The windy city name comes from the reputation of the politicians being very vocal and nothing to do with the weather.

But yes it gets cold there. I am 4 hours north of Chicago right now and its -6 but thankfully no wind.

Could have been a combination, times i have been there its been damn windy. But good to know its true origin! Thumbs Up!

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine
