Nope--the Caddy is hibernating in the garage until spring. The Magnum is replacing my Caprice wagon. It will be a driver...it uses less gas than the Caddy (city17/hwy25 for the Magnum versus 18 overall, both burn 89 octane), and the Cad is probably coming up on some major work soon (about 110K on the stroker engine--which I still know very little about internally, ~70K on the TH-200-4R transmission), in addition to me having to replace the (bent) rear axle last year.

My friend's beloved 1981 300TD needs a floorboard repaired this spring (quarters have already been done by a PO)...it's around 635,000 kilometers (still has the metric dashboard).
