Default Today's Chuckle

Today I was topping off my C8 with gas as I was on my way to winter storage. A guy driving a Cayman walked over and gave the car a once over and said that the splitter was too low. With that,he did an about face,got into his Porche and drove off!
Ha,ha,ha.

I plan to use my non Z-51 all winter long here in Colorado Springs. But the exception will be if it is snowing.

It get’s terribly hot and humid here, but for the next two weeks at least, highs in the 60’s and 70’s. Love my HTC.

Sounds like the Porsche guy was kind of being a jerk. Jealousy is a bad thing.

The Cayman is not the SUV, that would be the Cayenne.
