Are we related??

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Quite possibly I suppose. Do you also think something on your car will be "just perfect" until it's done, then decide it should be just a little different?
Do you look at new stuff to replace perfectly good stuff you already have?
Do you try 7 shades of black paint to find the perfect sheen, only to find out they are all so close it really doesn't matter? ($80 later).
Do you spend $100 for personalized plates, then decide you want different ones as soon as they arrive?
Then bro, we are related. I think I have lots of "relatives" here. Also on the Corvette Forum...

We having Thanksgiving at your house this year?
