My Addiction Relapse. I Blame Chevy and My Wife. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello everyone. My name is John. Yes. I have a Chevy habit. My addiction returned.

I thought I could kick the Chevy habit. But the draw was just to great. I had my habit down to just one.

Then it happen. The wife wanted to test drive a Camaor SS. I knew it was "bad" idea. Yet I went along with it. I should have said "no". Yet the urgh was there. The second, we drove onto the lot. My right foot started twitching. I started sweating. One SS, two SS's, more then the eye could see. I paniced. I grabbed for the keys and ran for the door. Just then, the salesmen said. "lets get some plates for you". The soft leather. The rubble of the Chevy v8. It was so warm and fuzzy. I was home. I had relapsed.

Now my habit is up to three.

I hope you guys enjoyed my little story. Its sad. Yet true. My wife, god bless her, talked me into test driving a Camaro SS. How could I say "no". Make a long story short. She got her 2010 Camaro SS in victory red with charcoal stripes. I got a 2008 Trailblazer SS summit white.

I own two other vehicles. A 1991 Chevy Beretta GTZ with a 3800sc swap. And a Lincoln LS8 custom.

You need to call DR PHIL , you still have a chance to be saved , but again if she is not HAPPY no one will be and that 's not a good thing !

Congrats. The permagrin will help with the relapse. It is a good addiction.

Congrats!

Don't kick the habit if it feels good and harms nobody

Congratulations. Don't worry. Your HRFS (Heavy Right Foot Syndrome) will soon turn to PG (Perma Grin) as you are thrust back against your seat and the endorphins start flooding your poor addicted brain.
