Default Yeah so Im in Love with Phoenix...........

Is it just me or does anyone else love this place?! Ive been in and out of AZ my whole life mostly up to Show Low/ Lakeside area but my grandpa and his family are from Arizona and he was dying to go to the ASU game this weekend so we made a split at 5am in the Benz through the Dunes down the 10 and into Phoenix! I was so excited last minute I booked a suite in Biltmore at the Embassey Suites. So it only look 2 1/2 hours to get there ( i was driving fast) but I was so excited and we got there and it was awesome! Theres like 5 malls all on the same street and the Malls have the best stores ever! The best resterants ever!

The heat was no biggie where im from its always 111 on a good day. I only saw a bunch of XB's none new all were pretty modded and what I saw I liked. I didnt see any Tc's nor Xa's! Anyways I had a great time and I am sooo down to go back but I would like to go to a meet if you guys/girls have any! Lemme Know Im going back for the SDSU game!

Phoenix is pretty sweet. I always enjoy it when I get over there.

Actually, I wouldn't say I am "from" Sierra Vista... more like staying here until I am told to move!

i see a lot of tC's and xB's but not a lot of xA's or the new xB's only a couple. there's suppose to be a big mall in tempe (east of phoenix). i don't really like phx it's to hot. i miss the nice california wheather where it's 70 degrees around this time and i don't have to blast the ac every time i get in my car. i live 1/2 a mile from camelback and there is always construction somewhere.

The joys of an evergrowing city....you will always have traffic, construction, smog, etc. One of the perks to a major city. Personally there is too much crime and traffic for my taste and YES.....way too much construction!!! Overall, Phoenix is a good place to live, but I would have to say 65 miles West of Denver in a small town called Frisco is my favorite place to live. Never gets above 85 in the summer and hardly any humidity!!!

I love it here. I moved here after spending the last 22 years of my life in Detroit. I couldn't be happier.

My family is in Philly...makes it easy to live where ever you want. The joys of the airplane, I love my family, but I think I would go crazy if I lived near them after living so far away for so long. You kind of get used to making your own family!
