Nothing today, but I hope the new owner was in the driver's seat today having as much fun as I did for the last 7 years. I traded my C6 on a new BMW 550i MSport a couple of weeks ago.:yesnod:

Good luck with that DallasC7 - I hope it works out for you. In my case, the so-called new car sales manager flat-out lied to me and I'll never darken their doorway again. So instead of those...

I drive down to Houston from Dallas three or four times a year to have lunch with a particular client. I come back the same day. Round trip is 500 miles. Fun drive if you stay off I-45.

Yep, it's Pro-Guard. From chevron with techron additive. It's sold as a fuel injector cleaner. On special at my local Costco $13.99 for a case of six bottles.

I buy it by the case (6 bottles) at Costco. I use it every 60 - 90 days in both our cars. It might be snake oil, but I haven't been bitten by the fuel snake in over 30 years...:thumbs:
