    If you could live anywhere in Socal?

    *** Official Backpacking Thread ***

We start training with the local San Diego hikes (Woodson/Cajon), then move on to Saddleback (great hike), then Baldy, San Jacinto, San Bernadino, San Gorgonio, and some others mixed in. White mountain is a slog and always cold, but I...

    Del Mar Zone Reccos

    Though classic places, the Roberto's are average at best these days, but may be worth it for the nostalgia...I like Belchfire's recommendations of Solana Beach...they could also hit the Brig with a view of the track for fish tacos then head up the coast...And, we are currently full of...

    ***Official Car Talk Thread***

    Oh man! Forgot about the Volkswagon manual! Had a dirty, greasy copy for years...1970/1971 Westfalia's, 1973? Squareback which I blew up on the 101 in Shell Beach...left it on the side of the road, ran to work at a construction project, and never saw it again!

    ford trucks still the best like a rock!

    I have a Subaru Outback and there is no way it can go off road like a Tacoma...that said, for most it does just fine. We just took my Outback to Idaho/Wyoming this winter and I can't say enough good things about how it drives.
