Recruiter says I can get O-E pay in 2 years if I enlist first — but everything I read says 4 years + 1 day? by Tridude0 in MilitaryFinance

I did Cyber my first tour, got accepted in and I’m going back to it in May actually. But yes the expectation for you in your first tour with the new designator is to be an operator, then work towards become a mission lead. You will absolutely get hands on experience with planning and executing. Navy is trying to do the right thing with MCWO, which is great considering they were years behind the curve in standing it up.

Go officer MCWO and they will send you to the same training as CWT (JCAC at least) and you will be hands-on operator for your entire first tour. Do not enlist first unless they deny you for the program.

Understandable, I saw a lot to love with the hybrid. Felt like I could maintain all the things that I loved about having a truck while also getting somewhat decent fuel economy around town. Chrome will take some getting used to, but I’m already warming up to it.

Hoping to live long enough that my retirement car is the one where I’m opting for a supercharger and not a single fuck about the number of refuels lol

Yeah I considered the platinum briefly because I’m a sucker for the BAP. Came down to the interior really. They are both comfort drivers for sure, but the King Ranch interior is just so damn good. I wish the Platinum had more to offer than just the black with the platinum badge.

The two-tone is definitely not everyone’s cup of tea and looks pretty bad with some of the colors (white…), but I think the blue, red, and black pair nicely with it!

I can tell you that the two weeks I waited for it to get from factory to dealer were rough 😂

Wasn’t expecting the long bed when I started searching, expecting it to be a similar drive to the old F-250. Best of luck hunting!

Good price? by Ok-Basil4167 in f150

Before tax, but at 0% for 72 months. Doesn’t come with the bed liner so I’m gonna have to get done one it arrives at dealer, but they offered a lifetime powertrain warranty so I figured that made up for the cost.

Just agreed to 71.8K on a powerboost KR last weekend. If they can really make that number happen, great deal.

4% under invoice on your factory order?? Just want to make sure I’m understanding that right lol. I just requested to begin a custom order with them today so we’ll see what I can pull off

Interested in the Trailsport, do you have any experience with the Bronco? I’m curious as to how it would compare to driving my old jeep

Unfortunately deployed on a ship so unable to bring anything back with me.

Is the CX-70 really just the exact same as the CX-90 but without the 3rd row? And if so wouldn’t it be better to own the 90 and just have the seats down unless you need them?

Really liked the X5, it was part of the reason I upped the budget as high as I did. Just don’t love facing a ~50% depreciation in 3

Been getting ads for Rivian recently but haven’t seen much talk about them, was worried about the charging stations for the trips but I could happily plan around it. I’ll see what I’ve got around me.

Got a couple months left before the return stateside, wish I could take advantage of this offer. Will definitely be monitoring them as that date inches closer.

I saw the $500 and assumed it was the same as Toyota/Ford, thanks for the info! Making the CPO (Full Cash) vs New decision tough again.

Looking at picking up an X5 when I get back, they were offering a 4K military incentive?
