That off loading of your new C7 looked like the Mr. Toads Wild Ride at Disneyland. I know these guys do this daily for a living, but it looked a bit crazy having the driver sitting up off the seat while leaning over the top edge of the door...... looking down at the tires and ramps...... all the while driving a clutch 7 speed tranny.

Really appreciated the tutorial on the delivery process, but we won't be standing around watching ours being unloaded, thank you very much!!!

BTW, do most C7 owners bring their Corvettes back in to have the alignment checked under warranty...... once the suspension has had a few thousand miles to "settle in"?

Sam,
You left me a voicemail yesterday without a phone number to call you back. http://criswellcorvette.com/mike_furman.aspx this is my Corvette dedicated web site.
Please touch base when it's convenient and I will keep an eye out for a used C7 for you.
