A few of us will be going to the Clear Lake show this weekend. The friday cruise part is a great time. If anyone is going, look me up. I'll be in a 96 Grandsport Corvette. There will be a guy with a black 99 frc with a drag pack on it there as well.

Sorry no midget Joel. No suv for me mine is the pickup I kept the 6.2 though. Uses as much gas as the Gxp.

How much for the volant. Josh. Does kooks also make some LT for them. 14 is about what I am expecting. Can't wait till the winter gas should be around 12 then.

Those new GMC Denalis are nice! I think if it came down to it if I stayed in Iowa, I'd get a truck or SUV as a DD because I want other toys. Now if we were all down south, it'd be nice to drive our cars every day of the year pretty much
