    Saw a Corvette ERay on display at the GM Dream Cruise exhibit. I'll get a closer look at it tomorrow. Too many cars from
    every era to list on Woodward. Lots of noise and HCs in the air. (I live 1/2 block from it). I spent many Saturdays up and down that strip in a '63 Chevy and a '67 Chevelle SS back in the '60s. But it was never as big as this annual event has become.

    I have gotten to like the looks of the Rivians. You might too.

    Ohh I was at a car show last weekend that showcased everything from trucks to exotics to EVs.

    There were 3 Shelby Cobras (not familiar with the years but 2 of them had the double fixed rollover hoops and 1 had a single rollover hoop), Mustang GT500H, a pair of 2000s Sevilles, 458, Gallardo Superleggera, a modified Volvo 240 wagon, JDM RX-7, Pontiac G8, the new Land Cruiser etc

    I realized I haven't seen my beautiful white smoke bomb in a few weeks. I see her on the drive home from work, usually.

    It's an early 2000's Toyota Avalon that's white but, also, emits a huge cloud of white smoke...especially when taking off at a stop light....VERY blown head gasket or cracked engine for sure!

    1 city, 0 highway to paraphrase.


    Saw the new ZDX EV. Only noticed it because it had an illuminated white line on the grille area. The proportions look weird for an Acura. Looks fine as a Blazer.
