Interesting. I know how to shave a little time off the trip... I have a
friend that lives in Rochester, MI (notrh of Detroit) so I make that half of
the trip at least once a month....it's only about 4 hours to detroit at 80 -
90 mph.... (yeah, I'm "that guy," sorry)
If you take I-94 east to MI-14 east and then jump on I-275 north to I-696
east and to I-75 south (i think) you can catch the tunnel (or bridge) to
windsor and shave at least an hour off of your trip. It's a little more
complicated than just taking I-94 east to I-75 north, but it gets you there
that much quicker.

Yeah, convoys are cool, we used to convoy in our mustangs (there were about
15 of us) to the track and all over in general. You gotta love the looks
you get.
