Thanks guys I'm really leaning toward the myrtle beach area, just waiting on their official offer. I think it'd be a better option financially too. I can get a nice mobile/modular on an acre or so for well under 100k there vs 250k for an equivalent house in Las Vegas. As cheap as housing is I'd be able to pay something nice off in MB in 5-10 years and have enough room to build a 40x60 or so dream garage. Land in Vegas is insane, 500k minimum for a nice plot and thats without a house

So, I've got two job offers on the table and I'm having a tough time deciding between the two. I'm extremely unhappy with my current position and I'm also underpayed based upon national averages (Application Developer) Option A) Sr. Unix Administrator in Nevada, I know the hiring managers and have helped lined up a few other resources already (friends also). So there is a relationship that has already been built with those people and I know that we all work very well together. Option B) "Advisor" for an Application Support team. This is very close to what I do now minus the development side of things. The benefits of this option is the fact that it is 100% remote, so much so that they are closing the physical offices in most locations, I would also be able to move south (Myrtle Beach area) near my parents who retired there a few years back (they're also kind of freaking out about Option A) I'm having a hell of a time deciding on this, Option A would definitely be fun and they're already talking of lining me up for more of a management role which would get me to the path I am working towards and it would also be more in line with what I want to do functionally (more infrastructure, OS level stuff). Both of the jobs would be more than enough of a pay increase to relocate for. Any advice?

That's pretty much what I'm thinking, I've just never seen increases this large before, they've usually all been in $500-$1000 increments, one of them was increased by $3,500. The other factor I think is going the be the two loans I've opened up within the last 2 years (auto and a motorcycle loan) I'm at 31% DTI wise including my current mortgage. Trying to avoid living in an apartment again if I can.

Anyone have any thoughts on credit limit increases? In the last 8-12 months or so I've had limit increases on 4 of 6 of my cards. It's taken me from about ~24% utilization to about ~12% so I know long term it'll be good. I am thinking short term however, will it negatively impact my scores? I'm moving to Nevada relatively soon (1-2 months probably) and assuming my relocation reimbursement comes through quickly I'll have enough in the bank to put a down payment on a house out there. My concern is if the limit increases will negatively affect my scores or not (all 3 of which are in the high 700's)

Bump, any interest?

GoPro is sold.

Sorry, I failed. Ford bag is gone also.

Bump, everything except for the dollies are still available. Any takers on the GoPro? Willing to wheel and deal, need to clean house as I'm going to be accepting a job out west fairly soon.

I'm going to be moving west for a job in the very near future so I am trying to downsize as much as possible here.

I'm willing to separate if there is enough interest, I need to move this stuff fairly quick. $300 obo.

Sale pending on the bag, will let you know if it falls through

I just got my mustang put back together and fired it up (after throwing a set of long tubes on it) It threw a bunch of codes, including O2 sensor stuck lean on both bank 1 and bank 2 (rear sensors are disabled and I've set the O2 transport delays to where they *should* be accommodate for the headers) and both of the rear O2's have been disabled. The O2 voltages are oscillating but the fuel trims are acting nuts, off around 10% while logging. The other few codes are related to battery voltage and CAN bus/ECM issues. P2195 O2 Sensor Signal Stuck Lean bank1 sensor 1 P2197 O2 Sensor Signal Stuck Lean bank2 sensor 1 U2011 CAN bus fault U1900 Communication error with PCM B1318 Battery low voltage The battery has been sitting for a while, autozone tested it and said it was at 84% and told me I need a new battery, they also tested the alternator and said it was showing bad diodes. Does anyone know if their hand held machine is accurate in this department? I cleared the codes and drove it around for a bit but probably not long enough for them to trigger again if they are indeed legitimate. After it cools down I'm going to go ahead and check for exhaust leaks (nothing audible however) what is the best way to go about doing this? I've seen a few people using a shop vac blowing into each tail pipe and soapy water, is there a better method? Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks for the info guys, looks like buying that magnum tremec would cost me pretty close to what it'd cost me to buy/rebuild a used 6060 + necessary parts for the swap

Looking for a tremec TR6060, manual pedal assembly for an 05-10' mustang gt, and an 05-10 GT500 drive shaft anyone?

No, but it was close. I pulled it up in the driveway and it did it again (not even close to the steering lock). It wasn't scrubbing (chirping like it was dragging) the tires it just felt like it lost power until I came to a complete stop and straightened it out. I've read it could be the "encoder motor" on the transfer case, anyone know if I can simply disconnect/pull it off and still drive it to test that theory? I'm a complete noob when it comes to AWD, all the vehicles I've ever worked on were 2wd

Bought it, tried it, got bored with it after 30 minutes of playing. It's a giant rag doll simulator involving a goat terrorizing shit. Entertaining time waster but not sure it's worth the $7 on sale price

That is who I was looking for, thank you sir.

Having an issue with my 06' Saab 9-7X (5.3L AWD trailblazer platform?) I went to grab groceries and everything was fine until i was turning around in the culdesac in my neighborhood. I had the AC on and the radio going, at first I thought it was stalling but it's not wanting to move in turns, almost like its trying to drag the front or back wheels (i honestly couldn't determine which) My buddy Eric suggested changing the transfer case fluid, does anyone else have any suggestions? Also does anyone know the member here that works at/owns that shop on harrisburg pike? I may tow it over there and have them look at it. P.S. It's not throwing any dash lights, no drive train light, no check engine light, nothing.
