    Is your financial aid really bad or something. I don't think I actually had any time where I struggled to pay for either really.

    I thought you might be gotten a bum aid deal or not enough to cover an expensive school. That can happen but it's becoming more uncommon

    I have to take loans out and they don’t cover all of my tuition, which is fine, I’d rather some myself right now.

    Then I pay food, fuel, housing. My parents like me enough to pay insurances/ vehicle payments

    Oh come on dude, you can't make excuses not to join us if you've got a year to plan.

    I used to live in Chicago for awhile, and one day we made the drive from there to Southern CA just to pick up our dog, and drive straight back, because we only had a "48 hour" window.

    What's funny is, somewhere along the I80, a state trooper clocked me at +95mph (I was on cruise control). I was a good long distance from him as he was coming the opposite way and so I thought I slowed the car down quick enough.

    Anyway, I had to step out of the vehicle, and explain the purpose of my trip. Mind you, I'm in Idaho or something, with Illinois registration/plates, and a CA driver's license. What's even worse is I left my badge at my place in Chicago.

    Trooper probably didn't believe me since he had me wait, go to the passenger window to question my wife at the time, only for her to tell the same story.

    Let me go without a ticket; I had told him I'm a marine that just got out of the military hence my CA license. Said his dad was a marine and "we take care of our own".

    I'm going to take my E Revo camping with me this Wednesday because of you.

    Haven't messed with it for a few months now...

    When I sold the Xray's, I cringed at remembering that I spent about $1k each...before battery, charger, transmitter, and tires/etc.

    Especially the AWD with a 9.5 turn motor and bigger pinion; zipped around the track stupid fast. So much power/torque it was easy to whip the car at a different angle to land any way you needed and jet off once it touched dirt.
