Like said before tolls can range from 50-75 cents up to $2. If you don't plan on going down into Illinois besides this trip it isn't worth the money.
that is true... although depending on what tolls you take, you can be waiting for awhile depending on what time you are driving through the chicagoland area. i have family down there, thats why i have one

plus... it was always fun waving to everyone as i drove right on through

The right half of your Focus RS pic looks awesome. The left half makes me want to projectile vomit on my monitor.

Our hotel does have a small pool and it appears to have a hot tub too...its hard to tell from the small pics.

I'll bring my suite, not sure if I'll go in or not but always good to be prepared.


Our hotel info and pics
http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ex/...psearchresults


If these girls are in the pool I may even jump in naked....after a few beers




But don't worry I'm harry as hell so they'll run.

This is what I look like.

Some of us try to organize things but most of the WI guys like to do things last minute which makes no sense to me.

Of course I am, I'm not gonna hang out at the hotel. wtf that's lame. That pizza place in Madison I want to go to has a location in Wrigleyville in Chicago. No idea how much of a pain in the ass that would be though. The route goes near it though and ends south of their place. It's actually up the road from the last point of the cruise, 3463 N Clark St..

Sorry to be a party pooper for the second time on you guys, but yes, AGAIN, I will have to back out. I wanted to go EXTREMELY bad but I am/have been dealing with a family situation that is close to my heart. Read about it here: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/lounge-42/please-pray-my-family-161692/

Long story short, things are not good, and I want to make sure that I am around because I don't know how much longer I have.

Sorry guys.
