Introduction
Hello all!
I currently have a 20' Sierra, and looking at purchasing a C5 Vet. Ironically looking at it this Sunday. Fingers crossed it works out. A buddy of mine who owns a C6 recommended this forum.
Looking forward to gathering some information, and hopefully having ownership of one as well..
Hooray!
