  • So much fun, good memories with the offroad group I fell in with during the Forum era of the internet, some of us still keep in touch.

    The group had people from around the US, and even though I lived in a place like you are now there were opportunities for road trips to meet up with & go with waaaay more experienced people.

    I was NOT mechanically inclined but made Incredible meals camping (sushi, smoked pulled pork, bbq tri tip beef, etc.) so I traded that for help installing mods & fixing broken shit.

    The group also went to the national meet up, but we never went on “official” runs, just went on our own and to make shenanigans & meet up.

    Check out (your vehicle) 4x4 groups and start there!


  • Look at the long term benefits/advancement and opportunities in the career field.

    As a personal account, my first position out of college there were McDonald’s employees making more than me, however 3 years there and that was the last time I worked as an hourly employee and moved up to management, also the company I worked for was very prestigious so the opportunities to move and work overseas was available.

    Granted, the 3 years was a goddamn grind…
