I've been a member that long, but have not made it to one of the Forum Cruise-In's. 2500 (?) miles is too far - maybe after we both retire.

I joined in 2004 (when I got my Z06), but had been a lurker since 2000. I should have signed up when I first started to lurk..

I have been on here almost daily in the C5 section for well over 11 years.

I had the CAGS defeat, shorty antenna, and Z06 exhaust plate, 6+ months before I even bought my Z06...

I can't remember exactly when I joined, sometime around 1998-1999, However back then I was on the C3 forum. While I have never made it to a cruise in, I have always wanted to.

Starting lurkingn in 2000 when I bought my wife a Trans AM, posted a lot on LS1.com, but had the itch for a vette. I joined here the day I bought her the vette, then I got the vette about 8 months or so later and she got a new car. I still have the same vette with no wants for a new vette, but I am sure I will some day.
