I'm okay with this.
Apparently next year for Mother's day we're getting my mom a used CTS because prices are in the mid-to-high $20,000s for a fully loaded non-V model now.
It's becoming common practice in this house to get cars as Mother's and Father's day gifts, because the Vue was a Mother's Day gift and the Truck a father's day gift.
This also means I'm probably going to end up with the Vue.
HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles

Is the Vue a stick? I drove a 5 speed Vue one time and I didn't hate it.

6-speed auto. Not a terrible transmission though.

At least it's not a four speed.

I'm not even sure if a 4-speed was offered on the '08+ models.

If only V prices would plummet for some reason.

That would be amazing. I'd love to pick up an older Cts-V, I think it was you who suggested it. I just couldn't find any for under $11,000 so I went with the A4.

Those Gen 1's with the honda V6 were faster than they should have been for the time. I couldn't imagine that with a manual

Thats cool! I would so like that it was a tradition of mothers/fathers day to get cars. We just buy them at random through the years.

It's usually random, but they always seem to be bought around a week before or after Mother's/Father's day.

Every 5 or 6 years my parents get big gifts for each other. Next year will be 7 since we got the Vue, so a new-to-her Cadillac shall be next.
