Why Corvettes Make the Perfect Summer Ride - And We've Got the Comic to Prove It

The summer sun blazes overhead, the call of the open road reverberates through your soul, and your Corvette convertible sits ready in the driveway. If you've ever driven a Corvette with the top down, you know the unparalleled joy that only this American icon can deliver. But beyond the wind-in-your-hair exhilaration, there's a nuance tied to these cars that every Corvette owner knows too well—remembering your sunscreen!
One of the most amusing aspects of Corvette ownership is showcased perfectly in our latest Saturday Morning Comic. Bob, our fictional protagonist, laments the missed benefits of a Right-Hand Drive Corvette. Why you ask? Because the sunburn from a long drive on the left-hand side of the car is no laughable matter.
The Not-So-Subtle Art of Driving a Corvette Convertible
Driving a convertible Corvette is more than just a drive; it's a lifestyle. Gunning the engine of America’s sports car is addictive, but it also comes with its own set of quirks. Unlike the conservative interiors of sedans, a Corvette's lack of roof transforms each journey into an immersive experience filled with scents, sights, and sounds. But it also turns your car into what Bob jokingly refers to as 'The Ultimate Tanning Machine.'
In this week's comic, Bob finds himself daydreaming of the convenience of owning a Right-Hand Drive Corvette. That way, the relentless sun could roast the right side of his body for a change. His only other option? Riding shotgun in his own car, which, let's face it, isn’t a feasible solution for any self-respecting Corvette owner.
Comedic Relief in the World of Sports Cars
The comic serves as a humorous reminder that, while driving a sports car provides euphoric experiences, it also serves up some unexpected challenges. This is part of a broader series created by our talented artist, available here.
Apart from laughing at Bob's predicament, Corvette enthusiasts can find camaraderie in these comics. We’ve all been there—whether it’s the unexpected summer sunburn, the jealous glances from passersby, or the constant questions from curious strangers at the gas station.
