    I currently have two years left on my enlistment with the military. im looking at getting out and moving on with my with life and moving my family out of the cities and back to living in more of a rural setting like before i joined the service. i currently live in Virginia. i was looking Midwest i also have looked at Tennessee but the places my wife wants to live would never be able to park a truck. any ideas or advice from you experienced guys would be appreciated.

    Thanks for your time and what you guys do! enjoy the holiday.

    you really just need to decide where you want to live
    there is always somewhere to park a truck
    if you go OTR where she wants to live is even more important

    personally next stop for me will be Green Bay WI
    half the cost of living of the NJ shore
    even there I made a deal with the off track betting place to park the truck
