Our alternate rides
So as I'm sitting at my desk planning out my fall/winter mods I thought I'd start a thread showing off our "alternate" rides that we use while our pride and joys sit warm and covered. For those that drive Camaro's year round, I applaud you all and can't help but remember my first Camaro (a 1977 yellow Camaro) that I drove everyday for 4 years through sun, rain and snow (I got stuck on RT 95 with this car during the Blizzard of `78 and had to leave it for days). Anyway, here's my 2013 GMC Yukon Denali XL.

Nice truck. Blizzard of '78- lol. I barely made it home from work on the N.Y. LIE. I stored my '10 SS for the first two years as I had a 2006 Impala. I found that keeping a 2nd car around was just too expensive. Between Ct taxes, insurance, repairs, etc, it really made no sense. Definitely a luxury if you can do it. I have all season tires on the Camaro and can let it sit in the garage if the weather is bad. The wife has a 4x4 Honda Pilot if the water is bad.

If my Camaro caught me driving another car it would repo itself.

Have a company supplied car for every day 2008 Impala and the wife has her year round car a 1992 Olds Cutluss Supreme SL Coupe.
Purchased it from one of the girls that works in our office. Was her Dad's car originally always garaged and maintained. All the toys are in the box for the winter till spring. Car runs like a clock
