... or don't.

My name's Jeff, I'm a truck driver/equipment operator turned diesel tech, originally from Mississippi, and now living in Colorado. My first Blazer was a 1988 K5 which I sold some years ago. The Blazer I currently own is a 1997 model, which I got a really good deal on ($3k with 73k on it) after returning from an 18 month stint working in South Africa in 2009.
I'm also not so good with introductions.. not that I should seem all that interesting.. but feel free to ask any questions if you have some for any reason.

Thanks. Glad to be here. I've been semi-lurking on this forum for some time, as this forum often comes up in Google search results. So I finally figured I'd go ahead and register.

Ah. Mine was 91B when I enlisted, until the Army decided to reorganize and give my MOS to the Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic (because they amalgamated the Light Wheeled Vehicle and Heavy Wheeled Vehicle Mechanics together)... which, somewhat ironically, is more in line with what I do now as a civilian. The old 91B MOS got folded into the new 68W MOS (and if you didn't have at least an EMT-Basic license, you were 68Z until you were qualified), and I served in line units, listening to the 11Bs talk their trash about how I was a POG, etc.... until we got deployed, that is.
