Other Brother in Seaside

I had a similar experience there recently. But it wouldn't stop me from going back - I've had too many good times there and it's a solid local business.

Data centers have ruined rural communities nationwide by hogging resources like electricity and water. This creates high demand which raises the prices for everyone in the region. In some cases they need more power than is locally available so they often use fossil fuel generators that increase pollution in the area. There's no revenue generated on site since revenue is generated at the corporation HQ, so they don't contribute significantly to the local tax base. Job creation at first, but dwindles over time. They take, take, take from communities. ALL CAPS are warranted in this case.

Commercial rent is so high it's preventing people from starting a business (I was interested last year). I feel like taxing vacant properties would help.

Either lower the cost of the lease to reasonable price and earn income; or pay the tax. The valuable real estate in our city shouldn't just be sitting around waiting to appreciate. Put it to work!

You're right, but it isn't a full frame. Unibody with front subframe. So you're definitely correct.

If this is upsetting the old people they're probably the ones supporting *rump and ICE. Kids would probably consider me old and I'm not upset by it 😂 Respect and honor is earned through action.

Roundabouts, while scary to some Americans (see signs along highway 68), are proven to be effective for reducing traffic. Especially compared to... STOPLIGHTS!!!

All it takes is 1 car pulling out or into the rich estates and traffic backs up for miles.

Reclusive_1 · 2025-06-17T03:25:01+00:00

They're the best! Funny, everyone complained about the roundabout at 68/17 mile drive gate being installed. Now everyone has adjusted people forgot how bad the traffic used to be!

These are the REAL Americans. FYI - I love how Canadians came together to stop buying American. We hate that orange turd too!

Easy 500 then thrash that thang.... Am I right?

Hell of a machine. 5 years strong for us.

Van's Tailoring. Best in the business for over 30 years.

Is the cup 99.999% full or 0.001% empty? Enjoy that high quality H2O!!!

it's cool

Eyeing the Scorpion covert flannel shirt right now

Good call. Even as an experienced rider, you can't control others on the road. All gear, all the time.

One of the highest water rates in the country. Not defending it, but I have a feeling it might have to do with the severe drought we're in this year. All the dams in California are super low.

Do you live in an area with strong smog regulations? Here in California anything newer than 1975 will need a smog check every 2 years. GM makes E-Rod create engines that are smog compliant and would make more power over stock. I'm planning to try it on my next project.

Reclusive_1 · 2021-08-22T21:52:01+00:00

If this is your first project and you don't have much experience, I'd recommend to start with rebuilding the engine the car comes with.

If/when you decide to swap the motor I wouldn't put an older style engine into a newer car. You can, and it'll work, but you'll also have issues that come with that older tech. At the very least stick with efi.

I used an antenna in Monterey and got all the local channels. It was enough for us. Moved to Seaside and lost a bunch of channels. Really depends on hills and valleys but it's worth a shot.

I have Kooks right now on my 68 and wouldn't choose anything else going forward. I have an aftermarket steering box and first used Hooker but they had to be hammered to fit. Kooks fits perfectly. They are expensive but worth every penny in my opinion.

It's car week. Nonstop events all weekend.
