Default That Is Not A Vette!

OK so some people here know that my other car is a Mustang Cobra. I drive it as more of a daily driver and the Vette is my toy. Just for the record...the Cobra is fun, but I love my Vette more than any of my other vehicles. ANYWAY...I had to pickup a co-worker (who knows I own a Vette, never saw it) the other day at another of our offices and we had to drive somewhere for an event. So we arrive at our destination...and the co-worker gets out of the car and says...I love Corvettes...but they're so small! Here's the punch...I wasn't driving the Vette that day...



That co-worker learned all about the differences between a Vette (which I made it clear the Vette is superior ) and a Mustang that day after that comment.

I laughed forever after that one and thought you all might get a laugh from it too.

I hope the observant co-worker does not make any business decisions, he does not seem too bright.

Co-worker must be a woman. Or an extreme non-car guy. Either way, now you've enlightened them.

Yah, I drove the Vette to one of my job sites to pick up some parts. The GM (a woman) pulled up next to me. She was driving her Mustang. I commented that it was a nice car and she said "I like it but, It's no Vette" I couldn't help but agree.

You should have asked her if she wanted to go for a ride in your Ferrari and pullied up in your Vette, who knows you might get lucky
