Man, you guys are a hoot! :rofl:
I'm 71, have zero complaints re getting in and out of the car. I'm not a clean fanatic. I park the car wherever there's a space.... I've got 600K miles in Corvettes in the past 23 years. Daily drivers all. I resolved the seat bottom problem for $65 at a custom trim shop. For heaven's sake, these are cars, not some kind of holy relic or exotic being or entity... they're massed produced production-line things that are replaceable... People drive MBs, BMWs, Audis, Jags, etc.... and treat them like cars....not fretting whether the neighbor's car passes gas near their well-shined fenders or spotless wheels... I've got 102,000 on this car, looking forward to the next 100K miles....:party: Leaving on a 5,000 miles road trip February 1. Will park it in hotel parking lots, Costco, Walmart.... wherever... Oh, and if I spot you along the way, no matter what generation Vette you're in - no matter how far out at the end of the universe you've parked I'll wave! :yesnod: |
The GS tire repleacement costs! :eek::eek:

The removable roof panel. I don't ever take it off. Wish chevy gave the option to have the non-removable like the Z cars.
|
The quality of the cheap plastic interior.

The crazy feeling that it has to be clean to be driven

The weak Bose radio.

Having to go to the Dealership for warranty work.

The lack of a cancel button for cruise control on that archaic "GM stalk" design. :D

I agree with most of this except the replaceable part. Some of us don't have bottomless pockets to just go out and get another one. That's why I think some of us baby them more than others. JMO

Tap the emergency brake handle (up) very lightly... will shut the cruise off without cancelling the settings... don't have to tap the foot brake or anything... the EB is electronic as is the cruise... interrupts it. It's the only way I generally interrupt the cruise function as I drive with it most of the time.....

Creaking roof even though it's been pretty quiet lately
|
Yearly tire changes. Its time again:ack:
|
Ass holes riding on my rear in traffic! They all think they're NASCAR morons I guess. And every pin head who wants to race usually in their Acura SUV or some other POS. :rofl:
|
That trip to the gas station, where I usually get a compliment on the color/condition. Although I really do it for me, it makes the detailing work even more worth while.
