I laughed to the 1st time I saw that it had a 3 cyl engine. But at 40MPG (and that's burning oil), it has really saved me some dough. And a fillup is only $16. Yeah, I stopped laughing too. I usually go to the pumps and see some dude in his Suburban looking over at me. When I leave, I yell "dammit, $16. We've got to do something about the price of gas!"

Default Metro!!!

Yeah, Know what ya mean. I stepped down from a supervisory position with the railroad and now have 2 babies and a wife. I make about the same with much less headaches and more free time. However, now I dont have a co truck with a gas card. Miss that!! I picked up a 96 accord 5 spd last week for commuting. Cut my 200 a month gas down to about 99 a month from the truck I had which was shot and my brother traded me a loaded LT-1 97 camaro staright up for the truck with 18x10.5 inch z-06 style wheels. Another toy paid for. I can use up the accord and not regret wearing it out like I would My z or mustang. It would be cool to daily drive a 500-600 horse Ls7 Camaro, but facts are I have other responsibilities at the moment.
Currently do track inspections for an east coast rail line. Business is booming in this industry with an 80% retirement rate of the current workforce in the next 5 yrs. Opportunity is wide OPEN.

Default Suga Mama

I just started my PT project, and I already see big $$$ exiting my wallet at an alarming rate.
So, I found myself a suga-mama! er... I meant to say... I should have found myself a suga-mama....

I have 4 kids, a soon-to-be new wife, and an ex-wife, so my paycheck is stretched paper thin. By day I work as a network admin for a school district. Working for a municipality has it's trade off's - put kindly, the pay is not very good, but the upside is - I usually get to have lunch with at least one of my kids once or twice a week. Also, in Vermont we have a motto - Moonlight or starve. So by night, beside selling anything not bolted down on ebay, I sell tee-shirts, and I buy/sell fixer-upper apartments and houses. And on weekends I've been known to work for a landscaper friend or for my younger brother's painting company. But, my favorite side gig is - designing and fabricating a couple of custom items for motorcycles.

No, I don't sleep. I figure I'll have plenty of time to sleep when I'm on the wrong side of the grass.
