Ok, I'm torn between here and there ( ohio vs az ) so I hear alot of folks complain about az, so what are your likes and dislikes about az, so I can compare, Cuz, like I said I hear alot about how az is a shithole, and this place sucks, so if it sucks so bad, then why not leave, and if you could where would you go, OHIO LOL, this is not a bad place, I love it here, But Our summers are just to short, and winter is just down right cold, unless you like -20* temp. Give me your .02 cents. I can take it.

News flash... no place is perfect... except Costa Rica I hear... 
AZ does some stuff that makes you scratch your head and go "WTF" Â Â sometimes, but by and large it isn't that bad of a place to live. Â I think sometimes AZ tries to hard to CA.
My heart belongs to Colorado, but I got tired of 9 months of winter and 3 months of bad skiing. Â I think I had to scrape a thin film of frost off my windshield once last year. Â I now own two sweaters (for those quick trips to the cold climates in the winter) . Â "Cold" is anything below 60*...
The biggest jaw dropper for people comming from the midwest is the cost of living it seems. Â Though for a western state AZ isn't all that bad, less than California and about on par with the rural areas of Colorado, maybe Nevada.

Well I do like it here, and like you said no matter where you live there will be drawbacks, BUT, I'm just sick of the cold and and short summers, I don't mind the snow, if the temp stays at about 30* and no lower, but we get that wind and arttic air from up north, and that just put a haten on you, I like the great outdoors, and driving my cars, but They only see a few months out of the year, same with the bike I sold. and No burger joints out here, we have BK and Mcdonalds, that sucks big time, the Islands are fun and so is ceder point, but again, a few month out of the year. Sorry for bugg'n you, but, I keep think about this staying here crap, WHY, Both places are great. And I know I can always come back.

Moving to AZ your cars won't rust off the frame. you won't have to dig then out in the winter to drive. That broom and shovel your selling, Will be a thing of the past. If you get the inkling to freez your butt off you just have to drive north 2 hours to remind yoursef why you sold that shuvel and broom.

Hey guy's, my day went from bad to worst, the guy that bought my car is in Nebraska, and was flooded out, from all the rain, now he is re-thinking this thing, I thing he is going to back out on me. This has been one very bad day for me, every time my phone rang it was more bad news, He had called and I did not pick up the last time, I get it tomorrow, maybe it will be good news, He also said he could not find a shipper that was cheap. I mean you spend how much on a this car, what a cheap $^%%^
