Its like 75 down here in Fla, I am planning to replace the H/E because she is getting heat soaked. I got to 55 for a couple of nights.

Just thought I would rub it in a little. But you have to look on the bright side the miles are staying low.

Down nov to april, Same thing battery tender, cover , at least we can look at it. when car was being built 2011/ 2012, that was a hard winter to get by.Everyday looking on line to see if there was any movement on car, asking becky to check to see what it says on her end. Then the quality control hold, that sucked. finally waiting for shipment. My 2012 #464 has had 4 track days and a full summer of fun, cant wait to drive again it will feel like new after not driving it for this long. Its hard waiting but when you turn your ZL1 back on all this pain will go away. LOL

To move has crossed my mind but at this point in life to pick up relocate away from family.................. to vent and cry a bit for 3 months or so is not too bad LOL
Well at least you drove yours. I took delivery on 12/31/12 and put it right into storage.

After being through 5 winters in San Antionio I can't believe we waited so many years to move here. Atteneded an event with San Antinio Camaro club Friday evening and drove home at 9:30 PM with top down in 74 degree temps.

I remember the decades spend in the mid west with snow/ice/salt, etc. Hopefully you will REALLY appreciate nice weather next time you get to drive your Camaro.

I know the the West Coast, Mid West and Southern guys will chime in and rub the nice weather and temp's in my face , Im just bored and needed to vent...........Hope everyone else that can is enjoying the holy hell out of thier cars
Drove mine too work today with the windows down and the music up,,,hard to hear the music over the beautiful ROAR of that motor. Bad thing was the sun was in my eyes the whole time, had to put my shades on.

Much love garage dwellers, my time is coming when the temps get up to 95 degrees and the car slows way down.
