Maybe the one remaining attraction to my native state is year-round classic car / motorcycle operation and outdoor activities. Raining today (wettest year since 1983) but in the 50's. Had a GTO out last week as well as the 'vette. Everything has been in bloom for the past month.

I feel you. I bought mine in 2008, drove it nearly 1000 miles per year for the first 5-6 years, then my left knee got the arthritis. I don't think I've driven in 200 miles in a year since then, just too painful. I really should sell it, but it pains me to as it was the "dream car", and on the rare occasion I can drive it, I still really enjoy it!

The roads here are still covered with salt, but we are expecting some rain later in the week, and maybe I'll get it out next week for a short run.

Have fun!

I put 135 miles on my C5 convertible last year. I would love to drive it more, but every time I tell my wife I'm going to town she wants me to pick up feed or hay or something else that won't fit in it.
