Default Moving to San Antonio

hey all, im currently in Phoenix, AZ and after I finish school, im looking to move to san Antonio. im from el paso so going back to the great state of Texas is obvious. well, my question is, hows the car scene in san Antonio? I have a few Camaros and me and my wife(and kids), love to go cruising and race and what not. I also wanted to know how the economy is? housing here in phx is pretty cheap, but so is the pay. what areas is a good place to look for a nice home, with a big garage and access to putting cars in the backyard? and no HOA. also hows the job scene? I really would like to work at a speed shop, but most of my experience on paper is diesel trucks. but above all, who is down to bbq and throw back a few when I get there?!

I was planning on moving to SA a couple o months back but plans changed when I got a great offer here at home. (Odessa) between El Paso and SA. Housing is pretty cheap, I know houses are about $50-80k cheaper than Odessa. Holler at move when you move I go at least once a month to San Antonio.

There's a few meets that go on a regular basis here in Sa. There's also a few shops you may wanna apply at. Henderson Performance in New Braunfels, Fuel Injection Specialties, Nelson Performance, Lethal Performance etc.

Also check out http://www.modernmuscleperformance.com/ theres some cool cats in there and all live in Sa and have ok cars. Theres this one guy named Chon with a blue stang, its like really slow, but the kid has a good heart, god bless him and his slowness.

awesome man. I can imagine there are some fast imports and mustangs to play with right? lol. I heard pretty good things about those shops. hopefully those guys aren't to packed with techs right now. ill have to hit them up. I checked out that website and all I found was a performance online store...

hell yea man that's what im looking forward to. the car scene here is pretty big here too, but a lot of people here like to run their mouths, not their cars. the only reason I don't want to live in HOA is because of my cars. I get ticketed here for working on my cars in the garage with the garage doors open. also for parking in the street since my driveway and garage only hold 4 cars. that's why I want access to put a car in the backyard.
