There is always someone with MORE MONEY but if Rick wants a Corvette that's up for auction HE'S gonna get it. No one has ever out bid him as long as I have been watching the auctions.

George Jr said he didn't miss being president but he misses the military interactions. Too bad he didn't feel like that when he was in the air national guard. Oh my bad he did miss it days at a time

Actually 4 years ago he was outbid twice on two cars out of the GM collection of concept cars. The cars went to a museum.

You're crazy! They had carbon ceramic brakes, magnetic ride control, and all the zr1 aero. They are legit.
