Hahaha. Phoenix is way gnarlier than Denver. Denver has maybe three to four kinda sketchy neighborhoods. But, I walk around after dark without worries in my neighborhood regularly. When we went to Phoenix/Scottsdale in 98, we got stopped by a cop telling us to turn around because the neighborhood we were about to pass through, 'wasn't safe for white people.' It was some barrio or some shit.

Haha. You're probably right, Grant. There is much of Phoenix that I would love to avoid if I had my Druthers. Let's face it, my tires are not wide enough, and I am missing the required Virgin Mary decal in the back window. Personally, I'd rather scrape by to live in a wealthier neighborhood where I knew no one wanted my shit than to live comfortably a block and a half from the ghetto.

I've always loved the Denver/Spgs area. Lots of DSMers and GVR4 owners in that area. It would be a good place for me. We'll see.

Sounds like something from the A-Team - a school bus tank that BA just knocked together!
