    The only thing that I would NOT want to happen is, having real estate tank….because my daughter just paid almost a half million for a house that was $115k new 25 years ago. Adjusted for inflation, it should only cost half what she paid for it and I don’t want to see her and her husband paying for a dead horse.

    I’ve lived here my whole life.

    Those good days as an OO were great. The bad days were hell.

    my daughter and SIL just did the same in Goodyear, AZ.

    460,000 for a house that woulda sold for 175k just 10yrs ago.

    I was sick when I found out the price of that house.

    wife and I paid 145k for ours and it is comparable to hers, but ours is about 500sq ft larger, bigger lot and a pool.

    comparing apples to oranges I know, but still is just unreal what a few yrs can do to real estate prices

    I used to haul those exact rocks to Big Sky. I preferred the quarry in Plains.

    Lol :D:D yeah trucking has pretty much sucked since that wreck... feels like it happened yesterday still
    some guy ran a stop sign and hit me in August last year.. I'm a bit sketched out at highway intersections now. Just like roads with small lanes and no shoulders with a drop off. Easy to rollover... don't have as much fun out here as i used to but it's still better than working a cash register or trash collecting
