Default Quick intro.

Hello everyone, I'm new to building and I want to give my hand at it. I have fallen in love with the LS engines and mods. I am active military and work on helicopters so I do have a good handle on mechanics, with that said I haven't really messed with vehicles.

I plan to get a truck and build the engine for starters, I am married withb3 kids and would like to use this truck for family adventures. I'm just not sure what trucks will be best to mod and have enough room for the family as well. I will be asking lots of questions so please be patient with me as I learn the ropes
