Default oops

Had a really long day at work today 7:30 - 6 running all day long with may 2 10 minute brakes all day, finally finish the day come home toss start the laundry toss in my work clothes and off I go. Laundry is done go to empty the washer and at the bottom of the machine is a toonie and my C6 FOB

So now it's sitting on a towel take apart under a light to dry off. I hope this thing works when it's dry. Good thing I have a 2nd remote



What a day

That's how I ended up washing them, the front door was already open so i didn't have to take out the house key to unlock the door. With any of the other cars you have the keys in hand to turn off the car and lock it, the vette i just push stop and walk away. Still love the car for daily driving
