I'm sure if I rode in it more often than once a month it I would get used to it and have an easier time. We've thought about trading it in, but are worried about loss of value. I'll have to check out the package we got and see what its worth.

This is mine and I love it. 7000 miles since Nov. It has been a big adjustment from 10 years of the F-150 but I must say it is so much better made.

The other product I can recommend for insomnia is Kava Kava pills. I sleep well and have vivid dreams when I use it, usually about 2 times a month after a series of nights of insomnia. If you can find it get some. The stuff I have is powered pill form.

Nah, the gas mileage sucks. I avg about 18-19 mpg. oh well, i knew that before i ordered it.

I have/had:

87 4Runner
94 Toyota Pickup
99 4Runner Limited
99 Tacoma Prerunner
2000 Prerunner
2005 Prerunner quad cab

I know my Toyota trucks pretty well, so there were no surprises. Like I said, this is the first one that I've had ZERO complaints about.

depends on size and features. my first one was a 7" i got last year shortly after xmas for $100....the new one is 8" with onboard memory, mp3 capability (which i think would just get annoying) and 2 different frames. one splits the screen into 4 small picture frames that coincide with a display mode that fits it. It was $150.

you can get a basic one for < $70 at this point, though.

I'm not sure what your make and model is, but read this.

Best Buy Digital Photo Frames Shipped With Virus

Electronics retailer Best Buy has pulled a popular brand of digital photo frames from its online and in-store shelves, following reports that many of the devices shipped with computer viruses.
The affected frames are limited to a particular size of Best Buy's own Insignia brand photo frames, the 10.4-ich version (model# NS-DPF10A). Best Buy spokesperson Nissa French said the virus was apparently introduced as some point in the manufacturing process (the devices are made in China).
Quote:
Reports of digital devices being contaminated with viruses seem to be popping up more frequently, perhaps because so many modern electronic devices now ship with components that include writable memory. The SANS Internet Storm Center has been chronicling reports of virus infections with other types of digital photo frames, as well as MP3 players and certain hard drives.
More information here at the ISC link mentioned in the story.

Quote:
  • Our readers reported more malware found on other devices such as
    • a set of MP3 playing sunglasses (store where sold is not known)
    • a 250GB Maxtor External One Touch Backup from Radio Shack
    • a "Flip Video Camera" from a California Costco
    • a MemoryVue 1040 Plus digital photo frame from Digital Spectrum Incorporated that was purchased at a Canadian Costco
    • an 8-inch Castleton digital photo frame from Uniek that was purchased at a Target
    • a Maxtor One Touch 250GB external hard drive purchased at Fry's Electronics

I like those wine in small bottles, like 4-packs. Very convenient for a single person like me. For example, I want to use some wine for cooking, I don't have to open and potentially waste an entire bottle. Easier to store. And it even comes in champagne!

"....potentially waste an entire bottle"

What? Waste wine? How in hell can that happen, short of dropping the bottle?
