    The roads around here...

    Suck ass! So many potholes and whoop sections lol. Its to the point where sometimes I don't even want to drive my TA, which blows because I love driving it. Anyone else deal with shitty roads with there f-bod? I think I'm gonna have to move down south.

    Sadly now demodded :(

    Snow and cold winters will do that to the roads.

    One of the many reasons I will never again live in a cold winter climate.

    I am sure you guys have poor roads in Michigan, but you don't even make the top 5 for worst roads in America.

    Yeah! We're Number 2!

    Our F-bird goes back on the road tomorrow after its winter lay up. I will be dodging potholes and busted up edges around here. Many family members and friends have bent wheels and broken suspension parts over the years.

    Another thing I forgot to mention, I guess painted lines are optional around here. Like half the 2 lane roads you cant see the dividing line and people just wonder back and forth between what should be lanes.

    Yea, I heard Michigan roads are really bad haha. Texas roads must be nice.

    I thought we had the worst but we'll take #2. We might not have the worst but we definitely have more that might be just as bad.

    Luckily I know where there are decent roads. Just gotta dodge the pot holes.

    For one thing I dont think my car will ever drive on Philly streets. It would definitely fall apart. The streets are the worst. There are manholes right in tracks of each lane down Broad Street (the main street that runs N-S).

    Im not even gonna mention the roads that trolleys run on. .......Yeah they're bad.

    I just moved into a house near center city but the t/a cant come with cause the roads suck and no way im parking it on the street in the hood.

    Guess it'll just have to stay a garage queen at my parents.

    Texas roads are full of little rocks that jump up and break your window. Everyone there has a broken window they think it's normal.

    Minnesota roads suck ass too. Down by my dad's, their way of fixing the ruts in the paved road was to just pave over the ruts ONLY. Seriously, driving on some of those is terrible at best. Here in the Twin Cities, there are potholes that actually can blow out tires quite easily, the DOT had to do something about it about a month ago because of all the accidents it caused. There are also tons of deep, wide cracks all over the place that suck also. I just love this state somedays.

    People have always asked me why I don't drop my Camaro more than it is. Oklahoma/Tulsa roads are exactly why I don't.

    I had the windshield replaced in the 98 just last week because of this. Here in Az you get full glass coverage because of the heat.

    Turns out that the *THUD* I heard a couple of months ago was me running into a "jumping rock" at 80 on the freeway. I heard it but couldn't find where it hit. This last week the temps were up to the mid-90's here in Phoenix. I come out to the car after work and saw a foot long crack in the windshield. Traced it and found a small place where the rock had hit just below the drivers side wiper where it sits in the park position.
