Default LifeTime Silver Yeah, I did it!

I've come on here and saved THOUSANDS "Thanks to YOU GUYS"... Quite Seriously!!!
I push the Forum on Face Book in the multitude of Corvette groups I'm in.
I see so much B.S. being passed at knowledgeable information.. UGH
And (LOL)
I have peeps out there that call ME a GURU... OMG...!!!!!

But it's YOU GUYS who make me 'seem' that.

I could stand / sit here all day and say thanks....

But I put my meager funds where my mouth is.

I was, for a year, a 'Supporting Member'.

That 'lapsed', and I was busy with 'life'.

Promised myself "I'd do the RIGHT thing" this year.

SO.....

I paid the Dues, and went SILVER LIFETIME.

My Way of THANKING THE FORUM

And You MEMBERS !!!!

For saving me from jumping off some bridge MORE than a few times.

Thanks!!! (( WAVING ))

I know how you feel - I was on the fence about becoming a supporting member for a long time but finally thought it was the thing to do for all the info and support I've received over the years.

After reading this link I thought of all the help I so generously receive and already tell Vette owners the link and things I have learned - so I just became a Lifetime Silver Member. Since I'm now 69 y/o, lifetime won't be quite so long!!!

With all the Corvette Forums / Groups on Facebook, I'm constantly recommending this forum. I see someone talking about shocks and stabilizers, and post my pics of my car in the driveway with Old and New parts laid out neatly behind the car. Then I tell them to contact that vendor I got my parts from. Result has been MANY positive replies. Now I can tell them that I believe 'so much' in this forum, that I paid the BIG one for Lifetime Membership. Kinda makes them take my words a little more seriously. I like that I can almost take every post here "To the Bank", as factual. Too many FOOLS out there, trying to push whatever their 'agenda' is to cause owners to hurt their cars with false help.

As my '99 Coupe is going to be with me for many years to come, You guys help me to learn and maintain the car to become 'proficient' at my endeavor.

Thank You All.
