My name is Pearl, and although I joined in2014, I don't think I ever properly introduced myself, and quite honestly, didn't spend enough time checking out the forum. I am the current owner of a 2006 Monte SS, the 5.3 L small block V8, and can say it has been the best car I've ever owned in my 60 years! My late husband and I first bought a 2001 SS V6, which we loved. After his passing, I traded it in on my Black Beauty.
