Good morning!

So, it's impossible to not feel the pain at the pump.  (Unless your daily driver is an EV!)

Of course, California has it the worst - LA worst of all.  Plus with midterm elections coming up some politicians are starting to scramble.   

Some crazy stories are linked below.  Check out this

video of a 

Silverado getting tossed by a tornado

 - then drive away.  

If that makes you want a Chevy truck -

I know a guy

.  And am happy to hook you up! :0)

Finally, the car shows.  Support LA's finest by heading out to the

Vintage Iron Car Show in Cerritos

this weekend.  Also, many more shows are linked below.

Drive on,
