Title: Roy, New Mexico on Mapquest
Post by: rbcp on January 25, 2012, 03:13:26 PM

I was surprised to find out that Google actually drove their crazy street view cars on every single street in Roy, New Mexico.  It looks about how I expected.  Here are some streetview shots.  They're all really boring, but HAHA ITS ROY!

I can't believe Google drove their Streetview cars through shitty little Deep Creek, Florida, yet they didn't do the neighborhood where I lived in elementary school.
