What’s it like to drive 140 miles without touching the throttle, brakes or steering wheel? And is that driving or riding? Tom Voelk drives from Seattle to Portland on …
Tom, been enjoying your videos for years. See you are close to 100k. I want to help you out. Dirtfish. That's right, I said Dirtfish. Google it. (It's right in your backyard). You do a video on Dirtfish, and boom, 100k easy. (Also, will be the most fun you've ever had in a car. I recommend at least the day class for you, or squeeze them for a deal on the 3-day class since you will bring them tons of business)…
on 0:07 makes me feel sad. Tom is absolutely one of the best car journalist that I have ever seen. His channel is super underrated. Perfect point of view, no pressure length of video time, and no unnecessary extra information, only keep the goodies! When I first seen his review back to 2017, I thought he must have million subscribers already because the quality of work! Keep up the good work, Tom! Thank you!
Thanks so much for doing a deep dive on the semi-autonomous features! It's really important to understand the pros/cons of the various systems—and it's hard to get a good sense of the limitations during a quick test drive (our local Toyota dealership let me go all of one exit on the freeway).
It's especially useful to get the insider info that Cadillac will offer OTA updates. Other companies don't offer this, and it's good to know which vehicles will get better over time (and which will be stuck in the past). Thank you!
Loved the review, especially the ugly sunglasses 😎. That is a sharp looking car, I’ve always wanted a Cadillac…but ended up with an Odyssey that I am very fond of and is rock solid…but if I could afford a Cadillac… thanks for the smiles and making Tuesday my favourite day of the week!
I really enjoy the autonomous driving features in my Mercedes, although it does ping pong a bit more than I would like. I do agree it makes long distance driving, and even stop and go traffic much less stressful. I can't wait for this technology to get to the next level!
Great review of the Super Cruise. My wife recently acquired an E450 Wagon with Merc's autonomous driving features. I was skeptical at first, you know being a "driver" and all, but the system has won me over on long highway drives. We pulled off a 350 mile interstate drive one day, and while the system on the Merc requires a hand on the wheel, it did all of the driving. I found it to be more relaxing than most highway trips.
I'd love to know how you wound up with a Cadillac ELR. The reviews were lackluster even at launch and it seemed wildly overpriced. I would never have guessed you owned one. Did you win it?
