Just moved to Arvada Colorado from Los Angeles California with my girlfriend. All I can say is I love the state so far. If anyone sees a black GTO with Cali plates, give me a honk.
Welcome to most beautiful palce on earth, for a GTO to reside. The only bad part is the loss of power but I love ARvada and I'm sure you guys will the metro area as well. Welcome........
The loss in power is really not that bad. My car still feels real fast. It probably feels as fast as it did before the cam. It is all relative because everyone is slower. I love the fact that I can use the power more here than back home. Sitting in traffic everywhere ALL the time sucks.
Took the road through Boulder (great town too) into the Rockies. Then came down through Golden on the 6. What a beautiful drive. My car felt much slower at 10,000 feet, I'll tell you that! I have not seen snow in 5 years. And I have never seen changing of leaves. LA had two seasons, cool and hot. I do not miss the smog, rude people, traffic, espensive rent (try $1700 a month for a two bed apartment), sorry excuse for mountains, and I never cared for the ocean anyway.
I was an infant when my family lived in northern california, so I don't remember it. But I do remember living in New York, England, and Colorado. I can't imagine living anywhere but here.
Like everyone else has said, lived in multiple states and prefer Colorado. I was born and raised in New Mexico, but have lived in Oklahoma, Utah, and California and prefer Colorado.
Excuse the threadjack (Chuck started it), but should we get a thread going on the next event to poll interest. The 21st date is great for me and seeing that I am 12 year old in a 33 year old's body, D & B's sounds great.
