I went to the Woodward Dream Cruise late, when it was starting to rain, and didn't really see much that was all that new or exciting. There were lots and lots of 60's and 70's muscle cars, which get old after a few minutes. Here are a few photos I grabbed.
A carefully restored 1965 Volvo. With Arabic script on the rear window.
A not yet carefully restored Volvo. 
This dog was posing in front of his owner's hot-rod. 
The street preachers took up shop outside the Hall OfThe Mountain King, near some Avantis.

Near the Ford area, some Edsels (still ugly after all these years). In the upper right is an experimental hydrogen fuel cell powered Edge.

This horned monster truck was cruising through theBirmingham shopping district. Too much, dude, too much.

A segway nerd scoots past a non-plussed Oakland County sheriff. The Dream Cruise experience was under-whelming. Too many muscle cars, not enough really old cars. I did see a restored deuce-and-a-half WWII vintage truck cruising around, which was neat. There was also a cube van plastered with huge photos of dismembered fetuses, to protest abortion, which was not. I am pro-life, but man, don't rub it in my face like that. There were a lot of for sale signs on cars--if you were in the market for an expensive toy, you could have done very well at the Dream Cruise this year.
