There is A L W A Y S something else that pops up that we "need" and if not then there comes a time when we want this upgrade to now be that doohicky.
Can feel your excitement coming through your post.
Congrats!! Not ridden a M8 yet but soon, very soon.

Sincerely, THANK YOU for your service. Marines fooking rock!! ( not a veteran but BIG fan). Enjoy.

Thank you! I am super excited to get to riding it. And you're right, I'm already looking at more stuff to get. But the big stuff is bought and paid for.

Yup, still active. I'm getting promoted to E-8 this year and will be using the pay increase per month to make the payments. That way our quality of life doesn't change and we can still save money.

I got out after 8 years as an E6. Congratulations to you. That is really awesome!
