Maybe because the Corvette is built in Kentucky.

WB here, too! For the last 5 years, I've been spending most of my time in OT, but now that I'm "back in the fold", I'll be spending more time back here in C5 land. Actually had the C5 out for a drive yesterday; 1st time since bringing her home in mid-Dec.

(I almost posted "that's because most people in WB have C6's", but I figured that attitude came from spending so much time in CFOT )

I used to live in Mount Clemens, but moved to the great white north about 5 years ago and now see less of my Vette than ever. Already waiting for spring.

I'm here at least 4 or more times a day, just no BS replies to prove it. I think you will find that most people don't wave either.
