I vote Explorer all the way! 8 hrs in ANY vehicle with/or without kids is stress in itself. Make the "family" comfortable and the ride will be less stressful on everyone.

RN, I'm telling Texasdeb about the "edit" feature, in case she might be interested. On the line that has the date and time, you can click on the square that has a gray "E". Your post will pop up in an edit box, and you can add the "RN", or anything else you want. There is a time limit for using this feature. I think it's 10 minutes, but not sure. RN, I vote for the Explorer.

RN, DH's older single friend Jimmy bought 2010 Chevy Camaro today. He is 69 years old. He thought everybody would be all envious, but the guys all giggled when he drove up.. because it's about 4 inches off the ground and he could barely get out of it...LOL After they finished laughing, they did say it was pretty nice But not before Jimmy tossed a few F words at them.

RN, single guy probably does not realize he is 69 and can barely get out of a chair much less from sitting on the ground in a Camaro. That happens. The body gets old but the mind stays at 21, thinking Camaros are cool for everybody.

RN: Landi, it's Dh and I an 3 kids from 3 AM until 12:PM. Where are we going to put all our luggage, what if it rains? I want the kids to be comfortable and the back seat of that truck is not comfortable for sleeping. The seats of the explorer recline. I don't want to hear the bitching of my 16 year old that she is uncomfortable and can't sleep. Plus we are transporting wedding cakes (unfinished) and there is no way they are riding around in the back of a truck for 8 hours. 3 kids across the back seat does not leave much room for anything else.

Ice it and you can scrape off most of it. After that, try hair spray to remove anything left (the solvent should dissolve it). Test on a small area of fabric first.

RN we're planning on staying in and watching movies for New Year's Eve. And hoping that the new propane fireplace Colossus just installed doesn't explode on us (insert crying smiley. I tried like hell to get someone from the steamfitter's union out here!!)

This is my brother (marathon runner, youth outreach minister) and 2 of my sisters. The younger one is in front of me (the marine) and the older one is to the right of me, she just had a baby.

RN Happy New Year, everybody DH had a couple cocktails and made about 6 buzzed happy new year calls to his buddies and cousins. At first I was embarrassed until I realized the people he was calling were more buzzed than he was. It's about 3 hours until midnight here and he just went to bed...LOL Oh well, I'll celebrate with my two puppies. I see the neighbors are in their driveway with beers, so I think they may have some fireworks again this year.
