Headin to AZ Tomorrrow
 
So the trailer is almost packed, car is strapped, and I'm almost ready to drive 1700 miles.

Narrowed it down between a couple houses in either Stanfield or Casa Grande.

One of the questions I do have though, who in the hell do ya'll get internet through? I've called Cox, Comcast, Verizon, and none of them offer high speed internet in Stanfield or Casa Grande.

Not 100% sure about Case Grande but when I lived in Mesa, we used Cox. My buddy lives in Arizona City and he gets Cox and youre in between the 2, so I would assume Cox.

:rofl: u sed cox!

Flashwing 01-02-2010 12:41 AM

Cox is the cable internet provider out here. When you finally land be sure to come find all of us at BHR and hang out!

Why Stanfield or Casa Grande?

Jedi54 01-02-2010 01:52 AM

^^^ cus it's far away from YOU.

MazdaManiac 01-02-2010 12:08 PM

Stanfield? Population 1000. lol
I'm pretty sure there isn't any internet down there. Its mostly a trailer camp.
Casa Grande probably has Comcast, though the vast majority of people there are still on dial-up.

Fate710 01-02-2010 10:06 PM

Looking closer, the house is towards Arizona City, and it has QWest Internet available(is it any good? LOL).

As long as its a decent connection, I'm not too worried.

Hopefully the roads aren't too bad either, cause otherwise I'm gona bottom out on everything.


Also, where is a good place to get my fenders rolled? Once I put the new spacers on, I'm definitely gona need a roll and possible new suspension adjustments.

Easy_E1 01-02-2010 10:42 PM

Qwest is going to be a DSL internet connection. As far as rolling your fenders one of the guys on Arizona Mazda Club.com has one. I'll see if I can figure out who it is and let you know.

Fate710 01-02-2010 11:43 PM

Yeah I had been looking at their(QWest) site, and they show a 20MBs connection available. If that is the case, and it actually is a fast DSL connection, then I'll be happy. I do alot of gaming on my computer and upload videos so a faster connection the better.


Also, where would be a good place to either find an aftermarket under tray, or a stock one. Mine has been ripped to shreds from old roads back home.

One last question, is there any kind of noise restrictions as a state law, or is it just based upon the area you are in. My exhaust is almost as loud as some sport bikes with D&D Mufflers and Sidewinders.

Easy_E1 01-03-2010 12:06 AM

As far as DSL speed, 20mb, that's going to be MAX speed on a great day.

Under tray? BHR can get you a new factory one below retail. Andf you'll need it when summer comes for the added cooling ability.

As for your exhaust,, if they haven't stopped Flashwing I think you'll be OK. AZ is not that bad on vehicle laws. If you can drive a Prostock Dragster down the road, licensed. And you can! I don't think you have much to worry about.

Fate710 01-03-2010 12:24 AM

It all sounds good. Once we get moved in, I guess I'm going to have to find BHR and take a look around.

Are there any kind of hang-out/cruise spots or is that more towards Phoenix/Tuscon. I know we had some back in Indianapolis.

Fate710 01-05-2010 12:29 AM

I'm in Eloy now. Gona unload the car tomorrow and go looking for a job. Might take a cruise up to BHR if that is ok?

I don't know what Ray Hill's schedule is but PM him if you're interested in visiting. I'm working my day job all week but I'm sure you'll find Easy_E hanging around as well!

Easy_E1 01-05-2010 04:41 PM

Send PM's to us and we'll hook up. I'm at CRH's right now doing coil kits.

xexok 01-05-2010 08:49 PM

Quest is great internet, I switched from cable to quest dsl once and it actually uploads way faster than cable. The download speed was less, but not bad.

Fate710 01-07-2010 12:27 AM

Ill send a couple PMs out in the morning. I need to put some more job applications in. I forgot after having a job for so long, that is sucks to try and find one again.

Easy_E1 01-07-2010 12:30 AM

We'll be here, or there, or somewhere.

Fate710 01-07-2010 11:32 AM

Done w/ the joining on the other site, and sent a PM out.
