Going to take the Vette to the store, might just have to turn the heat on, never used the heater, and turn on the heated seats, it should be experience, I hope I will soon forget.
That's SO wrong yet so RIGHT on so many levels.

And if the jealous one was on the quick reply I'd add it too.

17 this morning here in east Texas. Supposed to be back in the 60's this weekend. Definitely not the coldest, but could be a lot better. I prefer 80-85. Might just have to find a winter home in the tropics somewhere.

Winter or summer, if I won't be driving my C6 in the next two days I hook up the CTEK 3300 battery maintainer.

And it was 70 this past weekend in central Oklahoma. This winter has been crazy.
