    Hey everyone, nice to see there's a local group!

    I'm retiring from the Navy and relocating to the Triangle in October. Hoping to find a place to live in the Cary/Apex/Holly Springs area.

    o_O No you're supposed to say this place sucks! Too many californians coming to town :deadhorse: All my new neighbors(1/2 dozen or more) are moving from Cali, nothing political.

    Every market here is going crazy, Google feed keeps giving me stories of how it's the number X place to move to, and there's a radio commercial talking people into leaving the hustle and bustle of the concrete jungle and moving to Percy Flowers (where they're bulldozing all the trees and making it a concrete jungle)

    Funny, come further east to the OBX for the real crazies. We’ll be relocating to the Kenly area within a year. Living in “paradise” just ain’t doing it for us anymore.

    Do we have any LEO or other background that can "check a VIN"? I'm in the market for a project vehicle, none of which that I can find have a title. I want to make the the VIN is clear before I apply for a bonded title.

    Most sheriffs depts will run a vin to make sure it’s not stolen for free. Mainly cause they will go bust someone if it is stolen. At least the new Hanover county sheriff does.. worth a phone call

    Anyone know of a good mechanic in the Raleigh area? I'm considering a transmission fluid change (either all of it or a drain and fill), and I don't usually like to mess with that stuff myself.

    Thanks

    Welcome to NC, you are in the right place, they usually post taco events here. Jeep owners are welcome but get extra crap when you roll.

    Whip? Now that is a first I've heard someone use for a taco. Looks like it was a solid build.
