Explain to me how the Camaro is in the town that I live in and I might not get to see it. This is just TORTURE.

Of course someone COULD steal your gas. But they could also steal your car, or key it, or steal your wheels. I don't think it's worth getting gas in your mouth to get a lil free gas. Even if it is $4/gal. Also, how would they know how much is in the tank? Why not just go to a gas station and pump and run? I think you're just being a bit paranoid here. It's not like you fill your tank up with gold.
Pump and run? I'd ask where you live but its the same place that I live. It has been years since I've been able to fill up without paying first.

I don't want to take anything from Heather's postings, but I wanted to simply echo her experience with the 2010 Camaro. We have VIN Number 3 out here in Palm Springs, California. We left last Friday, driving out of Michigan in the lovely snow storm, so I can confirm it does pretty well with the all season tires. Tons of attention, camera flashes at night, a few guys in Mustangs who wanted to have a "go". I haven't had this much attention since driving one of the first Cadillac XLRs to Florida several years ago, and this car may actually be surpassing that.

This car is a V6 manual and it is plenty of car. And a BIG thank you to Texas, New Mexico and Arizona for your 75 mph speed limits. This car cruises well and is even more quiet than I expected.

Also, I can confirm that two sets of golf clubs AND luggage will in fact fit in the trunk. I had my doubts at first, but it all fit.

So your enthusiasm and excitement will soon be rewarded. This is an awesome car!!!!!!!

I do not have a Camaro ordered yet, as a college student i have no money, but im hoping to get one ordered within the year and you are helping me narrow down my decision. Excellent pics, keep them coming along with your experiences.

Heather: Have you put down the rear seat yet? If you have a chance to do that, a few pictures of what it looks like down would be appreciated. Apparently there are no such pictures anywhere on the Camaro5 forum. Thanks.

As I don't think the EPA figures have been released, I am reluctant to provide a number that might just hijack this thread into an MPG debate. Needless to say that with the snow storm in Michigan, the steady climb from Ok City to Flagstaff, the temperature, and oh yeah the speed that we were traveling (remember the 75 mph speedlimit for most of the trip west), I will only say that I thought it was pretty good.

Start a new thread! I would be very interested in knowing.

Yea, definitely seeing more of that but still some around that don't. I noticed it recently at a smaller, non-chain station.
