That sounds reasonable and still a massive upgrade for drivers.

Add Raytheon to that list.
No offense but your friends sound stupid.
Best decision of my life!
Indeed. Hell my old Ranger had a gap in the bed liner so I could slide a 2x4 (I think I actually used a 2x6) in place and have a perfect divider for groceries right at the tailgate. It was simple and worked perfect. When it was time to do truck shit the board just lifted up and got tossed in with the bricks or whatever.
Mentally, yes. Financially, hell no. I was “essential” through the whole thing which certainly didn’t help my mental state. To be fair, I was in a bad place even without COVID.
It’s crazy when you realize this photo is of present day. Humanity has gotten nowhere in the past few decades.
Sounds like a win/win then.
Or just, a rag doll.
That’s a good point. Perhaps we were just ignorant to how bad everything was back then. I honestly don’t know.
I guess you’re being downvoted by young people that can’t relate. Back in the day it was big news if there was a shooting, and it generally only involved 2 people. People did indeed drive around with rifles on full display. Yet few people were ever shot. Maybe in Detroit or Chicago etc but for the vast majority of the country it was unheard of. Times have changed. Mental health has declined. Everybody is depressed, frustrated, overworked and underpaid. I think such things can lead to violence. People are straight up losing their shit in this country.
Man I feel this so much. Stay well good sir.
That would be my only concern. Like picking something up and have the price increase on my way to the register.
Add 90% humidity and you’d be experiencing Florida’s climate. I can’t understand why people keep coming here when the heat is only getting worse.
Who the hell would attempt this if they would be outting themselves in the process? Like, sorry you didn’t pass, say goodbye to your family!?
Works on Sync and it’s it’s hilarious!
Agreed, but until then there are virtual credit cards. Won’t let me cancel? Fine, my card just stopped existing.
Finally my tax dollars would be going to something positive!
I once was super dead set on sailing the Carribean. Planned for two years and finally bought a 34footer. Sold it within the same year. And I am still trying to dig myself out of that financial hole. I much prefer my RV.
I’m not arguing that this is a good deal or met whatever goal. I’m just saying it’s an upgrade. Also, as a former uber driver, there are strategies to make the best use of your time. If this new wage applied to my location I would buy a car and make a killing. That said, I’m in the minority that prefers to run their own business rather than be an employee so if I have to be a wage slave again then no thanks.
