Dream Cruise

See related article

Of course Detroit WAS ONCE the Motor Capital of THE WORLD, but let's not hang the word DETROITERS onto any aspect of the cruise. The Detroit we know today is a decaying shell of what it was even 30 years ago.

The Cruisers of old ALWAYS cruised north of 8 mile, not because of racial issues or any other bias. Mostly because of the Big Boy, at 10 mile, the Totem Pole, the Suzy Q.,etc... I take offense to you calling me a Detroiter just because I own and show off a classic car.

Don't push your politically correct opinion onto us, as well as insulting us by being so PC. I REALLY used to love Detroit, but, now, I only go through there to get to Ohio and other points south.
