This is the automobile center of the USA.

I have connections to all levels of the industry.

The difficult can usually be done in a working day, the impossible may take a week.

Etc,etc...

I am stubborn, and refuse to walk away from my home - family.

“The true New Yorker secretly believes that people living anywhere else have to be, in some sense, kidding.” ― John Updike

I think this might apply to Detroiters and Angelenos as well...

heres some good news, while you are underwater, being eaten by rats, and waiting 2 days for an ambulance full of gang bangers that will shoot you dead, you can enjoy some quality beer.

Something good is brewing in down-on-its-luck Detroit. - chicagotribune.com

There is no law against Detroiters having pets. A major and growing rat infestation may be hard to deal with though.

We dealt with them when the farm next door changed their operations in some ways a few years back. The older homes in Detroit wiring insulation is a consumable for them. So they represent a safety hazard in many ways as well.
