[Leica] un-believable - now off-topic and long-ish

[grduprey at mchsi.com (grduprey@mchsi.com)]

Seth,


The Buick LaSalle is a current model, which we drove a year ago, and the 
ride and performance was exactly as I described it. ? I wish it were not, 
same ride as my mom's 1992 Buick.


I am interested in the new Caddy CTS, which I will go and try as soon as the 
temperature gets above 0 F sometime next week, it is -5 F here today.
