The smile will become permanent it is the first symptom of MOD fever, you are on the way now. Look around at sigs and see how badly you can become infected.

Hi Ericthewolf -

After 20 months of ownership and 17.5K miles, I/we are still smiling!

My mother in law (72) even loves "the little blue one", and she giggles like a little kid when I take her for a ride in it.

Enjoy and drive the heck out of it!

Have you seen many other Z's in your area? When I was up there I only saw one vette (red C5).

BTW -
Watch out for the old 61 going to Two Harbors - they are doing something to the shoulder and it is all muddy just outside of Duluth -

best regards -

mqqn

Besides having a permagrin, it is pretty darn nice driving by another owner, and they acknowledge with a smile and a wave too.
