Tough job tomorrow - Road Trip!!!!

Ok, tough job tomorrow. We need to pile some test miles on one of the 2 Camaros.

Swapped out Number 3 to another GM couple so Mrs. Number 3 and I will take 296 on a road trip tomorrow. Probably head West to Kalamazoo for some Bell's and visit the brewery's restaurant for lunch, then maybe further West to the Lake.

Try for a 500 mile day to get the CTF mileage up a bit more so your cars can go on the truck.

Just doing our part.

Yes it's a tough job but someone has to do it.

When the going gets tough, the tough get in an SS and drive!!!!!!

Will post pictures if we find anything interesting as backdrop for the car.

Oh and here is another Mustang view.

I hate you and love you at the same time. It is so confusing!

Seriously, you and Mrs. 3 have a great ride and get some miles so my car can get on the train next week.

Hey GM!

If you, you know, need somebody to drive a V6 around... To test and stuff...

You can like... email me or something.

I'll take like 1,500 a month.

Hell. How 'bout just food, gas, and toll?

The seats in Number 3 (1LT cloth) are awesome. Driving to California those seats were as comfortable as any car I've driven. We did two 1000+ mile days there and back and not a problem.

The seats in the 2SS seem just a tiny bit narrower to me in the cushion. Or my butt is a tiny bit too wide. One or the other. They have been comfortable so far, but I haven't done more than an hour or so in one sitting. We'll see tomorrow if they are as nice as the cloth seats for longer stretches.

I meant quit my job and do nothing but test the 'maro.

I'd need some kind of funding for that.

P.S. - And N3, I always mean to ask you and keep forgetting. How grippy are the cloth seats during hard cornering?

Hey Number 3, I'm in the Chicago area, how about coming down here and showing me your baby? Ugh I'd love to test these vehicles, but moreso would love to see your 2010 Camaro in action and in person!
