Just picked this up from the dealer in Anchorage yesterday and drove it home 350 miles this morning. The roads were great. Cracked 100 a couple times passing the slowpokes. It's actually a very well behaved car, even if the owner isn't.https://forum.lugerforum.com/attachm...1&d=1650241401

New 2022 Chevrolet Corvette. Only 5 miles on it when I took delivery.

How were the frost heaves past Denali ?

Wow! Those C8's are fantastic. Congrats, and I am jealous.
I'm a vette fan. I restored a 1967 427 tripower roadster in the 90's and am the original owner of a 2012 ZR1.

I like it. I had an 85. A slow poke compared to the new ones.

Remember when I was a little kid waiting for my Dad to come home and hearing his Corvette several blocks away coming home, he had a 69 Vette white convertible with a 427 with factory side pipes. I loved that car.

I had that problem when the C5 Vette came out. It looked like a swollen Mitsubishi 3000GT!!! :D

I did have a 1958 Corvette hardtop convertible back in 1970, when I was stationed in SoCal. Bought it for $600, sold the top for $100, bought a ragtop for the $100, eventually sold the car the next year for $500. :rolleyes:

Ah, to be young in old SoCal again! :o

Doug, does it have a mpg indicator like my old bugger does??? That's where I'm getting my 'real world' gas average from... :rolleyes:

My first car looked like this (same model, but mine was white with faux leopard skin upholstery)

Doubs 04-20-2022 01:55 PM

That new Vette is NICE but something that fast would get me into trouble real quick. That's why I drive a Ford Flex.

No frost heaves. They've rebuilt most of the Parks Hwy over the past 5 years or so. Great road.

Yo. You know they is rated in how many bodies youse can stuff in the trunk, like 2, or 3 or 4. A '77 Chrysler New Yorker might get a 5. But you always gotta figure a little room for the plastic sheet or tarp. Wouldn't want to leave a mess on the trunk carpet.
