^ eh rain and snow this sucks... You know we have bad weather in chi-town when the fox newscasters are whining about the weather. Oh chicago how we all lover your 2 seasons of constant winter and humid @ss ball sweating summers....Long ago I used to remember i think something called "fall" and "spring" but i'm not sure - it might have just been a childhood dream.

Yep, I'm definitely ready for the snow and cold temps to be over so that we can get some warm weather and have it dry up some.

Our weather has sucked balls since like Nov. 20th. Not one really nice day.

Illinois sucks. Bad weather, high taxes, no concealed carry, 65 mph limit, tolls, bad schools, etc.

We had a couple of teaser days in the 50s in Jan and March. Just to get hit with 9-11" of snow (in my neck of the woods) on Friday.....luckily most of it has melted.

But it's going to be crappy the next couple of days, very nice out right now though.

i drive up on fairfield on the way to work every morning...

it's a little hard to miss your truck that's 4 feet off the ground

:)

if you see a black GC SRT-8 with a borla-s, that's me!

LOL, yep I was driving that beast for a week or so while my buddy worked on the other two trucks I had been driving all winter.

If you see this truck, it's my work truck....stands out a bit due to the color:

Although now it has an aftermarket hood (same one as my big truck) and if you've seen it this week....it has a lot of mud on it :D
Gotta wash it since my buddy is putting all our company lettering/logo on it again on Sat.



I'll have to keep my eye out for your ride.....I'd love to hear a Borla S in person.

Been surprisingly nice here in KS for this time of year . . . 50s-60s mostly during the day. Still waiting for our final winter blast of 30 degree days in March before spring hits

Yeah, normally the only time I drive the big truck is at night and on weekends during from April-Nov.
The bright blue one I drive the majority of the time since I work 70-90+hr weeks from April-Nov.

I'm surprised I've never paid attention and seen your SRT8.

I have been seeing more of them lately.
You ever seen the bright green (like sour apple jolly rancher green) one? I normally see it in the Round Lake/Hainesville area.

wasn't sure if that's stock or aftermarket. some of them have tried to play

I'll have to be quick with the camera phone the next time I see the bright green GC SRT8....I think the wheels are painted to match as well, can't remember. Not my cup of tea on the color but damn does it stand out.

If all goes as planned we could see 10% sales tax in chicago. Makes ya wanna just move here doesn't it.

^ its already official - it will be 10% - cook counties' pres . Mr stroger wanted to go for 11% but jee guess we got lucky. The 10% is calculated to bring in between 300-400 million a year to the county. Makes you wonder what the f*ck they do with the money ??? Illinois is probally the number one most politically corrupt states in the country... We have the Daley Dictatorship, and Blagoyevich. Hell our last governer is spending 6 yrs in jail currently.
