Default Newb from Texas
Hi all. I've always been a Z/28 guy and the last one I had was an '85 and sold it about 10 years ago. Now my wife really wants a 2000 or later Trans Am so I joined in order to get some tech info on these beauties. I'm hoping to get some knowledge mainly on maintenance but I also want to have some fun with it. I really hope to tap into the vast amount of info on this board. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Thanks! Will do. I hope to get into a late 90's, early '00 Trans Am soon.

I'm in Lubbock. Trans Ams are few and far between in this neck of the woods. I've seen several V-6 models, but that's about it.
