Yes sir, BC, congratulations on your son. I can imagine the slow sense of relief as you start to witness the good upbringing paying off. You can only take them so far, and then hope for the best. Looks like he's heading in the right direction.

He could split the difference, finance some of the car and put half towards a house.

Regardless, it's encouraging about the potential of youth and the myriad of opportunities afforded your son.

I can't think of too many things more apropos than a proud young man serving his country, pulling on to a military base in the deep south in a finely tuned precision instrument of speed and power produced by the fine folks of Mopar!

Perhaps, back to the whole music thread, Mississippi Queen blaring through the MyGig to boot would top it off nicely.

I have some good friends who were stationed in the Air Force outside of Buffalo. Not sure if that base is still open, but if it were, maybe a path back to NY for your son.
