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...

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.
