I love to get up in the morning and take the vette out for a backroads cruise in the country. I need to get it back together first I guess. :auto:

Sounds like a great day to me. I may get it out tomorrow and burn the road a little if the weather will cooperate with me.

since I moved away from the vette, I do the same thing on my shadow. ALWAYS a good day when you ride/drive something you love to no place in particulars. Edit I agree, this is not off topic, this IS why we love our vehicles so much:cheers:

Any day you can just cruise around in the Vette is a Grand day.
The wife and I did that for about 7 or 8 hours Memorial Day, just cruised around with the T's off all day

Part of vet experince is finding your 20 miles out of your way home after work. The wife doesn't like the fact that my cellphone is off in the vet, I just enjoy the ride don't need to check in. :D
