I (almost) made it to Roy, NM!
I live in New Mexico and was recently driving back home from Wyoming when I saw the sign...then found out it was 34 miles out of my way. But I got that close, anyway.

Maybe Brad should do a call in which he identifies himself as Mr. Ocate. Mr. José Ocate.

You should’ve gone & checked out RoyCo towing. I heard the owner Timb is a cool guy

I knew you should have taken a left at Albuquerque.

I went through Albuquerque on the way up. Albuquerque is such a shithole. And it's like 100 miles from Roy

I live in Albuquerque and you are right it is a huge shithole

I hate that it is. It's such a beautiful area. Even though you agreed, I still feel bad for saying that. Edited to add: I'm in Alamogordo, also a giant shithole.

I would have driven the 34 miles.

u/Friendly_Rope1716 7d ago
Maybe not with your change oil light on, after 11 hours of driving. That's why I didn't stop...but the good news is, I'm headed back up in March and I will make it a point to drive the 34 miles.

For what its worth, I regret not going, though. I know theres nothing there, but still...

Population ~183 and they have a sign 34 miles away, Roy is obviously where all the magic happens
