You can't really blame the people for that though. Not directly.

Funny, it often works in Scotland ... maybe we just have a different way of "telling"

The 1976 Cadillac Coupe De Ville is also known for its long hood as well.

I think the hood of the Eldorado (a 1971 in the photo) is even longer...

perhaps in absolute terms, but the rest of the car is also gigantic, and we are trying to look at this subject in relative terms....see the Bugatti Royale posted earlier.

I know; I was just pointing out that the Eldorado hood is (I believe) longer than the DeVille and Fleetwood hood.

BTW, that Eldorado is big, but not really that big... it's 221" long overall (18.4 feet).

You could be right , but my Dad has a Coupe De Ville, the one I made my reference to. The car is so long he can just barely close the garage door, behind it.
