Just saying Hi

Is your home in Gary? We can help you find a decent outfit if we know your location.
How about your age; are you over 21, 22, 23?

 

Welcome Kozaturf!

This is a good forum, with a lot of experience on it. There's a lot of good info and suggestions.

There's also a lot of pure, unadulterated BS here, too, so "trust but verify", and take it all with a big bag-o-salt.

If nothing else it sharpens up your BS filter, which will not only help you find the right company for you, it will help you stay out of trouble on the road. Good luck!!
