Dave, When in Rome, Do as the Phoenicians... But wait until you get to Rome.

The first rule of thumb is joining the Arizona Bus Club or SWATO, the Southwest Association of Transporter Owners. Both are NEATO chapters and are both groups of good people. Give a private email and I will help make the connections. You are obviously an intelligent person for arriving in Arizona in the Fall season. This is when Phoenix Metro area comes alive. While everyone else in other parts are tuning up the snowmobile, you will be shopping for new golf clubs. =) Not that I know what I'm talking about but I've only been in Phoenix since 1956. Not quite a native... I drove an aircooled 1983.0 Vanagon Westy for a few years. Dont over react to the changing of hoses thing until you get here and settle in. Same goes for the window tinting. Wait and deal with a reputable tinting vendor who is familiar with Arizona Revised Statutes. Look fwd to meeting you and welcoming you into the "tribe". Jim Ellis Phoenix, AZ
