new member from FL moving to BC soon!

Post by h2wrench »

hello my name is mike I'm from Orlando FL i will be moving to Vernon BC soon. i can't wait to find some good trails in this beautiful part of the country. I have a 2005 desert sand h2 sut. i love my truck its the truck i have always wanted. I'm a former hummer master technician of 8 years until our hummer dealership was wound down, I currently work at a Chevrolet dealership and still enjoy working on hummers when i get a chance to. I like taking my truck off road and having a good time with friends. I'm a guy that likes helping out on the trail if repairs need to be made. I'm currently a member of the hummer club in the US, had some good times at hummer events. I look forward to meeting some new friends and going to some Canadian hummer events!

Hello Mike, Welcome to Canada.
 
If you are interested there is a military collector and HMMWV rebuilder in Vernon.  He hires mechanics from time to time when he gets overloaded with work.  He would surely appreciate the conversation if you were available. 
 
I am heading back down for more parts if you want to drop me a PM or shoot me an email to [url=mailto:derekforest@Hotmail.com]derekforest@Hotmail.com[/url] with your mobile number perhaps come and see his group of toys.
