  1. That must be the National Rainbow Coalition edition.
  2. Speaking of bikes, I went to a couple events yesterday with some other members at SonsOfLibertyRiders.com. During our last outinga few weeks ago, one of the guys pulled up on a nice Goldwing with a convertible side car for his wife. This time, they pulled up on/in this: It's a Hayabusa with a set of beetle bags and a sidecar. The sidecar is equipt with an actuator that allows him to trim the sidecar up/down depending on road conditions. It operates much like the trim on a boat. The adjusting is all done with a touch of a button mounted on the handlebars, and all this can be done wihile going down the road. Pretty nice ride, for a sport bike anyway.
  3. I have no experience with a heater core in this truck, so I am not second guessing you. But I had a mechanic tell me that I would not have to remove the entire dash on my truck - just the glove box. According to him, it was 1997 (newer body style) when it became more difficult on the F-150's. Again, I have no experience, so I have no idea.

  5. I just may take one of you up on that offer. It's much appreciated.
  6. This isn't firearms related, but maybe someone else has one of these TV's. Due to multiple class-action lawsuits filed (one settled and at least 2 pending) against Sony, they have extended the warranty on many of their TV's. 3 1/2 MILLION TV's to be exact. The problem is, many consumers are not being made aware of the extended warranty because Sony is trying real hard to keep this hush-hush, for obvious reasons. I registered my 60" SXRD with Sony, and still was never made aware of the extended warranty, nor was I made aware of the potential for concern. How convenient. My boss and his parent, both have the same TV, and neither if them were notified either. The main focus of this extended warranty is the Optic Block and Related Problems. This is NOT a cheap fix if it ends up being an out-of-pocket expense. Figure upwards of $1500. If you own a Sony TV, the info at this link is very much worth the read. There is a list of Model Numbers and related information. Sony Optical Block and Related Problems (Sony LCD Rear Projection TV Problems) Anyway, with 3.5 Million TV's with porential issues, I thought there was a decent chance that more of our members may have one. Thought I'd pass it along.
  7. http://www.wkrn.com/global/story.asp?s=11427126 Soldier arrested after C-4 explosives found Posted: Nov 02, 2009 11:50 AM CST Updated: Nov 02, 2009 3:00 PM CST CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - An Army Special Forces soldier has been arrested following the discovery of about 100 pounds of explosives at his Tennessee home. Federal and military officials searched his home early Monday morning after a pair of hunters found the C-4, a plastic explosive, in a field off Johnson Road outside Clarksville. The soldier, who was not identified, is based at nearby Ft. Campbell. Maj. April Olsen, a spokeswoman for Army Special Forces at Ft. Campbell, said the soldier is currently being held in the county jail. Ted Denny, spokesman for the Montgomery County sheriff, said the explosives found Sunday appeared to be military ordnance. More information is expected later Monday afternoon. *The Associated Press contributed to this report.
  8. Probably true, but I'm not allowed to work on my vehicle where I live. I'll see how much it would cost to have put in.
  9. I may try to flush it again. If that doesn't work, I'll just deal with it.
  10. Yea, it's an F-150. I tried flushing the system last winter, but it didn't seem to help much. I am trying not to invest a ton of money because I plan on getting rid of it fairly soon.
  11. Isn't there something the police can do about this?
  12. Anyone have any good recommendations? The heat in my truck isn't all that great, so I thought about buying one of these to help keep warm. I don't want to install a power 12-volt power strip, so I'll have to stay away from the 984749875409876549 watt models. Wal-Mart has a 180 Watt model for about $25, but I have no idea if that would do the job or not.
  13. yea, the salesguy that came to my door was the same way. I don't recall the exact numbers, but one of the "perks" he mentioned was a $100 gift card of some sort. Well, when I called AT&T's customer service line with a few more questions, they told me the gift card was $200 or $250. I guess the salesguy is allowed to pocket that money if he can get away with it, because he didn't even mention it until the very end of our conversation, when he realized I wasn't really interested in switching to AT&T right there on the spot.
  14. I'm pretty sure you're only allowed 2 HD streams, max, with U-Verse.
  15. Probably not.
  16. I thought about switching to AT&T from Comcast, but I decided against it for a few reasons. Based on my current plan with Comcast, AT&T was only going to save me $15 a month. Remember to add in the taxes and other charges. The main reason I decided to stay with Comcast was, the technology, IPTV. If one of your services (Internet, Phone, TV) goes out, all of them go out. They are all run on the same system. After talking to a few people who made the switch, I wasn't crazy about the installation times. Almost 4 hours for one, about 5 hours for the second, and nearly 8 hours for the last person. From what I understand, the installation time can vary greatly depending on the age of your house. Another thing that bothered me was, they don't have any offices in the Middle Tennessee area. Comcast has several offices scattered all over the place. If your equipment quit working and you didn't want to wait 2 or 3 days for a new one, you can take it to the Comcast office for an exchange. Not so with AT&T. Because AT&T has no offices in the area, you have to give them your credit card info to hold on record. This is to ensure that you return the equipment should you move and/or cancel your service. You don't have to do that with Comcast. There were a few other things, but I can't remember them right now.
  17. I'm pretty sure this is the same thing Michael Moore reported 20-years-ago when Roger & Me came out in 1989. It's difficult for me to be surprised now.
  18. Like........Um........ Like.....For real.......DUH!
  19. During his research, Samsung in general was often at the top. You could probably find a Samsung without the steam option. Probably cheaper, too.
  20. My parents are on their second set of front-load washer and dryer. The first set was a Whirlpool, and the purchase was made with very little research. According to my father, this was a huge mistake. The Whirlpool set was nothing but trouble. To be fair, the Whirlpool set was purchased some time ago when the front-load washers were just coming to the market. This time, when they decided it was time for a new set, my father spent nearly a month and a half researching every option on the market. Everything pointed to the Samsung with Silvercare. Washer model number: 195027 Dryer model number: 195030 (Electric) He said that these are the stainless versions, but Samsung offered the same set in other color options, and the prices were a little cheaper. My stepmother just had to have stainless. They have now had the set for about 7 months, and not a single issue. According to him, this set does clean and dry far better, has much, much less vibration and noise (a common issue with many front-load washers), and very easy to operate. He did also mention that this set was towards the top of the price spectrum. And worth every penny.
  21. What is your price range? You can spend anywhere from about $1500 to about $3000 for a set.
  22. That's real darn fast, based on some of the numbers I've seen. Watch out, Wal-Mart shoppers.
  23. Nevermind. After reading This Page, I want nothing to do with NACA.
  24. I had a similar thought when I first visited the website. Being a single father who's never received a penny in child support or financial assistance of any kind (private or governmental), I sure wouldn't mind someone helping me get the best deal possible on my first home. I wouldn't be looking for free handouts or something that could negatively effect others, so I wanted to make sure I wasn't getting myself into something like that.
