Do you guys ever drive the family car for a week straight then pull the Vette out of the garage and it's like..."Holy Sh*t do I love this car!" Then you drive it as much as you can? Ever done that? It just makes me realize how special our Corvettes are. Ever get that feeling....or Am I just weird?

Ah screw it...it's Sunday and its raining here in Vancouver, Im going for a spin!

The stepside is one of my favorites. I really like the 1967-70 stepside.

I also have too damn many cars, every time I see the insurance bill, I whine about selling a car or two, but I never do.

'06 Toyota RAV4 - driven by my bride
'04 Ford Explorer Sport Trac - my daily driver
'97 Volvo 850 sedan - driven by my 18 year old son
'93 Olds Delta 88 sedan - driven by my 16 year old daughter
and of course, my '85 2-tone blue Vette
