Fairfax, Va. Traffic hell. Regardless of where I go, the only thing that matters is what time it is and avoid 66 at all costs. As a matter of fact, I planned picking up the Vette in MD last week and scheduled everything based on 66 and 495 traffic. Around here, that window of opportunity is very small.

because of this forum:
My vette isn't stuck in a parking lot with a locked steering wheel
My wallet isn't as hungry due to GP's and discounts from vendors, but looking at the awesome vette mods in here you get mod fever.
lastly the vette isn't stuck in some dealer ship having a useless recall done.
