    Anyone know a reputable used car dealer in the Phoenix area?

    I should probably have put my request for anyone selling a used minivan in off-topic as well. Sorry. If anyone has a favorite used car dealer, we'd be happy to see if they have what we're looking for. Please PM me any thoughts, good or bad. Thanks!!

    Anyone selling a decent car?

    Even with the high costs of airfares around Christmas, it will be cheaper for the four of us to fly than drive to PHX. Anyone know anyone selling a decent car that we can keep in PP (with Mex ins of course) so we don't have to rent every time we fly in? Thanx in advance!

    Just found out about this program through Amazon. Pick your favorite charity and they'll get a half percent of whatever you purchase. No extra cost to you or the charity at all. You can change it at any time, so if you have friends who run a charity, have them look into getting a 501(c)(3)...

    Bringing patio furniture down...any tips?

    Hi all-- First off, I don't want to start a discussion about the ethics of avoiding import tax. That being said, I really wouldn't have the time to go around from store to store in Penasco to find what I needed. So, we're bringing some furniture down from AZ in an open pickup bed. I've heard...

    Uploading photos questions

    I've tried to upload with 4 different photos today. 2 were large files, one was a png and one was a small file. Are there size limits for jpegs? Are there file types you can and can't upload? Or is it just me? (Though I don't remember having this problem before)

    Hi all--we'll be coming down for a few months in February and curious what's available to rent. Bicycles? ATV's? Canoes? Anything available as monthly rentals or are they all daily? Maybe individual families would be interested in renting if they don't bring their toys back and forth?
