    Honestly I'm not sure :( They were going the opposite direction and I only saw it from a distance.

    Are those Indiana plates? Only seen one other Murc around here and it was Yellow. A couple of G's floating around also.

    Here's a pic I took late last summer. License plate reads, "IMSPDING" Please forgive my fat finger in the picture. Was trying to snap the pic as fast as possible. Good thing too because he nailed it and was gone.

    Wooooo!

    Yep, he had Indiana plates.

    I actually spotted it parked at Continental Motors on Ogden Ave. as I passed it getting on 294. A couple of minutes later I saw him coming up behind me at a pretty good clip... He hopped off at 95th St.

    Look what was following me around northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. I tried to lose them by turning, twisting at nearly every intersection I saw. :D
