And I could be wrong on this but I remember reading somewhere that certain counties mandate it, but again not 100%. I don't think it was statewide or anything though. Also thought I read that only something like 5-15% of workers don't get paid vacation, so it's not really a huge margin of people, and those jobs are mainly minimum wage/dead-end jobs where you're sort of expected not to stay there too long.

Not that I have anything against mandating it. It would probably be a good thing with very limited downsides. But I doubt it'll happen soon in a country where corporate business has so much power
yeah but there are organizations that give vacation leave but then give the employee grieve for taking it. Then the employee feels guilty for taking their vacation or fear they will be fired. If it mandated then the organization will get fined for preventing the employee from taking a holiday(vacation).

Just means that your Thursday will be your Friday. It doesn't matter because there is always a Monday.

What do you mean by supporting mods?

Stock internals are good for over 600rwhp and 10lbs of boost (All depending on your driving habits, I only go WOT a few times a week)

Rear end is good to around 650-700rwhp if all you do is roll race, digs will snap it up on sticky tires

SS stock fuel pump will limit your horsepower to around 500 with stock injectors (This would be with exhaust upgrades, so without you are probably going to be in the 440-480 rwhp range I am guessing)

EVERYTHING is dependent on a good tune, that's what is most important.

Probably going to do the Woodward dream cruise this year with the lady friend. We would've gone last year but we showed up the week after it was on without knowing.

Has anyone done the front radius arm/rod inserts and the steering rack bushing? Probably going to order those since it'll be like 40 bucks for both. Seem very easy to do.
