If I park a new $30,000 truck in my drive, and my sissy, metrosexual neighbors whine about it, they can kiss my big white butt.

Good! Disbanding the HOA is probably the best thing you can do for your neighborhood. In California we've heard nothing but horror stories over the past couple of years about these HOA's trying to steal people's homes over unpaid dues (the state supreme court ruled that unconstitutional), we've had people denied roof permits because the HOA wanted to extort an easement from them, people deined the right to have guests, people denied the right to fly a US flag in front of their house (a UN flag was okay), and etc.

There is just no way in hell I'd live in a neighborhood like that with some nebbish getting into my business.

Yah. Before I bought, besides looking at the rules I also stopped and asked a homeowner I found in his front yard about that very question and a few other things. He not only told me what I needed to know he pointed me to several people who did it regularly without problem.

But these days, there are very few neighborhoods that do not have H.O.A.s. I mean, I’m not spending $300,000.00 on a house just to have my rights stripped away. My grandfather did not fight The Nazis in W.W. II just to have homegrown nazis here telling you what you can do with your own property that YOU paid for. The H.O.A. is anti-American as you can get.
