Congrats on your accomplishment. I am two months into the corvette world and see that I have been missing out for years. I'm only a few miles from you in Waldorf so I will be making a trip soon.

Mike,
Congrats and I hope you have many more years to go. I would never consider buying another corvette from anyone else. I've bought two very special corvettes from you and both times have been the easiest and most stress free buying experiences I've ever had.

Did not buy from Mike, but all I hear on the forum is great things about him.

May you have 35 more years selling ....if you choose to.

Congrats Mike. I would've bought my C4 from you back in 1995 had I known about Criswell. Was the forum around back then? Anyway I'll be at Carlisle Sat & Sun with my sweet new GS. Just hit 1500 miles on her today!!..

I don't believe car sales reps will be around 15 more yrs no less 35. Maybe I am a dying breed. A Corvette sales rep dinosaur that someday will get put out to pasture by way of the computer...for my sake, I hope I have many more yrs left doing what I love. My customers think they are the lucky ones getting new Corvettes...I realize and I have done so many yrs ago...I am the lucky one. I have always felt the harder I worked, the luckier I got. Selling Corvettes and representing the Corvette brand of GM has done more for me then I have ever done for the brand.

Congrats Mike on a job well done. I'm a newbie here on CF and to the corvette world. Learned a lot from the forum and have enjoyed your post of pictures and stories. I'd really like to meet you and shake your hand, maybe at Carlisle. I'm a native Marylander traveling there for my first time from odenton.
