we don't have to have a meet at a racing area. We could just meet up at some huge parking lot and just check each other's cars out or something.

I vote for the parking lot over here around Old Navy.

1)It's huge
2)It's easy to get to from the freeway (80E or 80W it doesn't matter)
3)Lot's of good places to eat
4)I live less than 5 minutes away!

It's sorta hard for me to be out of town for long periods of time. (I work 7 days a week)

Anyways, lately I've been seeing a few Yaris LB's around here although most are driven by older-eff-the-aftermarket-type drivers. I see more Yaris sedans than I see Honda Fits.

yes, that's a good place, pretty busy tho. there's a great Thai place near-by (Cha-am), Applebees, COSTCO, a Filipino place, Chinese places, Little Ceasar's down the road, movie theater, lots of other places. but yeah, i'd say (if we meet here), meet either to the side of the Pep-Boys, or across Pet-Co at the far-end of Old Navy.

The lot between Petco and Michaels is usually pretty vacant. The area between L&L and Office Max is often vacant too.


Mmm I had to mention L&L. Loco Moco!

I wouldn't mind a meet in the City. I like the idea of Yaris group pix with San Francisco as a backdrop. NorCal represent right!? I just don't like paying $8 to get down there (2 bridges!)

lol...i work at L&L here in Sac. not a huge fan of Loco Moco (probably because i waited too long to eat it that the gravy soaked into the rice). i got pretty tired of the katsu as well. hahaha. bbq beef is still good to me. and oh, oh, you have to get the bbq cheeseburger. hella good.

yeah, toll is getting outtahand. we would have to cross the Carquinez Bridge and the Bay Bridge. man, the Yaris should get some type of discount since it's eco-friendly. lol

L&L employee huh? Does that mean you can get an employee discount? Where is the L&L up there anyway?

LOL, yah we can have Michael's, Bed Bath and Beyond, plus Old Navy as a backdrop!

Man, I'm so tired of the katsu. It's my favorite thing on the menu but it's also my most ordered. Loco moco sounds gross cold, I always have eaten it fresh.

Anyways, IF we all decide on Vallejo, we can always cruise to the waterfront for pix. Actually I can think of a few picturesque places. Dan Foley park? Shit, the park on Jack London @ sunset even (that way we can use the bathroom and #2 at your pad! J/K!)

L&L was a regular stop for us back home, and believe it or not, they just opened a new L&L's here in modesto. its still new they dont even have a menu posted inside! kalua pig tasted the same as back home, although the katsu was a bit dry and tough. havent tried anything else yet. no kim chee in stock.
