Cars & Transportation - 19 August 2006

Ok I'm 19 and still really scared of driving. I want a car that will be reliable and not have too many problems. Which out of these 3 cars is better or if you can reccomend a different one.

Thanks!

Who decides the cost of a ride? Who decides whom to buy fuel from? And does that same person decide whom to buy buses and trains from? What criteria are taken into effect? So many employers value an MBA, but can those with liberal arts degrees succeed in this industry in areas other than customer service? I enjoy trains (commuter mostly) but I just don't know what to do with my interest? Government agencies often baffle me. Can anyone guide me as to how I can proceed? Thanks,

I have a four-year-old Citroen Xsara Picasso. Everything seems to be OK, but a few days ago, the electric rear windows stopped working. What do you think could be wrong?
Thanks

I have a 1987 Caddilac Coupe Deville. The engine is a Goodwrench remanufatured 4100 it has about 16k on it. Regardless of what fuel or octane boosters i use. She still preignites under light acceleration. I've replaced the entire EGR system. I've set the base timing advanced and now back to factory 10btc. I've had a diagnostics computer hooks up and the only thing that was out of specs was the cell was dead. I understand that this is a 9 volt battery in a box under the dash. Is this true? Would it help to find it and replace it. It's like the space shuttle under the noise covers. Advice?

I was recently in a car where the driver was speeding. We got pulled over, and unfortunately (and very stupidly, I admit) we had an opened beer bottle in teh car. It was on my side of the car, so I got the ticket. The ticket written states that I "did operate a motor vehicle..." and "committed the following infractions..." and she wrote Open Container. The thing is, I wasn't driving. Is this correct, or did she write the ticket wrong? Also, she told me it was a non-moving violation so wouldn't affect my insurance, but she checked "Traffic" on the top, and the ticket says if guilty it will go on my driving record. What exactly does all this mean? And if it does go on my record, how long does it take? Do I have to pay for the ticket first? Gosh what an idiotic mess!

I have a 67 Ford with a 390 the old girl has sit for 10 years without being started. I changed the oil and fuel after a while she started. But, smokes bad, I mean blue LA smog stuff. When it was parked She didn't smoke at all. I think it's a collaped ring but, I'd like to try some engine cleaners and or solvents before I give up and rebuild the motor. Anyone have any suggestions?

I was surprised when I just test drove a tiptronic boxster & I expected to sort of be blown away in the start up (from stop) you know, (I had just driven a bmw 330 last week & it was so peppy )
and it was kind of very even and not exciting at all!

What do you think of the automatic boxsters? Isn't it a little sacrilige? My sister will be driving this car when I'm out of town & she insists she wants automatic, but I have my reservations.

Are they harder or more expensive to maintain? Are they more or less reliable than the manual?

thank you & hope you are having a nice wkend.
