CSA-Camaro Anxiety Separation
Baby's been sitting in the garage for the past few days. Never realized how much I enjoy driving it every day until now when I have not been able to. Got at least 2 feet of snow where I live in NJ. Shoveled the driveway for at least 2 hours, and I am gonna make an attempt to drive her out should be interesting!

Same here.. luckily though it looks like its melting away fast so I think it might make sense to wait it out till the roads are bone dry minus the snow and salt before you remove her from the garage. |

My car has been sitting for 3 days, waiting for the roads to dry up after the snow.

CSA or "Camaro Seperation Anxiety" is commonly seen among Gen5 owners. Those afflicted mention having mild to severe reactions to any amount of time disengaged from some form of activity with their Camaro. CSA sufferers often find themselves outside of work on break looking at their Camaro if not taking their entire break in their Camaro. They go outside in the middle of the night to check on their Camaro. If they are without their Camaro for too long they begin to have a bout of CSA.
CSA is often coupled with COCD "Camaro Obsessive Compulsive Disorder". Aside from endlessly repetitive behavior like DDD (Detail, Detail, Detail), and constantly picking imaginary specks of dust from carpeting, seats, or headliner, CSA/COCD sufferers find it hard to remain silent when others enter the shrine that is the Camaro. These hard line cases are often caught inflicting suffering on others who have committed such heinous CACs (Crimes Against Camaros) such as buying/eating fast food within the interior of the Camaro, scraping one's feet upon the door sill of the Camaro, touching the camaro with fingers leaving fingerprints, leaning against or over the Camaro or touching anything inside the Camaro. Especially terrifying are the episodes whereby the sufferer of CSA/COCD allows another to actually drive their Camaro, triggering a bout of PSFBS (Passenger Side Foot Brake Syndrome) which speaks for itself. One immediate way for the CSA/COCD afflicted to find relief any time they find themselves feeling the pull of CSA is to engage in HRFT (Heavy Right Foot Therapy). HRFT causes immediate release of endorphins causing the individual to experience PG (Perma Grin). For those of you who live with someone who is or if you are afflicted with CSA/COCD, you are in the right place. We understand, and support you. |

As long as I can go downstairs into the garage and see that the Beast is OK. I'm good.

I was kinf of jalous
Here in Montreal we always had tough winters and storage for our beloved baby is a must. I was kind of jalous of all of you est-coast guys to be able to drive you baby all year long. But for some reason you'r getting the s?it that we normally get. At this time and for the last 10 days I could have been able to drive my Cam5....and you people can't, at least for a while....the world is really getting weird.....Be patient warm wheather will be back very soon for you, but I still have to wait until next march to see my baby.
Here is an example of what we got in 2008-2009 |

Mine has been put away since November, I go out in the garage occasionally and look,
and think about better weather to come... Its not as bad as the 10 months it took to have the Camaro delivered after placing a deposit with the dealer |
