Nice wheels....just need a little horse or cow manure on the floor mats to make it feel like home...ok, well I guess that's not for everybody.

That is a very cool car though!

the fact of the matter is, as nice as her Camaro is, if I had to drive it all the time, I wouldn't have it ..... it wasn't designed for an old, stiff fellow my size .... I've learned to get in and out but don't enjoy it .... the door has to be wide open for me to do so .... once I'm in, all's good .... the seats are remarkable .... it has several blind spots but has an alert system that really works well .... backup camera is excellent .... I'd rather have thicker sidewalls in the tires but that ain't the style today

Man, that is a beast!!!

So cool!


I had an '06 Trailblazer that I found was my most favorite vehicle I'd ever owned.

as noted, we still have my wife's '05 .... early on it had some electrical gremlins .... once they figured them out, it performed flawlessly for over 10 years when we had to replace the transmission .... after reviewing its condition, the independent mechanic who handled the replacement recommended going with a new OEM unit .... since we plan to keep it, he said it was in too good condition to go with a used or rebuilt one .... if we were home and needed to head cross country, I wouldn't hesitate cranking it and getting on the road

Maureen's Camaro is a few days short of being 1 year old .... today we drove it 550+ miles round trip from our home in central NC to Asheville for a visit with my Mom in her retirement home .... during the trip she turned over 6,000 miles ... we drove mostly interstate highways with the cruise set at interstate speed limits plus 3 - 4 mph and she delivered 32 mpg .... she handles like a dream and is a blast to drive

we've made the same drive several times and the mileage has consistently been around 30 .... times have changed from the days when new vehicles required following a break-in schedule .... today that isn't the case but being old school I still believe that it .... takes a while for all of the parts to settle in .... with her now having traveled 6,000 miles, I tend to believe that her performance is pretty much at the level we can expect for a good while to come .... needless to say, we are very pleased with mpg and would love to get her to the flat lands our west and turn her loose on an interstate with an 80 mph speed limit
