...home of awesome Bill Elliott and a town particularly fond of American muscle cars.

I was in Orlando on business in October and rented a '13 Camaro RS vert ($55/day - a steal) from Hertz and tooled all over central Florida and realized how much damn fun this car is. Got the bug and since then have been rationalizing how to get a Camaro into my garage.

Found a nice '11 SS vert (manual trans) at the local Chevy dealer and went over for a test drive. When I started it, it was louder than I expected, but assumed all SS's were this loud. Bought it, love it, but was curious about the awesome sound that it produced. Looking at the pipes the prior owner had installed a Solo Performance Mach XL with J-Pipes cat back exhaust. Love the sound, and it takes me back to my high school days (mid-70's) where late 60's Camaros and Firebirds with slot mag wheels and glass packs ruled the day and the parking lot.

While I'm no gearhead I did once rebuild the engine on a '71 Triumph TR6 and know enough to leave this beast to the experts. While I have as much HP as I'll ever need right now, I enjoy getting pointers from the experts on this site.

ISSUE: I am having one helluva time getting any pics to upload to my garage. I've been in the software industry for 30 years and know how to use a damn browser, but can't get the friggin page to upload any pics (no SUBMIT button on Edit Vehicle Profile page, only EDIT). If anyone knows WTF I'm doing wrong, will appreciate any advice.
