    The main reason I drive a Ford instead of a Chevy is because I didn't want a cell phone in my truck.

    I like my cell phone coz I don't need an iPod to listen to music in the car. I rarely give my nomber out so I rarely have to use it as a phone.

    Fit's right into my watch-pocket!

    Dude, I remember when every house with kids had a hallway phone and about 40 feet of curled extension cord. The phone got drug all over the house! We also had 'TV carts' to roll the tv about. Then the aluminum foil flags and such on the antennas.

    I got my very first cell phone a couple of years ago. How could I resist a phone named Droid Razr ? I never thought I'd give up my land line, but 3 months later I did. Now I'm a dyed in the wool smart phone guy.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Pixel,,,, you need to go to Wal Mart & get a cheap little prepaid GPS cell phone with a $25.00 limit,,, just for emergencies. You could be headed to the grocery store,,,run into a ditch,,,damage the doors & can't get out,,,succumb to starvation in a week or two,,then get eat'n by bugs,,, all because you didn't have a cell phone.

    Talking to my truck is not very high on my list.

    My mother who is in her 70's was the first one in our family to get a cell phone and she doesn't own a TV or computer.

    Got in my neighbor's new Ecoboost F-150 the other day. Two screens started with exploding boulders and Ford logos.
    Noooooot for me.
