Well
I am not sure if I figured it out the same as you did, but I do believe I
found what it has to do with Chevelles in my mind.
I
think it has everything to do with Chevelles. And a whole lot more! This
country was founded on and holds dear freedom above almost everything else. We
have even been known to spread a little around and fight for other's freedom
while making sure we maintained our own.
For
those of us growing up in the 60's the muscle car epitomized freedom.
Especially for the teen and returning serviceman from places like Viet Nam. It
gave us mobility and freedom to get around where we wanted and when. And did
so in style and a whole lot more.
It
also incorporated some of the best of American engineering and brought the
most powerful cars on earth to customers that couldn't get enough of
them. For a change they were being made because of what the customer
wanted instead of whatever the corporate board members liked themselves. Men
like Delorean, Iacocca, Duntov, and more had to fight to get the American
Muscle Car into production, only to be proven right by us and our free
choices.
Yesterday, Veteran's day, we thanked and remembered the military
person that helped to defend that freedom that made the Chevelle possible.
Today we are thankful for the military person that defends our freedom to
remain a free society and not allow others to impose their "religion" and
ways upon us. Surely, the freedom to do what we do with our Chevelles
would be in jeopardy at the very least without the American serviceman and
woman.
May
we always have enough volunteers to defend our way of life. I served
my time and I know others here have as well. I know the tradition will
continue. I hope my great grandchildren inherit a life of freedom defended and
maintained by our ability to use our technology and power when necessary
to defend our freedoms and those of others. I hope to pass my Chevelle on down
for generations.

And before you ask what this has to do with
Chevelle's-Figure it out yourself!
