Colorado B.S. Thread

I'm like you, I have light Pods for major light on trail. Was just curious if there was LED equivalent cost wise to the OEM Bulb.

I have a tons of real offroading performance needs before I would ever think about HID mod, etc.

 

Have someone check it out, lots of skylights were busted, including mine.

 

I saw USAA has a mobile crisis team set up in the Safeway parking lot this morning to help process claims.

 

Cool, I talked to State Farm and they are doing the same in a couple days.

 

Question, Does anybody know if hail damage repair is reported or recorded on CARFAX?

 

These days, pretty much everything goes on Carfax.

 

Eh depends. If you go through insurance yeah.. But if not, unlikely. Carfax is a good starting point but not always 100%

 

If it's a insurance claimed repair, then it's possible. All carfax is, is a for profit data scavenger but it's not foolproof.

 

I guess Am screwed,

Am going with the insurance, hundreds of digs and 3 busted windows on my brand new Snugtop Super Sport.

One of the things I like about Toyota Tacoma was the resale values, now I can forget about that.

 

Seriously, they are getting in bed with about every major body and service shop. Unless you find a cash/small shop deal, they know. As an example the service writing system we use is internet based and reports everything we do without any input from the dealer. Every dealer that uses Dealertrack reports without knowing.

 

I don't think it will effect your resale much, it is body panel damage only. completely different then getting rear ended, etc.

 

Cool, I hope so, I love the truck and am planning to keep it for a long time. I just got to make sure I find a good PDR shop.

 

Hey guys,

I'm looking at a potential job opportunity around the Centennial/Englewood/Colorado springs area in the next year. I have a wife and two boys that'll be around 2 and 5 when it's about time to move. If you were in my position, out of those three cities I've mentioned, where would you move to and why? I've always lived on the coast (been in the Navy for 8 years and I'm from eastern NC) and am very excited for an opportunity for a change of scenery. I'm looking forward to some opinions and advice. Thanks in advance.

 

Englewood is expensive for houses. Especially with a family of 4, finding a house larger than 1,000 square feet that won't cost your life savings will be hard. Colorado Springs is cheaper but about an hour+ south of Denver depending on traffic and where you'll be working. I've lived on the border of Centennial and Aurora in a decent neighborhood off Smokey Hill and Buckley. Around the corner was ghetto though, that's how most of that area is. You def get more house for your money in Centennial/Aurora.

Edit: I lived in Centennial 6 years ago and I meant that one neighborhood is good, across the street can not be so good

 

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the info!

 

Edited my post.

Do you know where you'll be working? DTC? Downtown? Buckley AFB?

 

This. Your CO Springs possibility threw me off.

 

@rjsimz The 3 places you listed are far from a complete list of where you can live and so widely separated it would be easiest for us to recommend places based on where you will actually work, like what Mike is asking.

 

Ah, sorry for such a broad area. Buckley AFB. I'm on my off time and just looking at potential areas where I may be able to find work in the near future.

 

If you're ok with traffic or work early enough to miss it all (like 6am) then Englewood isn't horrible, just pricey. I'm there now and it takes me 30 mins with mild traffic and I work right next to Buckely. Rush hour and you might get home before midnight haha. There's places all over Aurora/Centennial around the Buckley area. Like I said though one neighborhood could be good and the next is crack shacks. Not sure how traffic is from Parker, but that is another area to keep in mind (south of Aurora) but also pricey.
