I use my phone to " TALK " as long as it does that all is good. Do you want to flirt with girls on the phone, or update your truck?

You will have to spend extra $ for all the apps for your new phone money ahead on the turbo upgrade

I agree on the turbo.. The phone will become old and ancient before the turbo does..

My "smartphone" is as dumb as a bag of rocks and is so overwhelmed it can hardly make a decent call half the time. Keep the phone upgrade the turbo, its a no brainer! I'm sure the turbo see's more use then the phone.

I had a smart phone with a touch screen that didn't like to touch. Go with the turbo upgrade. Maybe tell me where your getting your upgrade so I can follow your lead?

I love my smart phone and am glad for it every day. I can keep an eye on my investments, do my banking, bring up an instant map when ever I'm lost, look up a word I don't know, waste time here on DTR when I should be working, make notes or shopping lists, and a thousand other things to make my life easier. Oh yeah, I think I can call people too.

My turbo still works good so I'll let it be for a while.

Smart phones are nice and I like mine. I can use it for many things like navigation and to get on here whenever I have a question or truck emergency. But really I think you can get by without a smart phone or you can find them pretty cheap on ebay or amazon sometimes if ya really need one. Id say compressor upgrade because it will last and will bring more joy than a phone. Like others said these phones change everyday and they definately wont last that long

I think that's a contradiction, NO time is wasted here on DTR!
Oh, and I say go with the compressor Justin! (C'mon, you're asking on a truck website, what'd you expect?! )

I didn't vote, because there is no choice for putting it into savings. Consider this a write in vote ...Mark
