    My final day will be December 30th 2016. The people I`ve met and the things I`ve learned here have been priceless. It`s been a privilege and an honor to be a part of one of the best communities in the world.

    2017 just seems like the right time to make these changes, and with my first baby boy on the way; I`ve got plenty of motivation to make 2017 a great one. This decision wasn`t made overnight, it`s a decision I think is best for me and my family.

    I`ll still be around the industry and I`m looking forward to getting my hands dirty everyday doing something I love. Autopia will be in great hands with Paul and Vision Investments. I wish everyone here the best and am leaving as an ally and friend.

    Thanks,
    Ray Vega

    Ray - Wish you the best, and good luck in the new venture. You`ve been awesome as one of the faces of Autopia, and a big part of what makes the forum so great. Please come back as a "normal" detailer so we can all still learn from you.
