According to 'ivlife.com' writer Eric Galvan TF2 will be getting partially filmed in the valley:

"Imperial County Film Commission liaison Susie Carrillo announced during Wednesday’s City Council meeting that the commission was bidding to get the filming of “Transformers 2” in the Imperial Valley.

Carrillo said the Imperial County Film Commission would know within the next month if filming for the movie, a live-action adaptation of the widely popular 1980s cartoon, would take place locally. The film would be scheduled to begin shooting in the fall.

Carrillo also said new film commission Executive Director Charlotte Teeters will be starting in June.

It was also announced that the film commission will be “under the umbrella” of the Imperial Valley’s Joint Chambers of Commerce and will be housed in the El Centro Chamber of Commerce building."

So far, it's rumored to be filming in Philadelphia, Arizona, and now California.

Of course, they could all be true to some extent. They could be filming city scenes in Philly, desert scenes in Arizona, and other scenes (mountains? indoor studios?) in Cali.
