      New commuter car...

      I picked up a new commuter car yesterday. I'm still on the road but when I get home I'll update with more/better pictures.

      That's why you were asking what octane pump gas the late model Corvette uses in your other thread! Nice new ride, Congrats!

      Thanks!

      Yeah, I just wanted to know for sure what I was getting myself into before I signed on the dotted line! Considering the Vette gets so much better MPG than my truck, I'll be money ahead (on gas) even using 93 octane.

      This totally redefines cutting back on the gas consumption but it really is the truth , now if my budget could just afford the problem

      Corvette, an economy car. You gotta love it !!!!!

      I guess it sounds funny, but in my house it's a fair statement. My wife's Mustang uses more gas than the Vette. The Elky and Chevelle... let's not even go there, and our F150 averages around 14-16.
      Besides, I have a problem and I refuse to seek help!

      Here are some better pics:

      Sweet. Now you need a bigger garage so it doesn't have to stay out LOL.

      Thanks.

      You can't see it in the picture but there's a third bay to the left of the Vette. Normally that's my shop area but I parked my wife's Mustang in there while we were picking up the Vette.
