Heading to Proteam (Napoleon,OH) in the morning to do a pre purchase inspection. Would like to head to Detroit to do another afterwards. Wondering what the weather/road conditions might look like. Any help appreciated.

Lol, I can handle the inspections. I can handle the driving. But the seller may not like me arriving to his garage while he is sleeping. Rest assured I will get them both done.

Are you buying from pro team? Or are you just going to look? Curious, because I may be up there in the morning also.

Thanks for the info. Directions were perfect even though the car in Plymouth was not what the buyer was looking for.
