Camaros burning gasoline is like...

Pork and Beans
Mustard and ketchup
Biscuits and gravy
Toothpaste and toothbrush
Amos and Andy
Cheech and Chong
Rum and Coke
Beavis and Butthead
Cake and Ice Cream
Cheese and wine
Grits and (fill in the blank)- I'm in the South.

....you get the point. A lot of food references....going to get lunch now.

Through a mine field, covered in broken glass and punji stakes, while barefoot and blindfolded.

Someday it will change. And it will probably be faster and better in every way. Except for maybe sound.

According to http://www.worldometers.info/
We only have about 59,936 days left until full depletion of gasoline.
That's approximately 164 years, 1 month and 5 days.
Average life span is 70 years of age.
Which means in about 2 more (Human) generations, you may not see a Camaro on gasoline anymore.

And there you go. Got to face reality.

Too much of what I like about it is the sounds and the ability to tweak them and work on them. Just wouldn't be the same.

Your thoughts, comments below, thanks:
Heresy! We need to burn this tread fast!

I'm just looking forward to nuclear... if a Nimitz- class AC only needs to refuel once every 20 years, then, even assuming very spirited driving, I would think that a nuke Camaro should go about a thousand years before needing to hit the pump.

Then some titanium tires...
