    Moving!!!

    So I'm moving to Pensacola, FL during the beginning of June, then I find out if I move outside Pensacola or move to Corpus Christie, TX at the end of July(ish). I'm trying to go to Corpus Christie if I have a choice.

    I have an '88 vert up here that I'm tired of dealing with,and want to get rid of to buy a small reliable pickup. I also own a really nice 89 M3 in Arizona with 98k miles on it. Soo... do I bring the M3 to Florida? Buy a pickup in AZ (no rust issues) to help me move my shit? Also, if you have any advice on moving to Pcola or Corpus let me know, I'd need to be close to the Naval Air Stations in both places.

    Last question-
    7 weeks ago I popped a coolant hose on the 'vert. Took me a while to get it fixed, and in that time (about a month) the battery died. Brand new battery. I tried to push-start it, no luck. The car sat for a while longer, and when I tried to jump it again I got the car connected, tried to turn the key, and nothing. No lights, door alarm, nothing. Any thoughts?

      welcome to texas if u decide to move here, its a nice place. my guess on the very would maybe be the alarm, there has been cases where the alarm just pretty much makes everything not work, but dont hold me to it. check connections to battery, and also check the battery voltage.

          get the battery checked by advance/auto/zone for free and get it fully charged. And take a look at your main relay too.

              So where are you currently located? Arizona? I might know some people looking to buy your e30 m3 if you plan to sell it, if your in Arizona.

                  no, I'm currently located in Annapolis, MD. I'm originally from AZ, so the M3's chilling at home until I'm in a place where I can devote the time/effort/money to take care of it.

                  But, no, it's not for sale... :-)

                              Yea. When I lived in Corpus back in '05, it wasn't that great. I would highly recommend Pensacola over CC.
