hey guys...its been a while since i have posted, and im sitting here realizing how much i miss my old TC...I ended up giving it to a friend before i left for england (im in the USAF) and now im sitting here trying to figure out what to do with my deployment money(im in iraq right now) and i think im going to get back into the TC world. I have seen a few 88's im interested in, i just have to see if my 1 year extension in england went through...if it did, then ill be back in the states soon to buy one!!!!!....
left right left...the perfect shift...maybe i should call cadience when i bang the gears....

Thank you for helping to protect all of us !

If you're putting away half the money I did when I was in the Navy on deployments you'll find a sweet ride when you get back :-)

Does the PX system still offer discounts on american made cars that you have to buy while you are over seas and take delivery when you return? I always wanted to get a Mustang 500 through the Siagon PX but never had the cash, as I remember pfc pay was about $72.50 a month.

Glad to hear you are safe and doing good. The worry can wear on a parent and I know since my son and daughter are both in the army. (Now I know how my parents felt while I was running with special forces).But they like you have learn that freedom feels and taste different when you have helped paid for it with your service in the armed forces. God speed and may you be here a day before the devil even knows your gone.

Yea, they do actuailly, you can also take delivery while you are over seas. The sell new cars at just about every base, and if they dont have what you want, you can order it. BMW also has a GREAT military sales program. I was lookin at the new 335ci, and with all the discounts i could get one for about 32,000...but on e-3 pay, that aint gonna work...

i make about 1500 a month being stationed over seas and about 2000 being here in iraq....not a big chunk of change, but FAR greater than 72.50.

I really want another TC, unless a 04 cobra comes allong...
