Default So Long for now!

Well, back in Jan when I started looking for my dream I never thought I would be saying this today. I just mailed the title to the new owner and the cash cleared the bank. Due to medical bills and job situatation, the girl had to go! Its a sad day, but I'll be back with a new girl sometime down the road. It was great being here, and I learned a lot from you folks. Take care!

OK, so the vette is gone - not the end of the world. You don't have to go too. Stick around - once a family member, always a family member.

Don't go so that you can still keep up with all of the current info, latest mods, and those "exciting" debates". Hopefully you'll be back in a new one soon. And hope everything works out for you.
