As I said, I've only been to Chicago once and drove downtown. Apart from not really knowing where I was, I didn't think it was that bad. But being from nowhere near Chicago, I have always heard how terrible it is to drive there. But I'm fine with driving there if you guys say it's cool. Grumpy old men here don't like driving at all and tend to exaggerate.

I know hot dogs are not the best thing in the world but I heard from those darn food shows that Chicago has good dogs. True? Or is the pizza better?

Yeah, we'll do Starved Rock and hiking by day and Chicago by night. Perhaps a nighttime photoshoot?

Ah, Ok. I got out of the loop. I come in here and all the sudden it's just Chicago talk. I'm not sure how well coordinating a bunch of people on the highway for 2 hours is going to go. I tend to drive like an old lady when cruising on the highway usually, park behind a semi and put the cruise on 60. Usually...

I have half a mind to keep it and make an SS-Four front end. But I can't do the work myself and I don't think there's a body shop around here that would touch that project. So I figure I'll give you guys the first option the offer it in the Ohio meet thread. Zack, I'll give it back to you for free on one condition: Keep the car!

Door to door for us from Chicago to Starved Rock is about an hour and twenty minutes. If we do go to Chicago, it will be a cruise, and not Fast & Furious style. Don't worry gramps ![]() |

I actually would love to see your 7th gen. Probably go lost in the mix of confusions in the posts. Just add your name again.
