It's known fact the ECM wears out after 200K, don't trust it.

Thanks, Sleeper, yes the bowtie will stay gold.

today is a leisurely wash and detail then off to Paris, Ontario
they have a cut off year, so I can’t park in the car show area, but I can draw a crowd in the visitors parking lot, with the after cut off year crowd.
last time we went there were twice as many cars out there, and no entry fees!

Blue- Gold bow tie looks good on your grille..

Had an all time high turnout at our local car show today, reported over 700 rides. Many also come from neighboring states as well.. Weather was excellent, 84* & nice breeze with low humidity.
There was one guy there from Ukraine there shooting pics, he shot several of my Panel, & was asking me some questions, I tried my best to understand & reply. We both smiled, so I guess it was cool.
Anyhow, Great Day for our show & club.

Loaned Oldblue to our niece, her car had a dead battery, she was impressed with its ability to get up to speed much quicker than her 2.4 Dodge Journey and it’s sound system was awesome compared to hers.
Sweetie reminded her how she scoffed at the HHR and called it a pet hearse.

Backed the SS out on the driveway so I could clean out the garage. 10 minutes later I came by and noticed that the "rodent eliminator" option was in the standby mode.
Sure wish he'd find a better spot to hang out.

Cool pic,.. If you sprinkle a lil red pepper on your roof, it will eliminate that spot for hanging out.

Drove thru some heavy down pours of rain around noon today.
Fairly new tires all around and my panel never slipped once.
