Default Taking a trip out west

Well, I left the Ram at the airport today for 3 weeks, just got into Tucson AZ which i will call home for a while. Work related stuff. Any one know of any Junkyards out this way. I could use some small interior components. Thought I could pilferage a different area.

There's a good one up the road in Phoenix but I'll be darned if I can think of the name just now. If it comes to me I'll be sure to post it for ya.

Well it's close enough. A lot closer then Virginia.

We moved around for my dads work a lot, he was a cable contractor. My youngest sister and I were born in Chapel Hill & Raleigh, NC. Middle sister was born in San Diego, Ca.

Colder than I thought it would be, around 25* in the morning, only in the high 40s low 50s during the day.

Cool view from the hotel, except for all the power lines.

We're having an extreme cold spell right now. Normally it would be around 65-70° for highs and 40-50° for lows. There is a U-Pull-It in South Tucson. Just remember, the UV rays are so strong here plastic rarely lives longer than 10 years, even when inside or indoors. SO, the picking may be slim here, too. On a plus note, we have a higher percentage of Dodge trucks in Arizona than any other state, so they are plentiful.

Thanks for the info, I will have to check them out while I'm here. I hope the cold spell doesn't last too much longer.

that's like saying Tennessee is on the east coast...

AZ is not west coast. :P nor is idaho or montana or nevada...and we don't claim alaska either

canada can have alaska for all I care

washington, oregon, and california are only west coast states
