Default Your other nice ride

My Vette is my favorite ride but my 2nd ride is also cool and cost a lil more than my Vette. I'd wanna bet I might drive the most expensive ride here. I think they are going for about $750k+ now. Take a look and she drives sweet.

Hey Steve, you gonna paint the rest of your 75 the same color as that jet, or you gonna paint it all yellow again? Cool 2nd ride though. Mine is a '98 Blazer LT. Yours costs roughly 100 x more.

Drove this around the deserts of SoCal in the mid 1980's...that big ole 8 inch could reach out and touch anything....accurate as hell, of course you didn't have to hit the target, just get close!
