Hello to everyone, I just bought my 2008 Silver Fit. I am in the Air Force and stationed at Hurlburt Field on the Panhandle. Holla if there is are any local FIT owners, i heard of two that already have K swaps can I say I am envious much! I can't wait to start moding her out, BUT right now it is just hte all weather mats that are amazing.

 

welcome to the forum :-)

 

Welcome... Florida Fits > all. Lol...what do u have in mind for the fit? Named her yet? Lol..

 

AUhhh the name, no i haven 't named her yet hahaha, i have to drive her for a bit to test her out, i haven't even named my motorcycle yet i bet it feels so unloved hahaha

are you born and raised in Miami?

 

Yep.. Miami born and bred..lol..

 

i heard miami is a blast though, better then the panhandle!

 

where are you from originally? How long you been in the Air Force? I'm about to get out of the Navy. Military FTL ;/

Tip for first mod: get tint ASAP, especially in FL with its wacky winter weather...sometimes the sun is ridiculous.

 

Theres no place like miami...seriously..

 

I was born and raised in california. I have been in the Air Force going on 4 years now and can't believe it. What are you going to do when you get out?

YEAP YEAP...... tint is coming on in a week and a half yeahhhh!!!!! 15% just right

 

welcome to FF.net and Florida...

 

Yea welcome man i should have got out i stayed for another 4 to get college done and save some more money. I am going to get out in 2012 now. But i love my job here its a good place. When i get out i am going to the medical field probaly RN its a well paying job and they are needed every where in the world.

 

thank you!!!!

 

What is your job? Dude it is a tuff economy and so staying in was not the worst choice. where are you stationed at? I am trying to go OTS to make more money hoepfully that pans out but I can tell you I am getting burnt out on college and working full time as we speak lol

 

OTS = ? Officer training school? I would never want to be an officer. Too much paperwork/responsibility and yeah...not for me. I think I'm re-enlisting. If I do, I could have $15k next October, 10 of which I would throw into this car mwahah ;D

Only thing that's garbage about the navy is 6 month deployments. Turns me into a complete asshole. Every week we switch from having the 6-12 shifts, to the 12-6 shifts. 12 hours of watch per day plus chow time plus drills plus zero sleep. So disorienting it drives me insane. I've seen people fight hardcore on the last one.

 

Sweet that is what my husband is doing he is re-enlisting and gets like something close to 70K tax free nuts! and hse is going to drop a good amount into his honda SI.

I just like OTS because it is more money is the only reason I am doing it, all about the money hahaha and in the air force it is a way better life and you get treated much better too.

 

Welcome to fit Freak and FL.... hope you enjoy our warm weather all year round.. what bike do you have?

 

70k taxfree? What is he? A lieutenant? That's nuts. I definitely picked the wrong job. But then again, I don't do a whole lot besides clean the ship and stare at radars when underway...my bonus would be taxed and maybe $10,000....oh well lol I still have it better than like 40-50% of Americans even with my shitty pay!
