I live just north of Los Angeles, so a jaunt down to SD isn't too hard. It appears this is a good time, and would be nice to connect in person.

We have an official NorCal/LA/OC Caravan that leaves LA around noon on that Friday. The NorCal crew (if there any this year although elguappo and Yar promised to come this year) leaves the Bay Area at O'Dark Thirty that morning and typically make it here to the LA area around 11-11:30am. I meet them and host a quick lunch at the hangar (in Pacoima just down the road from you) then we all head southeast on the 210 to make the Inland track to San Diego. We sometimes pick up folks along the way. I'll make an official thread for it again sometime in the next month or two.
Drop me a PM with you contact info and I'll stay in touch.

Does anyone drive down from further north? Seattle or Portland? It would be more fun to meet up than driving solo for three days.

i haven't decided if i'll attend, but if i do, i'd be happy to meet up beforehand and drive down from Portland. not sure if cek is driving down from Seattle...?

Thanks, I'll keep an eye on this space.

was'suuuuup!

I haven't done anything this crazy since I drove back from colorado. Can't commit, but i should come down. I'm becoming more and more sedate as these years fly by.

I am planning on making this my first e28 related meet. In fact, this will be my first auto related meet, period. I only know one person in this crowd (Chris K) so I am a bit leery.

My question: I asked my wife, Bobbie, if she wanted to come (after all, we live in Tucson, so any chance to go to SD is more that welcome).

She replied: "Why would I want to hang out with you geeks for two days".

We're talking San Diego here. Sandyeggo may be the world's best place to visit. But, still, a very fair question.

So, Do you guys bring your wives? Is there something going on for non e28buttheads? Will there be other ladies there that will go shopping/sightseeing and thus happily discuss what dickheads I/we/us really are?

I'm going regardless. Whether I share a room with my wife at the 4 Points San Diego or with a e28butthead friend will probably be determined by the end of this thread.

My wife came with me last year and will this year, but there are very few, maybe 3-5? Maybe a couple more, but not many. And she pretty much just hung out in the hotel room or the car. The fairer sex population might have peaked at the Mission Bay parking lot.

If she's a delicate flower that doesnt like a bunch of dudes drinking, kicking tires and talking shit to each other, then leave her.
If she can hang out and dish it out, then by all means bring her.
We always like the 'cool chicks' who can hang and not be offended.

I imagine she could find plenty to do in San Diego. Easy for me to say though. Every time I go to San Diego, I just end up at Darin's.

My wife came in 2015. She enjoyed meeting everyone and enjoyed the actual "car show" on Saturday (ha!), but very quickly grew tired of the sausage-and-gearhead-fest. She choose not to go last year. I suspect she will come again this year, but will only make a brief appearance to the rest of you all.

There's a reason one of the wives who showed up last year calls this "Sausagefest"...

There was one year a few wives and female friends showed up and I engaged them in a spirited discussion of the healthcare delivery system...

I still haven't figured that out.

I remember that!! She still thinks you are the tits!

I dubbed that "The Tailpipe" when I made the follow up post. Haha.

Greetings all,

T-shirt thing in the works again this year?

Pablo. (cause I am so cool driving around in my oil burner sporting an e28 shirt)

There is something cooking....hold on tight!

Will try to be there as well, need to meet the e28 crowd!

Just a little over a month away and the forecast is, no dams expected to fail.

How is prep coming for everyone?
We are a month away and I am woefully behind...

Well, I'm holding off on the 12 pack of Pabst because I want it to be fresh.

I'm following up on the wife/significant other count...Pam mentioned to me the other day she may consider coming to SD for a day if there are some others who may want to go for a spa session and perhaps other sightseeing. But...she is NOT a shopper

Catherine wants to come down (so we'll be coming in the touring). We've decided to wander down 110 from Reedsport and check out the Oregon coast and redwoods. We'll arrive in SD on Thursday and head back on I5 starting Sunday morning. Catherine is not a shopper either.

For you guys bringing S/Os, the NY Times had an article today that has some San Diego fun "to do" stuff that I agree with.
