Default Hello

Goodmorning all. After messing with Jeep Wranglers for the past five years I've decided to leave that all behind and buy a Corvette. I will be leaving the office shortly to pick up my 2012 Grand Sport in Cyber Gray and a six speed manual trans. Time to go the the mountains with the Jeep was just too limited and I had a Corvette twenty years ago and really enjoyed it.

Hopefully I can find other owners here in the Midwest that enjoy trips to scenic places. My wife and I are going to the Smoky Mountains National Park in a few weeks to enjoy the car and a new to us part of the country.

By the way, I've been reading this forum for some time, great group here.
