One more reason I like living in Oregon. Twisty roads are just miles outside the city.

I challenge you to find one in South FL or 4 hours away for that matter.... It is pathetic really..

This is the truth. Tons of multi-lane straight, flat roads with a 5 minute stoplight every 1/4 mile. I've explored south florida quite a bit and there are some nice roads for cruising, but no good ones I found for driving.

My friend moved to Boca Raton years ago. His first trip home he begged me to come visit him so he could drive my car around for a while. He was going bonkers. Of course, he eventually gave in and sold the 944 turbo for a 5-series.

I'll be perfectly honest. The roads down there were one of the biggest reasons I didn't move down. That was the territory I covered for years, and my company would have gladly moved me down there (the cost of a move would have been less than weekly flights). I just couldn't do it because of the roads.

I think we are spoiled in Austin. All around the city we have the hill country with roads that wind around and small hills with scenery to drive around!

I'm happy to have Myles Standish state forest close by:

I want to move though, for other reasons... *grumble*
