Default Thumbs up, lets do this!

I know I was going to be getting a Z06 for a while but it was always a timing thing. Buying new houses, kid coming up, a lot of life handling. My wife knew we would be doing it but always gave me the typical "Lets wait and plan for x" citing something about 'responsibility'. The 5 year old boy always felt like he was dying but the 30 year old man knew it was the right thing to do.

Well, as an anniversary present, wife gave me the thumbs up to put a deposit down on a 2016! I'm frigging shaking I'm so excited!
