Congrats on your new ride and as a 100% disabled Vet at 44 I feel for you. I had to have a spinal cord stimulator implanted in my back so the pain in my entire left leg could be numbed so I can walk without screaming in pain. I too use a chair sometimes to get around and it fits perfectly in my hatch. Hope to see you around.

Welcome aboard. I only have one suggestion: Don't start modding, it is more addictive than crack.

Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on getting a C5, You certainly won't be disappointed. It's nice to just cruise or if you want to play, well you know... It's more than capable.

Thanks again for the welcome......still no photos though. I'm hoping to get some over the weekend, but the weather doesn't sound like it will cooperate.

This forum is great. Every time a thought pops into my head of something else I need to look into regarding the Vette, I do a search and find tons of specific info.

I've had the car a little over two weeks now and am still enjoying every minute of it. I wanted to take some good, quality photos of the car to post, but can't seem to find time when the weather is right. For now you will have to settle for these taken with the cheap digital camera I have here at the office. I promise to get some better ones when time allows.
