Default Trip to pick up my new C7

I picked up my C7 GS in NJ and drove it back to Texas. Here are some of the sights. NCM was great and anyone with an interest in Corvettes should go.https://www.facebook.com/hrboyle/posts/10213092771211606

Congrats on getting your C7. I'm going to move this over to the C7 General section where other C7 owners can enjoy your story.

Congratulations on your new Vette.

You stated you got 24 mpg in economy mode? That is suprising. It should be much more than that. I get 26 mpg driving 80 mph in touring mode.

Enjoy your Vette.

Welcome and congratulations. I just made a chunk of that drive a few days ago (BG to Houston) after Museum delivery of our 2019 GS. Also stopped in Memphis and checked the box on the Graceland tour.
