What vehicle tech is the Corps investing in?
I mean technology wise, what vehicles are big with the Corps? What contracts are newest and in the development pipeline, that the Marine Corps' all about? I'm a certified auto technician, and I'm told I'm smart, so maybe I should choose an MOS I'm strong with. But I don't want to choose a tech if its going to be obsolete in two years. I should learn on a system that's going to last a while, you know what I mean?
Thanks Mat

In my opinion do a job in the military you can't do elsewhere. No shame in being a mechanic, but you can do that at home for more money with less yelling.
Most major vehicle maintenance is performed by contractors. Maybe some mechanics can chime in, but all our motor-t mechs did was change tires and oil, and top off power steering fluid... in fact most of us just did that ourselves. Whenever we had a vehicle problem we would drive it to one of the contractor set up sites in Afghanistan, where these dudes were making 200K a year fixing fire extinguishers.

I laughed when I read 200 k. That's insane money for a 24 yr old living out of his luggage. I'll definitely take your advise with what else I've been told.
Thanks, Mat
