Default 49 degrees out

Left work at around 8pm tonite. Vert freshly washed and waxed and the triple black baby looking good. Top down heated seats on and heater a cranking, outside temp was showing at 49 degrees. Had about a 55 mile trip home from Stone Mountain to Acworth, Ga. Took the back way no interstate just lots of stops and starts. I loved my c5 vert but this bad boy is just awesome! Crisp cool air blowing on ya and just having a ball in traffic, in and out lane changes with the tunes cranking. This car makes working for a living worth it. Hope my little excitement in life wasn't to long to read. Life can be awesome at times. See ya!

I know the feeling I drive from Woodstock to around Charlie Brown Airport everyday and love every shift of the MN6 and Corsa Sports, the stopping and starting, Life is great.

I can sure relate...

I now always take the long way...

No short-cuts.

Wished I lived further from work.
