    I looked into removing my home phone. For the difference in the bill it's not even worth it. It's less than $7 per month

    I had a home phone for a little while when we rented. It came as part of the package deal and I ended up just unplugging it. No one, and I really mean no one was ever given that number yet that stupid phone rang off the hook. The reason the phone is free for those package deals is the companies sell your number to everyone under the sun. It was just obnoxious so I kept it unhooked. Now I only have my cell.

    Same here - although Jen and I do without cable too so the bill is not as bad anymore. When we had cable and internet, it was almost cheaper to have the home phone as well - just a big bundle deal like you said and all I got were sales calls.

    Of all the carriers I've spoken to so far, T-mobile has the best rates. 40 per phone plus you can keep your current phone. Each line gets 10g per line. They will also reimburse you any money (penalty fees) it takes to get out of a current contract. The only unknown is their coverage. I haven't spoken to anyone yet that can comment on their service or coverage.

    I want to replace our phones with Galaxy 5's or Note 4's. The newest stuff is just like Apple and not expandable and the batteries can not be replaced. :(

    I love my note 3. My next phone will be a note 4 for that reason. I have a ton of music, topo maps, etc stored on my minisd card right now. I would like to keep that functionality

    Lame. When the time comes I'll just find one on Amazon/eBay. My note 3 works perfectly fine for the time being.

    Haha. Yeah the long tubes and y-pipe make the truck have a little more getup and go. Front plate? I'm not drilling into my bumper. Every year for inspection I just zip tie the plate to the bumper then cut it off and put it between the passenger seat and the center console til next year. Headlights will fix themselves once I finally get my new springs in the back. And the tint was darker than I asked for, but it works great and looks awesome too, so I'll keep it.
    I have the note 3. I came from an iPhone 5S, and I honestly can't wait until my contract expires so I can get another iPhone. The note is cool and all, but I don't like how it works. I've had an iOS skin on it since day one.

    AT&T offers a 20% discount for Subaru employees, so I might switch to them. Verizon has been awesome for me since 2006, but in NY, reception is scarce.

    I'm just the opposite. I prefer non-apple products but I'm also considering getting the new i-phones because Sprint has that iphone forever deal where you can always update to a new phone whenever they come out. I just really need to look into it

    Bad start to the day!!
    Heading to work heard a new noise then it got much louder, snapped a leaf on the passenger side.
    Has anyone had any luck getting them replaced under recall? Or am I screwed?
