    hey there! i would have to say that stang life is alive and kicking! if you do move out here you will learn to drink lots and lots of water! and az has killer sunsets/sunrises, awesome camping and hiking.

    Welcome!! Are you a licensed contractor in the HVAC business or mechanic only? Either way AZ is definately the place to be, you will always be busy especially during the summer months.

    Welcome

    Welcome. I moved to Mesa AZ from Utica NY............well it's been a while. We were back there last July to visit. When we first moved out here our car insurance nearly doubled for me and my wife. On the bright side you won't need a "winter rat". In the Phoenix area you'll be able to drive your nice Mustang year round. There is plenty to see and do around here, you should Never be bored!

    ive got about 8yrs in the trade. ive had my freon certification for about 6 yrs now. i started as a sheetmetal installer and last year i ran ac service for a while. ive done a lot of commercial work as well. i also have a B certification in auto mechanics. i went to a vocational school while in high school for auto mechanics. not sure how the hell i ended up doing heating/ac. pays the bills though and its pretty interesting. also, i do all of my own everything. mechanics, heat/ac, carpentry, tile, electric, roofing, you name it. im a man of many hats...lol. more than anything though i love the smell of 112 octane. foxbody mustangs are my passion. im hoping to meet more people like myself in az. im not going to lie... ny sucks. people here are rude and obnoxious. everybody wants to be "top dog" in the damn parking lots around here. just reading your forums i can tell that all you guys are really friendly. thank you all for welcoming me aboard. im looking forward to meeting you guys at the strip.
