Well, not new to Vettes, but to this site. Many of you know me from the CF...I reused my username as many have done here. I have no shame in that & nothing to hide. I have owned 5 Vettes to this point. I'm an 80's child for the most part & graduated in 85......yea, showing my age!!

I have to say that the bickering and dumb assed crap thats thrown from generation to generation is really getting OLD!! I have never bagged on any generation Vette. Theres some I dont like, but I never just bust out and tell someone their car sucks....thats just not cool. The part that really chaps my ass is when it gets personal....C5 guys are grey haired fat guys, C5 guys just wrote a check for their cars and have no personal attatchments to the car, C5 guys dont work on their cars, they just pay someone to do it......thats all pure bullsh*t...know how I know?...Cause I AM A C5 GUY!!!!!!

My love for the Vette in general is vast. I am of course particular to the C4. My first was an 89 black coupe, my second was a 94 convertable & now I have my 92ZR1. Now look at that, I'm also a C4 GUY!!! Can this be possible??? A C4 guy and a C5 guy at the same time!!! OMG!! and look, my hair is brown, I'm not fat & I'm not shi**ing nickles!!

In addition to my bright red 92 ZR1, I also own a badass torch red 02 Z06. Theres proof...I love Vettes period. I have to believe we can all get along just fine without tossing crap to eachother.

Having said all that, I will close by saying this. I have met alot of terrific Vette owners. Most own several generations....all the guys in my area are helpful, polite & respectful to eachother. I like to think I'm the same towards my fellow Vette brothers & sisters. I have done all my own work on all my Vettes & while not near as knowledgable as some of you guys are, I hope from my own experiences that I can be of some help to others.....and learn from others still.

Sorry for the long post.....Peace to all

Glad to see you here, buddy! Now I'm not the loan Coloradoan! My hair is grey, I am fat, but I graduated high school in 87, so I'm not THAT old....

Anyway, I'm glad you found us, and I hope I can scam a ride in your Z sometime. :tongue:

I have the strangest feeling that I will be screaming like a little girl
... Then saving up for a Z!

Casey, he's near Canon City (pronounced"canyon") a little west of me. I am a little ashamed that I have not met him in person yet. But we'll fix that!

What does "CF" stand for? Corporate flop? Communist farce? Cockamamie fools? Counterproductive frittering? Compulsive faltering? Catastrophic failure? Completely fucked?

Nice to see ya here. I'm with you Bogus - graduated in 83, but I admit I escaped from school a year early. Did the college thing from 16-20 and then joined the P.D. three days after my 21st birthday. Then as "luck" will have it, some years later, I get into a high-speed chase, have an accident and retire.

Anyway, welcome. The #'s keep growing and growing. And theirs keep getting smaller.
