Anybody going to trailer queen theirs home?
Is anybody going to trailer their Camaro to their garage from the dealer? I'm seriously thinking about it just because of all the construction going down from the dealer to my house. Does this make me a pansy?

I've debating it... seeing as how I'd be on 65mph highway for 30-35 miles... Lots of rocks and road rash possible in just the first hours of owning the car..

I haven't 100% decided. It's a 440 mile trip from my dealer to my abode.
Hell, I'm sure I'll just drive her home....

Are you shitting me or what? Trailer it home. You are not a car person at all. It is a great car to DRIVE. I got 500 miles on mine now and love it. It is NOT a trophy or show car. It is a car, get used to it and drive it.

I think I can drive it home, my dealers front door is 2 tenths of a mile from my driveway.
...I wonder if the transporter can drop it off at my house????
