A True Driving Experience

Nothing can compare to the sound of a Chevy Camaro SS when you turn the key! The smooth, throaty roar is a sound like no other.

I have wanted a Chevy Camaro SS for awhile now. I looked into other cars and they were nice, but I guess I am a Camaro girl! The classic look of the car is what draws me in. While I am partial to the newer models I like the older ones too.

Until you have drive an SS you don't know what you have been missing. I couldn't believe how good it felt. After driving an Escort for a few years I forgot how much power a Camaro has. It was an experience. As I pulled out of the dealership to take the car on a test drive I was in heaven!

Yes, they are fast. Yes, they are sleek. But they are comfortable too. There is also something about having that much power, yet it is easy to handle. It corners like butter! Smooth and in control!  My husband would be the first to tell you that you have to drive it on two wheels! With my old Camaro he couldn't resist! And that wasn't even an SS.

If you want to drive a real sports car I would recommend driving a Camaro. You don't need a Hemi to have power under the hood. Trust me. You can go from 0 to 60...well I wont spoil it for you. Go take a ride in one!

So many cars have all of these gizmos and gadgets that you don't need. A Camaro is made to be driven and not lived in. You don't need a TV. You don't need a DVD player! All you need is the road and a tank of gas!

Sure, other cars are nice. Some are faster. But, I myself prefer the Camaro. It seems silly that a woman would love a car so much. What can I say?  The Camaro stole my heart.  When I got rid of my first one to get an SUV I regretted it. I thought it was impractical. I now know it is impractical not to have one!  Boys can have their toys, why can't a girl have a car with a little power under the hood?

Woodward Dream Cruise 2008

What is the Woodward Dream Cruise, you ask?  It is the most Awesome, Exciting thing....if you LOVE Cars, as I do.

I packed my kids up this year, grabbed my camera and went on the most riveting adventure of my life!  It was perfect!  I had my kids, other members of my family, my camera, and I was surrounded by CARS!  And not just cars sitting there for you to look at!  They were cruising up and down Woodward Avenue...Showing us what was under the hood!  What more could you ask for?

There were so many things to look at.  My son really liked Mustang Alley.  I have to admit, there were some pretty cool Mustangs.  I prefer the ones that Roush Racing puts out, but that is just me.  My favorite is the "Black Jack."  I would take one of those.

All of the classics were there.  Even the new models.  Ford Fairlanes, Baracuda's, Pacers. Smart Cars, Dodge Chargers, Dodge Challengers, Trans Ams, Firebirds, Ford GT's, Mustangs, Customized cars, even Harley Davidson Motorcycles....just to name a few. 

We even saw some cars that were totally redone inside and out with Cherry wood.  I kid you not.  I have never seen anything like that before!

Then we came across the Camaro's.  We saw the classic Z28's, the classic SS's.  Then we saw the 2000-2001 models.  Of course, I love the newer models, but you just can't beat the classics!  Try explaining this to a 15 year old boy!  He wasn't buying it!  But I was in heaven!

At the end of the day, 85 photos later, my kids were done.  They had seen enough!  I cherish these memories with my kids, and although they think I am crazy because I love cars so much....they will appreciate it someday...they say otherwise, however, when I pull up in the driveway with a Camaro and they want to drive it...They will change their minds!  I guarantee it!
