Back in a vette.. it's been way too long.
Traded in my jeep this morning for an '03 Z06. The previous owner really f'd up the stereo and some of the interior trim pieces are cracked, but those are real easy to replace. The rest of this thing is spotless. I love it.
Feels good to be back in the vette seat.

Thanks for the warm welcome back everyone. Feels good to be in the pilot seat again. It definitely feels A LOT lower than the jeep, but I love that feeling.
TorchRedRocket, jeeps are amazingly fun vehicles but suck as DDs. The vette can double as a DD and a fun car. Both communities are amazing though and I'll miss my jeep friends, but hopefully they'll still allow me to hang out haha.

Now all you have to do is lower it so it doesn't have the fender gap of your jeep and you'll be solid! Crank down those bolts a little and make it look like a proper sports car...
