Default Re: A question for the longtime owners.

Only had my ZR-1 for 7 years, but have had my 2002 Tacoma since new. Ive been to hell and back with that Tacoma. I t boned a deer in 2020 and she sat for a couple years just doing odd jobs around my property, had multiple offers from random folks to buy even in her banged up condition, but just couldn't part with her. She' all fixed up now and back on the road, but I rarely drive her (have a Tundra daily driver). At some point the Tacome will become the focus of upgrade/restoration efforts, right now its the ZR-1. Neither one is going anywhere. The ZR-1 is my Ferarri Testarossa, so to speak, and a bit of a resue operation. Some days I just like to admire it, and driving it is a joyful experience that I doubt I could replicate at this point as my interest in the ZR-1 spans 30 years and hasnt waned. I also am original owner of several fine motorcycles from the mid to late 2000s which i like to take to shows and to the track. This stuff keeps me grounded and sane i think.

Side note Ive attempted retirement twice now and found i wasnt ready ;D

Just one mans thoughts for comparison sake .
