DEAR GAWD.....
I want 5 minutes of my life back...
avery...dude you remind me a bit much of myself back when I was in school just a few years back, stiring up the pot and checking out the madness and adding more to it multiple times a day...seem's ck5 is a big part of your life as well as your truck /hobby and how it relates to this board.
Anyways, stop and think about what you would be doing if you were not on ck5 or wrenching. I missed out on alot of other things when i was in school because my truck and everything that was connected to it consumed me....now I wish i had of done a few things differently, hell the truck that I was consumed with aint even around now..I missed out on some serious family time, now the parents are devorced, sisters have kids, and I have to try or go out of my way just to see em sometimes! There are two people on here that come to mind when I think of people that seem realistic in their hobby/life Matt and harley here in az, matt worked though school, wheeled one truck, and got his degree...his truck did not change overnight, but he sure as hell has got to do more wheeling then myself because of his priorities, now the truck is a beast!...then there is harley, same story....went after it with school, while working and seemed his k5 didnt consume him as well...also wheeled alot. and with the same truck in the time that I went though 5 trucks, alot of useless wrenching ect.. Also I saw your site...pretty nifty, but easy to notice how truck crazy you are, but nothing about your family. ALOT of senior members here are family guys, are older and have the ability to make the truck part of their life..not thier whole passion/craze/drive maybe that is why you clash so bad when you try to push an arguement or point...they have been their done that and have a different value on their truck and this website..based on their priorities.
anyways, its just the interenet, its the trucks/ hobby that brought us here...it really is not that important and really not worth an argument..I bet in person you might even be cool....on here though you pushing to strong in some threads.
you may win the battle..but you will loose the war
ok, I am just rambling now...good luck, just sharing what I learned the hard way, and yes my spelling is off the wall too..
