    I've debated going for a helicopter or fixed wing license, especially now that i'm jobsearching... A friend of mine in college got his helicopter and it was crazy how much it cost per hour to get his hours in :eek:

    oh yea. Easily a 10k investment. or more. I wanted my pilots license sooooo bad as a kid. Still would like it. You can make good money as a helicopter pilot. Northwest in Powell has a program for pilots now..just saying..haha

    had a buddy do it. He was flying all the time.

    :notsure: I kinda barged in here with my header post and took over i guess...

    Just got back from pretending I had LT again... I'll post a video in a few. the road I found today will be a good measure of how much better the pelfrey kit is than what I have now, lots of goofy compression and extension scenarios under low and high speed. Took the video with one hand so don't expect much lol.

    It's really fun until you realize you don't... There's one spot in the vid where I almost didn't get it hauled down enough for a turn around a huge 15' deep wash :eek: haha took the vid while it was my first time down the road, little sketch haha

    well..then i wasn't realllyyy pretending to be LT..i had one hand to drive..haha im pretty certain had i been able to turn the wheel and down shift i would have been fine..scared..but fine and then slowed down..but..couldn't...


    and not too much either way. I mean..it made me broke and was sad yes. But it was also a great experience and a lot of good came out of it too.

    But i still look back on that..and think wow..my truck could be DONE right now with all the mods i wanted then if i hadn't rolled it..front LT, dual lockers, crawl box the RTT and rear bumper and front glass fender was all i had plans for at that point. could have done it pretty easily by now..haha

    Oh well. Frankenstein was born :cool: i like it
