Do you answer your PM's??

I get a PM from someone on here I don't know - could be anything - where did you get that so-and-so I saw on your car, or tell me about the wheels or tires you're running, etc...

I answer them. I figure if they took the time to reach out they deserve to be acknowledged, and if I can help, I will.

Don't know if I'm the exception though - I think the response rate to PM's I send might be 3 out of 10 at best.

I wave at others Vette's as well

Do you reply to PM's from strangers??

I had to chuckle at that reply. The number of times I have consulted the AIM for a repair is virtually 0 (zero).

Yea I agree with you Paul. The AIM is good in a pinch but nothing beats the good ole camaraderie of the forum friends spreading the knowledge based off of their own experiences.

I am not at my computer every day, sometimes not for a week at a time; but I answer every one when I return.

Since this isnt CFOT I'll give the guy a break
AIM= Assembly Instruction Manual
It's the manual that the assembly line workers consulted when putting these cars together
