Do what you think is best. My son who is an adult blew my 427 Fe side oiler a few years ago. It's markedly more difficult to discuss after the fact than to simply say no prior to the fact.

My thoughts exactly ;)

Let's start a new thread for everyone that wants to talk about this. In my situation the C6/C7 is considered my car. My husband and I keep separate finances except for one small joint account for house/vacation type stuff. He drives his 2004 Nissan Frontier, has conservative investment style, and cares nothing about driving a nice looking/high performance vehicle. The only times my husband drives the C6/C7: if he has to move it to get the riding lawnmower out of the garage, if I've had even one glass of wine he will drive us home, or driving home from vacation and I get too tired to drive (which hardly ever happens). In the entire 250K miles added to my C6 I would guess my husband drove about 5K of those miles. The only other people that drove my car were valets and mechanics. When someone asks if they can drive my car it's simple - my husband hardly ever drives my car so "No". If I mess up my car fine, but I would be so irritated if I let someone else drive for fun and they scratched the wheel or worse. If you want to drive one go to the dealer and get a test drive.

Now it would be different if the C6/C7 was considered "our" car. In that case I would have to be ok with my husband letting whomever drive it because it's his car too. I'm glad that's not the case.

Are you saying that you put 250,000 miles on your c6 ?

Yep. Bought with 25K and sold with 274K so technically 249K but who's counting at that point? 2008 C6
