    I have to say I have Never in my life seen more Taco's in 1 place than the island of Kauai. Many were lifted 3-6" and more. Awesome. The island is fabulous and the people were cool. The TSA on the other hand were complete Dickheads and act like there Shit don't stink. I have never been treated as Shitty in an Airport than tryin to leave here today. F.U. TSA...U Suck F'n Dong!

    Lol I think this goes for the whole state of Hawaii. There are taco's all over the Islands! It's like a friggin taco cruz just going to the mall. I see 2 at every stop light! (maybe not that bad, but pretty damn close).

    There are alot of places to play in the mud over here. Even here on Oahu which is the most commercialized island, you can have alot of fun in the mud/sand!!!

    Use some leave man! I'm trying to go back for vacation once this deployment is done. It's always nice to get back and visit but yea too expensive to live there. Plus not enough good jobs.

    Yeah you could buy 3 houses in some parts of the mainland for what you'd pay for just 1 here. Cost of living in Hawaii is pretty crazy. :(

    Haha yup. Guess that's why so many people migrating to the west coast of the mainland. I see tons of locals in Vegas and LA when I visit. lol. I know those cities aren't "cheap", but it's still cheaper than Hawaii.

    WA and CO too. I got family in both states. One thing I push to friends and fam - get off the island and get an education adn experience. You can always move home.

    Actually Vegas IS cheap. My HS classmate (AF guy) got PCS'd to England and gotta short sell his Vegas house. Bout to let it forclose because he cant get any buyers even at the low price its at now.

    HIYota - where you from?
    Im a WHS grad but lived all over the island. I trying to use leave but I stay in my mastes program. Most of my leave is so I can study and take finals. Trying to make it back for my boys first birthday though! The fam dieing to throw one huge party.

    Didn't see too many Tacomas when I was in Kauai June 2010. But I did finally see an All-Pro bumper in person when I was there. Ordered one for myself the day I came home haha.

    If you didn't see that much Tacomas you must not have left your room much! Just about every other house has a Tacoma.
