NEW Z51 and NEW SNOW-BLOWER THE SAME DAY

carnut52 · 12-15-2013, 11:43 AM

In an earlier thread I mentioned that my new LB vert arrived on Friday at Rodgers Chevrolet. Friday night we got our first big snow of the year (5 inches so far and still snowing). Had to spend Saturday shopping for a new snow-blower . Its a Craftsman 24 inches with a big 4 cycle engine ( not sure of the HP). It has great traction in the snow unlike the Z51. Luckily there were no constraints on this model so I took immediate delivery. There aren't any carbon fiber components so it is a bit heavy and cumbersome in the turns but no understeer. Overall It was thrilling to clear my driveway so my new car can now sit in the garage until April. The paint looks good too. Torch Red with black wheels. I didn't like the chrome ones.

Pic's coming soon. There is a crowd around the snow-blower. I'm not sure if they are admiring it or trying to steal it

I'm sure the Torch Red and black wheels look super on the snow blower, but what color scheme did your Z51 come in? Ha ha

Look at the earlier post for BeckyD at Rodgers. She uploaded some pic's. It's LB Z51 3LT vert with black top and interior. Red calipers, chrome wheels, and CF dash. Hopefully take delivery Monday or Tuesday
