    I'm well aware. Being auto cad and pro e user.
    A galaxy 33 is a much larger radio might not fit well in that area, Wish I could find a clean mount though.

    Yeah no on the roof.

    I'm half tempted to make it a detach face like guy on here did with his. Just don't wanna screw up an expensive radio.

    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    How is HSV? My buddy whos about to get out of the Air Force in Montana got offered a job at Boeing and wants to know. But I havent spent any time there. I told him it is probably one of the better choices in AL and has the most young ppl and tech jobs.

    I can go ahead and tell you that all the HSV guys are going to say it is the best place on Earth. But having been there once or twice myself, I would live there, and I would sure as shit work for Boeing. So. That's my $0.02, being that you asked.

    Well, I'm not going to say it's the best place ever. I'd rather have more land, more country, less people, but that's not an affordable option in huntsville. It's a great city though. Cost of living is good, and huntsville is one of the top growing cities in the country, not as far as people but technology and businesses too. Huntsville doesn't grow upwards and tightly packed like a certain city in Alabama *cough* but it grows outward with madison and other developments because it works around the arsenal. Great place to live.

    I have lived in HSV or within 30 mins of HSV my entire life. Its big enough and small enough for all my wants and needs. As stated above by my 2 brethren, its a great place to be and I would recommend it to anyone technology related

    I am in Huntsville all the time and I love it. I was going to move up there if I had found a job in that area. There is a lot to do but doesn't feel like a big city.

    Asked the wife about camping and she said "in the middle of summer?!" This will take some convincing or I'll have to go alone ha

    Having grown up there, I can highly recommend, especially if he's gonna work for Boeing. They're one of the top places to work in town, and that's saying something given the engineering firms in HSV. The city itself is great in my opinion. If you live just outside of town, it's quiet enough to enjoy, but the stuff actually in HSV or Madison is still stupid close by.

    I was worried as well. They loved it though. I'm very hot natured but actually got cold in the hammock at night. We have an outlet in the truck bed. Bring a fan. After we get our house in order we're going to try cheaha or little River canyon next.

    Cheaha is good in that you can have any "level" of camping you want pretty much.
