    You guys gotta have some way of paying for all the awesome stuff you do to your trucks like rims and suspension and motor swaps.. What do you do for a living?

    I'm just a kid, no job and still in high school (12 days until I graduate!:clapping:) but plan to become an automotive tech or welder..

    Awesome. Another young NWer. I don't have a job either. Usually do car repairs and construction. Most guys on here have pretty normal jobs. Not alot of big time shops or shop builds.
