I work in Beaverton, very close to Kuni. I also live in the area, technically unincorporated WA Co. I'm also an import, but from NY.
We will get you off of tourist crap and into much better places to drink and hang. The amount of great little places in PDX is staggering and in all my travels in the US and abroad Portland is an impressive little city. However, few of those places exist in Beaverton as far as I can tell.
COBB Surgeline has a nice First Thursday meet, but this conflicts with the artsy first Thursday down town once that gets going again (you can do both, I have). Lots to do, esp. starting this time of year.
There is a large range of folks on here in terms of what they do with their cars, jobs, knowledge base, etc., which always makes for interesting threads.
So welcome, and I hope to see you around...esp. if you actually track your car.
