That thing on irocs would be sick...its crazy when I had those attitudes on my f150 they did great lol but I guess that clay wins everytime

I never wanted to be a mechanic lol I prefer keeping it as a hobby but the pay was right at the time and now its not

 

Yeah i guess when a hobby becomes work, its not so enjoyable anymore. Im waiting to get hired on the fire dept right now. I cant wait to start. I miss being in the academy every day. So much fun!

 

Best of luck to ya man. Im coming over this new years so Ill have to meet up with y'all.

 

Are you gona be in town for a few days? Im gona be driving back from my camping trip in north Carolina on new years day.

 

Ill be in New Port Ritchie for about 4 days. Caryn wants to visit her friends.

 

Oh okay. We deffently need to meet up.

 

Don't do it. I wish I would have did something else. Granted, I can get a job anywhere and I make decent pay since I'm a Diesel tech but I plan on getting out of the field as soon as I can. Its a dying trade and the pay has gone done for the past 5+ years..

 

Yep thats exactly why im leavin ^^

 

I think every trade is dying right now. I do heavy equipment operating for local government and we have been taking pay cuts and loss a lot of benefits along with no raise in 6 years. But I'm happy to be working and not unemployed.

 

This is true. Im a shop foreman/technician and its been slow but im on a salary unlike the other two guys.

 

Hi all Im new to this forum. I assume a good place to start is with locals. Im here in St.Pete. Id like to get out more than just going to redneck yacht club. Speaking of which is anyone going Oct ?

Thanks

 

Welcome to the forum! What do you mean is anyone going oct? Are you talking about jeeptoberfest? If so, i know im goin.

Also, has anyone heard about hardcore jeepers club closing down raulerson ranch? Apparently they have a deal with the owner to make it there private club spot. There gona put up gates and everything.

 

That sucks. Y'all only be left with Citrus at that point.

 

Well the good thing is im affiliated with them...my boss is good friends with mr raulerson...and they have no control over the temple terrace section of raulerson(this is where the trails and that sugar sand was drew) so we can always get in somehow....speaking of that I made a new hill climb to get in and someone moved all the trees out of the way!

 

We should all plan a ride for next month.
