Getting set to do the same thing. Just bought this from a Vette buddy who's upgrading to an enclosed trailer.




This will get pulled behind our RV.

I drive my C7 from hotel to hotel when we are traveling in the summer, helluva lot more fun that driving that big rig down the road. Probably cheaper in the end given the investment in a RV.

I keep seeing those huge things on the hiways where I drive my vette. While many are beautiful and luxurious on the inside, I do not see how they can be much fun wrestling thru the traffic on today's interstates.

I wonder if that car came from WI? I test drove that same color combo Vert and wondered "who in their right mind would order this color combo". The car was sold from the dealership after sitting there for at least 4 months. Can there really be two of the same out there with a not so appealing combo?

I agree that the C7 does not have the colour combination I would choose. To each their own I guess. Like the motorhome very much.

for the price of a nice RV I rather just drive to my destinations and splurge on a hotel. Less $$$ in the end. I enjoy driving and an RV would just put me to sleep.

Having owned one of those RVs, you really don't worry about the expense. If you did, it'd kill you!

If you do decide to pull a trailer behind your RV, do a better job of leveling the trailer. That guy will blow out the rear tires on that one quickly.

I am in my right mind and I have the same color combo. I get numerous comments on how classy crystal red and kalahari is. You may have offended a lot of people with good taste with "your who in their right mind comment"
