  • So much fun, good memories with the offroad group I fell in with during the Forum era of the internet, some of us still keep in touch.

    The group had people from around the US, and even though I lived in a place like you are now there were opportunities for road trips to meet up with & go with waaaay more experienced people.

    I was NOT mechanically inclined but made Incredible meals camping (sushi, smoked pulled pork, bbq tri tip beef, etc.) so I traded that for help installing mods & fixing broken shit.

    The group also went to the national meet up, but we never went on “official” runs, just went on our own and to make shenanigans & meet up.

    Check out (your vehicle) 4x4 groups and start there!


  • Look at the long term benefits/advancement and opportunities in the career field.

    As a personal account, my first position out of college there were McDonald’s employees making more than me, however 3 years there and that was the last time I worked as an hourly employee and moved up to management, also the company I worked for was very prestigious so the opportunities to move and work overseas was available.

    Granted, the 3 years was a goddamn grind…





  • Hell yeah, bought a Firebird off a friend, the tail lights lit up to say:

    FIRE BIRD

    with custom JUDAS PRIEST carved into the center console.

    last two years I owned it I never changed the oil, just kept adding more, the exhaust would sometimes come through the back speakers, and the driver side door latch would fail sometimes and swing open on right hand turns.

    …best car ever
