Default Hello from Texas

Hi everyone,
I'm happy to be a member here from the Dallas area. My name is Dan and I've loved corvettes for as long as I can remember. I'm 29 so my love affair is still relatively young.
I just got my first: a 2017 Grand Sport collectors edition #182 M7 and I couldn't be more thrilled.
