A C5 encounter with a C6
Just today I saw a gentleman in a dark blue C6 in the parking lot of a local store. We were both parked out in different parts of the "North 40" and as I started to leave, I noticed him about to leave as well.
So I pulled up next to him and gave him a wave and he enthusiastically returned the wave. We rolled the windows down (for you younger guys, we lowered them) and exchanged greetings and compliments on each other's cars.
I ended up giving him a business card for our Corvette Club and invited him to join us at our next meeting. Whether or not he comes, it was a great "Corvette Moment." Two complete strangers talking cars as if we were old friends.
Nice to be in the Corvette family.

story. Probably 99% of the time, when you get two Corvette owners together, they can find many things to talk about.

You know, some people think a car is only good for getting to work and back...can you believe it 
Jeep had a good line, I paraphrase: "It's a Jeep thing, you wouldn't understand." or was that a Harley thing...well you know what I mean.
