Default 500 miles and my thoughts so far

So I've just had my 500 mile oil change and my dealer Gunn Chevrolet took good care of me no with no issues. The 500 miles seemed like an eternity but its all good. My thoughts since I ordered my 2017 Z063LZ in LBR with 7M which arrived in 6 weeks time. It was the first 2017 Z06 in the area and when I saw it before they prepped it I was like WoW I love it the LBR with the Shark Gray accents....the salesman who showed it to me was like wait till it's cleaned before taking pictures and I'm like its looks good no matter what dirt is on it plus I'm going to spam my friends with pictures....I debated between a Z51, a Grand Sport or Z06 and I have no regrets the car is everything I thought it would be and then some....it has the looks and styling, the performance and its a Corvette my first one and only one. I couldn't be happier.

nice! I've debated using Gunn for service, used Freedom instead, They supposedly sold the most Vettes in San Antonio. I figured they must get a bunch of service so I got my 500 mi done there about a month ago (I'm at 658 miles now haha). As far I can tell, it seemed pretty good. They filled it right to the top hash mark which was little more than I would have expected, but not overfilled.

maybe I'll see you around!

If you are in the SATX area, I recommend Ancira.
