Planes, trains, and a new automobile

Haven't checked in in sometime but been very busy with the house, work, and life's events that we are all going through plus cars have been more secondary with a Jeep as a daily driver replacing my 2011 Camaro SS.

That changed this weekend after my trip.

I ordered my new car in April and finally took delivery over the weekend after taking a train to Wilmington, flew to Dearborn, MI, stayed overnight and drove home 600 plus miles for less than a courtesy delivery price and had an adventure. I also got an incredible deal by stacking my college discount with gm card points for 5 figures off an in demand car.


The car is a 2015 1LT Z51 7 speed manual coupe in Laguna Blue.

This also prompted the clean out of my garage which has not seen a car inside since the early 90s which has been one of my many recent projects.

Hope to enjoy the coming months see you all out on the road.

Thanks all it's quite the adjustment to drive, but I'm enjoying it for sure. I went to Carlisle last year to confirm I fit and to see the color in person.
