    Thanks man. She's going for her doctorates in nursing and she told me when she's done I can quit my job and go for this so I'm pretty grateful and stoked on that part. Helping to pay for this special piece of expensive framed paper will be fun though
    :spending:

    She's got the book smarts and I have the common sense.. so I like to think at least :argue:

    Can’t go wrong with nursing. My sister is a traveling nurse (no doctorate degree or anything like your gf is going after) and she does really well for herself. You got yourself a keeper there haha

    Waiting on my gf to get her masters right now as well. One more year!! Been saving up for 4 years to open my own office. Allstate requires a good bit to give you the nod. Can’t wait to have that second income when she graduates :fingerscrossed::boink::popcorn:

    Hahaha the popcorn :rofl:

    That's sweet man! That would be a good gig there. Anything in the medical department will get you places really. It's never ending job security! She talked about doing the traveling deal but the time apart would be rough and she said she'd have a hard time with that. Definitely holding on to this one though. She has her head on straight and also likes to buy parts for her 4runner so telling her the stuff I buy for my truck is much easier haha. But like you said, I can't wait for her to be done to get the road on the show.:amen:

    Yeah been eating a lot of that popcorn lately lol her degree can’t come fast enough haha still working on getting her more accustomed to the mod budgeting lol she’s a true penny pincher which is good and also not good for the mod bucket list. Hope it works out for ya though man! Can’t ever have enough trustworthy 4x4 shops around. Hard to come by

    Edit: Personally never been a fan of using straps with those hooks, rather use a closed shackle. Less risk of breaking or simply falling off. Thoughts?

    OMG, the busted truck’s owner checked in, told the real story, someone called bullshit, things were said, thread’s locked.
