    Yeah for some reason they never have seemed to catch on out here. The guy with the junk yard told me as soon as he saw my truck .."Toyotas make lousy lowriders " ....He said all the trucks he built were Mazdas and Mitsu's. I thought that was wierd. :ROFL: Out here 4x4's have everyones love....

    Yeah, my wife is from Kent, WA. She loves it up there. She wants to move back up there when she graduates.

    Sure is awesome seeing that gorgeous gray skyline while doing 16 mph down the freeway between the hours of 3pm and 7pm. In any direction, anywhere you go.

    There was a time back in the 90's when Griffey and Shawn Kemp were a couple of my favorites, and I seriously wanted to move out there. Closest I ever got though was watching Frazer. :D

    From what I've seen and heard from Bay Area friends who originated from the Seattle area it's absolutely beautiful...

    St louis born and bred.... don't like something like the weather ... give it 30 mins it will change.
    radio stations are falling apart some because of corporate nonsence.
    Otherwise figure out more than one route to anywhere you go cause they like thier road construction.
    Weather wise its been more and more mild over the years.

    I have lived in a lot of places (ND, IA, PA, FL, MI, GA, & SC). I think Seattle is one of the better places I have lived.

    Though, when I was visitting family out in North Dakota a couple summers ago, my wife fell in love with the place, and she has been trying to convince me to move out there ever since.

    NC sucks for me. Its hot as hell....got too many flying and crawling things that bite...and the car scene here centers on nascar and rocket hondas...both of which are played out. I miss the cooler temps...the friendly people...the snow capped mountians and the emerald green of the forests.....If my company had a office or a store there I'd move back in a heart beat !!
