Who all lives near the motor city? Spoolin and I will be there early next month. Me for a job interview, and him because he has nothing better to do but tag along I'd like to get to know some people in the area in case they feel like hiring me lol. Maybe get a bite to eat somewhere in the Detroit area and have sort of a meet and greet with fellow truck members. If you're anywhere in Michigan, post up anyway

Also your timing sucks for automotive fun as it's pretty much died down by then, but spring and summer is a lot of fun around here. Woodward Ave was pretty busy every Friday and Saturday night with everything from GTR's and Lambo's to big tire 60's muscle cars. And some import kids but that's unavoidable.

I'm guessing an engineering position? Could have you anywhere i guess, downtown at the Ren Cen, Milford, my girlfriends mom is an engineer for powertrain in Pontiac.

Have you been here before?

That's ok, my truck is 4wd...I can still have fun in the snow. Lowest boost setting only lol. Yeah, the job is in Milford. I've never been to Michigan. Northern Ohio is about as far north as I have been in the midwest.
