Default Maryland new guy

What's up everyone. New to THIS forum but not forums in general. Don't have a 'Vette yet either; which is why I'm here. To learn and meet some folks in the interim. Yes I am part of the Subaru crowd; which is a good thing. However, I have ALWAYS wanted a Vette, ever since I was a kid ogling over the old school big blocks. Some of you would, I'm sure, say that I'm still a kid. Sadly a stupid decision a few years ago is preventing me from doing that right now. I'm about $9k upside down in my current car making it difficult to trade in or even sell. Don't know about you, but I don't have $9K to throw around right now. I'm rambling. See ya'll around the boards.

Aloha to you as well! I lived in Hawai'i for over a year; which is where I bought my Subaru. Stationed on O'ahu. Yeah I'm haole, but whatever; I miss the islands.
