this is legal, and kind of fun, can be costly. find a bone yard that will rent you out the shell of a car that matches the neighbors, swap them. cost me 250.00 to do it to the owner of our company about 7 years back.

Being a native Marylander myself, I know of that one, but I doubt I'd do that in AZ. Trees are rare out there, not like in MD where there are hundreds out your back door. Man do I miss deciduous forests.... this pine crap $uck$

Not many trees in my neighborhood, pretty new area. We have alot of bushes and shrubs, per the HOA. We dont have that many grass front lawns either. I miss being in Denver and seeing alot of trees. Anything is better than cactus LOL

Alot of trees in Denver??? My dear, you need to visit the East! 1.5miles from where I grew up in Maryland is Patapsco State Park - 14,000 acres, and probably 13,000 of them are treed. Take I-70 east and when you hit PA, you'll be driving between walls of leafy trees.... Yeah, it's humid there, and it $uck$, but the woods with rivers & streams and top-notch...

Compared to AZ there were alot of trees in Denver to me. I dont mind the humidity and all that crap. Anything is better than 115* here. I also want a true winter, not one where I wear flip flops to go xmas shopping.

For trees around here...it sorta depends on where you go. There are some parts of town where the trees are pretty thick, usually older neighborhoods.

And of course the mountains, pine trees and aspens everywhere.

Yeah out East there aint Sheet! It's the plains baby.

Are you SUUURE that's what you want? Like Kris and his facial hair dreams, be careful what you wish for. Here is what a true winter looks like:







For perspective, that snow was up to my belly button. I am 5'6"

I miss those days Lisa. We lived there for almost 3 years. I would go back in a heartbeat but money is better down here for Troy.

Thats the first winter I had the truck, and learned pretty quick that 4 low is a bad idea in a truck that weighs 8,800 lbs in 4 foot of snow. lol

Cris I don't know how you tolerate the hot. Randy entertained ideas of moving back to El Paso, a city he spent a short time in. I said oh HELL NO.

I think it could work her in FL though, everyone seems to have a good sized tree in there front flower bed and then on in front of the house. Id think it would work on the bigger shrubs though too.

I dont tolerate it. I spend as much time inside as I can. In the winter, or what we call winter here, you cant keep me inside.
