Anyone here from the Knoxville area?
nope , but im and hour and a half from jackson and the same from memphis..
I got a great job offer in Alcoa, and I was hoping to find someone in that area who could help me with info. Ya I lived in Memphis for over 20 years, but I'm up north now, wanting to go home.
I am in Knoxville. My email is tbucket@comcast.net
JimmyJeep,There are a few guys on the forum from that area.HemiTCoupe is headed that way and I am sure he has made a few contacts there.
I hail from Morristown (35 mi.east),like you I wanna go home LOL,but the Boss likes Texas better.
Keep the thread open they will show. Good Luck
Yep! we're headed that way, the inlaws live in Maryville, which is next to Alcoa, I can't tell you much. I do know that a bunch of people on this site live around there. I'm going to busy visiting them after we get seatled in. I won't know anyone there, other than inlaws :HMMM:
I'll have 3 things to do after we get moved in, 1-up date house to wifes spec's, 2- work on both T's, 3- my R/C hobbies. :D

Well I lived I'm Memphis for over 20 years, but have not seen that part of the state ,
I just wanted to know which town between Alcoa and Knoxville would be the better place to look for a house to rent .
I would say that will depend on where you are going to work. On the first of May, yes 2 weeks from today. I-40 the main highway thru Knoxville will be closed for 18 months to build new bridges. Alcoa is kinda west and south of Knoxville.
then you already know the best thing to come out of memphis??????Quote:

I'm told Maryville 1st, then Alcoa 2nd.

Maryville is south of Alcoa. The 2 cites touch and you really can't tell when you go from one to the other. You might look for housing in Greenback. It is down 411 south of Maryville.
You guys moving this way need to check out the Tail Of the Dragon
http://www.tailofthedragon.com/ also

Lots of big rod runs here
Guys, I really appreciate the input. The job is out of Alcoa so I suppose the closer I get the better, I just cant afford a high rent district during the move.:whacked:
Are you going to work for Alcoa? The aluminum company.
nope, its for yale carolina as a forklift repair dude, my 33rd year.:D
