Hi All, I've been recently looking for tires (size 205-70-15) and I am finding among the retailers that for the mileage I'm looking for (80K) and the UTQGS ratings (treadwear 700, traction A, Temp B) that the prices are virtually identical. The biggest difference is pricing for the road hazard...

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drives/Comparos/articleId=124091 I agree that the Accord is still the gold standard, hard to beat in the midsize group. The new GM Hydramatic 6T/6L series is a very good transmission, but Malibu's ergonomics need a few iterations, like the way of Cadillac CTS....

I don't think this is a loan, is it? It is giving Toyota the money to pay these workers wages for 7 or 8 years, from the taxpayer and workers themselves. This is what has to stop. http://www.leadercall.com/opinion/local_story_062191838.html/resources_printstory The strange thing is we will...

"In the latest crash figures available from 2003, provided by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, there were 142 fatalities per million registered vehicles for the smallest cars. That figure drops to 108 fatalities for the next larger class of cars. For large sedans, that number drops...

The current edition of "Car and Driver" (magazine) has an interesting article about the dark side of the hybrids on page 26. The date on the cover is September 2005. If you own a hybrid vehicle or plan to buy a hybrid vehicle, I advise you to buy a copy of the magazine and read the...

I got a new 2010 CR-V and wife asked me how to break it in properly. What is the proper way? I don't care what the manual says. What do you guys feel is the best mileage to do the first oil change? I normally change my oil and filter around 3500 miles on my other cars with no synthetic.

Hi there. I have been looking at the new Honda Civic, it's pretty sweet, and the welds and everything are as nice as anything I have ever seen. I just have a question about the "Drive by wire" system that they are supposed to have. What happens if the Engine dies on you? In my current car, my...

If all Americans bought American cars, the US economy would be rockin and rollin right now. Don't give me that stuff about Toyota and Honda manufacturing over here either. GM employs 130,000 in the United States. Toyota employs 30,000, Honda less than that. Most of the import jobs are just blue...

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23124844/ GM just made it known that they lost 39 billion in 2007, the largest ever annual loss for a US automaker. The big three are losing money, and if we don't give them the support they need, they are going to go under. Consider buying an American car. Here are...
