Hey all! All systems are "go" for my final retirement celebration at the end of May. I have been hanging around the Forum for about 9 years and have received some really great information from some really great members. Starting with my C4 and up to and including my 2000 vert and 2003 Z06, I have been greatly impressed with the vast amount of camaraderie and support from individuals and those who advertise on the Forum. I also believe that the moderators do a sometimes thankless task and do it well. Now that retirement is looming on the horizon, I hope to spend more time cruising the highways and the Forum. If there are any more "older" than dirt retirees out there, maybe we can start maintain a thread on how we spend those well-earned retirement days with our favorite ride.

You'll love it!!! Did it 2 years ago and never looked back! Only prob, your fuel costs will sky rocket and you'll be looking for all of the "Toy" Add-On sites on the Net.
Good luck on all future endeavors!!

I'm very jealous. I'm about 4wks away from 60, but my retirement funds at 50% of what they were 15 mo. ago and the fact I will be putting my 16 yr old daughter thru college on Soc. Security, I won't be retiring till I'm 75!! BTW, all my wife's family comes from Elizabethtown, great area to drive a vett!! Have fun.
I am only 47 but the way things look today I might be dead before I get to retire

Me too!!
I''ve been teaching high school Biology for 38.7 years, just turned 62 and turned in my retirement forms last month. I still love what I am doing (the kids are great, enjoy the company of my colleagues, enjoy the challenge of teaching college-level courses) but it's time to pass the torch and spend more time with the love of my life. Bet you thought I was going to say our vette didn't you?
I've been limiting the "Great White" to around 10K miles/year but I think we might be adding another 4-5K after retirement.
