Yeah, I know . . . it’s the obligatory holiday message. But seriously, as we begin our break for the Thanksgiving holiday here in the US, I can’t help but extend our thanks to those of you who come to our little blog. We stepped out on a bit of a limb when we started this nearly a year ago. Thanks for participating, thanks for tolerating our inexperience as bloggers, thanks for hanging in there through our inexact and imperfect schedule of updates.
Have an enjoyable and safe holiday!

We received an honor today that makes us feel awfully good. So good, in fact, that we can’t help but share the news.
Today, CTS was named Motor Trend Car of the Year for 2008.
This is a particularly big honor in the auto industry. We all have our different tastes for the magazines we read or web sites we visit. It’s not about that. It’s about the heritage, expertise and rigor built into this specific award. They conduct a very exhaustive process to evaluate all the competitors (check out their site for the details) -- something that we respect in particular, given that our daily job includes somewhat similar degrees of specific analysis.
It’s interesting to note that Cadillac won the very first Motor Trend Car of the Year award in 1949.
No, I wasn’t around for that one.

We don't really like to toot our own horn. Well maybe we do like it. We just try not to do it all the time.
Popular Mechanics is a favorite magazine for some of our folks - we are engineers, after all. This link takes you to their brand-new Automotive Excellence Awards.
Good stuff.
