TX Move a car from Kenosha WI to Dallas
- Thread starter acm
- Start date
Truer words never spoken. Way to old to wear shorts and way too lazy for grown up shoes.
So...you pick on soccer moms regularly? Seems wrong on so many levels.

Have the general trip plans.
Only concerns...rumor is it gets cold up there. Do I need a winter set of flip flops?
- DFW to Johannesburg MI to drop off diesel project at the tuners
- Johannesburg to Kenosha taking scenic route around Lake MI
- Pick up tank in Kenosha
- Meet up with @beags86 & @campfire (if we get lucky, we can throw soccer balls @F.S.F.W ...since your truck doesn't run, he can Uber out there and meet us
)
- Haul ass home before I figure out how much I've spent on gas.
When you coming? Still warm enough for sandals... But if its later in the year....
Thinking next Monday...I don't own an actual winter jacket and my shoe choices are dress shoes (work, funerals and all my sisters weddings), steel toe boots or flip flops which are the go to. Not really a "fashion" kinda soccer mom ( that's a friendly
to mr fishfwog)
So no Topeka stop?

It was 80 today, and with humidity it felt 90... Bring whatever light jacket you have for the mornings/nights, as it getting to 50 at night.
Might want them work boots for the morning hours.
Lol
But the heater in the truck works pretty forkin good...
I am a bit worried dropping the diesel off in northern MI. It's a BMW 335D with deletes, meth, upgraded exhaust and intercooler and regular good old fashion Z rated tires.
Plan is to drop it off, get the tune sorted out for the engine, trans and traction control & then fly back and drive it home.
When are snow tires mandatory? Never actually see a set, let alone used them.

That's the million dollar question. Theoretically, should be ready mid/late Oct.
If the weather gets bad, I don't mind leaving it there until it's warm.

So, the basic trip is planned. We're going to drive north, loop around Lake Michigan and go home.
Need to be in Johannesburg either Monday evening or Tuesday morning and Kenosha Tuesday afternoon.
Would like to meet up with some CK5's on the way.
@campfire & @beags86
Any suggestions on routes?
How are the tolls up there? Assuming they charge for the truck and charge by axle for the trailer...
Thx

So I am not the only one. Good.
I had 5 or 6 at the house and the rest were at mu buddy's house in the country.
Every once in a while I would get rid of a car and bring another I would say it was at my buddy's house.
Eventually I started getting rid of 2 for every one I got, and only got running cars. I am now at 5 running and registered and 10 projects.
Soon to drop 2 since I got the urban camo k5.

Toll is $2 per axle crossing Da Bridge. Otherwise you won't see any tolls on the Northern sections of your route.
I'm right where your path crosses the WI/MI border (Marinette/Peshtigo). If you make it this far on Monday I can show you around. If you come through on Tuesday I will try to sneak away from work over lunch break.
I have LOTS of route suggestions, depending on what you wanna see. I'll talk yer ear off worse than a travel agent.
