Time to go...

Well guys, after 4 years and 70k miles i made a choice to trade in my Camaro. I was given a great offer of nearly $15k even considering the check engine light would come on and off for not having Cats. After needing over an hour to get to and from my job multiple times due to snow, and mind you my job is 4.1 miles one way on roads that only get plowed once or twice per storm. And then havingg to leave the car with my wife and god forbid there was an emergency with our 2 year old, they would have no way of gettkng anywhere. So i traded and got a 2012 jeep liberty. Most importantly i wanted to thank all you guys and ladies for all the help and advice youve given me. Ill keep up as much as i can and look forward to seeing the 6th gen camaros and hopefully ill get myself another Camaro in the future. Maybe a 50th anniversary when they come out :-)

Thank you Camaro5!!

Was going to say the same thing! Probably the 4th or 5th time I've seen a post close to this!

But farewell Camaro10LT!!!

Best of luck to you, but I can't imagine the loss of fun you'll experience between the 2 cars.

I don't get why, our compass, even when mashed to the floor, can barely get out of it's own way.
