    yah, im in the Chevy Chase estates area a couple blocks from the La Cañada border off Chevy Chase Drive...

    i cross over into La Cañada and La Crescenta and Montrose for the bulk of my errands, so you should spot me along Foothill Blvd on my days off dialysis which are Tuesday, Thursday, and weekends...

    Around 4pm today on the westbound 210 in Pasadena... Black 2nd gen lifted with blacked out wheels and offroad tires and stickers in the back windshield... truck was pulling back into traffic after having been pulled over by CHP...

    hope they got a warning instead of a ticket...

    2016 Silver 4x4 Sport (I think it was a sport I briefly glanced) parked at the valet at the spectrum during lunch @12 with what looked like FN wheels. Maybe TRD Pro runner wheels but looked to be a little too shiny to be the runner wheels.

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Was all excited this might have been me...

    Then you said pulled over by CHP and now I'm glad it's not :rofl:
