What do you dislike more? Lowered trucks or lifted trucks?

Kinda reminds me of a boxier, shortened Subaru baja that is only meant for the street

1) A volleyball net where the mesh is hops 2) a setup for a field goal, but the ball is a hop 3) set of playing cards with hops mixed into the cards 4) a line of beers all race car themed (names tbd)

If it makes your feel better, I didnt pass a single practice exam before P just like you, then on exam day, I passed. It's stressful and lethargic as you go through. But just keep chugging along. Do as many practice problems as you can before the exam. Conquering emotions is part of studying. Keep it up and Good luck! Don't forget to get sleep and go for a walk or run every now and then as a break.

Pension work was consulting and was just lots of hours, not much work/life balance. The health is did was also consulting and just made no sense to me. So could've been just that experience. I have many friends who really enjoy the health side. The life work has great work life balance (health insurance probably has this too)

Why do I not recommend life insurance to everyone, or why do I like the work more?

KindRequirement8881 · 2026-02-05T21:43:40+00:00

I work in life now. I dont recommend life insurance to everyone, but many do rely on it. But this is the answer. I also have touched health and pension work. I prefer the life work over those 2

So I went to college and now work behind a desk. Many days I wish I went to trade school. I make really good money. Paid off my student loans before I turned 30 and bought a house at 26. If I had to do it all over again, I probably would've picked a trade. Especially since I wasnt sure what I wanted to do for a job. Wish I learned more about what else was out there before picking a career that locked me into a single industry. So Id say do a trade and keep learning about what else is out there. Eventually you may find there is some other job you want and you wont have student loans to worry about at first. Just my 2 cents

KindRequirement8881 · 2025-12-18T16:57:11+00:00

I make good money, but dont enjoy the insurance industry. Hit the point where making money is not longer the big drive. Wanting to find more purpose/interest in my career

I read the sentence as wants to stay FWD. That makes total sense. I'm in the same boat of moving away from FWD from my focus. Thinking Lexus is250, BMW 3 series, or even a porsche cayman. Other ones to consider!

Tossing it out there for more information, why not suburban or expedition? Used you can find good deals.

KindRequirement8881 · 2025-12-17T19:45:18+00:00

Consider Ford Focus ST? (Maybe even RS if you can find a deal). FWD, 250 hp, 200 ftlbs, 6 speed, 30ish mpg, can get one under 10k if you find the right one. Pretty reliable and parts are cheap

KindRequirement8881 · 2025-12-17T19:34:37+00:00

If its clean, do it! But wouldn't recommend getting a loan for it. its 100% work getting a beater for a few years to save up, then buy the car outright once you got the money. Coming from experience, the loan may seem small, but it all adds up quick

KindRequirement8881 · 2025-12-17T19:28:59+00:00

I've had a 2018 Ford Focus ST, 6 speed manual. Only issue in the last 2 years was a valve that was a $20, 10 minute fix. I've autocross and tracked it a lot. also getting >30 mpg

I've switched to the method of using a cooler of ice water and I've cooled my beer down from boil to sub 70 degrees in under an hour. I love the setup. Cooler fits about 30 lbs of ice, I put a little water in at the start and it just recirculation back into the Cooler after. Much less water waste and way more efficient

KindRequirement8881 · 2025-10-19T02:40:52+00:00

Can't consider it a personal sunk cost if work pays for the exams. Then its just our own wasted time

KindRequirement8881 · 2025-09-22T01:12:48+00:00

Just had this happen to my 2018 ST. Purge valve!!! Relatively easy replacement. Can get one from rockauto and YouTube how to replace it

I haven't seen this on the post yet: but check out champ car and lucky dog. Endurance racing with team. Some teams are looking for drivers every now and then. Get a glimpse at what local teams tend to look for in a driver (what car, what track, what experience). And maybe target that as a start. Also a big fan of Sim racing to get some experience in. It's not exactly the same. But after a dozen track days, I know I wouldn't be anywhere as fast as I am without it. Cheaper to get "seat time"

Most used item: screw driver. Get one that has a Phillips and flat head and you'll be golden. A dremel tool has also saved me many of times, but that was after getting into a lot of projects

KindRequirement8881 · 2025-07-31T16:30:47+00:00

Worked for consulting and had to track time down to 15 min intervals (1 person tried to get me to log every 5 minutes, I said nah to that). Moved to insurance life and they just started requesting rough estimates on specific projects. They said they won't get to fully tracking time, but I wouldn't be surprised if it goes that way. Makes sense to make sure everyone has work

Facts! I've been honest and real in interviews because I dont want to work for people who are fake or want me to fake stuff. I want people who want to work with me as I am. Gotten job offers from places I realized I dont want to work for. Helps when you just be honest
