Road trips and buying a new Vette are a very exciting combination. Some of my most memorable trips have been driving a new Vette home.
Have fun

That looks like the dealership at the base of the bridge bordering Point Pleasant and Bay Head (on Bridge Ave). You should drive down to Atlantic City after you pick it up and attend the Kerbeck T4T event. Hundreds of Vettes attend each year - http://www.kerbeck.com/kerbeck/kerbeck.nsf/ToysForTots

If the weather is nice pop by either the Patio Bar or Tiki Bar on the Pt Pleasant Boardwalk for a drink to celebrate the purchase . Grab a quick lunch at Spikes Seafood ( small place with outstanding lobster bisque). If you have time for dinner Shipwreck Grill in Brielle. Great seafood and steaks.
I'm at my place in Brigantine NJ right now which is next to Atlantic City. If you can make the toys for tots run in A/C tons of restaurants at the casinos. I was just at the Old Homestead at the Borgata last night. Amazing rib eye.
Enjoy the ride!! Between myself and Lupigiato I'm sure we can give you some ideas!!
