Talking still amazes me...

after owning the monte for over 3 years now i'm still finding out little things about it that i never knew about.

tonight i noticed that the front turn signals alternate between the headlight and side marker. looks pretty dang cool, lol

anyone else ever "discover" something neat about your monte after you thought you knew pretty much everything about it?

ya this last summer when i was installing my undercarrage LED lighting someone from this form told me of a vent in the trunk under the carpet on the passenger side to run my cables thruough sur enough there is a vent there with a grate and rubber dampner. Ansd i have owned three montes and never saw this.

Also that the intake manifold on my 06 is made out of plastic??? Guess i am just old school when they where made of cast iron or aluminum.
