Default Its been 2 years.....

Since I sold my 02 Zo6 and boy do I miss it. I now have a wonderful 1 year old boy now. Picked up a 09 Yukon Denali and it runs great, but man I miss the Z06. The good thing is that it has the 6.2 liter engine, but the weight of it is sad. One day I will get back in one!

Here are some pics of the missed one.

I was in your shoes, minus the seed. I had to get back into another Z. Took some smooth talking with the wifey. Now it's her favorite car. Yours was beautiful BTW

Nice looking Z. I can see why you missed it.

Same here. I lost my mind for a while and thought I needed something different and sorely miss my Z. One of these days, maybe we can get back into one.

Couldn't have said it better.

Chin up dude. You're going to be an excellent father and provider because it shows you have your priorities straight. One day you'll get back what you gave in spades.
