dude... down here sometimes you have no choice, you swerve to miss one and end up hitting another, it is almost inevitible to drive down a freeway here while cruising along at 70 and then BAM a whole patch of really F'd up road with a slew of potholes strewn across your way with no way to avoid ALL of them. Basically you try to avoid the largest of them and then take whatever comes after and keep your fingers crossed that you didnt flatten a tire while doing so. Why do you think trucks are the most common form of transportation down here? Its because driving on the freeway sometimes is as bad as being offroad!

See the morons over at the Texas higway department think that the way you fix a pothole is to cut a square out of the concrete roadway, then fill up the hole with black top. And what results is the first time it rains hard or freezes over, the filler falls apart and then your left with a bigger hole than they started with. After enough of them they ask the state for more bond money so that they can build a new road on top of the old one and then turn it into a toll-road and charge your *** twice for it. And of course in the meantime taking no responsibility for the damage and wear and tear it takes out on your ride. On the other hand you have the different cities fighting over who is supposed to be collecting the road repair money for the roads and alot of the times you can simply cross across a city(or suberb) city line or boundery and the road can go from super smooth to what looks like the aftermath of an aerial attack patched by illegals with blindfolds on.

 

^^your preaching to choir, i lived in texas for 6 years, in sachse right outside of dallas.

 

off-topic: @ mulletman11

did you ever resolve your issues with I-Ride_Neon and whatever it was that he bought from you?
I am not on anyones side on this one, just curious since there has been a terrible rash of people having problems purchasing items from others on the forum.

And on a side note, yeh your roads out where you are arent the greatest either!

 

yes, everyone recived there items about a week ago, and i have 3 diffrent items in the mail right now to other ppl on this forum and the org

iride recieved his tach on hos birthday, and somehow hooked it up wrong, and blew his motor, like complete taosted it, he has not yet told me how
i feel like i should have been locked up a little longer, he would still have his car

yea philly has potholes, some bad ones, but not texas sized

 

cool, hopefully your name has been cleared since you've been here for awhile now.
