Also, as for the next meet, if we want one further up north, My dad manages a storage facility in Mill Valley (Marin) that we could use, it is private property, so no security guards will hassle us!

I usually do all of my mods there because there is more space than my driveway at home, and I can drive it around the facility instead of on the street in case I did something wrong and it breaks.

I'll be there tonight at midnight for the Harry Potter opening tonight! I'm not sure if i'll be in the Yaris or not though.

And if we do choose this route, please do not speed or take the corners beyond your limits. I don't want to see a wrecked Yaris.

It is pretty good for pics. Lots of hills and eucalyptus trees. HDR's taken inside the units look really good as long as you bring a light source.

I can vouch for these roads my buddy lives in Folsom which is another small town near Sacramento like El Dorado Hills. We frequently drive these at 2AM when I go to visit him. They look great at night but the pictures show that they look even better during the day =)

The only problem is that El Dorado Hills is 3 hour drive from San Jose
