Hey thanks Gary, so glad we got to meet when you took a sidetrip to the dealership and we had lunch with Bill.

Congratulations Mike!! I have never met someone that is so passionate about there job, likes the product they sell so much that he buys them for himself over and over, and cares about the customer and the experience of there purchase so much. I have come in after a long day for you when you are heading out and you still take the time to have a conversation and answer questions so passionately. Here’s to many more successful healthy years of selling the worlds best sports car!

I somehow missed this thread earlier, but let me just congratulate you.

It seems a bit odd congratulating someone who has spent 36 years enjoying the good fortune of mixing his vocation and avocation. Aside from being an orientation guide in Heaven, I can't think of a better way to make a living or life.

But then your hard work made a successful career happen and I wish you all my best. 36 years at anything is a remarkable accomplishment that anyone should be proud of. If my local Chevy dealer can't help me, you will be hearing from me.

Thanks Don. I like your way with words. Selling Corvettes and representing the brand has been terrific fun. I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Congats Mike! You are the epitome of someone dedicated to furthering the appeal and pleasure of owning a Corvette. You should be in the Corvette Hall of Fame. Glad I went to you to get my vette even though it was all done over the phone and email. I'm looking forward to finally meeting you at Carlisle. Hope to get a pic of both of us in front of my car.
