    My truck goes in for it's surgery tomorrow anyway haha. I'm driving my moms Ford Escape that I'm hoping doesn't catch on fire...it keeps burning oil real bad for some reason. It's all I smell in the cab and you can see the smoke coming out from under the hood. -dies-

    Possibly. Dads going to look at it. I was going to get a rental car but they weren't going to give me anything worth a crap and I didn't want to have a car and suddenly it decided to blizzard.

    Don't know anything about Mech E stuff, and OChem scared the hell out of me, but I'll trade physics and DiffEQ knowledge for 1st-gen building experience anytime if you feel like you need a boost next semester. :D

    Are you asking in housing or general? Few buddies and I rented a house there, had 5 bedrooms (pretty small rooms).
    I didn't really notice if other things were priced higher compared to other Denver suburbs. There's tons of stores to choose from and they were still building when I left

    Heat of the summer got to mine, and if I would have taken the heat shield off the first time I would have been ok.

    User error I believe :)

    From what I remember it's all pretty standard, only downside is when you want out of Parker it's either traffic down Lincoln or traffic on Arapahoe
