    This is a beautiful modern Library. It actually looks newer than it is. It doesn't look like it'd…read morebe more than a couple of years old but when I asked the librarian she said it was built in 2002. It's kind of out in the boonies with nothing else near it but a lake that looks man-made. Inside it is absolutely beautiful. The restrooms are very clean and include a baby changing area. There are lots of books which I unfortunately couldn't check out since I don't live in town. It isn't the friendliest Library for a stranger compared to others I have been to. I carry my smaller eBay items with me when I travel and needed to come in here to print a label for a rubber stamp I had sold. I had to go through a bit of a rigmarole and pay a dollar to be able to use the internet either on their computers or on my personal phone. I went ahead and paid it but I have to mention that very few of the libraries I pop into when I travel charge to use their computers or their Wi-Fi. In fact I can only think of one other, in Indiana, and the last time I went in there they did not charge for it any longer like they had 5 years ago. I was able to get my jobs done and the printing charge was nominal, 15 cents per copy, so my total was only about 90¢ for everything I wanted to print out. If I sell anything else on eBay I suppose I will be back again but it kind of cuts into my meager profit to have to pay a dollar just to print a label out.

    Being a native Texan, I had heard of this place my entire life. This was even before social media,…read morewhen the stories traveled. Being a native Texan who moved to Colorado in '99, I had driven by this place for years, going from home to home for holidays and other occasions. Finally, I took the turnoff. I don't guess I really knew what to expect when I arrived. There were cars parked along the road, running up and down a field with a paved path leading to an open plot. And then, they were. 10 cars buried at a steep slope, dripping in puddles of color, stand stark in the West Texas flat, dry dirt. It's weird. It's hokey. It's one of the most Texas things to ever be in Texas; I love it! If you like roadside attractions, this is totally worth the turnoff. If you're driving to or from Texas to Colorado, just do it. It's a fun solo excursion. It's a fun family excursion. There's something about adding to the paint and joining the living history of paint upon paint, upon paint. Only in Texas...

    Do NOT believe these fools giving this place 4 stars. We were driving from DFW to Colorado, so this…read moreplace was literally on the way ... and we were still irritated with the detour. All the pics that make Cadillac Ranch look 'cool' are super zoomed in close-ups. It's 10 car-like blobs buried half way into hard-pack dirt and windy AF. Do not make a special trip here *unless* you are already in Amarillo for some other reason. Seriously.
