| 1133553 | 2010-09-03 02:26:00 | They are that! Think outrageously large and expensive Cadillac in a really beautiful paint job, 24K gold trim (dealer option only) and every possible option that you can imagine inside, outside and under the hood . Automatic parallel parking Anti-tailgate/collision/accident prevention Sonar system Wander-Lane control (sees the white lines) Rear-view/side-view closed circuit TV Automatic running boards for in/egress Eight-zone heating and air conditioning, with keyfob memory for multiple drivers . Keyfob entry/alarm system . Keyfob interior settings for seat positions, pedal height, steering wheel tilt and mirror settings . Back-up radar and automatic collision/back-up brake application Never-Flat, self re-inflating tires and adjustable tire pressure from driver's seat . Anti-Roll ABS and PAS system 10 . 1 theatrical sound system . WIFI & BluTooth Onboard DVD and webcam, multiple pop-down screens for passengers Heated/cooled seats - ALL of them . Auto-tint side windows, electrically opaque'd All the airbags you can conceive GPS and On-Star constant telemetry Centralized 'light-generator' for all lighting via fiber optics . (Optional at this time) 12,000 lb towing payload Supercharged & Turbocharged Diesel optional - not in California Supercharged & Turbocharged Gasoline engine aspiration, 89 R/M Octane only AWD, no extra charge More things than I care to mention at the mo . I will NOT be buying one in deference to youse guys needing some petrol for yourselves next week . I think the gas tank holds 50 gallons or more, but my Blazer holds 38 gallons - so there! Here's the Edmonds' Sheet on it:: Lovely - but not my cuppa . Yeah, but will it go without a push start Joe? Ken |

| 1133555 | 2010-09-03 04:01:00 | Automatic parallel parking ?? how does that work?? Never drove a car with that option - but you pull up to the place you need to park, parallel to the next more forward vehicle in this case and it automatically backs whilst steering and finally settles itself into the space all by itself . Kinda kewl - huh? |

| 1133556 | 2010-09-03 04:06:00 | Yeah, but will it go without a push start Joe? Ken It's not a moped! I think you can push it to NY and back and the engine won't turn over once. It WILL, however smoke the tires for a few city blocks! Trust me - I've seen them run. Modern automatic transmission aren't built with a rear pump the activate things inside. The rear pump - if it had one - would have run off the output shaft as it turned with the wheels/differential/d-shaft, etc. my Blazer holds 38 gallons - so there That would cost you nearly 300 bucks to fill up here in Upsidedown Land Joe (did i calculate that right?) It's an Imperial Gallons verses US Gallons verses Liters and such and so far counting by tens isn't one of my biggest talents - and converting them even less so. |

| 1133559 | 2010-09-03 05:44:00 | Automatic parallel parking ?? how does that work?? Maybe a fold out helicopter type rotor comes out of the roof and you can hover the car to the side of the kerb. :) |
