I support any local meets since I am tired of hanging out with the 2GS and SC3/400 guys; count me in

Jumped the gun yesterday, wife and I drove from San Juan Capistrano to brophys in Santa Barbara.

its closed for remodeling until the 20th hopefully.

ate at the beachfront grille next to it. Very good.

320 miles and 6 1/2 hour drive time I am LA'ed out.

turned up the excellent ML stereo to blast the fellow stop and go freeway denizens with talking heads, "stop making sense."

Car was bouncing and the top down at 8pm and the windows up including the quarter windows and the a/c system getting a workout as needed.

91 degrees just south of downtown LA at noon.

a/c and windows up and top down worked very well. Stronger air in the Lexus versus our 07 Solara convertible.

24.3 mpg. Uses lots of gas pedal at times.

weather was great. 75 in Santa Barbara.

the pioneer/beats head REALLY brings out the "good" in the ML stereo system.

.....since I'm in Texas, I probably couldn't make it out for this (lol)...but just a thought,...I see there's a post for a No. Cal ride, so why not meet halfway, N.Cal & S.Cal???.....that could be a really nice meet & greet

From Los Angeles to S.F., via the coastal route, is around 8 hours... meeting half way would be four hours, and I'm not sure where we'd meet...

I'm thinking Sunday, March 26th as the meet-up date, as no one had an objection to that date, but I'm hoping we'll have more people interested!

I checked some older threads, with previous caravans, and it looks pretty cool, all those SC430's, lined up!

So... anyone else interested in joining us for a drive up the coast?

I'm up for it!

I think I have to opt out this time guys. I can't do an all-day thing, but if there is ever another get together, I would love to try to join. Have a great time and take lots of photos!

So, are we on for March 26? LA and SF to San Louis Obispo? I need to know so I can plan ahead. We only have 10 days to plan the meet.

Great! Glad to have you with us!

What time do we want to meet in San Louis Obispo?

Should the So. Californians meet up somewhere in Malibu, and caravan up? Dukes Malibu has plenty of parking.. we could meet there, then caravan up to SLO?

It doesn't look like the NO Cal folks going to join us for the meet in San Louis Obispo. Do you guys in So Cal want to fall back to the original idea, just meet up in Malibu, have lunch and have fun?

We need to take a roll call to see who going to be there:

1. ShelJW
2. GmanSC
3. Frankly
4. KingReyes

If you interest, please fill in.

SBlevins, are you going to join us since we only do half of the day? ShelJW, can you give us the address of Dukes?
