Participant[quote=bpnbpn]woww for home with schools in mira mesa, the price is too high…The other problem is, this place is away from all the high ways…so it takes at least 15 minutes (up to 30 mins during peak hour) to get to I-15. It would take 10 to 15 minutes to go to I-5, It would take 10 to 15 minutes to go to I-805. It would take 20 minutes to go to CA-56…not a good location except that you will get the ocean breeze during summer.[/quote]
Your time are off. 3-5 minutes to the 5, 5-10 minutes to the 805, 5-10 minutes to the 56, and 5-10 minute to the 15. Traffic time won’t affect your time, since its inside road.Agree about the school. It’s pretty ghetto.

Do you have a jet? 5-10 minutes to reach I-15? Just drive up mira mesa blvd towards I-15 around 5 PM and tell us how much it would take.
5-10 minutes to CA-56? Look at google maps (with no traffic and no stop at signals):
It says 13 minutes the best case.
Basically the location is in the middle of no where and unless you work at Qualcomm and plan to send your kids to a private school, this is not the place for you.

[/quote]I agree, it is inside road but you still have to drive down to Mira Mesa Blvd and drive through Mira Mesa Blvd to go to I-15 though.

Pardee very rarely comes up with new floor plans. Most communities have floor plans that are basically copies of older communities.

Even I know that isnt true and I havent lived in MM nearly my entire life like AN
Try Calle Cristobal to Camino Ruiz to Capricorn to Black Mountain to Mercy. You can get to 15 easy in 1o minutes from Sorrento Heights

I have lived right in Capricorn way for several years. The whole street from Camino Ruiz to Black Mtn should have around 10 stop signs and at least 10 speed bumps. 10 minutes is overly underestimated.
The best case estimate in Goolge Maps (with no traffic and no stops) is 15 minutes (for the route you have mentioned):
June 15, 2012 at 11:06 PM #745877ParticipantReally? It takes you as long as Google maps says?
When I use my GPS around SD, I consistently get places in 5 to 10 minutes less than the GPS says when i first enter the destination.
As a test I just entered my address and my best friends address in Santa Ana. I make the drive at least 2 or 3 times a month and know exactly how long it takes me. Google maps said 1 hr and 9 minutes. It takes me 53 to 55 minutes almost every time.

That’s just really lame.
Wonder how construction quality is with Pardee, any idea?

It is lame. It is especially lame because their floor plans suck to start with. Lifestyles are changing, but Pardee’s floor plans are not keeping up.
As far as construction, I’m no expert. I do know that Pardee will do anything to save a nickel.

No you don’t. Black mountain and mercy will get you to the 15. Also, taking capricorn is the wrong way to go.June 16, 2012 at 8:27 AM #745894Participant[quote=ocrenter][quote=sdrealtor]Really? It takes you as long as Google maps says?

And in perhaps the most egregious Google maps error, they list the drive time from Sky Ranch to La Jolla as twenty nine minutes. Any true Pigg knows its ten minutes.
June 16, 2012 at 9:51 AM #745901ParticipantThis is the way you want to go if you want to get on the 15 to go north: http://goo.gl/maps/3820 or to go south: http://goo.gl/maps/SNOS. To go Norht, There’s about 7 lights and 3 stop sign with 1 speed bump. You’d rarely be stuck at a red light for long on Calle Cristobal. 2 of the lights are right turns, so you don’t have to wait for it to turn green. I’ve done that drive many times and average is 5-10 minutes, depending on how long the left turn is for getting onto Black mountain.
To get to the 5: http://goo.gl/maps/6vYv, with about 3-4 lights. Even Google map show 6 minutes. http://binged.it/LcxZiD, 5 minutes with Bing.
To get to the 805: http://goo.gl/maps/I19s, http://binged.it/Lcy4me. Google & Bing estimate 8 minutes.
To the 56: http://goo.gl/maps/v5Jt. Google estimate 11 minutes. http://binged.it/KQ3E4V, 8 minutes with Bing.
To 52/805: http://goo.gl/maps/t750, Google estimate 12 minutes. http://binged.it/KQ3w5s with Bing.
To 52/5: http://goo.gl/maps/u5EG, Google estimate 13 minutes. http://binged.it/LcxIMp, Bing estimate 9 minutes.
To La Jolla Shores: http://goo.gl/maps/8PWE, 17 minutes. http://binged.it/KQ4636, Bing estimate 14 minutes.
To Torrey Pines Beach: http://binged.it/KQ2E0B & http://binged.it/LcyitF or http://binged.it/LcyjxS, 12-15 minutes to Torrey Pines.
To Downtown: http://binged.it/KQ2PsR or http://binged.it/KQ4BKr, 17-20 minutes.
Keep in mind all of the directions with freeway assume you’re driving 65 MPH.
