Royal, Socal is a big place you can't make a general assumption and assume that's the case.

Waizz I live in NEW YORK. I love hearing how all of you are going crazy about the roads out there in California. I DARE you to try and take your car through the boroughs of New York... R.I.P to every Z on this thread... I love the look and I'm getting used to scrapping around. I look at it like this.. "You need to pay in order to play" ... I FU#$IN HATE living in New York when it comes to our roads.

There are terrible roads everywhere..that's why you learn to adapt to where you can and can't drive, what lanes and specific area there are bumps and holes and what not. And keeping ramps in the trunk for emergency cases like unavoidable speed bumps lol.

I was thinking the same thing. Roads up north are 10x worst than the south. Places north have to deal with snow and salt which literally eats and decomposes the asphalt. Not to mention the heavy plow trucks that dig and scrape into the pavement to remove snow. There is no such thing as nice roads up north, unless they were recently redone. Repaved roads last under 2yrs, because after a big snow storm with extensive amount of salt and then plowing, the road looks like it was attacked by jack hammers lol. I hate NJ!! They don't even make an effort to repave the roads. I broke a f#ckin axle driving around NJ, at under 30mph, in a slammed car. Dodging potholes just to hit adjacent potholes...smh
It was a dream come true when I drove around Texas and FL. My suspension and my back loved it! SoCal has hills, so it's more so that your front bumper hates kissing the road.

Iv lived up and down the east coast and every state had "bad" roads...Its like you guys want to have them the way you bicker about it.

"No no no man, the roads I drive on are the worst..your sh*tty roads cant compare. What ya say to that hu?"
