Default Yet another new guy.

Hello everyone. Just a quick intro. I have been lurking this site for awhile whenever I wanted to learn something about my '14 Stingray. I have had it almost a year. It's my daily driver and it just turned 17k miles today. It is my 2nd Corvette. The first was a 1972 I purchased new so yeh, I'm old. The C7 is a coupe and is Torch Red. Only mods are an AFE intake, Dynamatted the entire floor, and a MGW short throw shifter. I had the paint protection put on it before I left the dealership with it.


Yesterday I purchased my 3rd Corvette when I ordered a 2016 Z06. It will also be Torch Red. I didn't go to extremes with it and the dealer sez it should be here in mid-August. It is a 3LZ coupe & A8. This will be my weekend, nice weather, only for fun Corvette. I am doing the NCM delivery and will be driving it back to Oregon. I talked to a Xpel dealer in Louisville today about putting the paint protection on the car the day after I pick it up.


I will post pictures when I figure out how to do that.


Oh, I also have a SC'd Toyota Tundra 5.7 making about 600 ponies for when the weather gets too weird.
