Making the moderators cyber-sit me is probably a good way of getting my account locked for a while. I know they're busy folks volunteering their time to help others out.It's selfish of me and others who make their task more time consuming and difficult than it already is. In fact I should either chip in and help out or not participate at all. I'm going to do my best to be part of the solution and not the problem from now on.

I'm curious as to what kind of wheel security these people have . . . do they have wheels locks? I have 16 wheels locks and 4 of another to protect my HREs. If mother fuckers want my wheels they gotta destroy them to get them off . . . fucking low lifes.

Ya wheel locks do deter thieves but they can certainly be removed without too much effort.

The more wheels locks that are used the harder you make it for them.

+1...

Sounds like my neighborhood. Chavez, I live right around the corner from you. I'm on the East side of Elk Grove Florin, off Vintage, & my street is nice, quiet, all the neighbors are cool, & look out for each other. But if you go west on Vintage, & cross over Elk Grove Florin, that side is hella ghetto nowadays.

I remember when Elk Grove was nice, but as it grew closer to South Sac, it went down hill. I grew up in South Sac off Mack Rd, & man that area is F'd up now...

It don't matter what the houses look like N8, its about the people who dwell within & around them. Elk Grove & South sac may look decent, but trust me, there are some parts that aren't that nice...

Sacramento ghetto's look much different than East Oakland, or other inner city ghetto's, but it doesn't matter how it looks on the outside, the ghetto people are the same.

Have you ever been to Del Paso Heights? That is a pretty rough area IMO, but I work over there all the time, inspecting the fire extinguishers in some of the most ran down apartment complexes in town, so it really doesn't bother me much...


Now the neighborhood that Chavez took a pic of the Acura in, thats not ghetto, but like someone said before, its close to South Sac & Florin Rd, so the thieves come out here to look for gold LOL..

when was elk grove even all that nice? like 10-15 years ago maybe. now, it's old and with the economy the way it is the ghetto can afford to rent there. shit happens. if you can keep your cars inside or put a decent alarm in them. if a criminal wants it bad enough, they will take it..

it's like oak park. back in the day it was super nice. and today? well, not a good neighborhood...
