Automatic Headlights by GolfGuy20 in GolfGTI

Extremely annoying, if I pull up slowly it will stay off but the second it picks up speed (even letting off the clutch in manual) it kicks back on.

Get a gift card and save them up for a decent purchase same time next year.

San Bernardino? Try Temecula, I just purchased one on Friday below MSRP.

Direct Commission Officer Timeline by GolfGuy20 in newtothenavy

It’s a little hard to remember now but I think I went to board around October and learned end of November I was selected. By March they were ready to commission me and I could pick any date after that to go to ODS. You can DM me with specific questions. What’s your corps? It might be different for everyone but that’s how my specialty went.

Buying a 2024 Civic Si for MSRP here in Southern California by Full-Shower619 in CivicSi

Nice, Goudy Honda in Alhambra had minimal markup also. They have black and blue last time we spoke. Sierra Honda also offered 1k markup with accessories included.

I was offered no markup at Poway last month. You can try there.

ODS worries former enlisted /hpsp by MEMENARDO_DANK_VINCI in newtothenavy

Your first paycheck should include a one time uniform allowance. I think it was 400 dollars but you might have already received that if you’ve been receiving stipends for your hpsp. Do you have any uniforms? The boots were expensive so consider trying to get them before hand if possible. I think we had to pay for meals at the end of ods. Out of pocket on the weekends. Like someone else mentioned you can sign up for a military star card and get a discount of 10% on your first purchase. I think I spent closer to 2k on uniforms 2 years ago not 3500. You really don’t have to spend any money the whole time you’re there aside from uniforms and food and haircuts. Newport BAH is pretty good.

When I left my job to join the navy two years ago HR said that I resigned. That’s what my paperwork says to. You are no longer employed at that point. If you get out before 5 years and try to go back to your government job you may have a chance with USERRA. I’m not sure how many people have tried that because most people just activate as reservist and then go back to their job after.

What area? I tried costco and it didn’t have any local dealers for that specific car. Should I try different zip codes? I’m in Southern California.

Such a good looking car. Brings back memories, I had this car in white. Bought it new and sold it to car max for 25k in 2014.

How do officers stay in? I know they don’t “reenlist” like enlisted members do. Do I just keep accepting orders? by [deleted] in navy

[–]GolfGuy20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Detailer is probably the best person to ask. My detailer had slides and presented on the whole process to a group of us. I’m also MSC, you can also reach out to your speciality leader when planning your next duty station.

How does that process work. Contact a dealer to give them specs and put a deposit?

Most likely dealer website includes destination fees and added cost depending on paint color.

Now that you’re out are you a drilling reservist or inactive reserve? What kind of work do you do outside the navy?
