So, we went for an iced coffee this afternoon, and stopped to pick up something for dinner.
On our way home, I spotted something I see often, living in a border town, an 18 wheeler driving through town on residential streets.
Usually they're trying to "jump the line" when the bridge traffic is bcked up WB on the 402/Blue Water Bridge.
However, in this case the guy was headed to a local hotel for some downtime. So, I gave chase.

What's unusual about today's sighting is as follows...

So I spoke to the driver (sorry can't figure out how to update the original post with the pics) and he's from Flint.
He works for JCT, and just brought 8 Stingrays from BG, no Z06s, and is headed to Toronto (Humberview, I believe),
and then on to Woodbridge and Richmond Hill.
I asked about the cars sitting in Ingersoll, and he said they drop some there, at the Cami plant, to be picked up by Canadian freight delivery companies, and then on to their final destinations. He isn't dropping any there in this run.
He said it was because most are headed further into Ontario, and/or Quebec than they care to drive, so they drop them at the Cami plant "hub" for redistribution by Canadian haulers.
The one sitting over the cab is Orange, if that helps anyone expecting an orange Stingray.
There was at least one Torch Red unit, lower back end of the trailer, and the one above it looks white in the pic.
p.s. I have no idea how I "cheeseclothed" one of the pics.

Exhaust? I wondered if it was that, or a 70th Aniversary. It is white.
I'm not familiar with the subtleties of these cars. Yet.

Definitely a Z06 with that rear exhaust set-up. It could be a "plain white" or Pearl White Anniversary Edition; hard to tell based on that photo. Either way, someone's soon to be a lucky owner...
