    Nope. I haven't ran into a situation needing more than three wheel drive, and now I'm on big tars. If I'm serious enough for the front locker, I'm serious enough for SAS.

    Couldn't remember if you had 2 or 3 pedals. WIth your slushbox you don't need to worry about that coupler Marlin won't be making for the 6spds any time soon. You could grab a box from them and be good to go.

    Thinking about getting out of this profession...
    Pay is a 5/10, stress is an 11/10.
    If I didn't love it so much I'd hate it with a fiery purple passion.

    I need a vacation. Can't even remember what gears I want anymore. 4.88's sound good but with the crawl box I think 4.56 will be decent gearing for the highway since I won't be gearing down for the trail so much. And I do DD it still. 4.88's would be nice with 37's though so I may just suck it up until I can get the RCLT in. I'll math later...

    Edit: spelling

    Ya I’m lazy and couldn’t find a MT I’d love to have one but I got no complaints.

    If your under 31 you can get into the FAA from what’s called off the street hire they’ll send you to OKC for training. While your there you can draw on your GI bill then once you get to your facility your in training again and can restart it. It really helps out as a trainee cause the starting pay isn’t very much but once checked out goes up quite nicely.

    Also just found out yesterday the rotary program at CNW is getting shut down no idea why though.

    33 next month :/
    day late and a dollar short, such is life.

    I am pretty certain I know why, but I don't know if I can or shouldn't say.

    I wouldn’t
    I believe for newbies about 4-6 months. Teach you from day 1. Like the sectors of a traffic pattern are and the flips.

    Close but pretty damn good hardest part is remembering who’s who when they are coming to the same spot at converging speeds of 100mph each and there is 8-15 of them little fawkers going uhhh durrrrrr hhhuhhh say again cause they are brand new. Throw in some fast moving jets it can be hairy.
