Default chicago dead?

this Chicago forum seems so dead i know there are a lot of people out there who live in Chicago and the surrounding area who have excellent cars. i have had the privilege to see some in person and yet no one posts or really talks about anything here maybe a meet will come up once in a while but there should be more than just this occasional mention of a few things here and there. i think it is kind of sad how we don't really take this forum for the advantage it really is. well this is just my opinion thats all.

That may be true but whenever I posted here needing something I always got responses.

I usually go to the forum that pertains to my model car...I usually dont think to come to this forum. But sometimes I do to find out what shops people in my area recommend....since I am living in milwaukee and go up to Chicago here and there.

Seems like it. This is hopefully the last thing. I made a bad decision to trust a crappy mechanic. The car is in much better hands now.

Yeah I agree. The last few cubs games I have gone to have been around 40 degrees and it's the middle of May. WTF is that about??? It will pick up. It's practically winter still. And we all know that when winter is over, the construction season begins in Chicago so driving is not very fun anywhere.

Take it easy and watch out for potholes.

This Chicago forum is great. I do wish it had more activity, but from what is currently active, some great threads and posts preside. I also cannot wait until the weather stabilizes in a fashion that makes it more fun and conducive to be outside for car shows. This cold May is really starting to be depressing.
