My wife moved from North Carolina (Cary NC) to LA after we got married, we lived in Culver City just across the street from West LA. She hated every single minute of LA. When we moved to Northern Cal for a job in 2001, she was so happy. I kid you not, she would divorce me in a minute if I decided to move back to LA. If I want to get her angry, I joke with her that we are moving back to LA after I retire, she doesn't even find that remotely humorous
And yep, LA was such a hassle that we would stay home on weekends and watch Cops reruns. That's when we decided "let's get the hell back to Knoxville and buy a house" and that's exactly what we did!!! It's increased in value by 150%!

Bay Area/SF is way better than SoCal, they just need to get their shyttt together and hopefully they will.

Oh yeah, there's literally nowhere in the world I'd rather live than West Knoxville, TN. The mountains are 45 minutes away. Tons of lakes for boating. Nothing taxes. It's a beautiful area.

16:30. This is exactly what I love about ours. Lots of buttons. It's not just me. And look at that column shifter, they should offer is a n/c option on the big SUVs.

I hate it. Can't touch anything and it's a dust magnet, and micro scratches. Endless. Micro scratches. It took me nearly 6 hours to polish them out of the D4s, the W12 only has it around the shifter to boot and NOWHERE ELSE. They should have just make it aluminum like the dash/doors/etc....the 4.0 has it all over the dash and doors
