ITs a great crusier, I used to work at radioshack in high school so i know a little about simple switches, wiring, lighting, etc.. I have recently put in strobes, green int lights and now i am pondering others. The goal is to make it look normal but with the drop of the ash tray and some darkness a fun time.

I used to call my '78 Fleetwood that too. I also called the dealer mechanic that too and I got asked not say things like that when other customers were around.

Usually just "The Caddy" sometimes "Sway"

A couple friends call it the "Pimp Daddy Caddy"

My mother calls it "Elephant Running"

When I told my brother I was looking for a Caddy, he asked "you're getting a pimp-mobile?"

I think I need a better name than that, though

I'm not good at naming cars, though. I usually call my Corvette "the Shark," which is fairly un-imaginative.

(for those who don't know, third generation Corvettes are all known as "Sharks," because their body is a derivative of the Mako Shark II concept car - up through 1976, they had the "Stingray" badging, so those cars are usually called Stingrays, but all third generation Corvettes, up through 1982, can be called Sharks)

Ok, I originally called it The Pimpmobile, but then I see that people already have it, so now I just call it "The Car."

'Trin' or 'Trinity' because my CTS looks exactly like the CTS that Trinity drove in The Matrix Reloaded (minus the bullet holes).

Actually now you can get those fake bullit hole decals that you stick on the paint, and it looks like metal peeled back from a bullit. Pretty funny when I saw it on a Cavalier the other day. Maybe I will put a couple on my better-halfs car to fool her, but then she would probably think they are real and call the cops!

I heard about those bullet hole decals and thought that was the most retarded thing I've ever heard. Who wants to make it look like their car has been shot? Maybe I don't really want to know...

those are for people who don't care about their cars as much and like a good joke. You'll see 'em on a POS car once in a while and crack up. Obviously a caddy owner wouldn't purposely put that kind of sticker on his/her car. Actually come to thing of it, I never see caddies with stickers or decals on them. ever.

I've never thought about it, but I think you're right. I can't remember ever seeing a Cadillac with stickers on it. Maybe I've never been paying attention, but I'll keep an eye out now, it'll be interesting what I find.
