What does having dog food and beer have to do with this story????

C5 is a Vette dude. At least know your terms if you are gonna try and get a reaction out of people. Which by the way is all you are doing. There are people who get it and people who don't. I'll let you figure out which one you are.

Steven345 · 08-05-2011, 10:16 PM

This is too funny.

Ladybugsmom · 08-05-2011, 10:17 PM

I was at Walmart today, yes I park in the back away from people and I shop at Walmart. When I come out there is another C5 LT right beside me. Not a space away even. Pissed me off right when I saw it, when I get closer the guy opens his door very carefully to greet a fellow Camaro owner I guess? Of course I say hi, nice car. Thinking to myself "why me". I have a 40 pound bag of dog feed and 2 cases of beer in the cart and it's 98F on a late Friday afternoon and I want to go home to start the weekend. So the guy wants to tell me how much he likes his Camaro, ya great... then he points out that my SS is dirty. I told him semi nicely that I drive the car every day and since it rained last weekend it was going on 2 weeks between washing. He was so nice to inform me that "big red" got washed and waxed and detailed everytime he drove "her".... before and after. Great for you dude but gotta go.... and not to wash my car... wash and wax the wife is more like it. before and after. LOL

Let the flames fly but come on people it is just a car, garage queen, DD, whatever unless it's special edition they are all the same. I hate to bust your bubble but there are thousands of C5's just like yours

I'm with you bro, for several reasons. Its nobody's business when or how often you wash your car or where you shop. I like the fact that your sig is just '2011' and not 2011 ss/rs/bs. etc, because it is just a car like ten thousand others. I think washing and waxing the wife is way more important than your ride. I bought a bare bones LS and I like my car as much as anyone else. Even when it's dirty! Enjoy those 2 cases and your pooch.

thebighar · 08-05-2011, 10:21 PM

The guy liked his car a lot more than you like yours apparently. were you so busy to feed your dog that you couldn't just be a decent person and talk to the guy. I stopped to talk to another camaro owner the other day and the guy was a super cool guy to talk to and not just because he had a camaro.

BigCarrot · 08-05-2011, 10:26 PM

Well the fact the Guy boasted about his car and said yours was dirty is pretty lame. Besides that sounds like nothing important enough to post a thread about IMO. Sounds like the Guy was just excited and wanted to talk about cars and was just proud of his.

this reminds me of the people that save $20-40k to buy a Harley, selling off everything so they can afford it.. then ride it every day of the year, regardless of weather conditions... they become SO consumed by the enthusiast culture

And yet, you have your model description in yours.

mcdoogle6969 · 08-05-2011, 10:41 PM

You don't wash and wax you car everyday!? HOW DARE YOU!

14pilot · 08-05-2011, 10:49 PM

This is my Camaro. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My Camaro is my best best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I master my life. My Camaro, without me, is useless. Without my Camaro, I am useless. I must drive my Camaro true. I must drive straighter that any Mustang driver who is trying to pass me. I must pass him before he passes me...
