Convince me to move west.

Just messing with you!

There is a store in the Provo area. Super nice area, but they do get some snow. I don't think there is one in SoUtah, but there is more than one in the Vegas area IIRC. If you move to Cali you will have plenty of fixers around, if you move to Vegas there are some and I am 2 hours North. So either way you will have friends close by!

Haha very funny, never heard that one before.

We have about 1200+ stores nationwide. and we have been opening a lot of new stores every year. I already have all the lists of stores out west.

I have "in training" to be a district manager for a while and they have sent out to different stores out west to help train.

Tucson is much nicer than Phoenix!

Warning: once you move west, you'll never want to go back east except for short visits.
 
Re: Convince me to move west.

I have been to Tucson several times. It's on the list too. I had some family that lived there.

Is it a lot hotter there than phoenix?

Tucson runs 5 degrees cooler than Phoenix if not more. I liked Tucson much better. Phx from 72-80, Tucson 80-91. Liked Safford 91-08 even more but no store there for you. Real small town...
 
Yeah, but it's a "dry" heat. It'll take your breath away and feel like a blast furnace when the wind blows, but it's "dry" :part

We have good schools around here with small class sizes. You can also buy acreage all frick'n day long for <$2k/ac as long as you don't want neighbors!

Lot's of blowing snow and sub zero temps though.

I hear that the land of Dorothy and toto is also pretty tough on engines..... (and BTW, Jess said "LOT's" does not have an apostrophe)
 
Tucson is a great city, as is Phoenix. The AZ heat is easy to take compared with Dallas-Fort Worth. 110 in AZ is easier to take than 102 in D/FW. The humidity here is a killer. At least in the desert shade helps, here it's still humid. Don't let the no state income tax argument fool you. Texas still gets their money by charging fees for everything. Property taxes here on a 300K house will be more than AZ. I know, I've lived in both places. I'm in TX for the foreseeable future and am very happy living here, but will go back to AZ eventually. Best place weather wise I have ever lived is the SF peninsula. Would move back there in a heartbeat if it were offered. All of the North Texas fixers would welcome another local hooligan to hang with.
 
Texas has some nice areas.

In the long run I'd like to get out of Houston...too humid and it's murder on the sinus / allergies.

I personally find the Dallas area kind of flat and ugly but that's just my opinion.

San Antonio is nice but too many Mexicans for my taste.

If I could move anywhere I'd look near Austin or ideally pick a spot outside one of the small towns in central Texas.

Housing in Texas is pretty cheap and no state income tax is very nice.

Very hard on engines and yes, typo.
 
Re: Convince me to move west.

Having lived near Yuma AZ you could not pay me enough to live in AZ. I have been to Tucson a couple times in summer and Phoenix many times for days at a time. All I can say is you have never felt real heat until you've been there.

Oh, dry heat my butt. They get the monsoons in summer and with them is humidity.

NV isn't better. Heck we get the monsoons in Utah after CA NV and AZ.

Are you into self mutilation or something? Anything west of the Rockies is considered a foreign country.

Isn't that what they say about the south. I had to get a passport last time I went down there. :nut
 
Passports and ID are only needed if you're under 65. Over 65 it's P.A.R.T.Y. time!
