I'm Kent and I'm a recovering Harley freak. After 43 years and half a million miles on scooters without untoward event I have had a growing appreciation of the fact that I am riding on statistical borrowed time. Thus and therefor, I have decided that four wheels are the prudent way to cover ground. Sooo . . .

I haven't laid eyes on it yet but I've cut a remote deal for a 2008 Coupe with only 24,000 miles, a Z51 package, dual-mode exhaust, and a convenience/interior package that would seem to be LS3 although the seller does not identify it that way. And it's RED! Crystal Red Tint Coat. It's well known in motorcycle circles that RED! is the fastest color; I would presume the same holds true in high performance cars.

I fly Monday to pick it up and drive it 600 miles home to Yakima, WA. And then, wondrous blessing, on Jan 1 Sherrie and I head to Prescott, AZ for a year as she consults for an aerospace company. Let the good times roll!
