You guys giving him crap about selling need to cut a bro a break for God's sake!! He's just doing what HE needs to do.

Sorry to hear about having to sell, but it sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders and realize what is important right now. Hopefully it won't be too painful for you to still hang out with your friends here Vette or no Vette. Just think of the time you will get to share with all of us "Just bought a torch red 04' Z!"
Congrats. on getting married and enjoy that new home!

You are not a wuss for crying, but you are a wuss for getting into a situation where you are forced to sell something you really enjoy.

I suspect that a pretty high percentage of people here are married. My wife probably isn't wildly enthusiastic about having the Vette, since I have to have a winter car where I live, but she knows I like it, so no complaints. I wouldn't chose a wife who would make me give up the things that I like. Of course, maybe it was your choice entirely, and she had nothing to do with the decision.

uzi:

Good for you. The car is just a machine. I've had fun with vettes for almost 10 years. But like you my priorities are starting to change. And I'm thinking of selling my QS '02 with 4100 miles on it in the spring and buying a new truck.

So you are not alone bro
