See You Down The Road

After many years serving the classic car community, Wisconsin Collector Car will be shutting down at the end of 2024. Thank you for all of the car show memories!

    Marshal,

    You sold me on your justification!

    Me too, this fantastic car would be very hard to pass up!

    That’s good to hear that they will continue to do the car show, is it planned for the VFW site again this year?

    Welcome to the forum! You should look specifically at the state(s) that you plan to visit, but the DOT (Department of Transportation) for each state should have a drivers handbook (hopefully online too) that details the rules and regulations as well as good driving techniques in general and specific to that state. For example, here’s a link to the one for Wisconsin:

    I am especially interested in that corvette concept car, that is a very interesting design

    Our national debt is at an all time high, we can’t keep over-extending ourselves more and more

    I’m really sorry to hear about this, that sort of violation is very frustrating.

    What hosting service are you using now? I would highly recommend a linux server over a windows one

    I wonder if any of them will include that new Sync technology by Microsoft that lets you just speak commands to the car, that looked interesting

    There are other reports (by some of the same scientists in the initial reports) that claim that the global warming peaked years ago. That it is actually cooler now than ten years ago. And even other statements claiming a peak in the 1930’s.

    For me I have seen nothing but opinions. Nature goes thru cycles. When I go outside right now it is colder than I ever remember any December, yet we are not setting any record temps. Most of the records I see on the news are from the 1930’s and the early to mid 1990’s supporting the other claims.

    I don’t know what to believe, but I do know I won’t believe Al Gore. He won’t even debate the possibility of being wrong, and that makes me feel he is.

    The IPCC (International Panel for Climate Change) has released several reports over the last year, concluding that global warming is real and man-made. This was one of the first reports they released this year:
    http://www.usatoday.com/weather/climate/globalwarming/2007-02-01-ipcc-report_x.htm

    IPCC is made up of scientists from over 100 countries.

    More information about the consensus:

    The Chalmers Jewelers show is ok, even though they dont know the definition of “tuner car” even though they had a tuner class (a Corvette c5 won because of its loud factory stereo….call me crazy but a stereo doesnt define “tuner”).

    Agreed, it is a low-key show that is fine if you’re just looking for a place to drive to on a Saturday

    I am almost ashamed to tell you that I am a Charter customer, only because there were so few options when I moved into Fitchburg. It was either Charter or an antenna on the roof of my house, and the neigborhood covenants prohibited rooftop antenna.

    I will be dropping Charter pretty soon, primarily because of the Big 10 Network and the NFL network not being available. I also don’t watch 80% of the channels that are provided in my package of service. It’s a shame you can’t pick and choose the channels that you would really like to have in your package.

    I will need to replace the TV’s in my home before January 2009, so I will replace Charter at the same time.

    I think you’ll be happy with the satellite service and like you said that’s a perfect time to upgrade – get a digital signal for your digital tv. I do wonder if satellite receivers (the non-HDTV ones) will actually be affected by the change in 2009 because they are a digital signal, not analog like cable dontknow.gif

    I think Obama’s fresh look and ideas is what we need to revitalize politics in America today. I feel like the politicians in Washington are constantly dragging their feet, not getting anything done, and lying all at once. Someone like Obama can change that, who knows to what degree but even a small change would be good
