    How about when the whole fucking town has 45 degree driveways for everything?

    QFT. I'll try to take a picture of a road that's right next to my house.

    ...but that, or anything else would never be enough to make me have to roll 4x4 status.

    You should seriously visit my city. Bring your car over. And a few oilpans. They are expensive here - I wonder why...

    Learn how to drive it over the huge gashes in the roads that they don't cover up? They don't even have signs around for construction half the time. I bent a wheel on a 3 inch deep section of the road they cut out, and didn't have any sense to put up cones or signs at night time.

    lol we pay our government out the ass too.. This is what they do.. They fix the roads then dig them back up a few weeks later to do work.. which is very shitty.. in the end it just ends up like that original post. This was taken in the Bahamas not florida. All the roads arent like this though.

    How the hell do you have potholes in Florida? Everywhere I've been down there, the roads are pretty good. The surface is very coarse for the heavy rains, but there usually aren't any potholes.

    All of my cars are lowered and I wouldn't have it any other way. I live in a very wealthy town, so the roads are pretty well maintained considering I'm in Ohio. They ought to be though, since we pay taxes out the ass. If you ever go over to Pennsylvania, the roads are equivalent to a 3rd world country.

    I have a -40/-30 drop and for our roads it's often too low. Our roads get better every year, but still things like sewer lid sticking out few inches above the road can be spotted on smaller streets.

    And in some smaller cities, when winter leaves uncovering new holes in roads, they... read it carefully - PAINT THE AREA AROUND THE HOLE - to make it visible... They go on with fixing (filling with tar that is) stuff when road looks like swiss cheese (only white).
