You live in NY and don't know what Upstate is?

Basically, any part of NY that isn't considered NYC is called Upstate.

OP -Welcome to the forum!

I'm in the Southern Tier/Finger Lakes Region. Where are you located?

Cool stuff. I grew up in that area. Know it well. Binghamton to Cortland to Syracuse to Alex Bay - 1000 Islands. Over to Ithaca and Cayuga Lake up to Oneida Lake over to Otsego Lake at Cooperstown...

Beautiful region. Lots of nice cars too.
