Brad: Yes, it's a bummer when I can't drive WKDBAD...worse on nice days! We needed brakes on our Trailblazer and the wife drove me around in the Camaro a bit earlier this summer while we waited on parts. Ended up trading the Tblazer for a new Avalanche, so she's been driving that since. Camaro is sitting in the garage with 8500 miles on it.

Nazzim: Get checked out to make sure nothing wierd is going on. They couldn't find anything wrong with me, just one of those things I guess. Then go get another Camaro and you'll feel fine!

We've been in the midwest and I've seen quite a few Camaros here; more than I would have guessed! A few convertibles, mostly at dealers. LATER! Mike

Remember my road trip with WKDBAD last year? Ferry to Bellingham, WA and drove to Portland, Boise, Salt Lake City, up through Yellowstone, Missoula and back to Bellingham...well, we saw a few Camaros on that trip including a Synergy Green Camaro (with Iowa plates) in Yellowstone...we chatted with them for awhile; they were road-tripping too! So, this year we did a combined work/vacation trip to the midwest to see family and a work conference. We went to a car show in Watkins, Iowa (a few miles from where the wife's family lives) and ran into the same Synergy Green Camaro! Now, that's a small world! Met a couple other Camaro 5 members too! Great fun!

Just a little hard to believe...what's the chances anyway? We just happened to cross paths twice on two years, thousands of miles from where we live! We knew they lived in Iowa, but to show up in the same town at the same time is crazy.

I get my driver's lisence back in a few weeks; maybe I'll get to drive the Camaro yet this year!

Something odd about that post...anyway, we had a Trailblazer and traded it in for the Avalanche...just time for a fresh car! And the wife wanted it. (just like the Camaro and the jetskis and the boat and the....great wife and my best friend for over 38 years now!) We're planning on doing the little old lady/little old man trick with the Camaro and drive really slow....

Ya i think so too. He said the train will derail during shipment. I think he didn't see that this thread is from 2009...lol We already got our cars like 2 years ago.

Got my license back Friday and took WKDBAD for a drive on Sunday! Wife bought me a "Happy Driver's License Day" present, a new .22 target rifle! How cool is that? I even got to drive the new Avalanche!

Sevn86 · 10-21-2011, 06:07 PM

Thats Awesome Mike!

I bet you missed driving WKDBAD. Nice gift too! You got a new Avalanche?

AK Mike · 10-23-2011, 11:59 AM

We did...and it's a pretty decent car/truck. Very comfortable (I'm 6'1' 240#) and a loaded LTZ with rear view camera, retractable running boards, sunroof, roof rack, heated/cooled seats, navigation, etc. Runs good and smooth riding. I went to the lumber yard yesterday and picked up 2 dozen 8' 2X6's and closed the tailgate, no problem.
