yeah ive been to houston, it was the end of april and i left my motel room, walked like 3 rooms down and was drenched in sweat! it was nasty. dfw was not like that when i was there, i asked around, people said it gets alittle more humid than it was but not much.

You should look into the Lubbock area, the weather is nicer and the traffic is way better.

Sorry for late reply, been having page issues

Haha, well thanks! :)
Sweden has had a pretty good economy for a long time, before our last election we had an amazing financial minister. In the huge financial crisis that hit the EU a few years back Sweden was one of few that didn't get effected by it very much and that was in a huge way thanks to him. We like it that way, we don't want to be like the rest of the EU with insane unemployment numbers and homeless people. A few years back most of the homeless people here were junkies and people with mental health issues, today the majority is regular people like you and me but they were unfurtunate and lost their jobs and it's only getting worse since the only thing the ****** assholes are thinking about is the refugees, not our own people.

Yeah, that's ****** up! I think is really weird, if I wanna go to the US I have to get a visa and they do a backgrund check and I have a Swedish passport, thoes are highly regarded all over the world, but random people from a country known to hate on the US they can just cry refugee and they're welcomed with open arms.
I heard of a guy that did something stupid when he was about 18 (he stole a barchair) and 15 years later when he was going to the US he was denied a visa and was not let in because of it.

It was really fun, I would definitly do it again. But I don't have a need to have guns at home, it's also illigal to carry here unless you have a hunting license, but then you can only carry when you go hunting or to the range. To get a licens for a AR-15 here is VERY difficult, I know there was someone that wanted a licens for it to use in dynamic shooting competitons but was denied it by the police. After alot of back and forth with they were overturned and he got his licens. The police do not like competitive shooting.
We can't even legaly use guns for selfdefence, that will land you in jail for a long time. We have the stupidest laws about selfdefence, for example if I get attacked by someone twice my size and I still managed to beat the **** out of him, I will most likely be the one that goes to jail for assult...

I think is too late for US to start with gun control now, for us that has never had it the way you do it works perfectly fine. Shootings are very rare here so the rest of us don't need guns. But in the US there are already so many guns and unless everyone (both good and bad people) get rid of them it will never work and with your 2nd amendment that will never happend, you Americans love your guns. Sweden would probably be exactly the same if we had the 2nd amendment and so would any other country.
Mexico is so corrupt, I don't think there is anything anyone can do to fix Mexico.

Wow that sounds awesome! I haven't even driven around much here in Sweden and it only takes about 4 hours to drive across the widest part and from the most northen city to the most southern city a little under 21 hours.

Haha thats weird! It doesn't sound very tasty... pretty much the only things I like fried is chicken and french fries! I'm not big on fat n greasy food.
yeah the world is going nuts! hahaha. crazy ass laws, cant even protect yourself. thats messed up.
what do you do if you dont drive around your country? stay in town 24/7? i pictured it all snow and mountains with blue eyed girls with braided blonde hair skiing everywhere. hahaha. that was until i saw your hand full of truck pics, looks just like around here.
its pretty cool getting a prospective from someone halfway around the world.we seem to be alot alike...small world i guess.
i thought you guys had another language? and is it just one country and thats it, or do you have states? its strange to think of a country without states being an american....you dont like the laws, or how things are run here you can just move next door and be in the same country with different laws. some states ban guns, there are towns that ban alcohol, some you can drink and drive, some you cant use phone when driving... wanna live a hundred miles from another person you can, or move to a city where you cant walk down the road their are so many people.

yeah, most of the fried fair food is nasty. we do have awesome fried chicken! im not big on cooking and here the fat and greasy food its super cheap and found on every corner. healthy food cost like 2x-3x more than the processed crap here. i went on a diet and it was so expensive. and you can taste the difference in the veggies from the big producers and the locally grown stuff, way better home grown. lot of people around me have gardens, i had one for a few years, taste way better eating a salad from your back yard. store stuff is bland, no taste.

I would hate to leave that nice car behind
i dont want to leave it a day.....its a factory a/c car and i got it working great, ice cold. its perfect for down there. and factory power windows so i can drop all 4 windows and cruse, its a hardtop so no b-pillar so looks extra sexy with all the windows down.
need to find somewhere i can keep more than one car when im there.

im kinda just going to wing it, not making plans. just dumping my house, job and pretty much everything here, putting tools and few things in truck and heading south, try to start a new life in a free state, maybe even meet a wife if all goes well. hahaha god knows ill never find one around here. looked for jobs, seem to be enough that i should be able to atleast find one to pay the bills pretty quick. im a ase master certified diesel mechanic with 15 years experience so hopefully i can find something right away.

As bad as you say CT is; I wouldn't want to go back for a visit, I say just make one trip.
Buy a trailer, load the car on it, load up the truck, and get the hell outta there.
