Hi, I originally joined back in '99. In 2001 I bought my first Corvette. 1999 C5 silver. Sold that in 2004 and have been driving Ram trucks ever since. Went to get my daughter a car 3 weeks ago and they had a silver 2011 Grand Sport 6 speed with only 13,000 miles. Took my wife back to complete the deal on the Sonic. The helpful salesman said " Let's complete the deal on the Sonic then we can talk about the other deal". My wife said "What other deal?" It went downhill from there but she relented and we drove home 2 "new" cars. I am back in the saddle again. Love this car.
