    Sounds like a long lunch break. Can't remember my sales guy but if you get in there tomorrow I'd bet they might hook you up with something if you can't decide right then.

    I think that's the one i had, real comfy.

    And yeah, just buy one, that's the only one that needs to be comfy. They will likely have slider and seat brackets for first gen as well

    I love the people who come here and tell me Denver sucks compared to wherever-the-fuck CA/TX/etc because it doesn't have the booming nightlife/food culture/artisinal dog yoga. If it's better just go back :poking:

    Basically not a fan of what others bring from their state into yours IE driving, culture, attitude etc?

    You must be from out of state. Where are you from Cali or Texas?

    I see the assumptions stay with one that now lives in another state themselves.

    I guess curiousity killed the cat, but it really shows how welcoming one is to others when you ask said question.

    Enough to make it a lot of fun!
    We don't hate all out of staters. But we hate most because they all want to turn this great state into the state they left.

    That just sounds like anti-growth and thinly-veiled politics to me. I don't think anyone moves from the city to a rural area or smaller town and wants to turn it into the big city - the complaints are usually exactly opposite of that. "As soon as I moved in they should have shut the door. I moved here because it was like X, and now it's turning in to what I moved away from." Comparing major cities to small towns just doesn't make any sense. And I would strongly disagree that cities of same size would have similar ideologies past a certain point (that point being where rural land use, like mining, ranching, and farming, are no longer the primary economic force but at the very least equal to industrial/tech/etc.). I'm from the state that had Pence for governor before he was VP, and I'll guarantee that Indy has more in common with rural CO than it does with Denver. Even the major cities here along the front range are very distinct. I'm not entirely sure what all we're including under 'ideology', or if that's just supposed to mean 'politics'.

    I'm sure it's the 'collapse' of CA and TX that see so many people moving to those other states, and nothing to do with the fact that those two states alone are 20% of the US population. And native is irrelevant - nobody from here, including us transplants, likes the increased housing costs. I will grant that unfortunately CA does have some fairly strong influence there, because most parts of the country it's more expensive to move here, but for places like CA housing costs are practically a three for one sale coming here. But the demand is really more a function of population and density, and growth gonna growth.

    At any rate I hate when politics and such intrude on my wheeling forum (not to mention politics are banned topic for the most part) so I'm really going to try and this thread conversation die. Not that it looks like that'll happen any time soon. :rolleyes:

    I can't disagree with any of that really. Possibly because it's too general. :D Nobody likes growth, and less so the more rapid it is.

    Eh, no.
    Because I post in Texas, DFW area, kind of like I’m posting in a Colorado area?
    Exactly what is a California attitude?
    I like your optimism

    I have met many good friends and wheeling buddies who moved here from another state.

    Some people come here and give the rest of their state a bad rep. Really comes down to the person

    I'm not sure what your end goal is but your combative attitude won't get you too far around here :luvya:
