I like the way you broke that down. I know the first couple of times I itemize and file quarterly that I'm going to be stumbling, but it doesn't seem terribly difficult.

( IF I lease :] )

I completely agree. Turbotax is incredibly friendly. The one year I was lazy and had H&R prepare my taxes - they screwed them up. I'd go into detail, but basically my taxes were held for weeks due to an error they made.

I'll be continuing to use Turbotax, though I am curious... Phox, you are figuring out your quarterly payments with Turbotax?

Thanks for linking those lists Phox. I noticed on the first list it had things such as coffee maker, sirius radio, etc. Can you really claim these things?

Wifi on the road

It's $95 now? Wow. Yeah, I've been grandfathered in to lots of things that either don't seem to be offered anymore or have different pricing. Either way, I still love T-Mobile. I've been with them almost 20 years (or has it been more?) and I don't see myself changing any time soon.

I hear you lady. My family and myself had unlimited data at Verizon. Two months ago they decided to add twenty bucks to anyone that had been grandfathered in :| Still a great deal, but aggravating once we got our bill.

T-Mobile's unlimited everything plan is only $80/month.

Tmobile unlimited is 95 a month, plus taxes and all the other crap they tax on. Something to mention is they use Binge for unlimited streaming that doesn't go against your data (netflix, hulu, etc.) Plus, you can stream your music and not effect your data either. This is for your phone though, I'm not sure if they charge you more to use it as a hotspot.

Personally I stream on free sites that aren't supported by Binge, so I'm not sure what route I'll be going. An 18 GB hotspot from Tmobile is something like 80 bucks a month.

Just for reference: Cricket - currently runs 55 a month for 10GB. It's another 10 a month to utilize your phone as a hotspot.

At&T just announced an unlimited data plan, no idea how much that crap is, but you have to bundle it with some direct TV thing. Also, the data slows after 22GB, so it's not actually unlimited in data and speed. They do not offer unlimited for anyone that won't bundle.

It seems that torrenting movies at rest stops is probably the cheapest option. You can get antennas that boost your wifi range that aren't too pricey.

Questions about CDL training for Prime Inc.

Oh snap. Well, I can be shy and I'm nonsmoking :D Will you update us Neesa? I go a couple weeks after you.

About showering....lol

Someone told me there is a group of twenty people waiting for trainers at Prime as we speak :/ I do hope they are just picky. Nonsmoking and quiet.. That's all I need in my life. Hadn't thought too much about age in terms of trainers. The more I read on the forums, the more I'm sure I'll find someone poking around the training area.
