Hey Clint, yeah, i'm checking on a possible job in Colorado Springs.
Just so I'm clear, does Co. Springs currently have emission testing or not? And would I start getting rusty undercarriage suspension hardware even if i only drive when it's dry out? And is it true some cities set up roadside emission testing units? If so, do they issue tickets? That would suck big time.
Semirural is what I have in mind. Somebody mentioned Peyton. What's the area like? What about the Black Forest? How is the traffic from there to Co. Springs?
Thank you all again.
Well, I just got new tags for my truck, and they didn't ask me to get an emissions test, but then again I've only had it a little over a year, so yeah....
Doubtful that you would get any rust on the underside if you only drove it when it was dry out, since its very desert-like out here as of late. Seriously, the rain goes around the city, lol.
Denver does have a few roadside emissions testing units (last I checked, at least), but I have never seen one in Colorado Springs, nor have I ever heard of anyone getting a ticket for emissions in the State of Colorado.... But you may wanna look into that a bit further.
Peyton is a few miles east of Colorado Springs, and, well, its very "rural," we'll say, lol. Traffic to get to/from there is rarely ever bad. As far as Black Forest goes, the houses are a bit more expensive out there, but its pretty nice. Probably a 5-10 minute drive north of town. Traffic is a little bit worse at key points in the day (7-9 am, 4-6 pm), but even then isn't that much worse unless theres an accident.
This brings me to the drivers here..... Not the best, I'm not gonna lie. I generally almost get creamed at least twice a week, although I do drive alot.... 75% of the people here DO NOT know how to use a round-a-bout or a merge lane. Often times they stop, and thats bad, lol.:3d_frown: I could rant for hours on this, but I won't bore you with that.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
