the vendors do a damn fine job at giving us killer deals.If you give them a call im sure they will set you up. As far as venders the hook up the military im not sure. ive been serving for a long time and i have never asked the vendors if they give the military a discount. as i see it if they do cool but as of right now there prices are awsome and very hard to beat. o and if they do i will kick myself in the ass for all the parts i have bought that i paid full price

I've been in the military for 23 years and have always tried to help my fellow soldiers. In turn, most of them have helped support my buisness. Let me know what you need and I'll see what I can do.

But hey I just came back from Al Udied so not much I can say about Hardship....even though you get that extra $50 for Hardship Duty compare to the D.

A military discount would be nice. Only time I ever ask for a discount is if I am travelling. Around post seems like no one gives them. Not making the deployment dollars at the moment, so it makes it tough on the never ending upgrades to the GN, lol.

Take care,

No... THANK YOU for your service!! Please, tell Holly you are miltary if/when you call. Trust me, I know how tough it can be building a car on a military budget. That's why Hartline Performance started in the first place.
