No decals (that is what us old farts call them) on the '14, but the '67 would not look like a race car without them.

Does anyone use the K & N HP-1017 oil filter? I use K & N air and oil filters on all of my other vehicles and wondered if any of you have tried them on your 5th Gens. I am not real happy with the...

Colorado Winter

With the mountains all around us, Alamosa, Colorado is just like living in the bottom of a chest freezer. 12 inches of snow on Friday, creates minus 22 degrees on Saturday morning at 5:00 AM.

My dealer told me to use Molbile 1 5w-30, so I do in the '14. I check it before each outing which is about once a month. I use Valvoline Racing Oil 20w-50 in the '67. There is no way to check it,...

The one car that I had I wish I had back. The '70 Chevelle SS396/454 would be my vote for best Chevrolet ever built.

Great Video

Great Video! You need to make a Camaro version of the Movie, NEED FOR SPEED and use the same actors. I am sure Aron Paul would go for it.
