Bit of a hijack but I lived for a year in rural Saskatchewan and the closest I ever came to an accident was driving my white Meteor along a blowy snowy road and having a fellow with his white car pull out of a laneway - we plain didn't see each other.

When I worked for Cadillac, the Cimmaron was not a "hot" car by any means, either in looks, performance or sales. But in the last two years of the build, they were put together extremely well and with the V6 engine, made a nice ride in it's day. They also had the lowest warranty rate of repairs in the last year of production. When they finally got it right, it was gone.

I worked on a few Cimmarons early in my wrenching days. Unfortunately, the owners of those cars (At least second, if not third hand) were on a cavalier budget with the expensive electrical issues of a Cadillac. That led to them being rather junky by the time I got them. lots of the goodies didn't work, and they weren't running too well due to lack of maintenance.
Not really the car's fault, but being the glorified low budget car it was, it fell into the affordable range for low budget folks when sold used. That made the issues with them a pretty common theme.
