Default Driving my 2010 Snakeskin Viper ACR in Chicago in January....

Anytime I can be driving my beloved mean green machine on January 8th, in greater Chicagoland, with clean salt free roads and 40 degree temps and the sun shining, I am a happy camper. If only this incredible weather the last 5 weeks would last!

If you like Vipers I guess Can't believe it's 19 years since I picked up mine (not far from you at Schaumburg Dodge).

Looks like you were at Cabela's in Hoffman Estates?????? I just made a deal for a brand new Audi S6 yesterday (trading in my S4), the car is still in port down in Houston, TX so it's going to be a week or so until it gets here.

Lol Mike! I was wondering how long until somebody figured out that I was a Cabelas and that is exactly where I was and you know what department I was headed to also. Lol Very observant my friend.

WOW, a brand new Audi S6 how exciting Mike, awesome, enjoy it in good health my friend!!

Your daughter is absolutely beautiful, I'm also a daddy to a perfect little 3 year old. Without a doubt, being a father is exponentially the most rewarding thing in the whole world!!!!!

Your Viper looks great Jimmy. Glad you have been able to drive it. Looks like your weather has taken a turn for the worse. We are in SW Florida for a couple of months but the Viper is back home in Mass.
