Greater location Tailfin Pass, Carburetor County, Route 66



Cadillac Range is a large north-to-south mountain range with many fin-backed jagged peaks that extends through Carburetor County. Radiator Springs is at the right edge of the range and it is in a rural area.

History

As described in National Parks-style signage at Cars Land:

How was it formed?

The Cadillac Range was formed when the westward-moving North American Plate collided with the eastern-moving Pacific Plate. As the plates crashed in this busy intersection they buckled, which caused the mountain range to form at the contact point. Four thousand feet below the Cadillac Range are the oldest schists and gneisses of this region: the LaSalleous and Eldoradomorphic rocks known as the Coupe Group.
