Why I currently don't mind waiting

March 1, 2012. We had only one snow event this year and it was in October. So of course I was getting itchy because the whole winter I could have been driving my 4th gen Camaro or my C5 Z06 but I sold them to buy the ZL1.

Now, I am in the mood of not minding the wait. It feels like January here!

Move south- you can enjoy your ZL1 year round.

Not a bad idea! LOL. I have been thinking of it, but then I see Hurricanes, floods, earthquakes and tornado's all over the country and there is NO place like New England in the fall. I need to hit the lotto and go south in the winter and be here in the summer!

I have ordered some BFG All Terrain tires for your car. They might rub your mudguards though.

No need, but the time the car get there, the summer supercars will be fine!

It's not that bad. A lot of it's gone already. Supposed to be near 50 over the weekend. It will be gone next week. I actually like a good storm every now and then. I hate it when we get a lot of small ones.

I agree on Lake Tahoe, beautiful area, great roads. As much I love living in south, every now and then I think seasons would be nice.
