If your not even going to have your car or use it much, I would spend the money on something else.

I won't have crap to spend my money on realy besides her and ill be having some extra cash laying around with my car also. i realy want to complete what i started to do. New Injecters, Maybe FMIC, W/M Injection, New Tune. I figured since i would most likely be in sanatonio,tx i would get a revo chip this time around. what you think guys?

If your not sworn in yet DONT! I'm speaking from experience. If your the kind of guy that allows idiots to be your boss, let ********(that u would normaly stomp on)yell at and disrespect you, and you have no free-will of your own: then and only then should you join the military. There are other options. I was involved in enough hairy **** to know that it's not as glamorous of a job as advertised(and that's IF you get a high risk/pay job). For me it was good because it was an alternative to jail/death. Not eveyone has better options. If nothing else, make sure you do what I did. Get a guaranteed job with special forces. Go talk to an airforce recruiter. Ask about Combat control.

a car is quite possible the worst investment you can do.

but then again, it's the most fun.
