I've been here all my life. Land prices 10 years ago $10,000 an acre; now $45,000 an acre.

Campus police have as much power as a State Trooper.

Don't mess with them.

WOW!

This has turned into a MTSU alumni chapter meeting.

The wife & I are grads and our son is now there. I will tell him not to mess with any Vette with the "OYEA LIZ" tags unless he comes home and talks me into borrowing the BEAST!

I went to the one up in Hville last year (I believe the last one of the year) and it appeared to be a nice safe place to hang out. Do you have any more info on the cruise-in?

I am actually surprised that one has not started in Mt Juliet since they have the new mall and it is right in the middle of Hville and the Boro.

Yea its a new Mall..., But with a bunch of F--Ked Up roads around it.

We can thank those "Franklin, TN Want-A-Be" Mt. Juliet city planners who built a mall first without thinking about the traffic!

TDOT told them to fix the roads first, but the mayor wanted her photo opps with ribbon cuttings for the new stores prior to the last election.

BTW.., the mayor works for a realtor that did much of the "development!"

Default C-4 or Vette mechanic

I was wondering where all you local's get your Vettes worked on. I got mine a couple weeks ago and would like to have it checked out/serviced in the near future. I would appreciate any info! Thanks, Murph

Is the one in Hendersonville behind the Steak and Shake in front of Home Depot? We're one exit up the bypass from there.

VetteSport and Performance Garage are two businesses that are co-located in the same building. The Garage has the dyno, Vettesports is in the other half.

Now I understand why there is no sign.

I always assume that it was sort of an "Area 51" deal for those of us cleared to be read-on to the secret of what was going in inside the white building.

Although Jerry is conscientious and fair in all his dealings of which I am aware, I like to think he takes and extra thought or two in the execution of those jobs for his friends.
