It's not for everyone, but I still miss things about it to this day.

That's what I'm hearing but I can't figure out how people deal with it. I can't find any real solutions to it other than to suck it up. lol

It's a nice view but you pay for it. Even a block off the beach and the salt air is hell on my truck, because the parking garage is open air.
Awwwww, didn't even think about the ride or electronics. That doesn't sound good at all. So how do you deal with it?

Since you live a block away, at sea level, do you think it would still be an issue if you were elevated? Another option I was looking at is up on a hill quite a bit, but still pretty much on the water, just up a ways.
