Won a C6!!! - Finally got pictures!!!!
NEW!! Finally got pictures to post
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/phot.../ppuser/297296
OK, I have been reading the posts on this forum for a couple weeks now, and I am so impressed with the help and advice you guys and gals give. I'm not sure what I expected, but it is really cool to "listen" in on all these conversations. Now it's time to stick my head out and tell my story....
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......

I've entered 10's of those drawings, you know, selling 500, $100 dollar tickets where the church gets $50,000 grand & gives you a $43,000 vette & they keep $7,000. I never win. Congrats & drive it!
...welcome and congrats!
