Hello from NE GA
I have always loved the Corvette, since I was a boy. I retired from active duty service 7 years ago after 22 years, 3 months and 27 days and now that we are within a couple of years of being debt free, I am on the hunt for a 2018 - 2019 C7 Corvette Stingray.
We are also on the hunt for a pontoon boat to putt around Lake Hartwell on. We are methodical and patient and have faith the right car and boat will find their way to our lives.
I am grateful to be here and look forward to learning as much as possible before taking the plunge into the GM world.
Currently own:
2000 Ford F-250 with a 7.3L Power Stroke turbo diesel
2003 VW Beetle convertible with a 2.0L gas
2008 Subaru Tribeca with 3.6L gas
2016 Ford Escape with 1.6L turbo gas

First, and most importantly IMO, thank you for your service. Secondly, a big congratulations on retirement. Great, isn’t it? When you search for your Corvette, search with patience and knowledge. Then strike when it appears in your sights. Best of luck with your search, that is part of the fun! And, lastly, welcome to the Forum with its knowledge, humor, and camaraderie.
