I'll try to get some sleep so I won't be as tired, I'll take plenty of tunes to stay live lol. And some cheese crackers . But all in all I think this will be a great first time experience for me, my cousin asked me to visit him this summer, he's recovering from a leg wound from a mine explosion while he was in Afghanistan,, long live the USMC!
You should be fine if you are good on the maintenance. That is the biggest killer of cars, when people don't do the maintenance. And get a good nights sleep before you leave, actually for a few days before you leave, it makes a difference.

You tell your cousin, thank you, he is the reason, we can tell stupid stories, and hate each other for being in the wrong political party. He has made a sacrifice so that we are still free, and he is a good dude. And I'll buy him a beer if he is ever up this way, or me down that way. Girlfriend is Air Force, so I have a lot of respect for those guys, I wish I had gone in at 18, but I broke a toe right before MEPS, and the recruiter pissed me off
