    I've left the auto industry

    I resigned from my position designing automotive RF electronics and moved into design for industrial products.

    I'm going to miss having all the advance knowledge of cars, specs... getting chances to drive them. I'm going to miss driving around and looking at cars and saying, "that has my new design... "

    I still have plenty of friends in the industry that can keep me posted on all the cool details. And there will be a few million vehicles out there that I can say I've had a part in designing. Which is cool.

    I'm still keeping my Marauder. In fact, now it'll be a bit easier to own.

    Tell us more...

    quote:...having all the advance knowledge of cars, specs...

    What can you reveal or even hint at, without violating non-disclosure agreements?

    The more I learn, the more I find out I don't know.

    Confusion will be my epitaph...

    I can't say about anything about what hasn't been sold/revealed/purposefully whispered.

    The most exciting stuff though, is already out.

    You'll probably be more secure out of the car business.

    Rest area, rest home -- what difference does it make? I'm sure Grandma enjoyed seeing all those big trucks pulling in and out.
