Road Trip Pic
Took a short 250 mile road trip yesterday. Didn't actually go anywhere, just put the top down and enjoyed the drive, going where the road took me. The Vette performed flawlessly as usual. Here's a pic I took by an old barn.
If it wouldn't have rained, it would have been a much longer trip!

Great picture.
I wouldn't call 250 miles a road trip though.
We go on lunch rides longer than that.

Thanks for all the compliments. And Rolla...if it weren't for the rain....the trip would've been much longer!

Car looks great. One more + for the wheels.
250 miles is a nice ride. I went for about a 350 mile yesterday, but no pictures. Mine was just a get there and back not just a pleasure cruise.

Awesome rims! That is a clean car also. I'm bound to take a trip this weekend, and I will just point the car in a direction and just go.
