WHAT'S UP!!
This looks like a great place to hang out. I'm from Fresno,CA and love the square bodies. Here is a couple of pics of my blazers.

Welcome! I'm fairly new too...Sweet blazer, man! Square body blazers around me are usually pretty rusted out so it's nice to see a nice one every now and then! :)

Thanks Mr Clean. It's a 77 K5. I know Texas must have some good Mexican food. Do you have to go to south Texas to get good Mexican food?

Damn, nice K5!!! If Clean can be a Cali dude, then so can I. I was born and raised in the Downey/Norwalk area. A suburb just outside Los Angeles for those who don't know. Transplanted to OKC about 20 years ago, and I hope to be transplanting to AZ in the next 5 years or so and that will be a permanent plant there I hope. I love the dry heat, but not so sure I am ready for the Cali smog, crime, drugs, politics and high cost of living again. So I'll get as close as I can but have the living conditions I prefer. Welcome Fresno, I am also new here.

Thanks for the welcome and compliment Mr.GM! I hear what you're saying about California. We are planning to move once my wife finishes school and has had her job for a year so. We will be moving out of Cali in 3-5 years. We are currently interested in Nashville TN area.

They have TEX-MEX here, and it is nothing like the little hole in the wall Mexican food joints like in Cal. They don't have shredded beef, everything is hamburger and Carne asada is a dried up little steak thing, no rolled tacos any were, except at Wally World in the freezer section.:yucky: I have to go now I'm making my self hungry for something I'm not going to be able to get for a while.LOL

Do it. Just moved from Mission Viejo, CA (South OC) to Nashville area in Jan 2010. Love it here. Go to a gun shop, pick up an assualt rifie and then the year roiund firework stand to set off some of the good stuff. Nothing like living free. You don't realize what they took away until you see how good people with common sense live.

Yes, some of the thousands of reasons for me to get out. California is a socialist state and it's not for me. I may want to pick your brain about Nashville in the future if you don't mind.

Would be happy to do so anytime. Just let me know.

I knew Cali was no place I wanted to live but I didn't know it was THAT bad. Now I really know I don't wanna live there:)
