Mustangg,

I hope that after you graduate from high school that you seriously consider attending either United Technical Institute (UTI) or Nashville Auto Diesel College (NADC). Excellent schools. Both offer 1 year of top-notch, intensive training. Jaguar, Porsche, BMW, GM, Caterpillar, VW are just a few of the companies that recruit graduates from these technical colleges.

BTW: It's no longer Auto mechanic, guy...it's Automotive Technician. Computer electronics are the new game with today's cars. Knowledge is economic power!

I know for a fact that many of the graduates from these schools that applied themselves are making between $50,000 to $80,000 per year!

Don't sell yourself short and GO FOR IT! [:)][:D][8D][;)][8)][4:-)]
