Especially the sound and the nose lifting, when you take that LT5 above 5,000 rpm and shift a few gears!

Welcome to the family and nice to your comments from someone with a lot of experience with Corvettes and you have been infected by LT5. Congrats on your nice ride and great find. We just closed out the 2015 Gathering in the last hour and what a blast it is to be with this bunch of great folks. Life begin at 69 in many ways.......

I completely disagree with the video. Today being married simply does not pay off. Because of feminism and the horrific behavior of today's women and our skewed judicial system-women today hold the cards and have the power, and they know this. Among most women it's an unspoken rule they never will admit it but they all know, and most take advantage of the radically uneven biased system against men. Marriage today is huge step back for the majority of men today, especially men with financial independence. For decades the government and society has brainwashed us thinking that marriage and kids is not only the right thing to do but the moral thing to do. Feminism and women's hell bent motivations on equality has almost ruined men-women relations in today's society because men are waking up thanks to MGTOW and youtube videos that provide clarity and understanding to men on the extreme disadvantages of marriage and fatherhood today.

All this said, I advise guys to work hard and save, and buy what you want, when you want. Buy your toys as early as you want but pay cash. Never, ever finance a vehicle.

Avoid the huge financial pitfalls or marriage and kids because it's not worth it anymore. Sorry to be so negative but if you study what is happening you will clearly see that men (especially American/Westernized men) don't get a fair shake in today's society.

Have a great weekend everyone

Are we supposed to come back to this poll thread once a year and update our entries? :-)

I remain deeply offended. (not really)

All the more youthful age groups are in 10 year increments, e.g. 30-39, 40-49.

but then you get to 60 and you just say 60+

Guess the thought is we are all old after 60.

you likely should also add:

Soon to be deceased

Deceased, passed on to son or daughter, so you may want to add teens and 20's to the chart!

So in a way, 20 or so years form now, most owners may all be in their twenties or thirties!
