Glad to be here !!!
Hello Everyone!
Purchased my first Corvette - a 2004 convertible a couple of months ago, and am just eagerly awaiting spring to really arrive here in Michigan, as I am dying to drive it. It appears that this forum remains a very active resource - which is great. I have been a gearhead for a long time, and have seen many similar forums fade away as a result of Facebook. Don't get me wrong, there is some value there, but between scammers and all the AI crap, it really is a cesspool to wade thru. I am looking forward to learning and contributing here.
Is there a magic trick to posting a DM/PM? I have been trying to figure out how to do it, and I really haven't figured it out. I have never had this much difficulty in other forums I have been a part of. Do I need to have a minimum number of posts before I can DM?
Thanks!
