[Dustin Chromers]

Thank God there's not a chromer toll or I'd be broke.

No shit, or a Chromer cap and quota.

I'll trade you 4 Filson flannels for a quarter of your chromer quota.

So basically something worthless for something priceless. No thanks

Speaking of toll roads, I've heard that Michigan and Detroit are discussing bringing in tolls to cover road repairs. Conditions of the roads now are so bad that you need to be careful of throwing out your alignment or blowing out a tire. No word on what rates they're planning to introduce. I like the idea of specific toll lanes while having to option to use free lanes along side them..

You don't have to go to Michigan to blow out a tire or lose alignment. Take any side street in tacoma.

I just do what everyone else does in Tacoma. Drive fast enough to float over the potholes and you won’t have issues!

Here in the city we had a sinkhole in a surface street that swallowed half a suv. How many potholes can say that?

No pothole in America holds a candle to Japan... Tokyo has lizards thar swallow whole commuter trains and trample skyscrapers . Half an SUV? That's nothing.
