    checking in from FT Hood by way of Afghanistan

    So far I've sourced 2 M1008s for sale. But I'm not going to hold up other buyers ether. I refuse to buy a vehicle sight unseen. That being said, I'm still in Afghanistan.

    checking in from FT Hood by way of Afghanistan

    Thank you Tony. Hood seems to have lots of personnel that have spent some time there. Personally, in my 8 years I have been stationed at camp eagle south Korea and Hood. I don't mind that though. You can do quite a bit there and never leave post. Plus it's not as crowded any more; it's down to...

    checking in from FT Hood by way of Afghanistan

    Unfortunately I can't share much information or advice on this issue. I don't have that much experience with the engines in these things. I have a good deal of knowledge on turbocharges and late model diesel fuel injection systems. Where I excel is motor blue printing and building. I've dabbled...

    checking in from FT Hood by way of Afghanistan

    No, I have never and will never pig hunt with a knife. I enjoy my life to much and have spent to much time already in hospitals due to my own stupidity and lack of sound judgment.

    I appreciate the positive comment on my son. It was a very rough road. He was born with cerebral palsy; more specifically spastic diplesia (sorry if I spelled that incorrectly). Before the operation, called a selective dorsal risotimey (again, I probably miss spelled that), it was extremely...

    I've never had a bad experience with Miami. It was Fort Sam Huston/Brook Army Medical Center that I have not so pleasant memories. But he is doing much better now and I thank god every day for allowing my son to have this surgery. I grew up in Volusia County, right between Daytona and Orlando 5...

    Miami, not that far from where I grew up. It's unfortunate that you have a Mustang! Just Joking around with you. That thing Looks Beastly! Ft Sam, I don't ever want to go back there. My middle son had to have neurosurgery there, not a memory I would like to recall. But San Antonio is such a...

    checking in from FT Hood by way of Afghanistan

    I guess this is how new members are treated, A moderator forum stalking? something as simple as a finite grammatical error, common in most internet forums, has begun to give me a bad taste.
