Are you looking for a good used car? You want style and edgy looks, don't want to look like a dull or grim fellow? I have a suggestion. Look at the Cadillac CTS. A real nice car, solid, sporty, good handling, a nice ride.

People who drive BMW's and Mercedes test drove the CTS and were completely surprised that a Cadillac could be so good and an unbelievable value. It is one of those cars where the jaded critics rate it 7.5 on a scale of 1-10, however the owners rate the CTS 9 or 10 pretty consistently. You can get a low-millage 2003 CTS in good condition in the $10,000 to $13,000. price range.

The CTS came out in 2003 the replacement for the German built front wheel drive Catera. The Catera in my humble opinion was an underrated vehicle and it may have been a mistake to put the Cadillac badge on it. The 2003 rear drive CTS is rated highly and in the subsequent years the CTS just got better and better. The owners love them. The 2003 CTS came with a 3.2 liter V6 engine in rear drive and a 5 speed manual or Cadillac's first 5 speed automatic transmission. The automatic was the same transmission GM provided to BMW for the 5 and 7 series minus the manual shift gate. The Cadillac CTS competes in the near luxury automobile market with BMW 3 series and the Mercedes C class. It also competes with the Infiniti G35 and Acura TL. I like the idea that access to Cadillac service and real Cadillac auto parts is so easy.

My first drive in the CTS was while I was driving the Infiniti G35 regularly. I won't knock the G, however I was impressed with the build quality of the Caddy. I was asking my self " why couldn't GM do this years ago?" I am not a professional driver. I did not put the car through its paces as a professional, but I did a good drive and test, accelerating and braking and turns at speed. I was impressed and so was everyone with me, BMW drivers in the mix were equally impressed. At the the time I said "I'd take the Cad."

Standard equipment starts with four wheel anti-lock, disc brakes, traction control, front and fear head air bags,front and side curtain air bags. 16" wheels standard, Major Options; 5 speed automatic transmission, express open sunroof, heated front seats, Bose audio system with 6-disc CD changer, CD based navigation system HID headlamps Premium paint; garnet red or white diamond, split folding rear seat. CTS Luxury Package comes with 17' alloy wheels, includes 8 way power passenger seat, memory seat, electrochromic inside reaview mirror with compass, wood trim package including wood-trimed steering wheel, door handles and shift knob, audible Theft Deterrent System, and 3 channel Homelink Garage Door Opener.The CTS Luxury/Sport package includes all the features in the Luxury Package plus; sport calibrated suspension with rear leveling performance brake lining and speed sensitive steering, and Stabilitrak 2.0, 17" cast aluminum wheels p225/50vr tires. Very nice.

When inspecting a prospective CTS look at the automatic transmission, check the fluid, the steering solenoid, electrics, and HVAC system. See to it that it all has been serviced and you can verify it yourself.

Top Ten Trucks for Towing

American car buyers have always been fond of large vehicles such as pickups and SUVs. For those who love the off-roads, the pickup is the best choice. The wide range of choices for pickup trucks can often lead to confusion among car buyers. Not only are pickup trucks numerous, they are also offered in different variants. For example, for General Motors pickup, not only do they offer different cab sizes or different lengths of bed but also different suspension settings.

But there are attributes that truck buyers look for in a truck that is instantly obvious - for example the towing capacity of a truck. For serious off-road drivers, a truck’s towing capacity is the measure of how good the truck is in real life off-road driving. Forbes recently ranked ten of the best trucks for towing to help truck buyers chose the right truck.

Coming in at first is the International CXT that is developed by the Navistar International Corporation. The CXT is currently the world’s largest pound and has a very impressive towing capacity of 40,000 pounds. The sheer size of this pickup truck is evidence of how much weight it can tow. While this mammoth of a pickup truck looks like it will pass for a commercial truck, one need not have a commercial license to drive it. Impressively, the tough looking CXT is available with a luxurious interior that is complete with plush leather seats, black walnut trim, and a dropdown DVD system for entertainment. It is, of course, obvious that the CXT offers adequate interior room especially with its rear bench which can be folded down. The CXT has a price tag of $120,000.

