Its gonna be a tough day...
Suck at Event Code 3300 on the Camaro
 ...Turning in my Dodge Ram SRT-10 in about an hr... Stuck driving a Wrangler with a broken A/C unit and a seized rear window zipper (my winter beater) in JULY with no hope of seeing my Camaro before August. A/c not working wouldn't be so bad if i could take the top down, might look into getting that repaired. I loved that truck, what a blast to drive, and what an even better "company car", lol. I feel so... so... uncool without a 1 off car with an obscene amount of horsepower... I'm just gonna look at everyone elses pics till i get mine to make me feel better... drove past a dealership last night and stopped to stare at a black 1ss for a few minutes to remind myself getting rid of this truck isn't that bad of an idea. Anyone else have to get rid of a car they LOVED to get this Camaro?

You have one of those trucks? They are crazy fast.
It's the only truck I am afraid of. |

To be honest, its straight line crazy fast, seat of your pants horsepower. It sucks other wise, its falling apart with 35,000 miles on it, belt squeaks constantly, power steering hoses leak and need replaced after few thousand miles, chews through gas even when u drive it like a baby. I had a ford Lightning before it-- it was more fun to drive because it handled better. It was a sin they didn't offer the svt in a manual. In theory, the ram rules, but they dropped the ball on the fit and finish, to bad it was so damn fun to drive. Its easier to walk away than i expected, but i think thats because with 29k miles on it, the motor took a shit-- threw a valve, busted the spring, scored the piston, fooked the head. I don't even wanna imagine what the repair would cost... 3rd gear in that truck was the greatest thing that ever happened... from 30mph to 90 in what felt like the flick of a switch. Fun Truck-- just lacks a little finish work and had a few reliability issues. best looking pick up out there tho... it turned a lot of heads. and chewed up and spit out a lot of WRX's and EVO's.

Do you have a good trusting friend with an extra car perhaps? A winter beater that is less beat than yours?
