I just learned that Caliente meant hot in Spanish. I found this interesting. DO you know that Schwinn used to make a bike called Schwinn Caliente? There is also a car called Mercury Caliente.

Caliente bike in picture below is most likely a 1987 or a 1988 model. Just thought that was interesting!! I wonder if Mercury Caliente is a hot seller now. I've sold few Schwinn Calientes so I know that they can be sold.

No, I didn't know. But then, I'm not the expert on bicycles and turbo cats like you are ;)