Number two on the list is the Ford F-350 Super Duty. The truck’s towing capacity is rated at 19,200 pounds. While significantly smaller than the CXT, the F-350 is the largest of Ford’s Super Duty lineup. Along with the rest of its siblings, the F-Series is the best selling lineup of vehicles in the world for more than 25 years. The F-350 is equipped with features which complements its superb towing ability. The truck uses a special transmission with a gear ratio selection specially designed for towing. A telescoping outside mirror also allows drivers to look around trailers. The F-350 comes with a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $23,525.

Ranking third on the list is the GMC Sierra with a towing capacity of 16,700 pounds. Similar to the Ford F-Series, the Sierra is also a lineup of pickup trucks from General Motors’ GMC brand. The toughest of the family is equipped with a massive 6.6-liter Duramax turbo diesel engine. While the Sierra is known for its power, it also offers a luxurious interior for some of its variants. The Crew Cab Denali version for example is equipped with a Bose luxury seven-speaker system and a DVD player with a seven-inch screen which folds down from the ceiling for the entertainment of backseat occupants. For its power and luxury interior, the GMC Sierra starts at $27,340.

Number four on the list is another truck from General Motors - this time, the Chevrolet Silverado with a towing capacity of 16,700 lbs. The Silverado’s popularity is evident in the fact that it is the best selling vehicle of the Chevy brand. Similar to the Sierra, the most powerful engine in the Silverado’s lineup is the 6.6-liter Duramax turbo diesel engine. True to the Silverado being a close relative of the Sierra, it is also offered with the same Bose sound system and a rear-set DVD entertainment system. The Silverado has a starting price of $24,485.

Ranking number five on the list is the Dodge Ram 3500 with a towing capacity rated at 16,400 pounds. The most powerful engine available for the Ram is the Cummins 5.9-liter turbo diesel engine. The company claims that their Cummins 600 is capable of delivering, as the name implies, 600 lb-ft of torque for superb pulling power. The power of the engine is complemented by its reliability. According to Dodge, the engine needs a major overhaul after 350,000 miles. The power produced by this reliable engine far exceeds that of a car equipped with a K&N cold air intake system. The Dodge Ram 3500 comes with a starting price of $47,605.

Next to the Ram on the list is the smaller sibling of the mighty CXT - the International MXT with a towing capacity of 16,000 pounds. Compared to the CXT, the MXT weighs considerably less at five tons while the CXT weighs 7.25 tons. The MXT features a cleaner exterior styling but still exudes the same aura of power that the CXT has.

Number seven on the list is the redesigned Toyota tundra with a towing capacity of 10,000 pounds. The redesign of Toyota's pickup shows that they are ready to take on the Big Three at their own turf. Since its introduction, car experts have touted the Tundra as an outstanding redesign but needs more in order for it to become a strong contender to the pickups produced by Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler.

Ranked eighth in the list is another Asian pickup - the Nissan Titan King Cab with towing capacity of 9,500 pounds. This is another effort by another Asian car manufacturer to be a strong contender in the pickup truck market dominated by the Big Three. The Nissan Titan has a starting price of $23,400.

Number nine in the list is the Cadillac Escalade EXT with a towing capacity of 7,300 pounds. While the Escalade has been known for its luxurious interior its powerful engine is enough to land the Escalade at the ninth spot of the top ten trucks for towing. With a wide array of luxurious features including a Bose sound system and a DVD entertainment, towing has never been more in style. The Escalade EXT comes with a starting price of $54,430.

The number ten spot is occupied by the Hummer H2 SUT with a towing limit of 7,000 pounds. The H2 is currently the leader in Hummer’s lineup and carries on the Hummer tradition of being a superb off-road vehicle with god towing power to boot. The H2 SUT starts at $52,230.

i wanna hook up my car audio without changing my stock radio. im thinking about getting component speakers for the front but i cant find any tweeters that would fit where the stock ones are and pluse i dont want crazy base i was thinking on the lines of 300 watt rms sub ( MTX TR5512-44 ) and the the amp im not to sure what one to get but im just gonna use the C2A-GMS to connect the aftermarket amp to the stock amp. is that a good idea? i dont wanna go to crazy i just want it to sound clear with slight base can anyone give me any good ideas or advise please

Take a look at the JL Audio clean sweep. It is a nice line level converter that will allow you to keep your factory radio, but add after market amps and speakers. It also has a line in jack for an iPod or any mp3 player. They are a little expensive, but when it's all said and done... they are worth it.
