A king’s wheels

Krewe of Sobek King Lester Rainey just retired from General Motors after 31 years. ("I was in materials and logistics," he said.) He signed on with the company in Baltimore, Md., worked there six years and came to Shreveport when the plant opened in 1981.

So what does he drive?

"An XLR Cadillac, a two-seater (hardtop) convertible," Rainey said.
