  • I wanted to leave NYC to go live in Elkhart, what was I thinking ?

  • I've been to Elkhart once and it was a dump.....

  • I hate living in Elkhart! I go to school in Goshen. Elkhart is full of dumbasses.

  • Two words ... "gas prices". That was the trigger that started this down turn. The RV industry is so dependent on gas prices staying low. This happened in this area back in the late 70's as well. Carter was the reason for all the shortages in that crisis.

  • I Live In elkhart To LOl

  • Federal Reserve Created this CRASH ....

  • haha i live in elkhart. YAAAAAAA go elkhart

  • How's that Hope and Change going?

  • 19%, damn. When I left Oregon, that place was about 13% (note that in the map they show, Oregon has a lot of dark blue).

    I live in Albuquerque now, which hasn't been hurt as bad as the rest of the country but that's only because there wasn't much here to lose to begin with.

  • i live there and yes it sucks
