Camino LS6

Only a politician could utter such drivel.

I'm trying to do that, but the propaganda is intense.

WOW did not know it went back that far, so all my onstar equipped auto's are tracked. Tracked? No. The data doesn't go anywhere. All that onstar does is notify emergency response if airbags deploy or certain sensors are tripped. (Someone with a 1000hp CTS-V tripped the g-force sensor when accelerating the car, prompting a call from Onstar to make sure everyone was ok.) But if you think about it... this is specifically what you are paying OnStar for in the first place. They record event data in a rolling log... older stuff is deleted as newer stuff is recorded, but only a fixed amount of time ranging from a few minutes up to an hour. All of the concern over this is prompting me to do an article on it though. Your car can be tracked with Onstar. That's how its stolen vehicle recovery feature works. Oh, and it can shut the car down. The devil here is how this might be used against an owner - the implications are obvious.

I simply despise it, and would love to see this reversed. It's just wrong.

It's just a case of function over form, a purpose-built item. From what I can see, it does what it is meant to do pretty well. And being domestic, and powered by CNG, I can forgive the looks - it is a van after all, and boxes can only be so stylish. Think of it as a Checker for the times.

Interesting.

I so hate this.

Good luck to both of you in your new endeavors.

Can't say that I care for this very much.

According to the posts on facebook, it was a Fiat. As for power... Briggs and Stratton? I think I'll stick with the Tahoe.

except for the vandalism, that blue '62 is pretty clean.

I see them here fairly often - I'd own one. And yeah, the V wagon is a collector right out of the box.

I thought so too - just not at that price!

My first question to the seller would be: Manual or automatic?

My thinking exactly... on both points!

I'm the opposite, Buicks have mostly turned me off over the years (with some notable exceptions). If they chose to create things like "David" and an Alpha coupe styled like the Avant concept, I'd start paying attention again.

Way too soon to worry about what a new El Camino may, or may not, have as far as equipment goes. On the CTS wagon, has its death been confirmed? Or are you making an assumption? That would be too bad as it is the only CTS variant that I actually find appealing.

Yeah, I know. But at least this time, the trademark is for use on a vehicle. Was that the case with Invicta?

I thought that was the case Ocn, thanks for confirming it. Still 1980 seems to be the odd year out for these trucks - almost never see them on CL with or without rectangular headlights. I did see somewhere that 1980 truck sales were drastically down from a peak in '78 on the order of 50% I guess that explains it somewhat.

It would seem so. It was trademarked as "Cadillac LTS" not merely "LTS".

If produced, your Buick "David" would be the most interesting thing in the entire Buick lineup. I think it looks great, and I hate tiny cars. Cheers! Another Cheers! for the format and scope of this article (as well as its execution).

Aren't we overdue for a visit from PCS?
