Coming back from Camaro5fest cool thing happened on turnpike.

Coming back from Camaro5fest got to the toll booth to pay my toll on 80/90. The toll booth collector told me "what an awesome car, this toll is on me!"

I couldn't believe it, what a great compliment. I guess it does pay to own a Camaro!

A side note, the show was great, a lot of great vendors. I spent way to much money so I'm glad at least the toll was free!

Now if I could get Wendy's to give me free food that would really be something!

Last month on my drive back to Florida I went thru a toll booth in VA and the attendant asked me to, " really hit it good " as I left and also paid my toll! Needless to say I obeyed!

He was a Mustang driver. You will now receive a fine in the mail for running the toll.

My wife has been hit on in the DT lane (by a woman) when she was driving our 2011 SS. She said the girl was hanging out the window and wouldn't stop talking about the car with her and telling her how awesome it was.

Unfortunately, that never happens to me!
