I enjoy taking people to lunch in my car. When they get in I ask if they want a ride to lunch, or if they want “A Ride ” to lunch. I don’t want to scare someone. Unless they ask for it.
One of the best parts of the “ride” [...]
It has been a while, but I got a Corvette Wave from a C6 on the way in to work this morning. Very cool.
I got my pop-up headlight fixed over the weekend. It seems that the actuator had gone out on the driver’s side. This fixed two things… the pop-up was the obvious problem. The other issue was a bit more puzzling. When I would turn on the fog lights and only the fog lights the headlights would [...]
No, I’m not talking about pop-up advertisements on the Internet. I’m talking about my pop-up headlights. One does, one doesn’t.
I have – after a long period of inactivity on this site – decided to rework everything as a blog. That will allow me to make much more frequent contributions as I won’t have to create new pages for each new article / idea that I have. I will also be converting my old content [...]
It wasn’t easy, but I convinced the dealer that my car should be fixed for free. I went back and forth with the service tech, and eventually got his manager involved. Ultimately I found out that – at least at this dealer – the service manager has some leeway as to bending the rules for [...]

Pull Key and [...]

Here it is… my first Corvette. I’ve been carrying this car around for years, just waiting for the day when I would be able to actually drive one. That day is here!
For the record, this is listed as a 1984 Chevrolet Coupe made by Matchbox. That was the first year of the “C4″ (fourth generation) [...]
Why do I call my car the “Sunset Vette”? My main hobby is wildlife and landscape photography. In fact, you can see some of my work online if you are interested. When I first saw the color that Chevrolet calls Magnetic Red II it reminded me of a brilliant sunset.
Plus, it rhymes.
And now I can [...]
