Anyone buy from copart? Did you use a broker? I am unable to bid directly for vehicles in San Diego

With all the SDAR and Dualsport people here in San Diego it seems that I cannot go anywhere without spotting someone on a DS bike or with an SDAR sticker on their truck. How about a thread for sightings? I will start. Tuesday Morning on the I-15 North toward Escondido around 9am -- Spotted a Light colored Toyota 4x4 Pickup with a San Diego Adventure Riders Sticker on the Drivers side of the rear window <img src='http://dualsport-sd.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rtfm:' />

I think EDF renewable energy has operator positions open. One or two former co-workers from San Onofre went there. I think they monitor electrical production from windmills there using computer based SCADA systems. I good fit for a computer LAN guy. The only problem is the 24/7 rotating shift coverage which can be a blessing or a benefit - more days off in a row. Anyway they are in Rancho Bernardo. Good luck.. I know what it is like to be out of work after the same person that keeps shutting down desert access helped to shut-down the nuclear power plant. Thanks BB!

I think the 1997 and newer TJ Jeep Wrangler with the Six cylinder is a good way to go. Back in the day I had an 98 Sahara that I towed behind a 1989 class c and it was a nice set up. I have a wrecked 04 Rubicon buried in the garage (bought that way) that I need to build. If possible the jeep you get should have a select trac trans - (the one that is not full-time 4wd) and if possible the Dana 44 rear-end. I am not up on the newer stuff as I am a big fan of the old inline 6. As far as the motorhome goes that is tough. I do like the 06 and newer ford V-10 with the 5-speed auto. Class Cs are ok for smaller rigs (under 29') - your carrying capacity is limited by the chassis and tires. Class A's are good for storage and more expensive tires that can carry more load. I run an old 79 440 Vogue 33' class a. I do work on it frequently and it gets 6.7 MPG. But the other day when I hooked a tree with the rear bumper and bent it at a 45 I did not care. I broke out the torch, heated it up and bent it back. If you find a nice used jeep you probably won't loose much money on it if you decide to sell it. It is easy to loose money on Motorhomes. Good luck

White Dodge Dakota with an Arizona plated bike in the back - probably a KTM - south on the 15 near Hwy 76 around 7pm.

what is illegal about the "typical washing machine tub" I took an old truck tool side box and cut it down welded it up and cut a few holes in it for air. As long as it is 18" above the pavement it is legal at silver strand state park where I use it.

KLRs are special and unique bikes - full of strengths and fraught with a few weaknesses that have been Identified. With an inexpensive KLR and a couple tech days you will have a very reliable and capable machine. It may not be as nimble and sexy as many, however few are as faithful and dependable! Glad to see Left Coast KLRs and the tech days are still going strong.

Because Dirt Hurts! As their old DVD promo says

I did some trail damage on Ranger once - I damaged an LC4 engine. Should have used the kick-stand for a quick turn around!

As far as a commuter goes the tractor-like KLR is very heavy and solid on the street and still good for dirt.

If you get a DR200 look in the free stuff section - I put a jet kit in there

I had a street get off where I was dazed and doing illogical things afterwards - like trying to kick start my VFR. Sent the X-11 to Shoei for a free inspection and got a form letter back with the helmet saying it was trashed. I would like to x-ray it or something since it only has a small scrape on it.

Seen it happen b4

Thanks for offering bro that's really cool. The last time I did this job myself I had a problem with a couple of the studs breaking loose from the hub. Probably because I really suck when it comes to torque wrenches, but that's why I was thinking I'll just go with a real mechanic this time. Tech day coming up.

Sunday 9-11 @ 10am-ish - Newer KTM, white and orange (kinda checkery), Guy came down our culd-e-sac in Allied Gardens off Zion. Turned around and lifted the front wheel a bit on power. Wife said "someone you know?" I said "No, but they have a nice bike."

Wife wants to go to some plant sale up there at Weinders? Time for a detour.

I am sorry - My wife reminded me that we have a long awaited concert on the 17th! Otherwise we would have been in! I hope you find a taker. $400 each is a deal!

That's only part of the (OSG) Old Steam Generator - They cut it up to move it. The new ones from Japan looked really Huge when the pulled them up the I-5 against traffic.

I posted my DR200 three times and had dozens of inquiries. Only 3 people came out. The first one wanted it but told me he had just placed a deposit on another bike. He asked me what he should do! Then after several no shows, two buyers showed up within 2 minutes of each other. Neither was willing to pay my full price but I did have a bit of a mini auction between the two. The one that showed up second and drove the furthest was willing to pay more for the bike. I had two buyers show at the same time before and just given it to the first one to get there (when paying full price)

Post #500 - Have a great 4th of July all! This article calls it the highest wood railway trestle in the US - I think you have to add Curved to the description for this to be accurate. Have not been there since the campground was not clothing optional and traveling the tracks was no big deal since it was not inforced. http://www.anzaborrego.net/Travel/AnzaBorrego/post/2009/02/23/Goat-Canyon-Trestle-Revisited.aspx

KTM = Keep Throwin Money

Today (Saturday 6/18 at 4pm-ish) Guy in Shorts with an XL650 pulling out of the parking lot between Chevron and Union Bank On Waring Rd.

We were in section 118 above 3rd not too far from the Western Metal building where you were. Not the best day for the Padres today. I would have rather seen the opener. They used 4 different pitchers today but never brought Harang in. Would have liked to see him pitch since I use to work with his Dad out at Chemtronics.

All 80s cars came with that kit The question is why was it in a 2000 model Yes = lets not turn this into an LEO bashing forum - but honest citizens should know their basic rights and how an honest mistake could result in problems. Mimi - I am sorry about your father. I helped my father before he passed on and it was tough. I cannot even imagine how much more difficult it would have been if he suffered from dementia.
