RE: just saying hello
I thought I would expand a little on my hello to the forum...
I spent 15 years in the Army, several of those years I was in light vehicle maintenance as the Battalion Motor NCOIC for my unit. After I got out, I went back to college, finished thankfully and received a degree in Business-Supply and Operations Management. Now I am pursuing my masters in Global Management at my own pace. And it's tough.
After leaving the Army, I worked for the government as a Logostics Coordinator(fleet maintenance) and most recently just got back from being the western accounts liason with GM's distribution center in Dubai UAE. That was 14 months worth of a good experience.
I now help as a business associate with a friend at his shop here in town. I also like to work on cars(thanks to my ASE certs), so I dont mind getting dirty.
I bought my Audi because I was impressed by them and saw a really good deal and jumped on it. Hopefully it won't let me down*.

(*by the way, i am replacing the starter on it tomorrow, seems the original one gave up finally...this might be a good time to look at a possible exhaust mod)
