    70 is great, 75 with no humidity is a warm day. I prefer about 65, as I don’t sweat just walking around.

    Not sure if all GM vehicles have these. My WS6 had RPO codes. I might still have the window sticker somewhere too. I had also found websites dedicated to some very specific info about the F-Body, such as how some f-bodies had LS1 parts from the Vette due to shortages, and how many got those parts.

    Can always put on more clothes, pretty sure folks will not tolerate me running around naked, as is if not at work, I’m shirtless and in shorts for 3 seasons of the year.

    The hot stretch this past summer, folks described me as frosty the snow man in the summer.

    Copy that.
    I can bundle up, but, it affects my ability to work, and there are no gloves available that keep fingers/hands warm, AND allow the dexterity I need.

    Conversely, I can spend 14 - 18 hours in a 110+ engine room, and be content.
    However, I have spent more of my life in HOT climates.

    One advantage here, over Texas, is the riding. Nice twisty back roads. But, not being able to ride 5-6 months a year, kinda negates it.

    I wish I could ride more, I pushed it in 2017, still rode the bike to work into November. This year had issues with the clutch, so I parked it early.

    No, when I met up with himh neither of us had heard from from you yet. Didn't have my phone handy, or I would have shot you a text
    BUT, I will be passing through his town tomorrow, and if our schedules line up, more than happy to snag it.
    Plus, I will be rolling your way this weekend
    Let me know..

    To many, but never done
    Try under armour thin gloves...they work well with big gloves and u can take off the big gloves when you need to for dexterity while keep your fingers toasty.

    Also @Chasespeed , this might be taking it a step further than you want, but my wife had bad issues with circulation and her feet and hands staying warm in cold weather, started doing acupuncture and it's made a huge improvement in that, along with a few other things. Might be worth giving a try?
