I know the owner of that White FoST. He's the one who told me to get the exhaust I have today.. :(

I feel like with all the time I spend on there, I should recognize that bank but I don't. I took a Fiesta ST out on Woodward today, and man was it bad.

Well if your good pals it wouldn't hurt to offer him a ride to work in the morning.

Christ, how much rain did you guys get. I'm in Toledo, and we had much needed rain, but nothing like this.

I didn't even plan to, but I left work at 3 today and drove all of these roads right before it got terrible. Good timing I guess.

I'm not sure whether to say this Silverado is lucky to not have flopped over like the camper or unlucky to have ended up in that position...

I don't live close enough to him though. I met him through the local Focus Group. There are two other members down the street from there if he's still around there.

We got dumped on. It was kind of raining all day, and then from like 4-7 it crazy down poured. My room mate on got stuck on the highway for like an hour and a half.

I'd definitely say lucky. Looks like the driver can still get to work in the morning.

The next camping trip on the other hand …. might have to be put off.

He'll probably be fine, obviously having a rough night though.

For sure, we're conversing on the Facebook group page right now, and someone from Woodward took the liberty of making a meme out of it. SMH

Ohh but it did rain that much. I live close to a raised train track in midtown and every block that dips under it, is flooded out …. same for the highways too.

12 hours later and my commute still sucked …. 94 partly closed and a bunch of surface streets are closed too. Mother nature decided Detroit needed a good rinse.

Why on earth are you on an enthusiast car blog then? You may have other favorites but the performance value of the Vette is undisputed.

Was this taken by you/someone you know? If so, what car?

I'm just waiting to see the craigslist ads following this.... "a little water damage, but runs fine"

Nope not me, and I don't know if I should put the guys name up but here is the other photo he uploaded.

We're both just part of the Woodward FB group. Its a local Detroit car enthusiast group, with roughly 5,600 members.

Either way, maybe its a GM product? Malibu?

My friends in RO was canoeing down his street. Also saw a picture of a Jeep Cherokee pulling a guy in a tube.

I saw a video of 2 people in a red canoe, was that them?

(linking the video would do no good because its from a private group).

Apparently from "11 and cooledge"

Hairdresser car? When you make dumb comments like that you lose all credibility. If a 650 horsepower car that can do over 200 mph is a hairdresser car what do you drive?

Let's not forget the other category, old white person cars. Also I don't like the 'Vette just because of that, it also competes directly with the dodge viper, so there's another reason :)

For some strange reason, most of these idiots think it is "fun" to try driving through deep water, instead of turning around and going another route.

IIRC, this actually belongs to a friend of someone on here....
