The Corvette Commandments:
1- Thou shalt not fail to wave to a fellow Corvette owner.
2- Thou shalt not pass a fellow Corvette owner in distress without offering aid.
3- Thou shalt not feed thy Corvette budget-grade fuel.
4- Thou shalt treat thy Vette with respect; great power, great responsibility.
5- Thou shalt keep thy Corvette clean and waxed at all times, yet thou shalt not bring thy Corvette to an automatic car wash.
6- Thou shalt park thy Corvette in such a manner as to protect her tender fenders.
7- Thou shalt blow out carbon with a high-speed run as required.
8- Thou shalt not cruise on an unpaved road.
9- Neither friend, nor foe, nor even thy spouse may drive thy Corvette without first showing proper reverence.
10- Each Vette is an individual work of art; judge not lest ye might be judged.

Great list and some of the add-ons are pertinent too. However, to those suggesting that driving in the snow is acceptable, I suggest that such advice be considered cautiously. I'm not demeaning the Vette's safety features, I'm worried about the other guy in the pickup or whatever.
