jkennell Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 Guys: Long time no visit. Life's gotten real busy, what with a growing business, kids in college, and being primary caregiver for an elderly parent. We simply have no time to travel anymore. As such, I'm advertising our rig over in the "For Sale" Forum. I have a few pictures posted. Asking $17,500 for the HDT and 5r pair. Because they are older, they need some TLC, and someone handy. Nothing really wrong, just little things. Would be a great rig to park at a favorite campsite, or for a young family with a handy parent! It was great being a part of this forum--great group of people, and we are sorry to be "getting out", but I fully intend to at least visit here when we can.

rickeieio Posted August 17, 2018 Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 Jeff, Do stop in occasionally, both here and physically if you're down near Cincy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkennell Posted August 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2018 Thanks Rick. One of my girls has been trying to find a police officer job down in the Columbus/Dayton area for over a year....so far no luck. If she does, I'll probably be down that way occasionally.....

jkennell Posted August 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) Thanks. I'm trying to convince her there are jobs outside OH--she likes the state and hopes to move there! Its too bad the officers have to go to Police Academy in the state they plan to work in...makes it hard to be flexible unless you want to go to (& pay for) the Academy again.

It may be too bad, but it's pretty much necessary. It's difficult for a department to take on the liability of a new employee, especially one with the authority of a police officer, without undertaking their training. However, even though she may have to attend another academy, she may not necessarily have to pay for it. Many departments in Texas underwrite the cost of training their new officers, even operating their own academies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmup68 Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 and TX, TN, and NV, for example, have no state income tax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance A Lott Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 In Vermont the department pays for the academy and if you are moving from a different state and are a currently certified officer you only have to attend a one week class and then take other classes over time. Or at least that's what it was when I was a deputy. In fact Vermont departments actively recruit from other states so they don't have to pay for the full 8 week academy. I have a second cousin who is going to be a fish and came officer and she is getting a job in Maine because they have a better program and then she will move back to Vermont. I believe she had to make a time commitment and has to wait for a position to open up, but they realy want her. She and her sister don't take after the rest of us in the family. Her sitter was the valadictorian in her high school and the saludadictorian in her collage two weeks apart. I can't even spell them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkennell Posted November 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 So far, I've had very little interest in the rig. Timing is wrong, I know. Dropping the price on the whole rig to $15K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darryl&Rita Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 Would be a decent way to get your toes wet. Sell it down the road with minimal price change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
