Bad month September
Hi All
I have not been on the site for a while because September 27 I was in a accident with my corvette. I was pretty bang up a tractor trailer run over the front end of car and rear was hit by the rear tires. From the report it showed he didnt see me and drag my car for 100 ft. My corvette was V yellow and it was daylight. I remember very little from the accident other than onstar trying to talk to me. The corvette was totaled and i never saw it afterwards. So no pictures. I want to get another vette and i am seeing if anyone has a GM Supplier Discount for Friends code. The reason I am asking because I didnt get what i needed from the trucker insurance company to replace her. I have been on the C6 forum forever and will replace with a new vette and anyone out there with a code they can provide me would help me get back into a car again
Thanks again

Use the Credit Union discount - same as supplier and available to anyone. You just need to belong to an eligible Credit Union (you can join one very easily). https://www.mygmdiscount.com/

First of all, sure hope you are OK. And yes, check out the savings you can get from the Credit Union discount program. You may save a lot of money on a C7.

I did the credit union discount on my 2015 and can say it was amazingly easy and fast.
You don't have to actually use the credit union to finance it. Just click on the link Zymurgy posted above and select "program" and go from there. It's up to dealers discretion to take it like any of the other discounts but lots of the big forum dealers are taking it now.

Glad you are OK, I think I would have gone after the insurance Co for more, not like it was a 5 year Old car.

Glad you are ok now. I know what you mean about truckers. I just returned from a 3000 mile road trip and what I have seen over and over again is truckers now try to drive their rigs as if they were compact cars. They will pull out of the right lane into the left suddenly just to avoid having to slow down for a vehicle entering the highway....just a few feet clearance to you if you are driving in the left lane.....nuts!
