what was the downfall of the tent?
weight up top. It wasnt terrible but it also put me in some precarious positions. If i didnt like to go fast, it wouldnt be an issue. Im growing to the 3.5 race kit now to have 3-4" more travel and 120lbs on the roof wont help anything.

Personally also got tired of not being able to move the vehicle once reaching my destination. There were times where i wanted to go quickly somewhere or take pics and couldnt move.

Had fun loading my snap on box onto this 20 foot long trailer. After 4 years at a dealership I got a hell of an offer to run a shop for a used car lot that’s been taking all the our business away.

Mostly poor management. But the strike put a hurting on us getting parts. Instead of next day it was next week or not at all. And the constant warranty time cuts really nailed the coffin shut. New job is 11 more an hour to do the same thing plus pay for my gas and 2 week paid vacation.

Good luck to you sir. Sounds like they offered in all the right places. This strike has killed my income the last few week's. I had an offer that i passed on a month or two before the strike. Really wish i didn't now. It was through Midas, so weekends were mandatory, but was hourly pay and employer paid healthcare. This mess with the General has me worried they are gonna get worse.

It just seems like a sinking ship right now. Getting screwed every way possible it seems. The guy I’ll be working for now blew my phone up about coming to work for him one night. Told him I’ll swing by after work and we can talk about it. Really glad I did. I don’t like riding my guarantee at all. And that’s what the next few weeks were looking like

Yeah. I was the only one with any gm training whatsoever. The other guy was from Nissan. So I did all the warranty work

Only took 2 God damn fucking months to get a set of wheels installed. Jesus christ.
Should probably update their date promised bullshit.
