    there was a guy on evom.net from the chicago area who got his car jacked. i wouldn't say it's impossible, but take cautions. get an alarm. i have that on my car and it gives me a piece of mind.

    I live 30 minutes west of DT Milwaukee and never have any issues.

    But, if you're in the East Side of Milwaukee (by UWM) I'd be careful. Best bet is an alarm. I know a couple of guys who went the extra mile with proximity alerts and two-way remotes.

    Ive been too UWM a couple times with my car... dont really recomend bringing the EVO there. I never had a problem with break ins or anything but have seen alot of people just disrespecting cars like kicking them or will back into them while trying to leave a parrell spot and just leave.

    I make my gf drive if we go there now!

    4-8 inches of snow is expected to hit throughout tomorrow and into Saturday.

    This won't help our pot hole situation, so watch those holes... it's pretty rough up here.

    i was gone all last week and had gone down to florida for springbreak. man was it lovely down there. the roads were smooth as hell and the weather was beautiful. i wish i had driven my car down there to experience the florida roads and weather and the road trip down there. looks like the weather is getting better here. we left thursday night a 6, and i guess it started snowing at midnight and all day friday. glad i missed that beating.

    Hope for another 12" and most of the potholes will be filled in.

    The roads up here in Appleton aren't much better. I definitely agree if you're going to put on coilovers/slam the car down at all that this isn't the best state to do it in.

    I'm usually down in Milwaukee at least once a month visiting friends, etc. I went to the Safehouse for the first time last month...what a sweet place.

    I dont know, I think the roads in Appleton are pretty descent, just dont go down any side streets or out in the coutry. A road to watch out for is Calumet/KK heading from Darboy to Kaukauna, one of the worst roads in the Fox Valley area.

    I guess it's all relative. The roads back home in NY are much better than they are out here. Also, the section of College Avenue between Kensington and John St. is horrible. Especially with the Evo's suspension, I feel like I need a chiropractor after I drive that way.
