    I'm in Charlotte, NC...roughly 2 hrs north of Greer if I remember right.

    It's a suburb town of Greenville.

    Greenville itself isn't too bad (aside from Bob Jones University), it isn't the biggest city in the world, but there's plenty to do.

    Greer however, is more or less that small southern town full of grumpy old people and minorities. Not a bad place, but wouldn't be my first choice to live either. But I really don't know the area extremely well...have passed through it enough, but rarely stopped for more than just to get gas.

    I know exactly where Greer is.

    Why the hell would you voluntarily move there?

    If you move anywhere near Greenville you're automatically allowed to beat your woman.

    If you know anything about Greenville its the fact that it is the farthest thing from typical southern. Probably 1 out of ever 3 people you meet are from the north or west. It is far from redneck. Yes there are towns around that are very backwoods-fuck-your-sister's-mom but even Greer is big enough that part of Pelham Rd is considered Greer but its basically in the city.

    There's a couple malls in Greenville, as well as your usual shopping center setups. It's not a dead town. No drag strip though, closest 1/8th mi is probably Rockingham. 1/4 mi is either Charlotte or Atlanta. Not sure about speed shops, got a few friends down there but none are car people. 3 or 4 decent F-body/vette shops 2 hrs up the road here in Charlotte though.

    Might as well come down to MB, always something to do, big car scene, few speed shops, have an 1/8 local strip thats open every now and then and we are 1.5 hours from 1/4 strip in darlington.

    Greer is just another town in a chain of towns surrounding Greenville, you have several smaller towns that are nice and only 10 minutes away. I live in Simpsonville and it's great. I love it here. Mauldin is also close and has some nice areas but the cops are assholes.

    I'm over in the Five Forks area off of Woodruff Rd. After living in Fayetteville NC and Atlanta I'm not ever moving again. The funny thing about Greenville is it's the only town where nobody is ever from, everyone you meet is from somewhere else. I've lived here 11 years now and it has really blown up, back in 97 nothing was open after 9 at night and Woodruff Rd was the country.

    Unfortunately I sold my Z28 after it was wrecked a few years back, I'm waiting on the New Camaro(ticked we couldn't sit in the one at the car show) but leaning towards the Cobalt SS since I have kids now.
