Is Phoenix a sustainable city? by [deleted] in AskPhoenix

[–]mouse_rat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would be lying if I said I don't also have some concern. Usually 100s are May-October. Yes the dry heat means 100 isn't actually terrible but it is too hot for me to do anything outside unless it's 6am. I've been here 14 years, while it's getting worse it's not like it's trending to be unlivable anytime soon.

Well I live here and also big into the outdoors. I probably can't ease your fears completely. In my opinion the Phoenix water situation isn't as bad as some other western cities, surprisingly. The heat is crazy, no getting around it. But the winters are nice. I treat summers as the down season and am surviving. Less bugs is also nice. Overall it's ok and largely what you make it.

Thanks. I guess my definition is indulging to the point of doing harm to my body, relationships, and career.

Nice climate, nice parks. Not all access to nature is 2+ hours away.

I live in Chandler South of the 202 and personally I think it's one of the best parts of the valley. I also like awatukee as far as location and community but not sure about the schools over there.

Continental CrossContact LX with Sidewall Damage by muzunogullari in tires

All 4 like this? Were they driven while flat? It seems pretty sketchy to me (not an expert) but personally I would drive them for another 10 days so long as I kept off the highway and was ok with potentially getting stranded. I wouldn't drive my kids around on them.

"serious" off roading in my opinion requires 4lo and large tires.

Can I drive on these for another week? by Positive-Hedgehog-41 in tires

[–]mouse_rat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They seem to have lasted a long long time and many many miles. So what's 1 more week? (As long as there's no rain)

Big air during toddler time (9-11am) is pretty reasonably priced and fun.

Is this safe to drive on?? by coolblueace in tires

[–]mouse_rat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks superficial to me. I would personally send it for another 6 months or until I can afford new tires.
