Stave off boredom with these pretty pictures<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bored in the house? Making sure your kids actually tune in to their virtual schooling can only fill so much time, so we\u2019re bringing you a moment of zen each week in the form of some of our most favorite motorcars from around the Turo marketplace. We like cars, you like cars, so let\u2019s look at some cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The term \u201cland yacht\u201d should be strictly reserved for describing \u201870s Cadillacs. This 1975 Cadillac Eldorado convertible is as giant and lumbering as cars come. It\u2019s as long as a modern Chevy Suburban and weighs more than a Hummer H3. If you look closely at the front and back corners, you\u2019ll see that the car\u2019s body ends, then Cadillac added even more car onto that. Even the engine is gargantuan: a 8.2-liter V8 choked by \u201870s emissions restrictions so that barely produces 200 horsepower. But behind the wheel of this behemoth, you\u2019re in no hurry anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cadillac<\/a> really was the pinnacle of luxury at the time. You\u2019d be hard-pressed to find a more comfortable place to sit. There\u2019s a couch in the back and a couch in the front \u2014 complete with a round cushion for the armrest. The interior has a generous amount of wood paneling, and \u2014 perhaps the most \u201870s feature of the car \u2014 four separate ashtrays (remember, smoking is prohibited in any car booked on Turo).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
