8. All About the NET

   I found the reading on the sample test pretty straightforward and easy. On the actual test, it was less straightforward. I'd have to decide between 2 answers that seemed right to me. There's 30 questions on the actual reading test if I'm rememberi...

14. OT: RAV4 or CRV for Colorado Winters?

    GizmosMom replied to MovingRN's topic in Colorado

    I don't have any personal experience with the CRV, but we've had our '88 Toyota 4-wheel drive since it was new. I would think a RAV4 would be just as reliable - just saying because our Toyota has been so good. I know there are plenty of people in C...
