covetsthesun - I know you like the big Cadillac's. You may also want to search for a Buick Lucerne. I drove both a DTS and a Buick Lucerne in the 2008-2010 time frame. The Lucerne had a great ride, and came with the 3.9 engine.
I also love the 2014 CTS Sedan. Not so plush, but a great driving/riding car. (I could give you a great deal if you can convince my wife to drive a 2016 Colorado CC long-box diesel!)

Much of the newer lines are not comfortable to me. I might be interested in a Colorado if it had great seats. I'm very partial to 8 way or 10 way power seats with lumbar. Due to some very nasty car accidents, heated seats are a real blessing to me.
We've been looking at older vehicles that are less expensive to use as a daily driver. I'd still like something that is road trip worthy as well.
thanks
