Default Hi

Hi everyone! My name is Joe. I am 20 years old and live in Eastern Germany. My occupation is an A-10 (fighter jet) crew chief for the US Air Force. I bought a brand new 04 SRT-4 about 4 months ago. Right now I am currently deployed to Afghanistan. I was able to drive my car for slightly over a month before I left. My wifer was driving it while her car was in the ahop getting a custom stereo job. But, now it is just sitting collecting snow. I have asked my wife to drive it but she says she doesnt like to because it has to much power. But, I guess the point to this long *** post is to say hi...and find out what kind of mods I should start with when I decide to start. Thanx...Joe

Welcome to DF Joe! Glad to have another SRT-4 owner on here. I take it your refering to the A-10 Thunderbolt II / Warthog, the greatest ground attacking, tank destroyer around.

Welcome to DF!! I was in the Air Force for 21 years (spent time at Hahn Air Base) before retiring as a Master Sergeant. You'll find lots of info on the SRT-4 here!

Thanx for being so welcoming all. I will be home in a little bit longer than three weeks, Amanda. Gump, are you stationed in Europe? RoadRunner, yess you would be right the thunderbolt II/ Warthog and i couldn't agree with you more about it being the best. There is nothing else that can do what it does as effectivly as it does it. Peace...Joe

I'm glad you aren't going to be away from home too much longer. It's got to be hard for Xmas... your wife (and kids?) must miss you terribly... and you KNOW that SRT-4 is screaming for you to drive her. LOL! Stay safe!!

Welcome, Joe. It must be hard to not only leave your family, but a new SRT-4 to boot! Glad you're coming home soon. Thanks for serving your country.

God bless the US military!
