Default Worth Surviving For

Anyone see what they gave away on tonight's survivor? Yep, a brand new red C6 Vert. And the winner could even win enough money to put gas in it for the rest of their lives. Hope this isn't a dupe. I did look. Sweeeetttt!

And the winner wasssss....Ian. He and Tom got to drive it off to some mansion for reward. When he won, he kissed her on the hood. You could tell he was a true corvette lover. For those that have no idea what I am talking about, it is the reality show "Survivor". I am normally not that wound up about the show but hey, a Vette was involved.

I just saw the show. Said that it would be back in the US waiting for the winner when he got back. I gotta say that the winner, Ian, needs to trade it in immediately on anything else. This guy is a ******** and should not be driving that car. Just my .02

I hope he wins the million or that training Dolphins pays well because he is looking at 15-18k taxes and may not get to keep it.
