🚦👻 Halloween Horsepower and Santa Speeding into Season

iDSC Weekly - 10.29.25

Good morning,

We’re rolling up on an interesting automotive week(end). Because it’s a rare situation where trunk or treats and toy drives are overlapping!

Halloween is on Friday, Oct 31st. Then Sunday, Nov 2nd we get smacked with daylight saving time. Aka. no-light time as the days get shorter and shorter for awhile.

The cool thing is that the holidays are here! And since becoming a Dad I love this time of year! I hope you do too as it’s a great time for cool car camaraderie - so get out and enjoy!

Drive on,

-T

P.S. Don’t forget to add your group to our new Car Club Listings! It’s free. 😄
