    Today I really need to take the Ford to get titled so I can have a title when it comes time to sell. I put some used Michelin LTXs on it yesterday.

    Sometimes that's what it takes. A lot of the time it's who you know not what you know. I had to do a presentation for my interview at my company. In the "about me" section I had a picture of me with my truck. The first interviewer was in early and started asking me about it. The last guy shows up and sits down and after a minute asks "are you two don't talk about cars yet?". Made me real nervous as that was the sup I would report to. Turns out though, that's what got me the job, an engineer who can actually turn wrenches. Now, years later I'm shooting the first interviewers Lexus this weekend in prep of cars and bids auctions. Funny how things work out.

    You getting ink? My girls finishing up her sleeve this week, tempting me to take the plunge on my left arm. The buttes and bluffs of Utah on my inner forearm, thick forest of N Idaho on the back of my arm and jagged mountains wrapped around my bicep like those we've enjoyed in Wyoming and Montana.

    Yeah, pretty sure I'm gonna. Had a few ideas floating around for a while, found a couple artists I like and commissioned the art finally.

    totally, and as far as culture fit goes it sounds like the majority are into the outdoors in some way or another so that gives a lot to talk about :D


    especially after my interview saga where I've been told I did fine in the tech/skills/programming assessments but they just didn't like me lol

    What gear ratio do you need for the 8.4? I'm going to be putting a factory locker in my truck this summer and pulling an 8.4 with 456s

    Yeah, little college town right on the border of Idaho and Washington. Kinda the middle of nowhere but there's enough stuff around with Pullman and Lewiston within 45mins I guess. Lewiston is a nice place, thought about living on the WA side (Clarkston) before.

    It only pays about 50k so I’m hoping it’s not as trendy and expensive as Boise.

    It's not, it's pretty rural other than the colleges.
