Default Different personalities

Their all different. My 65 justs keeps the covers pulled over her head and is quite content. The 75 on the other hand makes her feelings known loud and clear "Gotta Have It". And of course I have to comply if I want to keep peace in the "family"

Before starting resto/mod, mine said only "Drive me" . Now it only says "Work on me" . I hope I can teach it how to say "drive me" again soon .

Mine does a 80 mile round trip commute at least three times a week.

I actually saw 3 C5's and 3 C4's today.

My car was purring the whole way, just like a BIG cat. (It didnt say much though) It did snarl and roar two or three times.

Mine laughed at me today. I decided to let the gas pump fill it ALL the way up... 20 gallons... Nearly $70 in gas. My wallet almost floated away, it was that much lighter.
