I won 3 days and 2 nights at a Florida vacation resort once. Hope you didn't have to go through the crap that I went through.

I have been going to the local Chevy dealer every few months for about 3 years just looking and sitting in the Vettes. While I could afford one, I just hesitated to spend the money - it seemed....selfish, I guess. Then a few weeks ago, I went to a conference for work, entered a free drawing with 7000 other folks, and ended up winning a brand new black C6 coupe!!! I freaked out, and it has taken me almost 3 weeks to really believe that it's real. Of course, income tax time will be painful, but who cares. I won a freakin' Vette! No one at work understands what a dream this is for me so I just wanted to tell some people who know how incredibly cool this is. Thanks for listening......
That is so cool and I am sure you will enjoy it. By the way I was born and raised in Scottdale Ga. Small world.

Congratulations!

Enjoy! Since you only have to pay the taxes, that leaves plenty for upgrades!
