We Texans know a great car when we see one and I can't wait to go from Dallas to the border and back to Oklahoma on our long ass highways

Once again, I love being from Texas. Most Redass state in the Union.

The Camaro SHOULD be the COTY, but anything is possible in this day and age. I swear if another Prius is the COTY i am gonna flip
