Totally off subject but if you are planning on boosting with the money you make from boot think again...
For E-1 with less than 4 months of service, basic pay is $1203.90..they will take out all kinds of stuff too.. GI bill is like 100.00 a month plus social security/taxes not to mention the stuff you need.. nothing is free lol..i forget how much the dress uniform is but i know its a couple hundred dollars just to get one in working order
I apologize if i shouldn't be posting this here but I don't want him relying on a paycheck that is never going to come
Another thing you need to consider is shipment, although the gov will pay for you to ship one vehicle each time you PCS they are really strict on shipment..i am not 100% on what your allowed to have and not have and still get them to pay for shipment.. a friend of mine had a neon that had a aftermarket spoiler.. just to get it shipped he had to go to the junk yard and swap trunks out
Right now im stationed overseas and had to buy the car in the states and have it shipped here... for a 07 si coupe without navi or summer tires they wanted 36,000.00 plus taxes etc... talk about robbery! lol so in short (after writing a book) my recommendation is wait until you have your assignment (even though you can always get defered..some people get to their new base and find out they have been defered) but you dont want to get it boosted then go some place you have no chance of getting it tuned or even looked at by anyone decent if something should go wrong.
Am i going to boost? You bet! My car should be here soon...only problem is there is only two car shops on the entire island that does that kind of work..and they are both owned by the same person so you can imagine what the prices look like
Once again I apologize for writing a book, and for typing out all this off topic stuff
If you have any question about bases or anything let me know!
