Thanks a lot for the compliments on the cars and recognition on the lawn. In answer to your question it's all seed. I put in irrigation myself and do my regular fertilizing. I'm a little OCD about my lawn and my cars so my wife and kids were shocked that I drove the cars on my lawn, but I thought it would make a pretty good photo. Once I took the pics I got the backpack blower out and "fluffed" up the lawn. LOL, but it's true. PM me if you want the products I use.

Don-Vette, being you are in New York, are you anywhere near Orchard Beach? There is a car show there every year that is in honor of the 911 firefighters and policemen. I've gone with my cars several times along with a bunch of other car buddies (Vettes, CTS V, prowlers, mustangs, and my kid drove the G8). Good mix of cars at the show.

...a picture of some good ole AMERICAN muscle.

Nice looking Vette on the right side of the picture (and very well maintained property).

But as I read the above sentence about "good ole American muscle" and started slowly scrolling down into the picture (in anticipation), I was expecting to see a vintage 60's or very early 70's car.

I was bemused to see the cars referenced as being "good ole American muscle" consisted of a 4th generation Mustang and a modern era Pontiac sedan.


"Good ole American muscle" is a bygone era.
Here's a real example of the "good ole American muscle" era (although my Vette could easily spank it)...
