South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I swear....the day after I order my FN wheels..... But the downside I would have to run spacers to get the offset I need. Yes I know people run spacers with no issues, I just see spacers as another fail point.

 

I run spacers and daily drive mine 400 miles a week. @ahspurlock has spacers and wheels harder than almost anyone else here. To each their own though.

 

I also run spacers and drive 400-500mi a week. No issues ever.

 

I’m Pro Spacer!

 

I’ve run spacers for probably 8 yrs now , I beat mine through the woods regularly

 

Colleges are a crock of shit. It’s a big business don’t let them fool you. All about making money not helping you with a job. Here’s your degree good luck.

Never let your kids go to Florida State. Bunch of Criminoles down there

Plenty of need for helicopter pilots in the Army. I hear a black hawk taking off now.

Air Force helicopter pilots are few but they are bad ass cause they fly the PJ’s around.

 

I like my spacers but I never go wheeling with them.

 

My uncle retired as a USMC colonel. Used to fly Marine One. That would have been a badass job for sure. He retired and contracted to work on the MRAP project. Not sure what he does these days.

 

Under which presidency? That's pretty cool takes some special men to get to that point.

 

To you and the other great guys on here that sacrifice their time and energy to help give so many young men a lifelong experience I just want to say thank you !!! I am older than most of you guys on here but have never forgot what an amazing time I had in Boy Scouts and the life long lessons I have from it.
I was very lucky to have ran into my scout master 20 years after I was out of scouting and was able to say thank you to him for all he did. I asked him if he ever had a chance to sleep during all those campouts and he told me he never slept for over an hour at a time.
He would get up and walk around to check on us kids because for alot of them it was their first night ever away from home and sometimes find some kids up crying and scared. He went so far above and beyond for all of us !! Also to the scoutmasters wives that do all the behind the scenes paperwork and all the other details I want to thank them.
He told me he never forgot any of us kids and I said none of us have ever forgotten him.
It sucks we have to get so much older to realize how much you all have gave or continue to give. You guys really do make a difference in lives so thank you to each and everyone of you. Mr Doug Lloyd is camping with the Lord now and I hope he is finally getting the sleep he so deserves !!

 

This is awesome, thank you!

Yes, it is a huge responsibility with other peoples kids on campouts, etc.

The other aspect I sometimes take for granted is the “little” interactions I have Scouts. I helped a kid with something very minor (proper care and use of a knife), when he was only 8 years old. Unbeknown to me- this opened a whole new world for this Scout, now 16 years old. He went to a “Mountain Man” scout camp- and forged his own knife.

During his Eagle Scout court of honor- just last year, he awarded me a “Mentor” pin- for that interaction. I had no idea he even remembered the knife lesson!

These types of things- helping youth- is what I like doing. However, I do not like the mega changes in Scouts, and the negative perceived changes to individual Scouts.

 

I hope I am saying this right, cause I'll probably get an earful if I'm not, but he flew in HMX-1 during the Reagan administration, and commanded HMH-362 in Kuwait during the H W Bush administration and the first Gulf War.

 

Isn't it funny how something that wasn't a big deal to you made such a big impact on someone's life ? Total respect to you my friend ! Need more people like you and other leaders like you to make life better for all of us. Thank you to all you guys that give.

 

He's right you know we never forget and still keep in contact. We are just as proud of yall. You taught us as much as we taught you.

 

Nice. I have no clue what choppers do what role.

 

Military aviation is a longtime interest of mine.

I know this is a long shot but with anybody happen to have a inky six lug five spoke silver rim that came with the first gen tacomas. I'm looking for one more

 

You talking about the Enkei Ivan Stewart’s?

 

They are similar to those but they are not a deep mount like that. I'm still trying to figure out how to post a picture on here so I can show the rims

 

These are the rims except I have plasti dipped mine black
