So I'm current driving across the county...Made it to SoCal!

[JinormusJ]

Glad you finally made it in one piece

Sit back, enjoy the smog, hit the beach, and relax. No other place like Cali

great thread...I did this back in 2008 when I moved from Boston to Vegas...what a trip. I did it again in my brothers VW when he moved out to huntington beach....this makes me want to make that drive all over again

Sell the E34, its a pain to have multiple cars out here.

I do not eat meat....so I've had Kroger...well Smith's sushi for the past two days. Haha

for future reference, you can order a grilled cheese at In N Out

Looks like an awesome trip man, wish I could do something similar.

Welcome to Southern California Nick!

And I like what's on top ... ;)

[jaywood]

Where in Socal are you?

[MF DOOM]

Indiana is hands down the worst state in the country to drive through. Garbage roads, constant construction, terrible drivers.

LOL I just had a run up to cambridge, oh (driving truck for the summer) and holy shit is this an understatement.

Thanks man! Love my CAAD9.

Where in Socal are you?

Long Beach with a friend. Likely staying in the area. I really like it.

Seriously, it's terrible. People give Ohio a lot of shit for bad drivers and obviously LA is real bad.... but Indiana is just awful.

Nebraska was the worst for me followed closely by New Mexico...Literally nothing to see...Nebraska is all flat and smells like shit (there is a weird bridge thingy that goes over the highway tho) and NM is up and down ad nauseum

Update:

Job is going great so far. The commute sucks and is usually around 45min in the morning, hour 10-15 in the evening. I don't really care, I know I'm sitting in traffic so it gives me some time to think.

Signed the lease for a place in Long Beach last night. No garage but has a massive fenced in, shared back yard, driveway patio. The landlord said he'd prefer if people not park there but it's a dialed spot to wash my car and maybe do some lite work. Pretty stoked. Some of my stuff shows up tomorrow so I'll hopefully be living there by the end of the weekend. Shit's moving quick. I fly back at the end of august to get my girlfriend, E34 and the rest of mine and her stuff.

So, when do you change the location on your profile?

Glad to hear you are liking it. Just for the record, a 45 min commute is a great, lite commute, sometimes I spent double or more than that driving from the outskirts into the heart of the metropolitan area to get to work.
