Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted January 23, 2016 I've lived in the Detroit area my whole life and have never gone to the auto show. I've never been all that into cars, though, so the interest just wasn't there. Still, I feel kinda filthy admitting it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted January 24, 2016 Ha. Dude its a good time even if you're not really into cars. You get to see the future, plus concept cars and new tech that's going in. Ivery went at least every other year since I was a sprat, and I have tickets this year but haven't had a chance to go yet. It's good people watchin too man.

Echolalia 2,961 Report post Posted January 24, 2016 I have a huge man crush on Elon Musk and am so disappointed that they don't participate in the auto show. Its understandable though, because they cant independently sell their cars in Michigan, which I think is bulls***, but whatever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted January 24, 2016 Musk is a damn genius, I can't wait until they start building and using the hyperloop. That thing sounds like it's gonna be awesome. And hes got a damned rocket, ha. It's only a matter of time before hes taking people into space. And theyou give away so much free stuff, ha. It's awesome. I still have one of the booklets from when Nissan first released the gtr in america., I was so excited cuz skylines were always my favorite car but you could only see them overseas. Seeing it in person was magical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kickazz 5,459 Report post Posted January 25, 2016 Was in Detroit for a long weekend several years ago, and attended both the auto show, and a Wings/Hawks game. Anywho - just purchased a 2015 Ford F150 crew cab earlier this month. Ford > GM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anywho - just purchased a 2015 Ford F150 crew cab earlier this month. I'm a very big fan of the newer f150 front ends, super glad they changed them.The grill always made the trucks look smaller, the new ones look as beefy as the truck actually is. Although the tiny tail lights are not my favorite, nor is that lip on the back of the tailgate. Edited January 30, 2016 by jimmyemeryhunter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
