I believe is not used in the XT5 so you shouldn't experience that.

Thanks, I really like this car myself!

I've understood they are, but never seeing another one in person in over 2 1/2 years in car crazy S. Florida makes me realize you're absolutely correct! Thanks

Congrats on your new CT5, great car and I'm sure it's stunning in Black Raven. Yes, mine does have the auto rear window shade controlled on the overhead console where the sunshade buttons are. As for the rear window shades they are manually operated. You actually pull them up from the door panel and the latch up just above the window on the door frame.

agreed

Thanks', I agree. The potential maintenance is scary. So far only a fuel pump control module failed and was quickly replaced. I also have an O2 sensor that failed that is on backorder. Car still runs fine but I feel fuel economy may be effected by a sensor that's stuck in a lean condition. I found the correct part online but the dealer didn't expand their search beyond the normal supply chain.

@@mjdart54 Makes sense. And if these start going bad every couple years, could be worth investing in a few spare ones? In any case, regarding the engine, has anyone done a tune to it? 550hp/640lbft is quite a lot, but still sorta...'underrated' a bit. They could probably bump that to 600-650 hp...and the torque probsbly 700-750 lbft. I just don't know if the transmission could handle it. I know Gale Banks from Banks Power owns one, and though his business is diesel engines, it surely would be nice if he started developing aftermarket parts for it. Cold air intake, tune, etc...

@@Roddy_Zeh I believe the tuning architecture is locked for tuning, unless someone has finally gotten in.

@@mjdart54 Perhaps a way around it can be found, just a matter of time and effort by some owners and tuners. Every lock has a key to unlock it, heheh 😆😁

If you're a Mid Year Sting Ray lover it was a good showroom to walk into, thanks!

Thanks John, it was exciting, I hope one day you can have that experience!

Thanks, I would consider if it was much easier. Too many hoops to jump through to get one.

I had 20% installed on side & rear windows and 70% on the front windshield.

Nice! I just bought a 2019 white ct6. Luxury trim

Thanks Dean!

Thanks “Guy”, it really was!

Thanks Dillon, I really enjoy this car myself!

Thanks! My Z06 has wet mode so by habit I call the mode in the Caddy the same, also we don’t see ice & snow here in Florida, just wet…lol It is an excellent option, I experienced it driving on a flooded skid pad at Spring Mountain Race Track, really impressive!

When I worked for GM (mid 70's to mid 80's) most of my time working was getting assembly lines up and running again when something failed. I responded and worked as quickly as possible to get the line up and running again which greatly pleased management. They in turn looked the other way when everything was running smoothly and I took a break. Now as your stated the working conditions could be harsh or even dangerous. Today companies look closely at safety, ergonomics, and other factors to improve working conditions which improves production.

They were installed by dealer, but listed on build sheet as Regular Production Option SHH 20" (50.8 cm) 10-Spoke alloy wheels with Polished finish. I have seen them for sale on GM accessories and also eBay. www.gmpartsoverstock.com/oem-parts/gm-20-wheels-10-spoke-polished-84506956?origin=pla&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9ZGYBhCEARIsAEUXITUeEQEoUY7iNb4oNLtcTTqUQicdZ_djf8U5OQFD6OwJGFX7kvw683saAlQuEALw_wcB www.maloufpartsxperts.com/oem-parts/gm-20-wheels-10-spoke-polished-84506956?origin=pla&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9ZGYBhCEARIsAEUXITWLvOkR4oAIYMQ2Kchr97nraL6aYjW4Bdnr3TSVlEjsHBgQQe1GOLMaAgXFEALw_wcB

Yes, 3 speeds, be gentle I hear cable replacement is tedious

ONLINE, Superbright LED, BA95-WWHP5 is the LED I used.

I believe I needed 10 LEDs for instrument cluster and 2 for the clock.

Thanks Jose, this is a good dream car you have! You have a good eye for cars.

I’m sure Cadillac wouldn’t have removed the wreath if they’d known it would change the appearance of the car that much.

How true on being born in America, the CT6-V was the result of finding a good job and a lot of hard work. Thanks

@@mjdart54 You deserve it, I hope you get better. 😊
