I'm originally from Munster, IN. I lived and worked in Chicago from 1995 to 2007 and recently moved to Geneva. I kept my loft in River North Chicago, but don't get to the city as much as I would like to. I commute from Geneva to Rockford daily which is 108 miles daily, but it only takes about an hour each way. Don't worry, I don't subject my Z4 to those commuter miles...I have a 2007 Honda Fit Sport as my commuter car and I get about 38 miles per gallon.
