Sorry to see you go, but I had a TJ a few years back... and believe me, the thrill fades fast. Throw a cover on the vette, put it in the garage, and we'll see you again in a year or so when you (hopefully!) come back!

I have a Jeep XJ and a C5. I like the Jeep but would never consider selling the vette for it. Maybe there are other reasons behind this I dont know. All I can say is (since I have both) you WILL regret this :-)
As for the headlight comment, I hope they dont go back. People are just so stuck on the pop-ups and not realizing technology is way passed that. When GM was putting poor output, heavy mechanical pop-up halogen lights in their C5's, companies like BMW, Porsche, and Mercedes were putting adaptive directional auto leveling HID projectors in their cars. I love my C5, but one reason I love the C6 is because they finally caught up with technology and looks. Just my opinion. Hope to see you back soon.
