2018 Vettes at local dealers' websites. The look on her face and her tone, I might

Stay tuned outcome of negotiations.

LOL...I get caught all the time looking at cars. I bought a new car around Thanksgiving, but have been recently eyeing up the deals on the remaining 2017 GSs. She just looks at me shaking her head and says "really".

Starts with a look, next thing you know it's no ***** for a month.

The only remedy is not to get married.

Is she your wife or your mother? if my gf/wife gave me a "look" and "tone" for anything so trivial I would be single again faster than you can say gtfo.

I've been compared with "Scrat", the squirrel from Ice Age, and the Acorn, where my endless corvette search is "the nut". "You're like that squirrel hunting for a nut - you're always looking for the nut" so I'm told

I get crap from the wife just for reading this forum! Of course, I also probably float my ideas about upgrading my now nearly ancient 2016 Stingray for a GS a little too often too...

Face it - it's a sickness. I've got it too. I always tell my wife if I ever win the lottery we are going to need some serious additional garage space.
