Smile Z Drivers Around South Chi-town

I'm chillin' in Tinley Park, IL for the next two weeks and was wondering if there were any Zed Heds around. Give me a shout and let's talk Z's!!!!

Installing a robot line at Tower Automotive.

With the roads around here I can see why you sold your Z. I'm glad I didn't drive mine over, it would be in pieces. She's back in the garage until next spring.

lol illinois is like doing a complete road re-vamp or something every highway around here has been re-paved, widened, and or extended and MANY local roads completely re-done as well... its kind of annoying since it all is worked on at once but the end result is nice

Tinley isn't bad but the roads to and from the plant are horrible. I80 and I57 sure are nice though. Makes me want to SPEEEEEEEED. Not much around for the twist and turns the Z likes so much.

Sounds like Ohio. Every road all at once is torn up, takes about 3 years to finish, but once it's done it's nice.

Got sent home early. Worked out good for me I get to drive my Z again. I hate the cars they give us for rentals but I hate putting the crazy high miles on the Z too. Enjoy the new roads, they were actually quite nice.
