 SALES TALES: Cadillac keeps 'true luxury' title - GMInsideNews Forums
I'd like to see the stats for any nameplate that sells vehicles over $42K, instead of just "luxury" nameplates.

Littlefield, 53, who said he never served in the military because of a hearing loss he suffered as a child, is among a small but growing fraternity of military-vehicle collectors.

Vehicle Taxes consist of sales taxes and personal property taxes levied on the value of the vehicle by some States and local subdivisions as well as the Federal "gasguzzler" tax and the Federal luxury tax levied on the portion of a new-car sales price that exceeds $30,000.
The vehicles selected are intended to be typical of new vehicles in each size category, but, because of changing technology, they are probably not representative of older vehicles in their respective size classes.
Vehicle style, size, mechanical features, dependability, as well as the availability of money are also factors in the decisions regarding when and which vehicle to purchase.
