Darn, don't think I can make it tomorrow.

I have to change a starter in a Camry and do like 3 oil changes.

Fun, fun, fun!

Change the Starter early morning and come down and meet us. Change the oil next weekend. 1 week won't kill a car will it. Please come down as it will be a beautiful day and we want to meet you.

OK guys, Champps opens at 11:00 AM. I've made reservation for 11:30, but we will meet in the parking lot at 11:00 and chat. Parking all together should not be a problem, but the first one there should make sure they park in a spot where we can all be together, and if someone tries to park anywhere close to you, just tell them that section is reserved for the XF club.

See you all there.

Hey everyone have a great day and a lot of fun! It's cool and showers here (Mi) so can't even take our XF out for a ride. Went last night saw one XF parked in Royal Oak none on Woodward, in fact only saw 2 other cars with their tops down. Whoops... a black XF from down the street just drove by! Guess that's our "cruise" for the day.

Miss being there -
Ann and Gary

Thanks for your thoughts. The weather is sunny and in the 70's here.
PERFECT DAY. I will post some pics on the forum tonight.

I am running late, I thought i saw a cell number in here.

I am about to jump on the highway in a couple of minutes here and then it should only be about a 20 min drive depending on traffic.

Thanks FP and VALKRYDERGUY for getting the Chi-Town Midwest meet setup!

It was a great time... and I cannot wait to see the pictures you collected, but I have yet to hear the "Last-Man" Joke?

I wish I could. I am from Chicago but live in VA now. Just bought my Crossfire 10 days ago. I am watching the Bears game at the moment...would prefer to be there watching it though.
