From Suburban to Cross Over: Anyone else making the conversion? - Nov 19 11:23 PM
Even though the price per gallon is creeping up to 2.89, I don't flinch as much as I used to when I have to fill up my gas tank.  Why?

The Perfect Time To Buy A Home - Jun 29 10:50 AM

4-wheel drive does NOT equal 4-wheel stop- Review of our Winter Driving Tips - Dec 06 04:31 PM
The snow started about 12:00 pm and the 3 mile "country" drive to my children's school today took about 20 minutes.  Even though my road has already been plowed, there were many cars and trucks are on the side of the road.  A Ford F-250 pulled out a Chevy, then the Chevy pulled out the Ford.  My best tip that I like to tell my husband (in the Ford), is 4-wheel drive does NOT mean 4-wheel ...
