I'm born and raised from Atlanta where the speed limit is 55 on the freeways but the flow of traffic is 80+. It'd be nothing to get in a line of cars doing 100+ though.

In washington you're lucky if youre doing 5 over the speed limit with how slow the drivers are here.

I was driving on the back roads to/from Woodburn during the ridiculous rain.
I was sliding around pretty much every corner. It was a cheek clenching experience to say the least.

In all seriousness, my new job is going to have me traveling around WA quite a bit, so if I end up in Tacoma I'll try not to forget about you.

I got a +5mph over the speed limit on the freeway just north of Longview last summer.

The stock tires suck, only good thing about them is MPG

Very similar to the last job (labor organizing) just much longer term and slightly better hours/pay.

Now I just need to find a place to live on the East side, which is proving to NOT be easy...
