Considering we both have GM Cards, she's owned/driven nothing but GM and short of a Mercury, I've had all GM's this was a bit unusual for us. I didn't really want another SUV that got around 20mpg (replacing our Bravada), but none of the American cute utes did it for us, and we still needed the cargo room. We even stooped to looking at the Maxx out of frustration/desperation (the Bravada was going to need $ sunk into it before the dead of winter). Also didn't want an SUV because resale could be squat in a couple years and I may not want it then if gas spikes. Anyhow, Chrysler had some great incentives last week and we got a 15k mile/year lease with zero down for $400 a month and I couldn't pass that up, at least not on a vehicle that invoices at $30k

Well, while we are talking about new wifey rides, we just recently picked up a new daily driver for my wife. She was wanting a vert, and we had a friend who was selling his 95 Z28. This car was being prepped to be a DE car, so it has some suspension mods and a 381 stroker LT4/6 sp. The car is very healthy, and wakes up quite a few car alarms when started in the parking garage at work. :-)

I'll post pics as soon as I find a place to post them.
