Good to be a Nor-Cal thirdgenner

I don't know if any of you have ever noticed, but we hold the 3rd highest post counts in the Regional Boards (US, Canada & Beyond) and are only 200 short of the # 2 spot. (See attached pic).

So-Cal is one of the most densely populated areas around, so not a surprise they are the leaders by a large margin.

Anyways, I was browsing some other forums recently, including the So-Cal boards and was just reminded how thankful I am to live up here amongst my 3rd gen brothers/sisters.

Keep up the good work and positive posting all ! Maybe we take over that # 2 spot in 2010, eh?

145. ..

I'm just bein' silly with this thread, but it's probably inevitable that CA rules the 3rd gen posting world!

I don't even know how Ontario got that many posts. After a quick look it has some classifieds, but looks pretty empty in general.

Re: Good to be a Nor-Cal thirdgenner

Its really is good to own a third gen in NorCal, I see plenty of them on the road and enough of them in the junkyard to make it easy to find parts for them. I'm pretty sure we have more third gens in NorCal than they Have in all of Canada.

Re: Good to be a Nor-Cal thirdgenner

Anybody browse the So-Cal boards on here lately? Yikes!

The core of long-timers down there have imploded with drama and negativity that the thread below only details a small portion of:

https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/sout...day-video.html

I guess wisdom doesn't always come with age!

Oh. ..and 41 posts from # 2!

Re: Good to be a Nor-Cal thirdgenner

Just on more reason Norcal Is so much nicer than Socal. Now if only they would take care of our roads up here like they do down there. I'm so tired of all the damn potholes and crap we have so many of up here. But I'd rather have potholes then Hollywood sized ego's.

Re: Good to be a Nor-Cal thirdgenner

48,195 - Nor-Cal!
48,183 - Ontario
That's pretty impressive, only took 2 weeks! It's the small things in life I tell ya.

Can I defect to Nor-Cal?
Please?
You're always welcome to join in the fun, Julie. We definitely keep it a lot lighter here. I can tell you are not pleased with the latest drama down there, but I'm sure life will go on in So-Cal.

Thanks for playing along all
