We have a pretty good domestic mix in our club. Yes, there were a couple of GNs, Impalas, and even Ford boys in the cruise.

Mixed events are OK because they allow you to show how much better a C5 is than the competition. At the same time, we've got some really nice 68 and 69 Cameros running around here that are really sharp.

Just don't park next to a Ford and you'll be OK.

BTW - tried to launch your video and it locked up my PC big time.
