Lol. Sorry... I have country bumpkin family from NC so I'm well familiar with NC culture!
LOL!! Thanks for that!

I don't recall seeing any of that where we're building. My experience with NC so far has been I77 and the mid to southern parts of Lake Norman. Guess I'll need to go out for a ride when I get there!

We have annual emissions & mechanical inspections here in PA. I'm sure it's probably the same in NC.

Inspections have gotten more stringent here in the last couple of years. The now have to lift the vehicle as part of the inspection. My F-250 with a 4 inch lift and 35's can't be lifted by a lot of the quickie places. It wouldn't surprise me at some point for spacers and other mods to be outlawed in NC. It just seems like more and more, the gov wants to live our lives for us. No black helicopters here, just more and more regulation in all areas of life.

Well, I just have to respond to that. Plaintiff #2 was from Va Beach and I used to go up there a lot. You couldn't make me live there. Wayyyyy to many people, to much concrete and paving. Virgina Beach is about as much beach as Brighton Beach or Miami Beach. Used to be Sandbrige was a real beach, but even it isn't anymore. Once you get two blocks from the beach, you could get it confused with any major metropolitan area. There are some of the folks you mention living in North Eastern NC up near the Suffolk to the Va Beach line. But there are some living in the Suffolk area as well.

Lol. Sorry... I used to have family from Va Beach so I'm well familar with both cultures.

Hahaha... touché . I used to live 2 blocks from Towne Centre and it was a madhouse. That's why we vacation in NC... it's WAY more laid back.

Well, they both have good and bad things about them. I still frequent the Ducati-Aprilia dealer near Newport News.
