Ok...mabye I can help a little. I've been a professional cert dealership auto technician for over ten years. The steering wheel SHOULD be centered. If it is not, have it re-done. Yes, there is road crown to consider, but any knowledgeable shop knows how to compensate for this in your area. For ...

I would start by trying the hot soapy water followed by a quality lube -I use both Break Free CLP or Militec-1. Depending on what the"goo" is, you might try GooGone...avail at places like WalMart, it removes stuff like stickers,oil, tree sap, glue, grease, etc. It is even safe enough to use on ...

:spyder: 's are not even in the same class in my opinion. However, I do own a CRKT, Mt. Whitney, and have used it at work for years. I don't really care for the materials, but it has proven reliable and solid. No warranty claims and no breakage, no corrosion to date. I can't really complain about it ...

I've been using Firefox for a long time now and really like it. I switched mainly for the security and havn't had any problems with pop ups or anything else for that matter. I know Mozilla is working on a newer version, but I havn't read up on it yet.

I'm faced with a similar situation...one of my best friends is going over, but he's in the service...he'll be gone for a year and a half. I was thinking of getting him something as well, perhaps a black bladed CE Military.

I really love my Cricket....I just drop it in my pocket and go. Very sheeple freindly, too. I usually get..."aww that's cute" which turns into a "Man, that's cool!" when they witness the carnage and aftermath! It really is a great cutter. I cannot compare it to the Meerkat, since I've never used one.
