Thanks for some insightful input. I'm thinking the same thing as all of you. And Lance I would def. miss some of the benefits I get with my current job.

Dealership? 100% SALES, STRESS, you don't need that man. YOU can only work 40 hours a week, you don't work weekends, and at this point, its easy to take for granted. When you lose that, you'll 4ever regret it.

Hang in there buddy, and it'll definitely pay off. The ONE recommendation I might give you, is IF you're considering working at a dealership, try it PART TIME, and if you've got a knack for it, then go for it, if not, you've tried it out slowly but aren't too far in over your head.
Yea, I've been there and I DO NOT wanna go back. Be happy where you are, they will lure you in with the thought of money, and although it may happen once or twice, its never for sure, and they have really high turnover. Plus the fact that your almost always dormant is THE worst thing for me. I hate being active with work, it makes me have to do that much more to be where I wanna be :/

definitely scary, but atleast nice that your pa was there to fully inspect it. The scariest thing ever was when i purchased my 06 from Alabama without even looking at it. Had it shipped up here to MN which was the first time every seeing my purchase!

keep us updated today bud! Also what time you thinkin 2morrow? I should be able to get out of the office by 4ish.

Go snorkeling, it's not cool, but cheaper and still kind of cool. Caitlin and saw a really sweet shop wreck in the clear waters of Aruba. That was worth the $.
