    $300? You mean a month right? Out here is So Cal, that is less than our monthly property tax. You are getting a deal.

    I hit a water filled pothole that must have had a piece of rebar exposed at ~70. Poked a hole in the brake drum and bent the brake backing plate. Good thing it was the mini-van.
    This happened essentially in front of the DOT maint facility on 355 near Elk Grove.
    My mother in law from Austria compared our roads to Romania.

    Quit whining and pay more taxes... seriously, you rich ba$tard... how dare you! Be more patriotic... open that wallet! Its going for a good cause, right?
    Seriously... imagine picketing... the story would be "rich guys upset because their cream puff expensive cars got a scratch"
    Maybe we should all get 12 inch rims, with tires with a 200mm profile... that might be the ticket!
