I went from a Toyota 4Runner to a 4WD Silverado 2500HD. Pretty big jump. Get used to it pretty


quickly - or hit a lot of stuff.

I have an F-150 SuperCrew and I love it. Nobody pulls out in front of you when you are


driving down the road. Mine has a 156 ince wheel base and I can do a 3 point turn in my two


car driveway. Whenever I go somewhere I do stratigic parking, park out where nobody is.




I've also noticed how courteous drivers have become since I got the Silverado. It's a remarkable

transformation. I had no idea my purchase of a big pickup would improve the manners of such a great

many people!


Funny... I've notice that people react to the Corvette in different ways. One of the most aggressive reactions is from guys in pickups! They want to race me for some reason. Crazy. Young guys in Mustangs tend to leave me alone :-)
(I like Mustangs, BTW)


I'd race ya - if you'd strap a 10K lb trailer to that 'vette!
