    Sat Morn in Calif

    What time do they open? I can be there in an hour (if there aren't any cops on I-80). :-)

    New driver in the household. How much did your insurance go up?

    Do you actually think I contacted MY insurance agency? I learned that lesson the hard way a few years ago!!! I know it says you are supposed to, even when it's not your fault, but unless the other driver is uninsured there is no way I am going to even hint that something happened. BTW I hope...

    New driver in the household. How much did your insurance go up?

    Well you-all have given the bad news so I'll tell a little good-news story: my younger son, who will be 18 in January, last year bought his first car (all by himself), a '74 Jeep Wagoneer - "Old Yeller" ;) (it is school bus yellow). After sinking $3000 into a new motor and 6 months in the...

    TPMS "issues"

    My tire pressure sensor does the same thing, and from what I can tell (bought the car used), it is the original wheels and tires. When I drive on the freeway, after about a half hour the "service tire pressure monitoring system" warning comes on and the right rear tire presure reads "XXX"...

    Anyone Live in FL that might let me ride with them?

    Go ahead - tell them Pinky sent you. Maybe you can get back the week and a half (plus) my local dealership wasted of MY time!

    Thinking about selling my Camaro SS for a C5

    SWEET. Get a Carfax report before doing anything. While a lot of people here only use their Vettes as weekenders, mine is a daily driver. Plus I like to take it for long drives on weekends. I could see putting 80,000 miles on it in 6+ years, easy. They would be 80,000 FUN miles!

    Thinking about selling my Camaro SS for a C5

    1. My '98 Vette, which I just bought, wasn't much over 19K (cough 8 grand over cough), with 25,000 miles on it. I'm sure it can be done. I get better than 17 mpg which is 90% stop-n-go around-town driving. 2. It's usually not the car but the driver. :D p.s. GO FOR THE VETTE

    99 Wheels- keep them or change them?

    OK, this is going to sound like a dumb girl question but...if you can put 18" wheels on both the front and back, why does the car have 17" wheels on the front as stock? I think I could use that extra 1" to keep from scraping every driveway, culvert, etc. etc. etc. I drive over. Signed...

    Don't care for the body paint job...but LOOOOOVVVEEE the under the hood paint job! If I had that I'd probably drive to a different Jiffy Lube every day and ask if they'd check my oil.

    1998 Torch Red Convertible for Sale!

    I assume you mean 98. Sounds just like mine - except I have a few more miles (most of them put on since I got it 4 months ago!) :lou

    Let's See Stunning C5 Photos

    Bonneville Salt Flats, August 14, 2006. It was over 110 degrees. Believe me, the heat was stunning.

    Me either. I do like the 19" wheels though. Signed, Size DOES Matter :D

    I have been contractually forbidden (aka marriage vows) to buy another silver car. I had a silver RX7, silver Mazda turbo 626, silver T-Bird...those are the ones I remember just off the top of my head.

    Just when I was getting partial to the Black Beauties! Unfortunately black is not an option here where there is an average of 340 days of sunshine per year. You'd cook faster than a chicken at KFC inside one of those lovelies.:(
