What did i see on my drive over the weekend??
Now that i have a Camaro on order, naturally i am more observant with what other people are driving...this weekend i drove from toronto to Buffalo and back a few times, so i decided to count some cars to pass the time..
what i saw...(in about 600km of highway driving...may have missed a few) - over 20 Chargers - 1 challenger - 2 4th gens - maybe 30 mustangs?? - Zero 5th gen Camaros.... i am only weeks away....can't wait....much ..............longer |

Thought the 5th Gen's are becoming more prevalent, I like the uniqueness of only seeing a few

i like the subject here, I drive to LA. a couple times a year to see my mother, anyway over the last year I could count on one hand or maybe 6 5th gens, well today we arrived in FL. for a two week stay, and my wife and I counted probably 15 or so on our trip south from Ohio, there was even a white with red stripes one from OH that passed me,,, oh and the reason it passed me CAUSE we are in our Moter home.

There are alot fewer Camaro's in Canada than in the US. Even here in Toronto (5th largest city in North America according to Wikipedia) I see MAYBE 1 other Camaro PER MONTH. And I drive mine every day pretty much. Of course I expect this to change once some of the hibernating Camaro's come out to play in a couple months.

I like to play a game here in Orlando. It's called "sit at a red light and count the Mustangs crossing through the intersection." I think 6 was the most I've counted so far but there is always at least one.

I am starting to see a few more lately than I have seen in the past couple of months. I drove a bunch of miles last weekend in crowded traffic both ways and never saw a 5th gen. Between Louisville and Lexington and also from Louisville north toward Indianapolis. Not one. However, I saw 3 in my neighborhood this weekend, which was more than I have seen in any one weekend. (except for at the dealership).

I saw:
-OVER 9,000 MUSTANGS (no, seriously; the 2010's were EVERYWHERE today; TONS of convertibles) -4 5th gen Camaros (SIM, IOM, RY, and Black in that order; I think most were SS) -3 Challengers (2 V6's, 1 V8) -A few 4th gen Camaros -5 Ford Thunderbirds (the newer ones) -A couple Pontiac Solstices (which is weird because I can't remember seeing one before today) -And maybe a Saturn Sky (not sure what it was) Oh, and this weird Ford import. Smaller than a SmartCar and uglier too.

The last 5th gen I saw aside from mine was last Sunday. After spending a good part of the day in the hills shooting guns and killing targets with friends, I was on the couch watching TV. I looked out the front window and there was a IOM SS sitting in the street in front of the house checking out my black 2SS in the driveway. It was cool to see that.
