The time has come, friends, for you to either rejoice or commence hermithood for the weekend. For some, the Dream Cruise brings great joy, harking back to a simpler time when cars were something special. For others, it's a gas-fizzling, smoke-filled weekend of ridiculous traffic and tremendous waste. Whether you're a fan or foe, Royal Oak, Pontiac, Ferndale, Berkley, Birmingham and Bloomfield Township all have special events that take place in accordance with the cruise.
