Yep, I have a 2012 Terrain. Bought it from Hardy about a month ago.

Woohoo, I just bought the 2012 GMC Terrain and it is on there as well. I love it!!!!

if someone is wanting to use a device for taking notes, they aren't wanting to carry around a small flimsy netbook, an external hard drive, and an external cd drive. There is a reason that Samsung and Dell both just announced they are no longer making netbooks. They were the short term portable solution until tablets cam about. True a tablet doesn't have a disk drive, but considering my laptop doesn't have one either and i haven't used a CD or DVD in over a year, i do not see where that is such an issue. Tablets all use operating systems made to be used on a small screen. I tried using a

Honestly according to my experience and most people i know i would never recommend any tablet but the iPad, but i know others will argue that android is better no matter what critics and reviewers say. But they start at 499.

This was my first time going since i was a child. My wife isnt a big Disney fan or anything, but she really wanted to go there with me. So I decided to make it that much better. I do have to agree, it is a very magical place. But I dont think i would ever go with a child.

The story is so much better, but it is too much to type, but luckily we have it all on video. I had coordinated with Disney to make sure it went off great. They helped me out huge. We have pictures of the whole thing as it happened. They brought the ring out on a platter of roses, sitting in a glass slipper with my own engraving on it. As soon as she said yes Snow white rushed over and congratulated her and talked to her for a while and completely made her day even more special.

I took my at the time girlfriend to Disney World for Christmas last year. Her mom had already ruined the surprise that it was gonna happen while down there, but she didnt tell her how. I made sure that it happened the first full day we were there and I planned the entire trip around it. We went to the main park the first day at the break of dawn and had fun all morning. As we went to lunch she was determined we would eat for cheap at one of the little counters, but i was determined to see the castle. What she didnt know is i had reservations for us at Cinderella's Castle with a private ta

I would say that neither of them are at all good for note taking. I would say you would need a 10" tablet for that such as the iPad, or a laptop. Yes you can read ebooks on a laptop, but it is not as easy on the eyes, and it is cumbersome. Most of the small tablets and ebook readers are consumption devices. Read email, browse internet, and watch videos. They are not made for creating stuff such as notes, documents or anything like that. Netbooks are similar in the fact they have very cramped keyboards and very small screens yet use an operating system made for bigger screens which is

I would get the Nook Tablet for $250. Most all makers have decided not make Netbooks anymore as they are near useless. However, the Nook Tablet is a great and powerful little tablet that runs a more capable version of Android that is easier to use. The Kindle Fire is ok, but very limited and a few major drawbacks compared to the Nook Tablet. You can get the Nook Color for around 150 if you look around the internet and it is just a slightly lower version of the Nook Tablet.

If the world of Wally Paid its 1.4 Million U.S. Workers a Living Wage,

I am not looking to hide from it. If it were up to me i would put all haters and the like on an island where they cannot bring the rest of the world down the the hateful place they live. I guess some people were not raised to believe that positive reinforcement and encouragement go a long way. There are very few problems in this world that are solved completely through harsh words and conflict. Ignorance of these people is bliss, while those people are as dangerous to society as those who feel a supreme entitlement. -

Is there anyway to block viewing posts from people that are hateful and attack everyone? -
If the world of Wally Paid its 1.4 Million U.S. Workers a Living Wage,
Wineguy replied to LPPT's topic in RECENT TOPICS
Ok, let me throw this into the mix. While i had mentioned before i made good money for my age at about 12-14 an hour at 21 years old, my department manager and his wife both made between 21-25 dollars an hour each and were guaranteed 48 hours a week plus overtime. Needless to say these two people were making really good money and had no complaints. They both worked very hard and had a salary to prove it. I think it is the same people that always feel entitled to more that are complaining they don't make enough. By the way, to all of the people screaming Liberal this, Right that, Left t -

Wineguy replied to LPPT's topic in RECENT TOPICS
You are exactly right. I was able to get Health insurance, profit sharing and an annual bonus while working 32-40 hours a week. I made good money and was able to move from a cashier, to sales associate, to regional buying assistant in the course of 4 years and turned down an offer to move to Bentonville for 45,000 a year. I do not see how this is a bad living. I think the problem is that most of the people that work at Walmart are also the ones not willing to work hard for a living and complain about everything. The drama of the employees was UNREAL. I assure you Walmart has every possib -

I honestly think Walmart gets a very bad rap. I worked there for 5 years, and I went from $5 an hour when i started to $13 an hour when i left. At the age of 21 that wasn't a horrible wage. All you have to do is work hard and do a good job and you will be able to make a living and work your way up. -
We sent out 75 this year, and have received about 10 so far, and i know of about 5 or 6 more on the way. I am sorry to hear some of you haven't received too many this year, but with the postal service making cuts, maybe they are taking a little extra time to get there this year.

I just ditched Comcast for TV because of the insane pricing for what i was getting. I kept them for high speed internet since there isn't anything better available. But I am paying less (even after my year is up) than comcast, and i am getting 4 rooms of HD, with Whole Home DVR, and more HD channels. Plus the big seller for me is that i can watch about 50 stations on my iPad. That adds 1-2 extra screens for my wife and I. If in the kitchen cooking or in the office on the elliptical where we do not have TV, we can watch on our iPads. Overall just very happy with my decision.

Im 28, and I would like to think i am fairly successful, but I agree with this completely. I was raised this way to the T.

You do realize that at bestbuy they are hourly and not paid any commission right? They are generally just poorly educated on what they sell and biased.
-
I agree, for me personally this will have near zero impact, but i know for Millions of people this means a lot. I have a lot of family in more rural areas that are older that use absolutely zero technology. They still get their bills in the mail, mail checks, get magazine subscriptions, and still rely on getting checks in the mail. For these people this is a BIG deal, especially considering they will now be charging more for a more subpar service.

As a division of our government they should be required to make the changes that are in the best interest of the public, which would NOT be to cut back on the quality of service but to trim the inefficiencies and operational fat within first.

No, all sound bars have the receiver built in. The receiver on Home Theaters is what all of your components (DVD, Cable, Video Game, etc) hooks into. On a sound bar, you hook all of them up to your TV and then hook your TV to your sound bar, so there is no need for a receiver. Generally you will not have a receiver on a system with less than 3 speakers.

That is tragically horrible. -
I completely agree that the working conditions are horrible in these countries and that is in no way the situation we want to be in. I was simply stating that the system we are using puts business's including the USPS into a no win situation. No matter how good sales are, operational overhead due to Hyperinflated wages and extended benefits will keep companies in the red. There are alternatives that american companies use that work wonderfully without paying 100% benefits and 100% wages to people for 40-50 years after they only put in 15-20 years while making double to triple what similar j

Sorry, most of this will not take place until March at the earliest. They will be making more announced cuts later today as well.

I agree it does. The whole system of paying HUGE wages and paying them for life after only 15-20 years of service bankrupts the whole system. I understand paying fairly and giving benefits and retirement, but they should have to put in a life's work to earn a full life's retirement and even then they sould have to put into it, not just be entitled to it, the system cannot support that in the long run. Look at big city Police, Fire, and Emergency systems as well as the BIG Union industries. These are the reasons America is losing jobs overseas. In other countries they don't work with a fee
