    awesome build man! I ordered the same suspension setup as you. How much lift will I get with just the 5100s and 885x coils? I didnt order the top plate spacers. BTW im a huge fan of those wheels, looking to get those in the future!

    My parents were like that. Until I decided not to. Mainly because I had no idea what to go in to. I still to this day have no idea what I would go in to. So I just got a decent paying job and I'll be saving up for a while and putting a good bit into investing. Might hurt and be difficult at first, but if I invest in enough things, I won't have to work in 20-30 years.

    Well I want to have my own storage unit facility. Nothing big or fancy. Something with like 50 or so units. After that pays for itself, it's all profit. Say I charge like $50 average per unit. $50 x 50 x 12 equals $30,000 a year. I know you have to factor bills and such plus that's if every unit is rented. AND the biggest factor is the years waiting for it to pay for itself. But that probably wouldn't be my only investment.

    No, but I was down there last weekend. It's crazy. I couldn't imagine living without water for days, weeks, months. Who knows how long it will last. I would go live with someone with good water. lol. I'm surprised something in "WESTERN" Virginia made national news. That's like the first thing since the sago mine disaster. But I hope everyone with the water problem will be okay.

    Glad it didn't affect you and your family dude. Shame for those people though, I can't imagine.
    As for the few things in WV making the news, thats what happens when you live in a state with bassically no metropolitain cities. There aren't a whole lot of people in WV...not a bad thing at all ;)
