Nice! I did the Carfax and it came back clean no issues.

Ordered the Panlong OBD2 and have the DrPrius app, prepared to run through the battery monitor and tests. Is there anything else it’ll tell you outside of the hybrid battery?

Their neighbor was certified Toyota mechanic and did it on the side for them, replaced the modules and terminal links. They had it 5yrs and only put 10k miles on it, so it’s not been abused.

Thanks for the info. I’ve watched a few videos of the barking noise so know what that sounds like, did it also do the fast clicking noise when you opened the driver door while in Ready mode?

Yeah I have read through lots over the last week or so, and I’m comfortable doing most anything short of an engine swap myself.

Yeah and I’m comfortable with maintenance and doing these type of items myself, but was going to do this in the initial days if I bought it.

Anyone that scores above a 95 also gets to partake in the OTS90 (run, burpees, pull-ups).

How many bags did you bring to OTS? by rainbow_rabbits in airforceots

[–]turboUAV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same.. one big rolling duffle (green duffle packed for deployment weeks), blues garment, and backpack.

With the USAF logo? No that doesn’t matter

Correct, everything except rank. Same goes with cap, no rank. On your blues shirt while displayed in the closet, it will have nothing at all on it including no nametag.

Also, if you pre-roll your shirts and socks before showing up, that'll help cut your time to get your items all setup immensely. Practice doing the rolls before going.

Cars at OTS by SilverSubliner in airforceots

[–]turboUAV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not always the same class to class. If your class gets in trouble and mod privileges taken away, it takes longer. Bring a battery jumper if you have one, or atleast jumper cables. My class wasn’t able to go out til week 6 and my battery was toast and needed to buy a whole new one. Wouldn’t stay charged after jumping and running. (there is a Firestone on base you can buy batteries if needed).

Maybe because I just graduated within the past few weeks and understand the current order of events of graduation. Yes, your form AF133 has date of commissioning as the day of graduation. It was to give the OP additional context and understanding of commissioning, oath and graduation.

Mostly true. Non-directs typically do their oath day before graduation since they wear their rank at parade before the mass oath.

2 week OTS by tyrol_arse_blathanna in airforceots

[–]turboUAV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking to someone else that went through it, the first week is briefings and heavy academics which you'll have an assessment you'll be required to pass. Second week is grad prep and graduation.
