ParticipantYou may want to hold off in cutting back on water use until it is mandatory..
(I’m not suggesting wasting water however)

ParticipantI had an I-6, I do know the cyl head had been replaced.
I didn’t have any tranny issues thankfully, still even correctly replacing a battery is a $400-500 deal on a modern BMW.

The city is too big. Our ideal city size would probably be around 50K. I know T/M the population is around 200K — so it’s bigger than we would like, but it’s not anything like Austin size (or San Diego size for that matter).[/quote]
Unless I missed this, sounds like you need to visit. For all that is great about Temecula and so cal in general, Temecula like essentially anywhere else in so cal is *PACKED* with people. I’m talking buts to nuts.
The official population of Temecula is 105k, but it’s 105k much the same way a city in the san fernando valley might have a population of 100k.
You’d never know….

I was so happy to recently get rid of my BMW, by the time I traded it in I couldn’t even keep the engine light off with my OBD tool.
I kept getting OBD codes related to the cooling system. I barely got it through the emissions check; I was literally afraid to drive it fearing yet another costly issue.
I’m embarrassed to admit this: I lost money on my BMW.
It was fun to drive in the beginning, but once the never ending problems starting showing up I was glad to see it go – even at a loss.
Oh well, lesson learned.

ParticipantCalifornia = Single party rule
All of the negative comments about texas don’t surprise me given the superficial nature of so cal/SD.

ParticipantI hear it mentioned often that many who leave so cal/SD frequently return. But honestly, is California really that great?
There’s a reason California refugee’s are told to remove their license plates BEFORE arriving at their next settlement.

ParticipantYes, Temecula is a competitive housing market and for good reason.
For starters, check out the activities guide for Temecula – the city put’s this out 2 or 3 times a year and has done so for as long as I can remember.

There’s something for everyone, and plenty of awesome sports fields and parks.
I’m not aware of any neighborhoods in San Diego that have a comparable number of high quality sports fields vs Temecula.

ParticipantWashington Times: US Economy will Crash on March 4, 2014
MEANS: U.S. economy on schedule to crash March 4, 2014
America’s fall will take global economies with itThose wild and crazy Mayans put down their marker that the end of the world would occur on Dec. 21, 2012 — about two months from now. There is, of course, some small chance that they might be right. On the other hand, there is a very large probability that the real end of the world will occur around March 4, 2014.
The doomsday clock will ring then because the U.S. economy may fully crash around that date, which will, in turn, bring down all world economies and all hope of any recovery for the foreseeable future — certainly over the course of most of our lifetimes.Read more: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/oct/25/us-economy-on-schedule-to-crash-march-2014/#ixzz2scYPjBBV

Participant[quote=scaredyclassic]It seems excessive to rent a million dollar home.[/quote]
That’s basically what I said, but depending on where it is it could be rented out as a vacation type property.
That can be very lucrative as I understand…
paramount
ParticipantSell.
Be honest with yourself, are you realistically coming back? Once you leave SD, it’s hard to do a “u-turn and return.”
Besides, the rental market in that price range is very weak. I think.

ParticipantHarvard Economist: Get your money out of US Banks
Last week I had over $1,000,000 in a checking account at Bank of America. Next week, I will have $10,000.
Why am I getting in line to take my money out of Bank of America? Because of Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen, who officially begins her term as chairwoman on Feb. 1.
Before I explain, let me disclose that I have been a stopped clock of criticism of the Federal Reserve for half a decade. That’s because I believe that when the Fed intervenes in markets, it has two effects — both negative. First, it decreases overall wealth by distorting markets and causing bad investment decisions. Second, the members of the Fed become reverse Robin Hoods as they take from the poor (and unsophisticated) investors and give to the rich (and politically connected).
paramount
Participant[quote=spdrun]No: all this because the markets outpaced economic conditions. Cutting QE is just a warning shot across the bow to get the markets to be more in line with fundamentals.[/quote]
A shot across the bow or a test or both?
From what I understand, earnings are generally good.
Just goes to show how heavily the equities market is manipulated – very little moving on fundamentals only on fed action.
