Is that your "grocery getter" Marc?

Mine's nothing special. It does have less miles then the Vette though. It seems to get more garage time for some reason. Maybe gas prices have something to do with it.

2001 Silverado. 37,000 miles.

I liked having these 3 in the garage at the same time. Unfortunately, that didn't leave room for the wife's vehicle, so I sold the Marauder. Great touring car.

A Vette and a Cadillac XLR go well together since they both have a LS1 . You can drive the Vette as a sporty car and the XLR as a luxury version and not lose any engine power.

Nothing fancy like most of you. Just a 2002 Avalanche, 1990 Pontiac GP which was our first car we bought together and my wife's 07 Saturn Outlook. The Pontiac and Slotcar share the same bay with the lift.

Nothing I own stays out in the weather.................not even this
