Default Stingray for Ricky!



How about that, a tap on the window at 7:15am this morning of my office window and it’s Jeff whom also has a Stingray on order…he truly has been VERY understanding with the delays and is always a pleasure to speak with….

He knows I am buried and trying hard to keep up, but there are many diversions…

JEFF, posting at 9:15PM and will be here a while sir, but wanted you to know your kindness is more than appreciated - made my day man,
thank-you!

no it's not....I guess my biggest frustration,because I am 100% dedicated to Corvette, I don't want someone to think I do not want their business just because I cannot get back as fast as I WOULD LIKE....that is certainly NOT the case....

I am here since 6:30 this morning....been with three clients in the store, on the phone all day and trying to just reply so poeple know I appreciate the opportunity....but my eyes are buggin out right now man....whew.

But I do understand the excitement and demand....believe me I get it....

Looking forward to meeting many of you soon!
