Hey all, just got back from the 2007 Chicago Auto Show, in Chicago, Illinois. It was great! I had a very short amount of time, so I was a bit rushed, but I saw everything I wanted to see. I did take about 200 pictures, but, honestly, most of them suck. I was in a rush (had about 2 hours to see the larges auto show in the United States
) and so many of the pictures have arms and heads in them, but I would rather have a bad picture than none at all. Some are blurry, sorry. I'm going out of town(D.C) early Friday morning through Sunday night, so if you have questions between then, I am not going to be here. To cut down on uploading time, I took pics in VGA, so they aren't great quality, but I needed to upload them quickly.
This is the link that you can follow to see:

(The photo uploader program is great, btw. Works great with mac).
quick notes: The brand new Dodge Grand Caravan had no lookers. Completely deserted. Same with the new Focus. The Camaro convertible attracted a lot of people.
DCX's test drives were again a big hit. They had Jeep on-road, Chrysler and Dodge on-road, Dodge Trucks course, and SRT performance course. All were free. I choose the SRT course, which consisted of a pedal to the medal 0-50, and then a panic stop on a special course. They had all the SRTs except the Viper and Ram. I
almost got in a Grand Cherokee (the fastest) but ended up in a 300c SRT8.
The driver, a F1 driver, was VERY interesting. He worked for Saab, Volvo, Chrysler and Dodge as a test driver, and, HE WAS ONE OF THE PEOPLE IN THE BMW E70 NURBURGRING COMMERCIAL!!!
He said he worked for BMW on occasion, and was chosen for the E70.
!
While on the topic of the E70, I would like to say to those who don't know that I am trading in my E53 for the E70 on Monday. Very excited!
See you all Sunday night!
