Phoenix meet anyone???
 

I got the chance to meet up with a member on here to help change my brakes. Had a good time, and I know there are a couple others in the area. How about we get a meet somewhere in Phoenix soon? I'm free on the weekends, and I'll be leaving Phoenix June 4th/5th to go back east.

I'm down. Papago Park would be cool to BBQ or something. Not much to do there, but there would be some great backgrounds for group photos.

If anybody remembers The Refreshments, that's where they filmed the video for Banditos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfZbFh7qlCQ

or South Mountain has some pretty cool views



not sure if we could get a shot of cars in front of that though, I don't know the parking lot layout off the top of my head

I'm game if the day is right. I have been working my ass off lately. I know for sure I have the 4th of April off but its also my birthday so I will probably do something with the family that day.

I was thinking sometime in May. Early May would be best for me. Maybe that first weekend, the 1st or the 2nd. Or we could do the next weekend the 8th or 9th. I'm down for either place. Haven't been to either. lol I don't get out much except to go to school. Although I did make it to Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon.

It would be sweet to have a caravan coming down 89A from Flag to Sedona, but that is too far. First weekend of May is cool, an early Cinco de Drinko .

I'm up for other suggestions too. The Pavillions has car shows every Saturday so that's an option.

What time does the car show start? We could meet up there, then head out somewhere for a bbq.

every Saturday at 4

I'm up for it. :)

anybody else...anyone....Bueller....anyone?

Sometime in may? i might be able to do that.

Early May before Cavy goes home...and before it gets too hot

The 1st-2nd, or the 8th-9th weekends would work best for me.

And I never get weekends off. If you guys set a date and I place I will get the day off. Chris knows how my schedule is though, how long did we put off doing your brakes, 3-4 weeks?

Chris pick what works for you and we'll make it happen

I say we go to South Mountain. Lots of nice views from up there.

has nothing to do with it being closer to you than the Pavillions does it? :lol:

I'm game for whatever.

Let's do the 1st. That would work best for me. South Mountain sounds good to. :) What time would we like to meet up? I'll have to make sure i wash the ho before I get there. :)

Later in the afternoon works better for me. The wife works Saturday mornings

Note*: just found out the baby needs tubes in her ears. She's going to the ENT today so they can check her out and schedule it, if it falls on/around that weekend I'm probably a no show, but I'm hoping we're a go for this.

Had that done when I was a baby. Hopefully it's before the meet, but if it is, we COULD do it the next weekend.

I should know today hopefully, the wife is taking the baby to the ENT probably right now

can't do the 1st, maybe the folowing weekend

Its about in the middle I think. I would think there would be less people too so maybe we could have a parking to are selfs if there is even parking up there. I'm good for whatever though.

I'm pretty sure there is. Just take Central south and keep going, it goes right into South Mountain Park. There are a couple of picnic areas up there, not sure how close you can get to the towers though

From what I saw on google maps you drive right by them if you take the road to the left, if you go right its a long road to a little parking area.

I have no idea where it is. :lol:

maybe I should do some recon this weekend

It's easy to get to Chris, just head towards, LA from where you are, get off on 7th (either one will work, haha) go south to Baseline, the go to Central (right from 7th Street, left from 7th Avenue and actually you can go further down to Dobbins from 7th St) then when you get to Central just keep going south

Ok so kinda new here.... how do you get up to south mountian?

Depending where you live take I 10 to 7th ave or 7th st, go south, you can do the samething from I 17( I 10 truck route). From 7th st/ave doing south go to Baseline. If your on 7th ave turn left on Baseline and go to Central Ave, turn right and stay on Central. If your on 7th St go to Baseline and turn right, go to Central and turn left. Central is the only road that goes up South Mountain.

ok got it... thanks!!!! I'm down whenever just let me know!!! (might have my daughter with me though).... Hey not to get off the subject but anyone know a good place to get a windshield replaced down here?

I don't live in Phoenix, but Safelite Autoglass is a nationwide autoglass replacement company. They replaced mine back in January and I got a lifetime warranty with it. It covers the windshield for as long as I own the car. They also accept insurance.

If you go to enough gas station/car washes they have those people walking around checking out windshields and they will generally just bill your insurance.

I got mine replace through Omega. Like Haz said they have glass people at every car wash in town.

We gonna pick a date your sit around with our thumbs up our butts? I say the 8th or 9th so broken one car go too. South Mountain.

Works for me and I'll have the DVD player in by then (actually tomorrow)

I'd say the 8th, South Mountain.

The 8th it is. any ideas about the time?

Whatever time works best for you guys. I'm just gonna take the day off so anytime is fine with me.

anytime is fine with me. I guess we could meet around noon or so, then head to that car show around 4

around noon on the 8th. Works for me.

ok, here's my itinerary for that day:

wife works until 2:30 so she should be home around 3:00. I told my nephew I'd take him to the Pavillions so I'll have to run out to the West side and pick him up. Coming back, I can swing by the mountain if you guys are still there and we can all head out to the Pavillions then, or I can just meet you over there. Damn wife has me on MST even when I'm doing white people things.


Chris, I still have your # so I will text you when I'm leaving my sister's house and find out what you guys are up to so I know where to go.

So let's do a roll call then, here's what I got

HazMatt - going but late

nicealero - ?

Ok the 8th at noon... I'm there!!!
