OK, I couldn’t resist...
Mid-50’s today & low 60’s tomorrow with clear skies & the snow is melting. Called the insurance company & told them to put it back to full coverage.
Drove about 20 miles after filling up from 1/4 tank to get the old gas out of the lines with a few fun romps on the way back. Got to play with the lever shift that I didn’t know it had till a couple weeks ago. Just like my manual valve body C4 with a quick silver, only with over 3 times the gears. I’m in love! Gas is now $3.18/gal. now. Can’t believe I’m saying it, but I miss 2020. Well, the gas prices at least. |

I was very tempted to take mine for a romp today. I have a feeling we are gonna get hooped even deeper and drier with the rising gas prices.
Car looks great GT |

Z looks good gtfoxy! Wish mine was that clean. Pollen starting now down here in Georgia at least for a month or so. Yeah I agree about the gas price increases and are sure to get higher before the summer!

2 months ago I was getting Hi-test for 2.69 in my area. I passed a shell today and saw the price of 3.79. What an SOB!

Im pretty worried about the future admittedly. Both in terms of fuel prices and automotive performance. I am hoping the after-market stays around long enough to get my cam, headers, hi-flo cats and catback for my 6th Gen. That and my Fab 9" for my 4th Gen Z28

Paid 3.59 for 93 today. Up like 70 cents from the last time I filled. Crazy.

I typically try to get her out a few times over the winter months in "ideal" conditions, to slosh some oil and move some fuel. I will be doing more of just that, after the latest service at dealership. Testing so far has been positive... It got so bad on track last year, it became a total waste of money, and complete frustration. I came to accept it was going to be a strictly street driven vehicle. Then, the gremlins were getting rowdy while just DD'ing. I have a good feeling this time after the dealership visit though!! More driving will reveal if this was it!!

Gonna try to get mine out this week. Been sitting in garage since December. No excuse for it. Just been too busy, too lazy, plus nowhere to go because of kungflu.

I am thinking of bringing mine out of the Garage here soon. When we filled up the Subaru on Saturday I noticed premium 91 (no 93 in my area) was sitting at 2.95 it will probably be over 3 bucks here soon. Thankfully Kansas and Missouri seem to always be below the National average on a daily basis and I am Thankful I still don't live in the Northeast part of the country. The Subaru runs on 87 so we only had to pay 2.50 per gal on our shared daily driver until next fill up anyway.

Nice! I was thinking about getting mine out, but I might wait a bit longer yet. The roads have quite a bit of sand on them still...that and I have to put the insurance back on, polish/wax, AND put the interior back together..LOL.
