Winter is almost over.
Spring is coming early.

I have a Camaro SS as my weekend/take the gf out/fun time car which is sitting in storage right now. For my go to winter/work/dd/all purpose vehicle I have a 2002 Trailblazer with 4x4.

I agree with anyone who has stated do what you feel is best for you because no one else is in your situation.

When I got the Camaro, it kind of spoiled me before I got the Trailblazer. Heated leather seats, sunroof, USB stereo inputs and all the fixins you could have for a car. When I got the trailblazer, I got it with your base LS pacakge. Since I got the trailblazer I've been wanting to get an upgraded on with more options.

I can't wait to say bye bye to mine. I'd really like to get something reliable. I've had nothing but problems with my camaro. I'm planning on a Subaru legacy 2.5 instead.

of course i thought about other cars before the camaro i feel in love with it the second i saw it at the dealer and when i see something i have to have it. i love the car don't get me wrong but i guess it just a case of the grass is always greener on the other side. When i go out with my friends with their all wheel drive cars like sti's g37x's and my cars just sitting in the garage it kinda bothers me, but the more i think of it i probably wouldn't want to drive my car in that weather anyway!!! fml
