atlanta-roo says "Not my style, but a good SUV" about Jeep Grand Cherokee - 1998

atlanta-roo — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 20:04:12 GMT

My sister got her 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee in 2000 with about 70,000 miles already on it. It now is a hair's breath away from 200,000 miles and still running fine. We've had to make a few repairs in the past couple years, but none over $500. I started driving the Jeep about a year ago. I've never been a fan of this car; I don't like the way it drives (personal preference, my sister loved this car). Gas mileage is pretty good for an SUV (much better then the newer Grand Cherokees). Overall, even though this car doesn't suite my taste, it's been a great, reliable vehicle.

atlanta-roo says "The hype is true" about Toyota Camry - 1997

It's pretty well known that the Camry is one of the more expensive cars in its class, but you get what you pay for. My dad has a '97 Camry that I drove frequently when I was learning to drive and have driven intermitantly since getting my own car(s). This Camry has out-lasted my mom's 1999 Acura, and my 2002 Chevy. My sister's 1998 Jeep is still going but has required some repairs. In 12 years we have had ZERO MAJOR REPAIRS on the Camry. And at nearly 200,000 miles it still drives much more smoothly than the (48,000 mile) 2000 Grand Am I'm driving now. This car will never stop impressing me. I have the Grand Am right now because my grandmother gave it to me for free. Whenever I have to get a car on my own it will be a Camry, no question about it.

atlanta-roo says "I loved her, but she had her faults" about Chevrolet TrailBlazer - 2002

I got my 2002 Trailblazer for high school graduation in 2004. I love the look of this vehicle and loooove the way it drives. It feels much more stable than most SUVs. Gas milage was okay for an SUV but by no means great. And it's big without being one of those giants you see soccer moms struggling to manuver through the Publix parking lot. Everything was great and I thought this car would last me into my 30s until 2007. First I had these weird electrical problems when i unlocked the car (even when I unlocked manually). The locks would jam-up, the windows wouldn't roll down, and the side mirrors moved themselves in and down. I had to turn the key and hold it turned as I opened the door to get into the car. And that stupid clicking noise of the locks and the mirrors would go on for 30 min after I left the car. I finally got the money to get it fixed. A couple months later I started having problems with starting the car; the battery was dead. I took her into the shop...

atlanta-roo says "Off to a rough start... I'm giving it one more week" about GNC Burn 60

Like so many products out there, Burn 60 seems to affect everyone differently. I started taking it 5 days ago on the reccomendation of a friend who loved it. First of all, I have to say ALWAYS follow the instructions when putting any pill into your body! I noticed a few reviews that mentioned adverse affects when they take it in the afternoon or evening. It says on the bottle to take 2 pills before breakfast.

As far as my experience, this pill has made me feel very naseous. I've yet to be able to bring myself to work out because I feel like I just want to vomit. However I do feel more awake and alert than before. The second side effect I noticed was mood swings. I had been in a great mood up until I began taking Burn 60. I had lost 15 pounds and just got a job. On my 2nd day taking Burn 60 I started feeling depressed. I initially attributed it to one of my natural lows that I am prone to. But for the past 2 days I've been really angry which is so unlike me; I'm an...
