**on a positive note, my exhaust will be here tuesday!
I travel the country for my job and Verizon is the king of reception.
I am currently with sprint, and as soon as the 8 core phones are released, I'm switching to Verizon.

Not sure if I can make it to RNH but I will try. I'll hit you guys up if I can but no guarantees.

Travis, as crappy as those "terms" may be, they've actually been doing that for years now and no other carrier except Sprint offers unlimited data, right? Sprint plain sucks imo, though, so their unlimited data isn't even an incentive.

VZW does have the most coverage but in areas where you don't get signal, you won't get signal with any of the other carriers either. I saw a lot of dead spots with TMo, ATT, and VZW when I was driving between Chicago and Dallas. If you don't travel much, I hear ATT is actually the fastest around DFW.

That being said, VZW is a CDMA network and there are downsides to that, mainly with the lack of options when it comes to choosing a phone for me. Additionally, I hear VZW is going VoLTE very soon (like 2014) and that might start changing things around, and for the worse.

Stupid considering most vehicles have "red" transmission fluid, so stipulating the fluid must be red as an identifying color is moot at this point.

You should still be able to import it yourself from RinkyaYahoo or eBay.ca, blah blah blah.

Travis, Just buy a phone from a deal site for a couple hundred bucks. I couldn't make it without unlimited data.
