A guy buys his GF a new 2014 C7.......

I've watch it twice and I just don't get the GF reaction to getting this as a gift. http://ls1tech.com/articles/man-surp...d-c7-corvette/

Wow, I re played it just to see if I missed the reaction. Nope it was there, it was masked by the "I don't give a hell, why did you pull me outa work" face.

Unless you're fully loaded beyond belief I do not understand the concept of a car as a present. I get so tired of those Lexus Christmas commercials where the wife gets a new RX350 or something. My first though is; If my wife pulled $50k out of our account w/o asking me I'd really be pissed.

Sorry - end hijack !

1. The guy is a tool. 2. The girlfriend could care less. 3. Does the license plate have her name on it (Juggs McGee) or his name (remember when Homer bought Marge a bowling ball with his name etched in it?)?

I'm impressed she actually knew how to drive a manual trans ... I only know a handful of women that do.

There are lots of people in this world, where that is just "pocket change" to them.
Remember, the bad economy did not affect everyone and there are still lots of very well off people.

Yeah, I agree - and I realize I've been very blessed in this life. Unfortunately the gap between rich and poor is becoming wider all the time.
