Congratulations Rich and Connie.
Great choice!!

Wish my wife would want one also. She doesn't bother me too much about the car but I am trying to get her more interested. You would think that after having Vettes for over 30 years she would be a little more attached. Good thing I love her.

Well, don't get me wrong.... If it came to a choice between her keeping her Z71 Silverado or the C6, the C6 would be gone. I pity the poor sucker that ever bumps into her truck!

We took a ride in it today down to St. George, trying to get that 500 miles on the odometer. I drove it to the dealer earlier to have the oil changed and it is a REAL struggle to keep it below 55 mph! I had to stare at the speedometer constantly to keep my right foot in check.

But truth be known, an automatic is just boring to me to drive.... I could easily fall asleep while driving one.

Shhh!! If I put something like "Admin", people will think I know all the answers to all their questions.. Nobody bothers the janitor. He is even more invisible than a "shadow".....

But to answer your question, it's been there for a while now........

Yeah, Connie said she wanted to be the first one to take it "up to speed" after we got that 500 miles under it's belt. But I had to run by her work and the owner's husband was there. He has had both of his kidneys removed recently and goes to dialysis three times a week waiting for a transplant. So Connie asked him if he wanted me to take him for a ride in the vette. Connie knows Sam likes to drive fast, so she gave me the OK to wind it up for him. She felt he needed a real "pick me up" as things just haven't been going well for him lately...... I don't think a cop would have taken that as a valid excuse, but the chance was worth it to me to see the guy smile like he did.
