    Honestly, I have a friend that was at Schofield, and from what he has said, I'd pass on that. Fighting addicts for orange juice and the island surcharge doesnt seem appealing, to me.

    Yeah, I was attempting sarcasm in my post...obviously I failed (should have used the eyeroll emoji). I'd pass on Hawaii for other reasons too.

    No time soon, won’t be until mid 2023. But it’ll be somewhere within a 10 hour radius of Moab

    Look into AZ. Good jobs out there. Lots of contracts and lots of banks out there.

    Just stay away from Huachuca. If you dont like the job then you'll have to travel 2 hours min to go anywhere else. I turned down a spot at USAISEC because of the drive to Tucson

    right now, my son (2.5 yrs) thinks it's "funny" to come up to me and punch me in the balls because of my reaction... and he's sneaky


    soooooo true. we keep those weekends PACKED full of activities... girl scouts, t ball, park, playground, etc..... when they get bored, their behavior gets 100x worse.

    I'm at the age where I'm really able to appreciate the work my parents put in as parents to help me develop into a functional member of society, and I'm really thankful for that. (I'm 21 for context)

    I've met a decent amount of you and I'm sure you're doing great

    Good thing I don't really have kids. It should be illegal for me to have children.

    This is good because I'm literally still trying to figure out how to not kill him. Lol. The worst part is that I get my knowledge from watching @EatSleepTacos

    Very cool. Be prepared for horrible mileage. One of the guys on the range when I'm out at Redstone has one, and he says that he never gets better than 14-15 mpg.

    10 hr at what speed? That's important information.

    My Highlander gets 19 right now so not exactly great, so it won’t be much of a hit. And idk, normal highway speeds. Right now luke AFB is top of the list.

    Hey guys, I’m considering selling these Dakar elo95r with add a leaf (2 I believe) I bought from @ilubtimmyhos

    I was going to put them on but procrastinated and now I’ve got other stuff I’m working on and don’t feel like dropping any more money on the suspension. Anyone want to buy them? $300?

    This Silverado is about to move into money-pit status.
