I need to buy a vehicle but I am not sure if I should go with 48 month loan or 60 month. The loan amount would be around $15000. Either way, I like to add extra money each month to go to the principal whenever I can. What do you think?

I live in a small town where the train goes through the main intersection. There are barrier beams and signal lights and bells at this intersection, so no cars can get around when a train is coming. But the train still sounds the horn when it comes through. Is this neccesary? I can understand the need to do it at uncontrolled intersections.

And why are they SO loud, even when they've passed? The trains that come through our town still sound the horns after they have passed, and sound just as loud going as they do coming! Can they have "directional" horns where most of the sound is projected forwards?

I need to buy a new vehicle soon. But I am not a good negotiator and I get nervous just stepping in the car dealer lots. I feel they try to get the most money from me. What is your tip on buying a car? the absolute must do and must not do. I browsed some websites on tips but I like to know the real tips from real people. I am thinking a trading my old vehicle too. But not sure if I should or try to sell on my own. What do you think? Thanks a bunch.

A British man on a motorcycle hit speeds of up to 240 kph trying to flee German police on a 20-km chase on a motorway before being stopped in a rush hour traffic jam near Frankfurt, police said on Thursday.

Police in the western town of Darmstadt said the 42-year-old Briton had evaded officers chasing him by weaving between other cars and hitting speeds well over the 100-kph limit.
"But he could not shake the officers in pursuit," a police spokesman said. Even though there are no speed limits on parts of German motorways, many sections do have strict limits.

The man was arrested after he got caught in a traffic jam near.

My question is this: Where do you find out about races like this?

We're looking to get a new car, and we're really interested in buying a hybrid. The Mariner seems to be priced right, and I like what I'm hearing out of Ford.

I can not find the oil filter on my Rebel. Does it even have one? It's not in the manual.

I purchased a new 2006 Honda Rebel a couple of months ago and decided to change the oil at 250 miles because I was told that a new engine will have metal shavings in the oil. So I changed it and did see the tiny specks of metal.
So then I spoke to another person about it and was told that this was NOT normal and to take it back to the dealer.
Now I don't know what to think. Does anyone know for sure??

This happens @45KM/hr and above speeds, as well the vehicle jumps in a rythamic fasion even on a perfect flat road. I couldn't get much help from bike machanic. He asked me to maintain correct tyre pressure (30psi rear - 20 psi front). but still i get the same jump while ride. Is there something to be done on the engine side? or a Weighted handle bar would reduce vibration? pls help! Thanks in Advance.
