I ain't scared!!
« on: July 05, 2009 - 09:24:06 PM »
We had a little break in the weather last week and I decided to drive the Cuda to work a couple of days. I drive 20 miles one way in bumper to bumper rush hour Charlotte traffic. I loved the looks I got as I made my way through traffic!! Maybe not the smartest thing to do but boy was it fun! :clapping: :biggrin:

Very good, I enjoy the looks cruising on the Highway.  I don't enjoy the people that drift into my lane while staring though.LOL

Todd,

I was on Hwy74/ East Independence Blvd. Its the main road into uptown. The Mooresville area is very nice and surrounds Lake Norman, however the commute into Charlotte is as bad or worse than what I go through!! :2thumbs:
