Soon to be in a garage close to me: Placed the order today!

After getting all 3 clean, it was time for a picture and I thought I'd share it. Our Silver Flare 2021 coupe along with our 2013 427 Vert and our Cadillac CTS V Wagon. Flare is a NCM deliver Vette - April last year. The 427 Vert was dealer delivered June 2nd, 2012. The V Wagon was picked...

Okay, A couple of weeks ago, my 2021 Corvette was approaching 7000 miles - time to consider getting that first service done which includes the DCT filter change. I make an appointment at my favorite dealer service department and decide to wait (the service writer said that the DCT filter change...

I have a new ride - or at least my wife has a new ride. We took delivery of a 2021 Corvette at the National Corvette Museum Monday. Silver Flare, 3LT, FE2 with nose lift,

Since most of us are in "stay home" or "lockdown" mode, my wife decided I needed something to do beside watch TV. So, yesterday, I washed, clay barred and waxed the Tuna-Sport and Speed Wagon. C-Magic car wash soap, Clay Magic clay bar (fine), C-Magic Wax and C-Magic Detail Wax. I'll finish...

Howdy, I wanted to give the Tuna Sport new tires before Caravan and they needed to be All Season, spending 10 days on the road, it's almost guaranteed to see some rain somewhere. Michelin had teased their Pilot A/S 3 + (ZP) for a couple of years but they didn't have them in my size - 335/25/20...

So, how long should the MagRide shocks on a C6 last? My dealer says mine are damp and need to be replaced. I have 59,000 miles on my 2013 now. The dealer also says ~ $3500 to replace all four. That sound right?

My wife and I were on a VIP tour of the Corvette Plant yesterday that was arranged by the NCM. At the end of the plant tour, there is a small work area just before going back into the foyer. Inside that work area was a camo C8 sitting just a few feet away from us. There was also glass between...

Does anyone hear have a straight answer on when the C8 will be unveiled and when it will go into production? I thought it would be unwrapped at the Detroit show in January but now, it looks like later in 2019 because of teething problems - electrical problems. Anybody?

Took a little trip down to Midland, TX last week to see some Chaparrals - ones with big engines and big tires. Most of Jim Hall's Chaparral 2 cars that still exist are on display in the Permian Basin Petroleum Museum. They are kept in running condition and every so often they pull one out and...

The exhaust on my 427 Vert decided to go loud yesterday and stay that way. The fuse was blown so I replaced it and the new fuse promptly failed. Tried another, same result. It's at the dealer now. They tell me that there is a short to ground in the wiring and they're trying to run it down...

Anybody still use CB radios other than truckers (assuming they still do)? I found a Cobra 40-channel walkie-talkie in my closet recently that appears to still work except that I can't hear anyone to talk to.

The "Tuna Sport" hasn't seen much driving over the winter. What with temps below 50 and Pilot SuperSport tires, I usually leave it in the garage. Well, Spring has sprung (I hope) and car show season is starting. So, I pulled out the Tuna Sport this week and cleaned it. Here's pictures to...

This morning, my wife and I got in the 427 Vert for a club road trip. When I tried to start it, the engine spun over for about a second then stopped and it make a series of loud clicks with the lights flashing with each click. I tried the start button a couple of more times and got the same...

I've abstained from joining all the social media and professional media sites until recently. I joined LinkedIn and a few of the groups there in hopes of making contacts that might create buzz for my novels. I still refuse to "FaceBook" or "Tweeter". Since my new "profession" is writing...

Got mail from GM today with a Notice to remind me that my C6 has manual door release levers inside between the seat and the door opening. This Notice was VIN specific, so I imagine that everyone with a C6 or C7 will be getting one so that they don't die in a car they can actually get out of...

Over the years (years ago), I collected Dale Earnhardt, Sr. stuff and I've got more DE Sr stuff than I know what to do with even though I haven't collected NASCAR or DE Sr stuff in years. I'd like to let someone else have the pleasure of owning some of my DE Sr stuff. I'm not an eBay or...

Howdy, My '13 427 Vert is in need of new tires and I'm not finding any Michelins to buy for the rear. I'm looking for the Michelin Pilot Super Sport ZP or the PS2 ZP but not finding any for the rear. I can get Super Sport tires for the front but not the rear. The 427 vert uses the same tire...
