Cars & Transportation - 26 June 2006

I'd like to have a "true" center channel in my truck. My idea is to run a lead from the front left postive (FL+) and one from the FR- from my amp, or wired in parallel with the existing FL and FR speakers. All components are aftermarket. I can, of course, also use a potentiometer to adjust the output of this speaker. I'd like to know if 1), i should run the leads from my amp or in parallel , 2) is this even possible without damaging my components, and 3) what did i miss, what else do i need? (got speakers and wire).

i have been in love with subaru's since highschool (I was a tuba play and needed trunk space), now that I am older and will be graduating college in a couple years, I just want to know what people think about the Subaru Baja-like mpg, reliability, yearly cost, is it an "exotic vehicle" or foreign, quality, crash test, and how is the company doing (will they be around for sometime or go belly up)?

Ok, I have a 97 Chevy Cavalier. Its old and it runs a little rough, but other wise is fine except for when I brake---if I brake too hard, there is a big "thump" noise that happens. And also, it seems the alignment is off, but only when I'm braking. I don't know if I should keep driving on it or get it fixed, because I'm in the process of saving for a new car, so would it be worth it to get it check out? Nobody I ask seems to know what the "thump" noise is. Also, when I turn right, it sounds like something is scraping something down there...anyone have any idea what could be going on?

We are trucking company (with 53" trailer) based on Los Angeles, CA, USA and so far we have two companies that we have a contract(freight carrier), to haul some loads, and we think its not enough because sometimes they don't have any loads on that particular state.

Is there any problem signing up on as much as Companies (brokers / 3PLs) that we want so we can have more resources?

Is there any impact on our insurance since we are adding these companies as additoinal insured?

Your answer(s) will be greatly appreciated.

I am in the market for a car. Frankly I do not know if a lease is for me. I do have to visit clients then and now, so it will be used mainly for work purposes. I need a clear answer on the advantages and disadvantages of a lease vs buying.

I hear a clicking noise when driving, not turning. I saw that the boot is busted and it is leaking grease. Also, please recommend honest, affordable mechanics in Houston, TX.

It's been slowly leaking for awhile now, but today it dumped brown water out like a bucket, when I shut it off facing up hill.

It's a 1988 Chevy Duro Van, with a 305 motor, 2500 series and a 700R4 Transmission. At first it grabs the gears like crazy but then in maybe even less than 5 minutes it won't do anything but act like you have put it in neitral. What would cause this? And what can I do? Please help me!
