I disabled as much Samsung junk as I could... I also stopped using TouchWiz home screen and disabled the lock screen. Now I'm using Google Now launcher / home screen and Cover for a lock screen. Much smoother experience. I also use Google Apps in place of all the Samsung junk. My next phone...

Originally Posted By: Cujet I rent this family of cars regularly. I disagree wholeheartedly with the stated results. Period. Once these cars get a few miles on them, in typical rental use, the true quality really shows. The Sonata is a car I try to avoid, and there is NO WAY, I'd rank it at...

Originally Posted By: lizpat I don't agree with the low place of the Accord though.. I like the Accord a lot. I don't either but to a certain extent, I get it. The Hyundai is very very good. Yes, it's gone bland, but it's still a good vehicle. If I could have my way... it would be a Honda...

I only drove the 2014.5 Camry, not the 2015.... but the Accord's seats are firm but supportive, similar to my Jeep Grand Cherokee. They are soft and springy when going over bumps. I find Toyota seats to be kinda lifeless and supportless.

Originally Posted By: bepperb Reliability and resale not a factor in a midsize sedan... um... ok. Seriously 10% of this test was a category "child seats" where somehow the Malibu gets a 9 and a Chrysler 200 gets a 6. What does that even mean? I don't dispute that the Sonata might be better...

Having just purchased a 2014 Honda Accord Sport, I would say that the Sport is a much better driving vehicle, with better seats and better tires (i.e., quieter in the cabin).... but I agree with the sentiment of there are no duds in this group. I just got an awesome deal this particular model so...

Originally Posted By: kkreit01 Did you rotate regularly? Mine wore very evenly. All measured the same. I only rotated twice within 22K, but I check regularly with a depth gauge. I had OE Forteras on a 2wd V8 Sport Trac. They would have been lucky to make it 30K. You did pretty good. I liked them...

Originally Posted By: kkreit01 So tires are now worn at 5-7/32nds? They better all start coming with >15/32nds then. I agree that you significantly lose traction when they are down to 5-7/32nds, but I wouldn't worry about it unless you see snow. I would have left them for awhile if in TX. I also...

I played it safe and replaced them. I drove the Jeep in the rain yesterday and those Forteras are just awful. When it comes to my wife's life and our family's safety, no compromise. I just didn't realize how bad they were as I don't drive the Jeep as often. Fresh set of Yokohama YK580s. Very...

Originally Posted By: 99Saturn I'm not trying to say you should leave them on until 2/32nds but I would be curious what their logic is - just doesn't add up to me. They did explain the change in policy and the logic for changing it. The tire manufactures have essentially come up with...

Originally Posted By: 99Saturn Is there an explanation given for why they will no longer rotate tires with < 5/32nds? New policy regarding tread depth of the tires on the rear. If any part of the tire is below 5/32nds, they will no longer put them on the rear. It's related to the Michelin...

Originally Posted By: PandaBear go somewhere else that would, that's irrational of a policy that try to force people to buy new tires. Again, nobody is forcing me to buy new tires. They just wouldn't rotate them to the rear. They did a side to side rotation. I could drive on them a little...

Originally Posted By: Jeffs2006EvoIX What do you expect? They want to sell you some tires. Jeff I thought that, until my brother's friend who works there and my brother-in-law's friend who works there both agreed that I would need new tires at some point soon and I shouldn't put those on the...

Originally Posted By: eljefino "New policy"? What's the policy on your receipt for the tires? If it says free rotation for the life of the tire, that's until legal depth. If you wanna fight, and have angry people working on your truck. DIY. These are still the OEM tires on the Jeep. I...

I'm thinking of doing it myself. My brother has a few friends that work there and even he said, yeah, I would just replace them. I know they aren't dishonest guys, hence why I asked, wait or replace now. I have an impact wrench. My Jeep has full time AWD with a low range.

I have two front tires that have 5/32nd on the center sections and 4/32nds on the sides. Discount Tire would not rotate them front to rear as they are no longer allowed to, if the tire has less that 5/32nds on any section of tread, per a new policy. I cannot buy 2 tires as my Jeep has 4WD, so...

Originally Posted By: SteveSRT8 ^^^Beautiful. I love that little car. Glad you like it. Some nicer tires may change your car dramatically. They sure did on mine. Thanks! It's a fun little car, but I miss the sound of my Hemi Jeep. But on road trips, the Jeep can't touch the Dart's MPG...

I owe you all an update. Since I bought the car, I've taken a job at a company that is 55-60 miles round trip, depending on route I take. I am currently averaging 32.5mpg (hand calculated) on Costco premium (mainly) in driving that's heavy towards city, which is a change from the previous style...

Glad that my 06 TL didn't require a trip to the dealer for a reset... And now my 11 Grand Cherokee and 13 Dart don't need a dealer trip... the Dealer trip threat was the sole reason I never replaced the steel wheels and hubcaps on my wife's former 2010 Nissan Rogue. Sounds like some of the...

I'm stuck with it for the Hemi Jeep. The MDS system needs 20WT.
