Default Thank you!

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone for all the great information that's available thru this wonderful site. I've been reading (quietly) for quite some time. Everyone has been extremely helpful.

Anyway, my name is Allen and I live in Kirkville NY which is about 15 minutes east of Syracuse. (Hi everyone)

The good news: As of yesterday I became a very proud owner of a 2004 Machine Silver Z06. It's my first Corvette and I can't wait until spring! Although opening up my garage door each day to get a good long look should help my wait

Thanks again-

Welcome Allen

I know how long these upstate New York winters can be.
This is a terrific forum .
Before joining earlier this year, I picked up so much information from people who enjoy the same passion.

Enjoy the ride and don't forget to wave

Many happy miles to you

Jim

Welcome to the best forum on the 'Net, Allen!

If you've been for awhile, you know that for many of us, ownership is the realization of a life long dream. For others, it's a another in a long line of Corvettes owned. Whichever category you fall into - miles and miles of smiles to you!

We stand by ready, willing and able to answer your questions. Who knows, you might even get the answer you're looking for!

I'm betting that you won't wait until spring either. On one of your trips to the garage to look you will break down and go for "just a little ride" that will turn into a cruise and your face will be sore from that grin.
