I meant 22+ highway. I have looked at a couple of older Explorers and such but several are only around 18-20 highway. My wife puts on average 15 miles a day driving around town - but want the mileage boost as we would use it for travel (650 miles to my parents).

I looked at a couple vehicles from them. I know they have a good rep, but the few vehicles I looked at seemed overpriced when looking at KBB. And Carmax will not negotiate price.

I think City Auto was one of the places I looked at online. I have no problems buying from an individual, have several times before, just haven't found what I am looking for yet. Chris and Terry, thanks for the offers. Will send you a pm.

The question kind of answers itself I know...   but, my wife is needing a new vehicle. She has a decent car but it is too small for our family so trying to upgrade to a SUV. I have been looking around at Cars.com and Autotrader and having problems finding anything in our price range and with acceptable mileage. Basically we are trying to find a SUV that gets decent mileage (22+) and under 130k miles for a good price. The ones I find are either over priced/over budget, over 150k miles or at a small lot that I mistrust right away.   Have any of you dealt with used care dealers in the Columbia/Franklin/Nashville/MBoro area that you felt comfortable dealing with and would go to again? I am trying to get a list of who to avoid completely and who I should consider talking to.  I have dealt with a few before and did not buy at the time and will not go back again. I have been trying to search private party sales with no luck either.     

Thoughts to you all Tanker. Loss is always hard, even when it is expected.

Glad its back. I watched part of the marathon today too.

That are indeed, just stuck a magnet to them. Superman, thanks for the info. The 62gr TSX are longer than I thought they may be. Just looked at the Barnes website, the 62gr TSX are listed for 1:9 twist. The 55gr TSX are 0.797 and listed for 1:12 twist - I may try and test both just to see but I think I will need to stay under 0.900 length.

Mine doesn't seem to be the weight as much as the length causing the issue.

Just measured the bullets I have. 55gr FMJ 0.732 55gr Sierra SP 0.729 64gr Nosler 0.791 62gr FMJ 0.912 75gr Hornady 0.989 Since the 0.912 62gr almost stabilize, it looks like I may need to find bullets under 0.900 to shoot.

My rifle has a 16" 1:9 twist barrel. I have been trying some different weight bullets to see what will stabilize and what doesn't. What I have found is I need a short bullet to stabilize. I bought some 62gr bullets and a box of Hornady 75gr match bullets from David at the MBoro gun show. The 62gr are almost stable at 50 yards, about 1 in 3 have a small keyhole. The 75gr tear all through the target sideways. I also bought a box of Nosler 64gr Bonded Performance bullets to test. They are shorter than the 62gr above, and stabilize in my rifle. So, my question is what are some heavy but short bullets I can try? Like I said the Nosler 64gr shoot well and I have a box of Nosler 60gr Partition on the way. I am.thinking about getting a box of Barnes TSX 62gr and Sierra 65gr to test. Are there any other bullets I should be looking at? My intended purpose is hunting and self defense - for shooting I have a bunch of 55gr FMJ that group very well.

I am hoping to go shoot today, wanted to yesterday but spent all day rebuilding ESX servers for work (2 left today, shouldn't be too long). I have a couple of new loads to try out in my AR to help me decide which powder I want to stick with, my tax return hit my bank account so I am going to stock up on some components.

I found this while browsing for another item. It is much cheaper and says good for 1k rounds. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/3d-eco-target.aspx?a=1657134

  When I was there in November, yes it was free. They had a lot of stuff to look at, think the sign said over 1k firearms.

  I use this sometimes, but it is a very crappy remote software compared to some others out there (very laggy). Also, Join.Me is only free for a few (think it is 3) times and then you have to sign-up for a 30 day trial and then buy a license. I have LogMeIn through work so not a big deal for me now, but I used to just create a new free email address each month and register for a new trial...

I've been to a couple of Cabelas and loved walking around looking at everything. Not always awesome deals, but can spend a whole day just looking at the displays and stuff. Really wish we had one in Mid TN, but I travel to Louisville for work every few months so can stop in Bowling Green when it opens. Also, if you have never been to the main Bass Pro in Springfield, MO it is almost as good as the couple of Cabelas I have been in.

  Not sure about fried coon, but BBQ'd coon is a real treat. Can pull it like pork and makes a great sandwich.

I have used H&R Block online the past couple of years, they have plenty of coupons/specials so can save some money on the deluxe option. I used to use Tax Act online but H&R has found some extra money for me the past couple years. My taxes are fairly simple though, no rental properties or some of the other stuff that can cause confusion.

Plastic jugs, water, and red food coloring are much cheaper. Yes these are cool but I'm not spending that money on a target good for only one range trip.

I thought it was disrespectful. Yes, America is multinational and cultural but English is our language. Other countries have their own language and songs. In English is how the song should be sang IMO.

Sierra has an awesome manual. I also like the Nosler manual but I shoot several Nosler bullets...

Congrats Seahawks fans! I cannot believe the game played out that way, I expected it to at least be a game.

Shitty "opera" singing of the anthem. Just sing it properly for once. My score projections are already out the window, damn center.

I do I use the website some, just like having a hard copy in front of me in the garage and my printer sucks to try and print multiple pages. I was able to grab a copy at the other Kroger in town - it is only a few bucks so much better than a typical $20 manual.

One a month? I married the wrong woman! Im lucky to get one every 6 months.

I guess you could say he turned his life around a bit, realized some of his problems were his own fault and not the fault of those who tried to explain things and help him. He specifically meant to kill the pastor and probably himself that night. We talked for a but, strange how someone can blame others so much that they think killing them would fix everything.
