    No Idea. Have some apps out for Senior L2 support positions. Nothing solid yet. I make too much $$$ where I am at now, and the other shops locally do not want to come close to what I make now. They also want some of the back end engineering (SCCM, packaging and scripting) of which I have none of that. At Cap 1, it was very silo'd, so I had no chance to get any of that experience.

    I have a great severance package coming, but want to keep working and bank the severance.

    I have an appointment with Employment Dept Friday. I am thinking about going back to school for Sys Admin, or InfoSec, but have to have a full time job to do that.

    No clock spring recall on my truck. My service guy said it could need a 0 point calibration? Never had that done before

    I kinda hate having it. I can't disable it unless the cel is on, then the computer disables it. It's nice in the slop or snow. It's like a simulated limited slip for the front. Sometimes I just wanna whip Brodie's but it won't let me.

    Traction control on earlier models was a somewhat rare inclusion. I don't have anything either, whereas another guy I wheeled with had same year as me and had VSC, DAC, and bought in the same area

    I live in Portland and have done it. My one piece of advice is to wait until summer. There is a bunch of moisture in the air right now. I think people are having fogging issues sometimes because of relative humidity. If you seal it when the air is dry I think you'd have better results. That's my theory anyways. If you really want to do it now PM me and I might be able to lend a hand. I did it in the summer and no fogging at all.
