JKG, I was at Little Rock for about ten and a half years. What do you do?

We don't get more money, as a service. We just get sent to more locations with higher per diem, and such. Now, overall QOL benefits, yeah... Air Force unabashedly has the rest of the services beat in that market.

School : University of Calgary
Major : Engineering - Mechanical
Mods : Stereo, speakers, sub. Custom higher off-road intake, DMH cutout, 6.1 valve springs, few other odds and ends.

I've always paid for repairs, etc on my truck (Dropped $9500 cash I'd saved since I was 14 for the truck). The worst issue with school has been not having time to work on my truck with homework and distance to my shop. I try to set aside money specifically for repairs so I know I won't be screwed if something pops up.

Well I'm not in college anymore, graduated a few years back in 07'. I can understand modding on a budget though. I drove this through college. It's obviously not the coolest car ever. I used to catch a lot of $hit from people when I told them I drove a tricked out saturn, but it was a lot of fun to drive/own. and yes paid for all of it...including the college education by myself.

All through school i had my eye on out for a RAM. always looked a 2nd gen trucks mostly. Had always wanted one since the movie twister came out. Then once I graduated...I started really looking for the exact truck I wanted. Graduated w/ a degree in business mgmt. landed a good job. bought me a RAM.

I won't lie that Saturn looks pretty sick. Not my cup of tea but it's BA nonetheless
