Natalie and I put the 35th Anniversary in the garage last night.. (for good) She has officially been retired as a daily driver. We purchased a 95 Saturn SL1 from a friend for Natalie to use as a daily driver to and from work.

The Camaro will no longer be driven except in fun much less frequent situations. We are going to get a new wheel, eventually new stripes, and take better care of our baby.

We are planning some mods too [Smile]

I can understand not being a daily driver, but drive it!! It was meant to be driven. I take mine out at least twice a week for a cruise. It still puts a huge smile on my face.

No daily use for me, but still 12,000 Kilometers in 4 years. Did 2,000 going to BG and back. Worth every kilometer!

JR,
It was nice to meet you and your wife in BG. Sorry to hear about your mishap with the pothole.
I would of been in fits! F*#@ing Dept of Transportation. How much tax money do they need to waste before they fix the roads?!! [Mad]

OK, nuff bi#%@ing. Glad to hear your putting her away. Don't let anyone make you feel bad about limiting your mileage. Enjoy the car the way that
YOU want to. That's my .02

See ya [Smile]

So I guess I'm the only one left driving an LE as a daily?

Guess I better start looking for a second job so I can buy something economical....
