Default Teaser thread for Verts

For those looking for Verts, there is a hauler sitting at the Exxon station on Hwy 412, just outside Columbia TN, with a full load of Convertibles. The driver must live nearby, since this is the third weekend I have seen a loaded Corvette hauler at this same location. However, yesterday evening, I noticed that they were all convertibles on this load.
So, is your convertible on this load?????

I thought the title of your thread was "Taser threat for Verts".

I was thinking OMD people are being pulled out of their Vette convertibles by theives with Tasers.

No wonder old people that can't see any more have heartattacks.

Hey CROSSRAMZ...

My car is at the dealer...

I pick up my loaded VR Vert on Wednesday.

Monica has been great, even emailed pics of my Vert to me (knowing I could not get there for a few days).

Yeah, later this week, I'll be stylin' in my RED VERT!

Lars

I have to make a correction, went by there a little while ago, and one on the bottom row is a red coupe. Most of the Verts are red with one silver. I wonder if the driver would notice that one of the red verts was replaced with a white C5 coupe?
