Elvis's generosity, especially in giving gifts of automobiles to friends, family, associates and complete strangers was legendary, as was his preference for Cadillac cars. Sometimes he would test drive them himself for a few days before giving them away. Probably one of the earliest occasions Elvis gave a Cadillac away was when he gave a 1954 convertible to Sam Phillips of Sun Records in late 1955.
From then on, you never knew when Elvis would go to the next Cadillac dealership to buy a new lot of Cadillacs. You never knew how long they were going to be kept, traded-in or gave away.
