As new as new can be

Hi guys,I picked up a '09 SS panel ,Red w/red and black guts,auto with all the performance gadgets.Never had one before. It seems to drive pretty well,but I can see several upgrades on the horizen.I've been a Hot Rod guy all my life so this tuner car thing is brand new to me but, it looked like the future is here and I might as well learn and participate in it.I've always prefered shifter cars and drove the SS 5 speeds but could not get comfortable(recent broken back)with them so will have to settle with a little less tg at the trans. in the end.Anyway this car only has 100mi. on it but after a couple oil changes and 1000mi. I'll start in. I've(unfortunately)got seven cars so it doesn't get driven every day. I have to admit though, it's pretty fun.Also this is my first experience with car blogs so go easy on me!But you all seem to have fun so that's pretty cool.

I don't know if I'm doing this correctly, but, here goes I've got a '87 Corvette roadster-triple black and a 1930 Model A a 1926 Ford Hot Rod a 1955 Ford F-100-tricked out - too much stuff to list.Let's see,oh a 1962 250 GTO Ferrari(replica)and a '07 jeep liberty(wifes driver)I think that's it.Thanks for asking
