I don't know much about San Diego housing market prices, but I've had a few friends in the Bay Area buy 2 bedroom places and rent out the 2nd room and make a little profit over buying just a 1br. Then you'd be taking advantage of the buying market AND the renting market. And since you're going to be working on the car, might help to have a buddy around.
Is your job going to keep relocating you? That's another consideration I'm sure you're thinking about.
