Attention n00bs...
The nickname for your Corvette is Vette, not vet.
A Veteran is who you thank for your freedom.

only a vet can call his vette a vet.
no non-vet has jurisdiction over a vets vette.

I'm dead set that a vets' vette is the one to get. It's a safe bet that it hasn't been wet,carries no debt and no reason to fret. Without regret and not getting upset; It's vette not vet.

...and if you would like to be lazy (as many seem to be online when typing - ie: "words" such as "prolly" 
), then use complete and acceptable abbreviated terms like "Vette."

As far as Vet and Vette, I always try and capitalize the "V". Seems more respectful.

That's why I blended my user name with being a Navy Veteran and having a Vette. I've been back in the states a month now and am glad to be back. Course my name has my old 89 and now I've got a '92...
