Ok, So the Circuit City Story...

Back on BLACK FRIDAY, yes 11/24/06 I was stupid enough to go to the store because they had a crazy sale on CF Cards. Well I got there at 6:30 and they were gone and it was a madhouse there. SO i decided to go home and buy them online. So I purchased, on 11/24/06, a 2G CF and (4) 1G CF cards. I JUST recieved the complete order today due to their stupidity. I've emailed like 6 times and called them a few hundred as well. I'm sitting here filling out my rebate info and the rebate expired on 1/13/07. JUST got off the phone and thankfully the man in india told me they'll still honor it but i'm SURE it is going to be more hassles in the near future.
I will NEVER purchase a single item from circuitcity.com again no matter WHAT the deal is.

Can you get one of your kids to do it?

That's a thumpin sweeeeet ride, Crissa!!

I've wanted a 4-wheel drive for a long long time. I've put in my dues with used vehicles, and little disposable cars for years, and finally, the time was right I guess. It just kinda happened with no planning whatsoever.

What a pain in the patootie.

Steel grey metallic. It's very pretty.

I may be able to bribe them with something...I'll have to think on that one a bit.

Nice Cat!! Did you get the hybrid? I would love to get a hybrid.

No. But it does have a nifty fuel economy thingamabob. It's a V8, but when you get out on the open road, it shuts down 4 cylinders to maximize fuel economy. It gets better gas mileage than our little mini pickup. THAT was a huge plus compared with other SUVs we had looked at.

Congrats Cat
I looked long and hard at getting that vehicle a when the new model came out. I also looked at the new Expedition. Both are great vehicles. I decided to keep my '02 'bought and paid for' Ford F250 for another year and buy some more camera gear instead.
Waiting eagerly for those new camera bodies to come out.

Is there a Yukon hybrid available in the US, there is definitely not one here in Canada yet?

Thanks Jim.

Our almost 6 foot tall 12 year old boy was growing out of our Dakota FAST. The last trip we took to CA, we were packed in like sardines. Makes for a LONG trip, LOL. We knew the day was coming when we were going to have to get something with leg room. It just came sooner than expected.
