Default What the hell?

Well, maybe since I don't watch football, baseball, nascar, or any other stuff I have time? Or maybe I have NO life? Ok, I've heard many reasons and ok, fine. I still choose to drive anytime I can. Oh, and btw, my insurance sez unlimited mileage. I didn't wait 45 years to let it sit. 209

Default Drive 'em like you don't give a damn what others think....

Consistently drive mine weekly if humanly possible. My 'ole lady tolerates it on a rare occasion, as a kindness to me but I don't care. Watching her get out after a drive is a treat in itself as the contortions she goes through is really quite funny to see. Saying that, I like driving it all by myself, fast, loud just like they're meant to be driven. Real men drive 427 Cobras like they don't give a...

Guys with too many toys and not enough time to drive 'em should sell them and put the money back into mutual funds...

Built my car in 2007 and now have over 12000 miles on it. Luckily my wife loves to cruise in the cobra so we just do it!
The weather here in AZ is darn near perfect...cold in the winter, hotter than hell in the summer, best of all plenty of open hwy. to go fast on.

Oh, about those "snake Bites", my wife made a couple of roll-out calf protectors out of some small welding blankets. they are attached inside the car and just roll out over the door threshhold and side pipes, no more burns.

209,

I have had a really crappy weekend and first part of the week, so I have been in a real crappy mood. The post just hit me the wrong way when I read it.

It is great that you have enough time to be able to drive yours so much and a lot of us do not have that option.

Take care and drive the he!! out of it.
