I suspect when Chevrolet built this car, then figured buyers would know this when they clicked the ‘1LE’ package in their buyers order. Want a great, road friendly car.. buy the regular ZL1.

100% agree with these two. Racecar is going to drive like one. You give up comfort for times.

I'm local to OP if his location is current. Roads are perfectly fine around here even on 3R's. No complaints.
