Ok, we’ll admit, Changing Gears has not always had a friendly tone toward Austin. But, mean-spirited jokes aside, Austin does seem to come up on this site a lot more than other non-Midwest cities. We’ve even written about Austin’s hopes to build its own local auto industry.

So how about it Austin? Do you want to go steady with Detroit?
