Cars represent freedom. Since the invention of the automobile, people have been able to expand their worlds by traveling independently at high speeds. This made owning a car an essential part of pursuing "The American Dream." The Woodward Dream Cruise started as a fundraiser for a new soccer field in Ferndale, Michigan. Since then, it has become the world's largest one-day automotive event. More than 40,000 classic cars and 1.5 million people cruise up and down Woodward Avenue (M1), America's first concrete paved road. This tradition of "cruising" has become a way for many to honor and celebrate the cars that define their generation. In the Motor City, people have an undeniable passion for these symbols of craftsmanship while truly embracing the freedom that comes with driving one. These classic car lovers also remind us of the potential for progress when pride meets innovation. There's nothing quite like being in the driver's seat. This is Dream Cruisin'.
