    Yeah but it's like I say..I hate driving through metropolitan areas when I'm trying to get somewhere. Put on cruise control in Kansas and knod off for a couple hours and make sure you don't bump your steerin wheel..you'll be fine.

    It's only between 53-60 mph under very light throttle, but I'll still schedule something.

    Lots of snow in North Park right now, in fact, don't think any of those roads would be passable about any winter. I got stuck in the snow on Silver Creek in June a few years back.

    That being said, there's some really cool areas there that not a lot of people know about. Silver Creek, Jack Creek, Calamity Pass, Montgomery Pass, etc.

    For future reference most tech companies have a recycle program and will accept any and all electronics for free. I'll let you guys know when the next one is at my office if anybody needs to off load anything electronic.

    Not meant to be political, or complain, it is what it is... Just wanted to open the eyes of the majority who might not have access to see the other side of the "Affordable Healthcare." The way the country improves is by people seeing both sides of the issue, which seems to be a huge issue in itself. I know most have employer sponsored healthcare, may have seen premiums go up a little bit, but when you dont see the other side...since you dont have to, it may not be understood.

    I am well aware that there are a few good things in the act among the 71,000 bad. Theres no reason those cant/wont be kept with the replacement, whatever that may be.


    I ran the numbers just to prove a point for someone who told me to:
    Obviously he did not understand that nothing is free... and someone has to compensate for those who are sick/old/tobacco users who use insurance all the time. Thats where I come into the "affordable care act" to fill the coffers for the latter while having no access to the same benefits. :wave:


    I was trying to get a plan that halfway resembled what I had when I had employer sponsored health insurance...low deductible, some basic check-up exams covered per year. I didn't get close, but its as close as I could get. I am above the threshold that is always touted about getting those significant incentives/subsidies.

    With all plans, if I go out of network... ZERO coverage.

    Not meant to bitch or whine. I have foregone wasting money on the sham, and pay the penalty each month instead. And not much chance I'll switch back to being a monday-friday employee... ever. So its just a part of the trade-off.

    No political agenda quotes will be replied to... but if you see something about it that is different than what I see, I'm happy to listen to learn, as well as others.

    I'm on a health share program for $150/month. Not much more expensive than the penalty IIRC.

    Cheapest for me is the $234, I was on it the first half of last year until I realized it was a bit more of a donation than just paying the penalty. And the same "benefits" of being uninsured. If something happens... bankruptcy either way. :D
