A heavy foot is hard on fuel mileage in a big truck, so I gotta keep the speed down. Doing 60mph averages me 6.2mpg, if I woulda tried to keep up with that bus, it woulda dropped to 4.7ish or worse and my boss would kill me, but then meeting her mighta been worth it......

It averages out if the roads allow you to coast for a while.

What kind of truck do you have that gets 6.2 at 60 on a highway?!
 
I haul mail and pull a 48' trailer with a Kenworth W900. Its a big block going down the highway and speed absolutely kills fuel mileage. If I drove 70mph for a year instead of 60mph it would cost at least an extra $10,000 for fuel.
 
Time card for me. I don't leave the state and I don't get far enough away from home to have to keep a logbook.
 
BAM.

Ordered a Benchmade 275 Adamas because of that damnable folder thread.
The more reviews I read, the more excited I get about it.

That thing is massive. I thought my 561 was big but then I held the Adamas, Wow lol. You plan on pocket carrying that thing or on your belt?
 
How big? I like big folders, it might even move the RAT 1 to my maybe later list.

And it's for a good cause. :thumbup:

I've been trying out a lot of different knives in a lot of different categories since I found this damnable site a year ago, except for large, hard use folders because once I got an Adamas, I felt like I was good to go with that one.

I got rid of that yahoo toolbar that got installed the other day by using an uninstaller program. I still have an extra search box just to the right of the open new tab + mark on firefox. Add-ons won't open, so I can't get rid of it that way and I have done two system restores and it keeps coming back. I found that the search bar is from "Search Results, LLC", but can't find another way to get rid of it. Any suggestions?

Use chrome,IE, hell even safari. Firefox kinda sucks as a web browser. IMHO
 
I'm thinking about going to chrome, but I would really like to figure out how to get rid of it in case its more than just a search bar. If its this hard to get rid of it must be something more.

Perhaps you can uninstall, and reinstall Firefox?
 
Have you tried the hammer method?
I've found that works pretty well with all things technology.

Seriously, I use firefox and haven't had any issues (knocks on wood).
 
Yup, unintalled and reinstalled. I'm going to try that again and use this uninstaller a friend told me to try. I've gotta get all my passwords and usernames written down first and I'll see what happens.
 
Look in your uninstall/remove, for Default Tab. I guess this is the monster.
 
Oh dang!! I just realized what I was doing wrong to get rid of it when I checked that link. Too bad it was after I completely deleted everything. I got my passwords and whatnot, but lost all my bookmarks. I had saved them to my desktop the other day, but now that file won't open. Oh well, they needed to be cleaned up anyways, I musta had 2-300 of em. Looks like its gone now anyways.
