How to buy your first car in the Military!

[@kevink5598]

Didn’t expect to see my old combat instructor on my KZbin video suggestions. Good to see you’re still in gunny. MCT west coast, golf company, Oct 2015.

[@evahernandez5579]

Gunny you’re so helpful. I want to thank you from the bottom of heart. My son went to Boot Camp yesterday. You answered so many of the questions that I might had. You definitely have made this journey easier for us. I joined some of the FB groups for parents that you suggested in one video and I’m so happy I can follow what my son will be doing on a weekly basis.

[@TSYONTZ]

Thats awesome! I’m so glad I could help and that you learned a lot!

[@dave223g7]

Poolee from Stockton. Important information in this video , Marines take care of each other . Thank you Sir

[@TSYONTZ]

You’re welcome. Glad it helped 🔥

[@carmentorres9100]

Another great video thank you!! My Son got an electric scooter with his bday money because we couldn't afford to add him to our car insurance with AAA I think he will be ready for a car and will be able to afford it now that he has been saving his money during bootcamp training...will definitely share this video with him...Keep those videos coming...blessings

[@TSYONTZ]

That’s awesome to hear! A scooter is better than walking lol. Also I hope he’s able to get one. He should be able to since he’s making good money now. Best of luck to him and I most definitely will 🔥

[@sadoxp7039]

Thanks for advice, I’m going to get a 90s civic $2k max

[@TSYONTZ]

[@dfmrh12345]

How’s the whip bro ! Going to join the Marine Corps with my Del Sol blown b18 motor and plan on completing the swap after boot camp.

[@PrettyBoyReynard]

[@blondedjake.]

Thanks for making this video! It was really informative!💪🏽

[@TSYONTZ]

Glad it was helpful!🔥

[@joe3379]

29% Camaro is a meme for a reason. Don't be the meme people 🤣 Update: Just finished watching, this is all top shelf advice. Heed Gunny's advice or pay the price.

[@TSYONTZ]

Lmao I agree! Don’t be the meme because it’s a real one sadly. Thanks brother I appreciate the support 🔥

[@zpezar8532]

Thanks for the videos Gunny. As someone who’s currently waiting for a Recon Contract and is training for Recon, do you think you’d be able to make a video on what the initial training is for Recon? Such as the RPAT. I’ve heard about it on the internet, but I’ve only found mixed sources that were a few years old.

[@TSYONTZ]

hmm that’s a good idea. I’ll definitely look into that and see if I can make something

[@curtisdavis8594]

Thanks for car buying tips....

[@dfmrh12345]

Prob just gonna buy an old CRV AWD with the table in the trunk.. then save for a clean RSX Type-S

[@RichTowsley]

Great Info

[@Type729beatz]

Good video Bro 🔥🔥🇺🇸

[@jacobmcconnell6809]

When you get stationed at your fleet do they tell you how long you’re gonna be there for? ( if that’s how it works)

[@cesarjaimes4245]

I love your video of marine tips. Can I join the marine corps age 19 , is there any sports like soccer tryouts and what Is good jobs at the marine corps

[@TSYONTZ]

You can definitely join at 19. Did you graduate HS? Also yes we do have sports in the Marines including soccer and depending on where you’re stationed there will be try outs. Lastly we have over 300 jobs. If you wanna find out more, contact your local recruiter, and schedule a sit down with them

[@BloodyC63]

Well if you don’t really need a car I’m just going to save up all my money and buy one when I get out 😂

[@AnnePeaceWithGod]

I have a question not regarding car buying. After bootcamp at Parris Island, do the boys go straight to Geiger?

[@TSYONTZ]

After boot camp new Marines will get 10 days of boot leave before heading to Camp Geiger.

[@maliquelloyd7779]

Yes very nice. Anyway I’m buying a hellcat

[@jesussavedseb]

So will it be smart for someone who’s a E3 to purchase a 40-45k vehicle?

[@TSYONTZ]

Idk if you’re being serious or not lol

[@jesussavedseb]

@@TSYONTZ a Kia k5 GT goes around for 28-30k so I’m probably looking at a $450-500 monthly payment . Is this necessary or just doing too much . I just want nice car with cheap to no debt ratio bro lol.

[@TSYONTZ]

My advice: Don’t. You don’t need a car that much tbh. Especially as an E3 when your paychecks aren’t that much as it is. I mean if you want, go for it but having been there and done that before, it wasn’t worth it IMO. That’s my .02. I’d find something something sub 20k if I were you (which there are plenty of nice cars out there in that range). If you want little to no debt, definitely don’t do it lol

[@michelleosborne1431]

My son is one year in now. He was using a bicycle at his PDS. Now he wants to buy a vehicle. He is wanting to get a used one. Plus his PDS is in state with cheaper taxes so he is thinking buying one there & registering it there. My concern is he is getting sent out of the country next year for about 6 months. He assumes it would be fine leaving the car on base while he is gone. Any tips?

[@TSYONTZ]

Ah yes the bicycle! Many good memories with those and skateboards lol. I recommend used as a first time buyer and also registering it the cheapest place he can. As for deploying and leaving his car behind, most just leave it in the parking lot. It’s allowed but it will be unattended the entire time. I would send mine home to my parents so they could watch it/take care of it while I was away. Worked out well each time. That’s what I’d suggest.

[@dbreezy7630]

G35 man love that car till a idiot pulled out in front me

[@robertwendal5894]

My daughter just got stationed at K-bay, now she swears you need a car to live on base, anyone have any advice, i told her get an electric bike but she's hell bent on a car.

[@Ciupma05]

Nothing to do on post which is why she wants a car

[@NinjaSenku]

Off topic. What’s the difference in recon and infantry if there not the same?

[@TSYONTZ]

Recon is specialized infantry. Infantry is just regular infantry. Think recon as better trained and more capable than traditional infantry.

Hella debt right behind it 💀

Hi is 39% apr good

[@MawsonDept]

Fuck no

[@gmoney9068]

Not sure of your rank, Marine but I think you're a Staff Sergeant? Anyway, if you're still in the recruiting billet, I have a quick idea to throw out to you that you may want to pass on to any new recruits headed to Boot Camp: Get familiar with how to use a needle and thread before you get to MCRD. I remember having to sew countless buttons on my utility uniforms. Just sayin'. Semper Fi.

[@megganheinemann4745]

I follow u on TikTok but can't ask any questions because your not following me back

[@TSYONTZ]

What’s your question?
