What else are you going to use when the wife says gallon of milk, loaf of bread, a dozen eggs, and step on it? Happy wife, happy life, right?

Come back when you have a photo of hauling lumber, wood chips, and fertilizer...then we will be impressed.

That's not what cars are for and why they make trucks.

I took mine to the beach and carried fishing poles and sandy beach chairs. I guess I'm crazy for thinking it's just a car.

I like going to the grocery store. Another chance to drive it. By the way, how are those Publix potato chips?

It's not where you go...it's where you park.

Mine has been to a Walmart for groceries a few times but this WM is basically in a bedroom community for a Fortune 100 corporation so it isn't your typical Walmart. And I always grab one of the decorative end slots with the trees/shrubbery where the car is in a very wide slot with its nose and one side protected.
A couple of weeks ago I parked it in this same town near my favorite coffee shop and was followed by a teen on a skateboard. He came up and introduced himself and asked if he could take some photos of the car. I told him to bring his mom or dad with him sometime and I would let him sit in the car and he asked me if I could hang around a few minutes because his mother was only a couple of blocks away. He texted her and she quickly showed up and he got his wish of a short ride in the Z06. I congratulated his mother on raising a very polite son.

frequently use the car for grocery-getting...have met other vettes with same idea...
first warm-ish day of late winter and all vettes eager to get out
met this grey z07 and pulled aside, causing shoppers to stare
