ahcockrell says "Recalculating Review" about Magellan - Maestro 4000 GPS Navigation System

ahcockrell — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 20:09:02 GMT

My husband and I purchased the Magellan - Maestro 4000GPS Navigation System a few months ago when he started traveling with his job. It has helped us find places that we didn't think could have existed. It is very easy to use and with his large fingers the touch screen is a breeze. The only problem we have had with this navigation system is that on long trips on a interstate - the voice will scare you to death after it has been idle for a while. One problem we have had is that is sometimes takes a while to recalculate at the beginning of a trip. If we turn it off and go where we know to go without it, it starts back at the place where we turned it off and takes a while to update, so if you leave out thinking you know where you are going before it recalculates, you could be on the wrong track and have to detour. We really have enjoyed this product and would still be lost if we hadn't had it on some of our trips.

ahcockrell says "A darn good car." about Ford Taurus - 2003

I bought my 2003 Ford Taurus brand new. The only time it has been in the shop is when a deer decided that it wanted to ride on the front driver's side. My taurus is top of the line. it has leather seats, sun roof, etc. The only problem that I have had is that the blower motor on the air conditioner keeps making a funny noise. My husband has replaced it two times. On other sights I have read that this is caused from missind water plugs under the dash and the motor gets wets and starts to make a whining noise. Now I don't know about you, but my kids do enough whining in the back seat, I sure don't need any coming from the front of the car. This car rides and handles like a dream. I have the engine with the dual overhead cams and it will take off like a scalded dog - as my grandmother used to say. My next car will definitely be another Ford about the same size as the Taurus. It has been a pleasure to drive.

ahcockrell says "My husband loves it." about L`Oreal Excellence Triple Protection Color CrÃ¨me # 6R Light Auburn

ahcockrell — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 19:46:56 GMT

L'Oreal Preference Creme is an awesome hair coloring system. I have naturally brown hair that has lots of red in it (well I guess it's naturally gray!) I went from ash brown to L'Oreal Preference 6R. My husband LOVES it. He says that it makes me look much younger. I have blue eyes and freckles and everyone thinks this is my natural color. The application is very easy. I have just now started doing only the roots instead of the whole head and the color looks even better because there are no dark spots from where the ends were getting colored more. Sometimes the odor of hair coloring can be overwhelming, but the odor for L'Oreal preference Creme is not that bad. I also wash my hair with mild shampoo (baby shampoo) immediately after rinsing so that I don't have any stains on my face. This seems to be fine and the color doesn't fade anymore quickly than without. I would definitely recommend this product

ahcockrell says "L'Oreal Bare Natural Minerals is great for a woman who sweats." about L'Oreal Bare Nataurel Mineral Makeup

I love L'Oreal Bare Natural Minerals Makeup. I sweat even when it is cold outside and this makeup stays on even when I am drenched. One of the things that I like best is that it doesn't look like you are all caked up with foundation. Your natural skin still shows through. I have freckles and love them. when I use Bare Minerals, my freckles still show, but my skin looks more even than if I was wearing nothing. I also have very red spots on my cheecks and this makeup helps this blend in with my other skin tones. I also have oily spots around my nose and forehead. This is also taken care of with Bare Minerals. The only problem I have is that the bottom of the brush is fashioned in such a way that some of the powder gets wasted when it sticks to the base. Otherwise there is nothing that I don't like about Bare Minerals. My niece uses the same product from Bobbi Brown and it is sooo much mor expensive.

ahcockrell says "The i265 is dependable and simple to use" about Motorola - I265 Cell Phone

ahcockrell — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 19:29:51 GMT

The i265 Motorola cell phone is very dependable and sturdy. My phone has been dropped from 20 feet numerous times, run over by a car, and used as a teething ring for a baby. The i265 is very simple to use and has never let me down. I text quite often and the only time I have had a problem was when the signal was extremely low. The i265 from Motorola has been one of the best cell phones I have ever had - and I have had quite a few. I like the fact that it is not a flip phone because the ones I have had tend to break at the hinge of the phone. This phone has a keypad that is easy to see and the keys are large enought for even my husband's large fingers. Since this phone is not tiny, it fits better on the side of your face, thus making it easier to hear the person on the other end. I would recommend the Motorola i265 to anyone who is rough on their phones. It is like a Timex, it takes a licking and keeps on ticking!
