I was looking at some nice used Camoros before I purchased my Mazda 6. The dealer wouldn't budge on price so I went with the Mazda. I don't regret the decision but it would be nice to own both.

the battery in my wife's remote for her Camaro finally died .... in looking at it, there are no external screws or pry slots to use in opening the remote .... after puzzling over it for a few minutes, I decided to check YouTube :idea: an guess what :?: .... yep they have a short video about replacing the battery in a remote exactly like hers .... watched the video twice and am delighted to say, it worked .... the battery has been replaced, hopefully it will last for 5 years ... 8-)

in June of 2020 the dealership installed a new battery in my wife's 2016 Camaro .... that's no small task, its buried in the trunk .... it will take a charge but will not hold a charge .... after being connected to a charger for 3 days over Christmas we took it to the dealership yesterday .... they kept it overnight and plan to test the battery sometime this morning .... if it fails it will be replaced .... sure hope it fails, we are only a few days from hitting the road for Texas and would hate to leave with a question as to the condition of the battery

well, she has just over 24,000 miles on her and she's paid for .. Image .. so long as they meet our needs and are mechanically sound, we tend to keep and drive our vehicles for a long time .... our Buick is 20 years old, our Trailblazer is 16 years old .... our Sportchassis is 14 years old, my Silverado is 10 years old .... and we plan to keep her Camaro for decades as well .... with my wife's family living in South Dakota we have always kept a four wheel drive and usually one other vehicle ready to crank and head out there in an emergency at a moment's notice .... the Silverado doesn't have an OEM GPS so our Garmin provides one for all of our vehicles but the Camaro .... it does have an OEM GPS which has taken some getting used to .... using our Garmin isn't an option so for the first time, we have spent the money to update the Camaro's map software .... the update took about 40 minutes and loaded smoothly .... no clue if or when we may update it again

As far as the Garmin in the Camaro goes, consider a sandbag mount. You could get one and sit the Garmin on the console forward of the shift lever for long trips. The sandbag mount keeps it stable, lets you navigate, take advantage of all the garmin features, and then easily remove 'er when the trip is over. Might work.

I considered getting a used Camero when I purchased my new (then 2018) Mazda 6. I'm happy with my choice but always wonder what it would be like to drive one. Congrats!
