Being a fan of the era of the “Muscle Cars”, it was sad to see the Camaro to fade into the sunset even though I prefer Fords. Well, I can say for sure, I would love to have the new Camaro concept car!

This is one hot looking vehicle that brings back memories of those old muscle cars of the past but with a very slick new look. The design team deserves awards for their achievement!  Very fine job!  The should roll it into production without ANY changes!

The only thing I can see that could improve the new Camaro is a high performance electric motor instead of a gas guzzler. About a year or two ago, I read an article of a high performance electric engine that could really fit into this new model. Well, maybe by the time this wonderful work of art would be in production, an electric or hybrid engine might be an option :)

Here is the GM Blog posting with video:

It has been a little while since I lot posted as I have been quite busy trying to get some work done on many of my sites.  In addition to work, we added two new members to our family this last Christmas:

And do these boys have energy, I have the wounds to prove it :)  These guys will keep you busy to say the least.  Jerry (on the left) is more of a lap cat and is turning out to be a bit fluffy, while Tom is the one that seems to have the only goal of his life, to destroy everything above waist high throughout the house. 

I baked some cupcakes the other day and had them electric range where I thought they would be safe.  A little while later I found Tom just have a good old picnic on the stove!  After that, I tried keeping my baked goods on the refrigerator as that was surely tall enough.. NOPE!  Ack!

I am just glad we got both of them together, I am not sure how we would have survived the energy of just one if it did not have its brother to wear each other out ;)
