Purchased my Riverside Blue 2020 2SS A10 this past Monday. I only have a few weeks before the snow flies up here so I doubt that I can get it broken in before the long winter nap. So far I'm really glad I bought it.

CONGRATS on the ride, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5/6. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives', husbands, girlfriends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

First and foremost, "Welcome to the Forum"! Secondly make sure you get that beauty put away quickly.

One of several memorable rough experiences I have experienced in life was in Northern NY.... Buffalo!

Back in January of 1977 I was conducting business on West Huron Street, Buffalo when the radio was talking about an oncoming major snow storm in the next several days. Growing up in Maine I "thought" I was used to snow storm.

I was suppose to fly out of Buffalo on either a Thursday or Friday, wrong all flights cancelled. Second option was to get a rental car, wrong major travel ban in place, third option grab a hotel/motel/inn whatever, wrong nothing available. Ended up stranded in an office in Tonawanda.

Winds at 70 MPH, 100" of snow, drift that were 35-40 feet in places that believe it or not actually "covered telephone poles and wires"! Cars stranded every where. I believe several individuals met death by freezing in their cars.

There was one bit of light during this tragic even, the owner of a liquor store next to the office I was at was also stranded. We had a ton of snacks and plenty of drink!

The travel ban was not lifted for about one week! So... when in the Niagara, Erie County area and they say a blizzard is approaching, take it seriously!

Yes Buffalo can be nasty. I am in the eastern part of the state in the corner where NT, VT and PQ next. No where near the snow that Buffalo gets but winters are long and cold.
