Twice spotted in Oswego CR/W MC with Wisconsin plates. Tried to wave but drivers eyes were glued forward.

Parked next to CR/W MC in town for dental visit. Looked like a students vehicle.

Naperville near Fox Valley Mall, a dirty B/B MSC with stripes. Wave but no wave back.

Anyone notice, the weather breaks and out comes the MINI's?
