Hey guys! My name is Jake and I'm from Columbus, Ohio. I'm currently a Engineering Management Major with a focus in Automotive studies at OU.

Enough with my eHarmony intro, since I have been able to drive I have always owned mustangs. First one being a 2000 v6 5spd, then a 2003 GT 5spd, and now a 1998 Cobra. However, I have always deep down felt that I'm a corvette guy despite the fact of never owning one. But the time has come! My cobra is for sale and I should hopefully be in a c5 by the end of the summer. I look forward to being apart of the community!
