On the up side. I did get to replace it with the cat …… hell that is 😜

Oh, you could fit people back there? In the Camaro, I'm convinced, GM forgot people have legs.

The back seat of an F-body technically qualifies as a birth control device or you need to put children of the leg less variety in the back.

I'm pretty sure my GP can be added to that auspicious list of fastest Pontiacs.

2 tons of beached whale going downhill with only drum brakes to arrest it. Where's the podium so that I may take first place?

Ok - prove it! We need verified video evidence of you and the boss doing it in the back of your Camaro! No grunts or groans, farts or moans while doing it either. If you need an EMT/paramedic or the jaws of life to extract either of you, then my point is valid..

I have $20 on the EMTs.

You’ll be stuck so I imagine Frosty or Siri 🤣

I read a good story about this. A man & woman were in 'congess' in her tiny 70s MG sports car. The bloke did his back and couldn't move. Eventually the fire brigade were called and his extraction was impossible so they cut the car in order to get him out. As he was carted off to hospital she was inconsolable. Someone said to her "don't worry-he'll be okay."

She replied "Sod him. What am I going to tell my husband what happened to his car?"

Like having a fire extinguisher in a race car, a cell phone or a First Alert bracelet or necklace will be the best safety precautions here. Think of this as an adult version of Twister with a Camaro!
