Default I'm Back!!

After having bought (and sold tisk tisk on me!) a new 2007 Vic Red 3lt coupe.



I just knew I'd never be happy unless I had another vette in the stable.

Tim and Mike at Boardwalk Chevrolet (redwood city, Ca) were nothing short of gentlemen in helping me get my new 2010 GS torch red coupe!









Can our country build and awsome car or what, huh?

Funny you say that! I tried to get a bigger home and couldn't get a loan, so I told the mortgage lenders:

"fine, gimme the smaller loan and the rest, I'll take as a NEW VETTE!!"

So, I literaly got a new home and a new car on the same day escrow closed!! Woohoo!!
