I hate corvettes
They make me want to ride around all day causing me to call in to work and make excuses, lie to my wife about chores, neglect the kids, and spend money on gas, and on and on.....but I think I'll keep it.

I smell what you're cookin' bbl. Yesterday, I drove nine hours back home from a wedding (with the family, in the minivan). I was mad because thunderstorms prevented me from taking a leisurely drive in the vette!! How's that for sick?

The solution is: Put the wife to work (preferably two jobs) so she is to busy to listen to your excuses. Have the kids spend quality time doing chores (preferably lots of them) so they are busy. And for you to spend quality time driving your Vette with an occasional stop for a cold one. (preferably with Corvette buddies who have figured out the same thing)

Dude you are so correct!
I called my wife and let her know I'd be taking the Vette to work tomarrow and she was upset because she wanted to take it!
Well I love it when she drives it but I got to trump her because the tranny tune is still an issue and will be taking it to the Tuner to finish the Bugs and Gremils off!
Thanks,Matt

Finally got a fine day today. The rain stopped and the sun came out so I drove to work with the roof down
Driving onto base and the guard says
Sir that has to be the coolest car on Station
It made me smile. Yup I hate Vettes.
