i'm thinking of moving there. what does it take to move there from the U.S.? do they have Chrysler dealerships there? do techs make good money? how would you rate it if you live there? just any info would be great.

Don't bother with ozzy and keep headin south till ya hit new zealand. Yes we have Chrysler dealerships and the pay aint bad. Don't know what would be involved to ship over here but we get all the JDM goodness cheap as chips and you'll probably find it easier gettin your current ride on the road here than in oz. plus if you really wana check ozzy out its only a 3hr plane trip away.

I was going to suggest New Zealand too. I've been there twice and would rather immigrate there and go back home to the UK. I like the attitude of Kiwis in general and they don't take shit and plus they're not a haven for illegal immigrants..............

The all blacks are a pretty good team as well...would be easy to jump ranks from the springboks to the all blacks.................lol.:TU:

Depends on where ya wana go, the far north of the north island is known as "winterless" as it is generally quite sunny. Auckland is crazy you can have all four seasons in about two hours some days, but when it's good its great and when its bad its shit. Basically the further south you go the colder it gets. Wellington can be really windy at times but as a general rule its pretty sweet.

yep, 7 of the worlds ten most deadly snakes/animals here. (can't remeber which)

I've got the best of both worlds, I'm a kiwi living in Oz

what are the chances of actually running into these animals?

BTW i'm really interested in what the gun laws are there.

Deadlier than a human being?

I dig New Zealand. Neat place. I'd like to visit one day.
