Default Wtf???????????
How in the HELL does a topic about a fellow Vette Owner being killed by his car crushing him turn into a DAMN POLITICAL THREAD

Some people need to get a freaking LIFE

I see now the thread is CLOSED

Never thought ANYTHING about what freaking TV station reported the FACTS about a guy getting pinned between his 2011 C6 and a tree.

Worse than THT

A lot of people on this forum do not know what wax to use or how to set their door locks. But have the answer to all our political problems.

What is the saddest is a man died trying to save something that meant something to him and all people can do is bring up their own agenda rather than doing one of two things: offering condolences and respect to the man, or simply shutting their pie hole and moving on.

We have so devalued the loss of a humans life that it is now fodder for irrelevant discussions? Shame on everyone who made that happen.
