Pay kinda sucks, but I work with a killer group of people... AND it's only 9 miles from my house (I usually travel closer to 50 miles one way for work).

I'm considered a data analyst by title but my job is more IT & DB related... I integrate building controls systems into our gateway software to collect raw data points, then set up calculations needed and spit out building utility data by mapping it to big touchscreen kiosks at client locations (lots of Colleges, k-12 Schools and Corporations use the stuff) . Previously, I was an Operations Engineer (Linux/Solaris/Oracle/Cisco/Juniper stuff) for Vonage.

sounds really complicated lol

WOW!!! That interior looks awesome!! and I can't believe how solid that tailgate is. They always seem to be the first things to rot away.

Awesome Purchase!!

It's not rocket science... but it takes a bit to get your head wrapped around it. There are only a couple companies that do what we do and it's a fairly new market area.

Thanks, It's clean, but needs work. I'm buying the last 2 dash pieces I need this week off eBay, then I need to fix both buckets for good (bolts on the outside keep working loose and the passenger side doesn't slide forward to let people get in the back. Also the passenger side seat belt is locked all the way in (just happened last week) and the buckle it connects to was chewed up by the PO's dog.

Not yet, I'm trying to decide how elaborate I want to go... I might hardwire a cheap mp3 player like this video

also waiting for a new tan dash panel to come in from eBay... I'm removing the factory cassette I just put in in favor of a storage pocket.

Got the last tan dash piece I needed.... here is the current dash shot.

(I will end up replacing the piece under the steering column at some point. My OCD isn't liking the random placed and sized holes drilled in it by the previous owner.

I've been surf shopping tires 1/2 the day... after going from the M/T to H/T AND dealing with a few inches of snow, I think I want to go with a new set of M/T insteadof the Falken Wildpeak A/T. I'm kinda thinking another set of Definity Dakota M/T or possibly some Hercules Trail Digger M/T or Cooper Discoverer STT (all 3 made by Cooper). I'm gonna call my local tire guy tomorrow for some prices.
