I used to buy tires from TireRack - now SimpleTire (how can they do it?) by
Jonas Schneider
For years, I have been buying tires from TireRack, opting to mount them and
static balance them myself at home.
This week, I called TireRack, to order a set of four passenger tires, where
I picked a traction A, temperature A, and treadwear 400 tire, with load
range 99 and speed W, where the price,...

Came to a screeching halt at a Honda dealer today. Now, they had quite a
selection of $32-36,000 Crosstours there, but what caught my eye was

G85 Fuel by
PolicySpy[_3_]
The EPA is considering 15% ethanol in gasoline up from 10% ethanol for
car years 2007 and newer...
Well, ethanol is corrosive, has less octane than gasoline, gets less
fuel mileage than gasoline, and likely would only be an efficient fuel
in an engine with a different operating temperature than...

Camry door frame weatherstrips by
Built_Well
Is it okay to use the general Armor All spray on the door frame
weatherstrips of a 2006 Camry? I've used the product on the
dashboard and plastic pieces, but never on the weatherstripping,
which is that black rubber-looking stuff tracing the edges of
the doors so rain doesn't get in.
Is...

New thread on 'Top Tier' gasoline... by
Hachiroku $B%O%A%m%/(B[_2_]
Just an observation. When I use gasolines listed as being 'Top Tier' gas,
the mileage goes DOWN in my Supra, Scion tC and a Chrysler LHS I had a
year ago.
I usually use Gulf oil ,since they are local and usually less $$$ than the
others in my area. I have always gotten decent MPG with Gulf.

Auto Paint Query by
Mercellus Bohren
I decided to do some touch-up painting on my car where the road
pebbles had dinged the paint on the hood in the front near the
headlight. I ordered the correct touch-up paint based on the paint
color number. I guess I got a little overzealous in my usage, because
now I have a pretty funny looking...

Brake rotors already grooving by
[email protected]
Less than one month ago, I replaced pads and rotors on all
four wheels. I've noticed that the front rotors already have
lots of grooves. I was careful not letting the new pads get
dirt or grit on them when installing, and everything was nice
and clean, as far as I can tell.
These grooves are not...

Should I buy a Prius? by
Henry
I am thinking about buying a Prius.
I know that it doesn't pencil out dollarwise, but it would be nice to be
able to use the carpool lane (I am in CA).
Anyone want to save me from bad decision?
Another question: Are HID headlights worth it the bux, compared to
modern halogens? I am middle aged...

12 volt car heater/defroster that works? by
psongman
HI, I thought I would ask the knowing if there is a decent 12 volt
heater/defroster that I can get for my Escort. The heater core went
and they did the bypass thing as I couldn't afford the heater core
replacement, whew, like $700. So, I have been checking into this
alternative but most reviewers...

My 1991 Plymouth Sundance RS 2.5 TBI w/ 198,000 miles on it had a blown
