Your age / occupation?

[Deleted member 5597]

Just turned 62. 100% Permanent and total disabled veteran of the US Army of 11 years. I bought, and am waiting for a production date, Maverick hybrid XLT with Lux package and co-pilot 360 in Velocity Blue as a second vehicle. We have a 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe that my wife uses to go to and from work. I need the Maverick for appointments, to just get out of the house when I feel like it, and to make runs to and from Home Depot and Lowe's. I do woodworking and make raised bed garden boxes as my side hustle. It keeps my mind and hands occupied and helps take my mind off of severe depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and PTSD, which are a part of my VA disabilities I suffer from, along with a host of other physical medical problems.

I am 35. I am an auto claims adjuster. It's stressful and unfulfilling but pays the bills. I will use my Maverick for home projects and woodworking.

Airline guy now.

Will be using the Mav to get to and from the airport so I can deal with irrational people who act like children on airplanes.

Thank you for your service

Maybe this isn't the place for the following, so delete if necessary.
Nam vet (and Cambodia) 64 & 65. No Vietnam Service Medal on my DD214 (wasn't available when I got out in 65 (and unit listed did not exist). Still trying to get comp for 2 presumptive Agent Orange conditions. Initially diagnosed with PTSD but not Service connected. Had to go to D.C. to get that. In my claim I mentioned the name of 1 operation and was told there were no operations by that name, and the unit of the men that I was with was not in Nam at that time despite 12 KIA.

Thank you for your service and a Big Welcome Home Brother

All this talk gun line & navy stuff brought memory of once when we called for artillery we got about 10 groups of nine rounds in three groups of three that you draw a straight line through and at least seven of the rounds would be on the line with the "strays" being within 50-100 feet long or short. All of the ten were the same distance apart one after the other. We were about 10 miles from the coast. If that was from the navy, Thanks that made our day! Fred, the medic B/3/21. Nam 67-68.

Just for fun -- what's everyone's age and occupation?

When I take delivery of my hybrid XL I'll be 63. I retired at 60.
