Not a big deal I can strap them to the Gobi rack on my H2 or H3, just need to know.

The tire limit is for the state permit which is a bunch of crap. I went to get a permit and they told me the tire size limit is 33's so i told the guy that my truck comes with bigger tires from the factory. He said well then we can make an exception if you go home and put the oem tires on we can fill out some paper work and get you a permit. As I was standing there talking with the guy 3 jacked up toyotas with at least 37" tall tires came pulling up and went in to get permits he didnt say crap to them. the county permit is much easier to get and they dont require you to have fishing poles unless your night fishing but then you have to be actively fishing with permits and poles. only requirement during the day is recovery equipment jack board, tow strap etc.

fourfourto: lol, i was the same way...until i was lucky enough to be able to live off the island for a while.

Once i left I realised how much you give up on long island, you really cant see it unless you live somewhere else for a while.

You can compare to anywhere, but for me its Colorado:

Long Island Colarado
---------------------------------------------
Traffic TONS Little to none.
Off Roading Beaches THOUSANDS of miles.
City Nearby NYC Denver
Taxes (similar House) $8,000/yr $951/yr
Sunny Days A few A LOT
Mountains None Tons
Cost of living: HIGH Low
Health Insurance: $400/mo $65/mo

For single men, i cant see how they can deal with the attitude of most women on Long Island. Attitude even though most all of them are overweight?! Average size in LI seems to be 6-8 for women. Average size in CO is 0-2 for women (including those that have had kids!). For me (And my friends that have visited from CO) this alone makes LI gross. They couldnt beleave 170+ pound girls getting hit on at the bars by multiple guys?! Crazy! Not trying to be mean, but its the truth.

In the defense of Long Island, it was virtually unaffected by the economy compared to most other places. The average income on LI is awesome. Where else does a cop make over $100,000 starting salery?!

I rest my case.
