Default Concern For My Southern C4 Brethren

I'm here just to show my concern for my southern friends, who may or may not be experiencing some snow and ice. I am deeply concerned that your C4 cruising time may be temporarily put on hold. Now word has it, there may be one individual here who is experiencing the phenomena as we speak, and being the better man, I unselfishly offered up my advice, drawing from my years and years of experience in this field instead of laughing at his stressful predicament.

Now after offering said advice, I was greeted by some dark and threatening overtones, but keeping a stiff upper lip, and refusing to indulge him at his level, I soldiered on, brushing his hurtful comments off. I vow, I will continue to advise and aid all that ask or need me in your time of crisis.

In summary.................................................I'm here for y'all

Yes, it is unfortunately true that we seem to be experiencing an unusual weather phenomena at the present time, but rest assured Kittah, it is merely temporary.....and when we dig ourselves out, plan on having Saran Wrap over your litterbox.

Absolutely, also make sure you spray the water into the wind, then go stick your tongue on something metal, you'll love the feeling

Looks like a white Vette would blend in right on the weather we are experiencing.

Charlie, that makes you the Vette owner of the day.

But Casper is having issues with the power steering - it does not like the cold just like you mentioned Pete.

I dont k now what the F is wrong with these Vettes. All C4s I had and hace turn into sh*t with cold weather.

My Z28 was an all weather car. That thing was awesome. The only bad thing was the tires; those Gatorbacks were glued to the asphalt but on the rain they evolved into surf boards.

That's because you didn't get the Canadian package on yours.

Leg pulling I can deal with, it's the other "pulling" that might freak me out
