[QUOTE="Lyman1969, post: 70840610, member: 395239"] Hey. My name's Forrest (Yes, like Forrest Gump, yes there are jokes, yes they're still kind of funny). I grew up in rural North Carolina, raised by my dad, as my mom left when I was too young to even remember her. Dad was a mechanic, so obviously I was interested in cars from a very young age, practically grew up in the shop. The locals always thought it was cute that a 7 year old was changing their oil or taking their tires off, and the shop was popular enough for us to make a decent living (Decent for being in the rural south, where everyone is poor). As I got older, dad started teaching me more complex things, and by the time I was 15 I was getting pretty good at rebuilding engines or fixing dents. Eventually though, my dad knew I was outgrowing this small town and wanted better for me, so he saved up some cash, started leasing a shop in Atlanta, found a cheap apartment near it and we moved when I was 16 to this massive city (It still blows my mind to this day that it needed an interstate just to loop around it so you could get to the other side of town). I've been here two years now, I'm 18 and co-own the family business with my dad (In fact, I'm the head mechanic, training an apprentice, and dad is handling the actual business part), got a girlfriend who's really into Feminism (I'm not, but I try for her at least), and a pet cat that's crazy as a coon. I like cars (Old muscle, tuners, German, Italian, British, Japanese, doesn't matter. If it has at least 2 wheels and an engine, I'm in), guns (Own three, a Glock 19, a Remington 870, and an AR-15 that I built), weightlifting, hunting, fishing, hiking, photography, video games, technology and a bunch of other stuff. I was raised Christian, and have been one for as long as I can remember now. Was baptized in a creek in the summer of 2010, and aside from a few adventures with peer-pressured underage smoking and drinking, was mostly a tame kid. Well, that's the end of my (Rather long) story. Looking forward to meeting you all. [/QUOTE]
