I loved it...but would not pay for it unless I won the lottery. I wouldn't even have cable if my husband didn't want it. I also still have a cassette tape for a car luxury. I am way behind the times.<br />Don't be surprised if you start getting phone calls from collection agencies. It seems to be where all the jobs are these days. Everyone I know just about is being bugged by them, whether you have an outstanding bill or not. <br />I used to be one of the first to comment on your blog and now I am the last.....sigh. <br />I have a new computer that has Vista and I keep clicking off and the I get frustrated because...old habits are hard to break and the new warnings, etc on this one are driving me bonkers...Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04373560689980768576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-47372256134342943422009-09-03T23:53:30.302-04:002009-09-03T23:53:30.302-04:00A funny post.

I just got one about a month ago, three years old and I just love it. It's the first Ford I've ever owned--and the first car with power windows and locks. Yeah!

AM/FM radio are still free here. I used to like the selection of music I got on XM, but not so much anymore. I find I listen to almost all AM or my own CDs, so there really isn't much point to keep the XM.<br /><br />Sillyak, hopefully it's all done now, but we'll see if the folks in India who answered the phone, actually get the service turned off.Rudeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17889298704039071473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-85091908470703042592009-09-03T19:57:24.132-04:002009-09-03T19:57:24.132-04:00Don't you just hate dealing with the corporate...Don't you just hate dealing with the corporate dildos in the department so erroneously called "customer service".

Mine was 6 years old when I got it 3 year ago - it had one careful owner who clocked up 47,000 miles in those 6 years and now it has 130,000 miles up, some mileage thanks to my community work. Thankfully I get paid mileage for my working usage! I don't quite understand the references to XM, is it a telecoms/internet/satellite provider? Do you have to pay for FM radio or is it only AM in the car? I have an iTrip-like device (about one tenth of the iTrip price!) that enables my iPod to play thru' my car radio on a few different preset frequencies, that works great for me to listen to my podcasts or music as I drive between calls. <br />Take care, <br />Catherine.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116884676266268214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-83783521321289592382009-09-03T18:58:26.934-04:002009-09-03T18:58:26.934-04:00I read today some companies are going to charge ex...I read today some companies are going to charge extra if they have to send you a bill by mail, rather than on line.

I, too, could not get an aol account closed. I was flabbergasted, but I didn't sweat it. I just didn't pay for it and my situation was such that there wasn't anything they could do to get the money.The Crusty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03330045951877803329noreply@blogger.com
