I've started trying to clean up the unneeded bloat. So far, I've disabled IMDB and VZ Navigator as really obvious stuff I don't need. What all do you disable?
I actually like messages +. Syncs with same app on my Nexus 7 and the messages page on the Verizon website. Enables synced SMS everywhere.
Good to know, thanks! I've been enjoying Google Hangouts. I steer clear of most Verizon apps as a personal preference, but I might check it out.

Call My Droid is an integral part of Moto Voice. If you can't find your phone you can shout "OK Google (or whatever phrase you chose), call my droid" and the phone will ring with a high pitched tone so you can find it.

Ah, okay, I guess I'll enable that again. Although I'm pretty good at knowing where I put my phone last... I s'pose you never know when that feature could come in handy.
I never will have to use it...

Obviously. Your Turbo is anatomically mounted...

I disabled 29 apps, including everything from verizon, some moto stuff, the stock calendar app, and the stock email app.
All the Amazon apps. They are speed and battery drains. I also disable the Pinyin, Korean and Hindi language apps as they have caused many problems on my last phone. Here is a pic of the rest, sorry it's so dark I was still in bed when I took this pic and I use a screen dimmer for my sensitive eyes.

They still take up ROM space, but the updates are removed from RAM, which saves a bit of space.When you disable these apps, what happens to them and does it take up space?

I mean, wow!!! That's a lot of apps that many of us will not use. Unnecessary space being taken, in my opinion.
