Calling all Oregonians - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

sam.u.el · 05-28-2012, 11:44 PM

This thread is pretty much just meant to see how many C5'ers are in Oregon. Its a little lonely as far as camaros in my area so I just want an idea of who's where, and how many are out there. Forgive me if this was started already or if its pointless.
Thanks for stopping by!

Nice! Glad to see there is some oregonians in the forums. I'm from a town most of you probably haven't heard of. Its Madras, nothing but ricers here :(

Teamradrz1 · 05-30-2012, 01:02 AM

I know Madras, use to have a client there and would make the trip every couple months. Also use to go camping at Sisters too.

1979Z282012LTRS · 05-30-2012, 01:39 AM

Sounds like we need a cruise-in somewhere.

sam.u.el · 05-31-2012, 08:47 PM

I really wish I could make it to the cruise-in but I work that day :(. I really need to look ahead at event dates so I can request them off.

Teamradrz1 · 05-31-2012, 11:14 PM

July 21st Columbia river Camaro Club and Ron Tonkin Chevy is doing a cruise in there should be a lot of Camaros there

keving2873 · 05-31-2012, 11:50 PM

I used to live in Redmond, OR. Moved back to WA last year. We have family that still lives in Madras, maybe we can do a little meet when we come down to visit?

BumbleBee5 · 06-01-2012, 10:24 PM

Sherwood here. See you guys in a week!

Portland Oregon born and raised

azrickster · 06-04-2012, 12:22 AM

I am considering a move from Phoenix Arizona to the Seattle, WA or Portland, OR area. Looking at weather.com, there appears to be lot of rain from what I am used to. Also, snow is something I haven't had to deal with when driving my Camaro. I currently have a bit over 40K on my Camaro, drive it all the time. The club I belong to does a lot of runs and charity shows.
I'm looking at various posts and see a lot of activity - but how often do you get the Camaro out? Do you guys get snow tires on the Camaro during the winter months or just park it?

I am south of Portland about 1hr 45mins in Eugene. I drive my car every day. Portland only gets a couple of days a year of snow. Those day you just call in sick

If you don't like rain don't move to Seattle. It is a great city but it rains a ton.

Snow is very rare here in Portland unless you head to the mountains, rain yes but I drive my Camaro everyday rain or shine I just enjoy it. Seattle is more expensive, rains more and on average probably 10 degrees cooler than Portland.

I'm across the river from Portland. Travel a lot yet when I'm home I drive it daily. Summers in the Pacific North West CAN'T be beat! Yes it does rain. But you wash your car, right? Yes there are clubs in both areas. I can speak for Columbia River Camaro Club as a member, we do a lot of activities as a group and as a few members just out having fun. We are a charity club with no pressure. Think over your move. our climate averages only a 45 degree change from summer to winter with a few odd days.

Thanks for the responses. I have a develoment background, something I haven't been able to get back into since the economy went bust. I've been looking for jobs with utilities and the government. Hopefully something pops and I can meet you guys!
