Default New to the list - NorCal.

Y'all,

My name is Drew and I am new to the forum. I have had a LR3 that we call "DSR" [ Daddy's Sweet Ride]. I got it new in 06 and take it out here and there, more now that it is a little older and ready to have more fun. I have been a long-time member of the Northern California Land Rover Club and just got around to joining this list.

I am no technical guru. Or even adept, but I love my truck and until I get a $400,000 sportcar, LRs are all I hope to own.

On a personal side, I am an attorney here in Northern California and have my own practice. I do a lot of different things for individuals and small businesses. I have 3 kids who love to off-road, and one wife who screams in terror when she rides with me. (I don't take her as much as I take the kids). With three little ones, I don't get off-roading as much as I would like, but I try and get to Hollister Hills a few times a year and whenever we travel by car, I manage to find a place or two to get some mud under the wheels.

Hope to meet more of you,
Drew.

@ SavannahBuzz. "Random thoughts" are my specialty. Lived in HOTLANTA for a few years - wish it would have been Savannah, I liked that town a lot more. Pix of some of my more impressive driving will follow.

@wheelgarage - I know you didn't mean it, but your comment, "semi-business, international trade law" made me think, well, a bit of tade from Columbia, hence it was not a full business, just "semi" as is "semi-business: I make a livin', but not legal".

I guess this is where I post the warning that I enjoy a good joke, even more when they are at my expense and sometimes a good idea for a joke turns out bad when typed to a group of strangers. The above joke started out good, but then fell flat as month old soda.

Anyway, I handle a lot of civil litigation, Copyright/Trademark suits, business litigation (contract, debt disputes, insurance) and commercial real estate. I believe in the mantra of given almost anyone 30 minutes of my time because if I can't help them, maybe I can find someone who can. I consider it payment into the Karma bank.

Right now, I am searching for some 18" wheels for my truck as I am sick of the crappy options for tires in the 19". I don't have any modifications on my truck, but hope to do that now - some nice rock sliders hopefully.

Lived in ATL for over 20 years, starting back when Indian Trail was dirt from the freeway to Lilburn, and Town Center Mall was a Texaco station and pine trees....
