Gotta New Dream Job where I get to wheel
« on: Feb 14, 2006, 03:38:21 PM »
Just got a new job where I get to go wheelin and got the OK from the new Boss to talk about it. Last week I was offered the position of Lead Driver for the FJ Cruiser TrailTeam-WestCoast.
We will be going to Offroad events, and dealerships, and letting people wheel Toyota's latest offroad vehicle. I will post more information in the Trail Reports section as to where we will be going as soon as a schedule is set. So if any of you happen to be at one of the events or close to a dealership that we will be at, come on by and say Hi.
I'd like to THANK David Zartman, for recommeding me for the position, and Bill Burke, Allison Hegg, & Brady Clarke for giving me the chance to work for them.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

YOU SUCK!!!

Remember years ago when chevy had that commercial of that black dually flogging in the mud?  I always dreamed of that job!  Being able to beat the crap out of a new rig just trying to break it!  Or get paid to drive the pace car for NASCAR! 

That's cool, nothing like getting paid for PR work and with the new Toy!  You're going to have to report to us what's cool about the new rigs!
