Default Moving out to Cali from TX

Whats going on boys and girls
I'm about to make the move out to California at the end of this month. Hopefully there is a friendly car community in the area in which I'll be.
If there are any weekly meets itd be nice to get out and meet some people.

Here is a little info on me and pics of the Z

California people suck. All they do is go on forums, talk about their stupid Z's and sell dope *** parts for hella cheap. You're going to hate it here.

And not to mention all these girls with nice racks and big'ol junks. Eww. Cali blows.

I'll be living off of Whitley Avenue in Los Angeles the 90028 I believe.
Got some offers so, making the move to see what comes of it.

I've got GPS, which thank goodness cause other wise I'd be lost.

Are there any tips, suggestions, heads up, etc?

LMAO most CA drivers just don't give a $*!$& about the fast and slow lane. They drive in whichever lane they like at the speed they want to.


BTW op, cool blog!

Well from what I've been told L.A. traffic, relates to Dallas tollway traffic as far as speed goes. I've heard from everyone to stay off the "105"? I think I've got that right.

Yeah I'm looking forward to the weather. Right now its 101 high and 78 lows

everyone drives 75+ mph there. be prepared.

traffic is lovely during rush hour regardless of where you are.

ugly cars everywhere.

pollution is very distinctive and beautiful.

food there sucks.

girls there suck.

nothing to do there.

all in all, everything i said was a lie minus the first part.

ENJOY!

i miss living in socal

Well, lol, I guess I'll have to get my feet wet and experience it all.

Looking forward to meeting you guys once I'm out there. Always here about SoCal and California in Texas, so hoping to make a good experience out of it.

yeah, the 105 is either really bad or empty. Late at night you can really get up to speed , I especially love the interchange from the 105 west to 405 south, it's a long, tunnel that sweeps left and so much fun to go through.

Oh...and when you get to socal, you should get introduced to California Burritos. I'm biased though, I think San Diego has the best mexican food. You order a carne asada burrito and you get:
Tortilla
Carne Asada
Guac or Sour Cream

That's it. For some reason, most places in OC and LA will add rice, beans, pico de gallo and all this other stuff.
