In Mundelein during the work week and in Chicago over the weekends. I work up in Gurnee, so the commute from Chicago to Gurnee everyday would be too much for me - I get road rage pretty easily.

Born and raised in Glendale Heights. I lived in Chicago for 5 years while I was going to college at UIC. Moved out to Bolingbrook in 2002.

I am in the Naperville area. Orginally from the Atlanta area and had a job transfer about 3 years ago. Chicago is a nice place but the cost of living is much cheaper in Atlanta. Looking forward to moving back south when this job assignment is over...

i live around there too... in Aurora.. but close enough to Naperville (Aurora-Naperville Border Is Like... Less Then A Mile Away)

Gurnee here. And spring would be WAY better for a meet - usually people put their latest mods and whatnot on after the winter.

I'm from Naperville originally too. I graduated from Central HS in 2000. I live in the city now though, doesn't get as warm as Houston, but it's definitely a fun place to live...besides the weather. I have to constantly wash my APB to keep it looking nice, and you can't do it by hand out here in the city either. SUCKS. When I was living out in Naperville, I'd wash my celica almost every other day just because I could.

I just got an '05 WDP AT w/Navi. It took FOREVER to find one without that weird four color interior: black/beige/wood/silver. PM sent about my brother's name.
