I should have came here first before posting questions!

I got my 2014 Ram 1500 with 45K miles on it a year ago to pull a travel trailer with.

For a living I'm semi-retired at 66, but still do a lot of wildlife, nature, mountain lakes photography for the forest service and other agencies. It's more of a lifelong passion of mine. Here is my website if you care to look:

I was on a Corvette forum that I started 18 years ago, (actually still a moderator on it but don't own it anymore) Yep, I've owned several Corvettes over the years, another one coming soon:

Looking forward to hanging out here.

Welcome! My brother lives in Puyallup :)
Small world! I love Puyallup!

I just sold a house in Tacoma last month. Made a killing on it as there was a bidding war for it. The Seattle market is dropping, but Tacoma was still hot, sold while we could. Now living in Apartment for a couple years until market drops when it becomes a buyers market. Plan to buy a home just outside of SE Puyallup or out towards Orting.

Puyallup is so much better than Tacoma!

BTW, you live in Long Island, NY and your brother lives in Puyallup? Why so far apart???

Welcome! I had a '72 T-Top for a while as a young dumb kid in the military. Didn't take me long to total it though and since I've grown up and got a little (emphasis on little) more mature, I've always wanted another of that body style. I think a 68/69 would be my first choice as they really tamed down the motors in '72......although I do like my creature comforts so the old man in me might get something newer with dynamic stability and traction control. My reflexes aren't what they used to be.

HA! You got that right... I was a young and reckless 20 when I had the 68 you saw in my link/website. Didn't wreck it, but got over 15 tickets with it, you know, burnouts, speeding etc. Finally had to sell it as the insurance cost way more than the payments were. LOL You will notice most of mine on the website were C3's and I love that style best, BUT, I'm also aging at 66 and next time around will be probably a 2017 or 2018.

Welcome Jack. I’m down in Oly. Retiring from the Army soon and will likely settle here for the long haul. I’m originally from MT but have really taken a liking to WA.

No, I never buy new... it will probably be a two year old one. I'm looking to get a 2018 next Spring.

Smart. I have a mid-engine car - a Porsche Cayman - and i think this new C8 will impact sales for the Caymans and Boxsters, especially at the price point for the Corvette. I sure like the way the mid-engine handles!
