Ruby was joyfully, my daily driver for the first 2 years. She drove me through a lot both in terms of weather and life experiences. She kept me safe and served as my therapist through, hard rain, snow, storms, my mother's terminal illness/death, my sister's house burning to the ground, my dad's altzheimer's & eventually having to put him in assisted living...................................thank goodness for Ruby and my C5 family for getting me through that very rough 2 years. Here are a few pics & links to threads with some examples:

Somewhere between all that my Elite engineering oil catchcan got installed & some other bling:
At the first oil change after installing the catch can: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=188868 MCCC & CKCC Year in Review thread with some great pics of events I somehow missed starting a separate thread on: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=189590 Like the Ashland City, TN Car Show: Horses & Horsepower show, Louisville, Ky: More nice pics from te Somernights F-body event: Meguire's Show & Shine, Oak Grove, Ky I got to take my dad to that one: More great pics from the Payne Chevrolet Camaro Homecoming And How could I forget the Camaro Chrome Show. Weather kept some folks home, but those of us who attended had a blast! Ruby win her first award! But of course Ruby could not really compete with Black Beauty & Turleylox who took the big prizes. as well as some great events Ruby was not able to attend & some pics of us just hanging out at events like this one: (How many MCCC members does it take to put up the banner? Answer: 4 one to work & 3 to supervise. LOL
