The Delivery Fee on my car is $937 which I think is OUTRAGEOUS!! The sales person said "every one pays this fee" and the fee was already printed on the sales sheet...is that scam or what???? I cant imagine there going to charge me 1000 bux because they drove it from wherever they got it from!

My dad owns his own business, and we share the same vehicle. The problem is, the sign on the back window is large and tacky and when I am driving it, I want to cover it up so I stop getting asked a million questions. (ex. How can that bring in ANY income?) The sign is individual sticker letters and symbols stuck to the outside of the window, so its impossible to take off and put back on. Is there any creative ideas out there or simple solutions to covering this while I have the car?
Thanks :)

I want to buy a used Mazda Miata and it seems the 1997's and 2000's are more wanted than the 1999's. I know they didn't make a 1998. And all models before 1997 have a lower reliability rating so I want to go with either 1997 or newer. Any thoughts? Did the 1997 not have a leather seat option? It seems all the pics I've seen of them have cloth seats. I want leather, all power and I like the tan interiors.

I know, it was positively dumb, but now what do I do? Do I simply drain the oil chamber. It won't start.

Every time I finally start to make good time on a road trip, I run into one of these jackasses. And it takes all of 15 minutes for that truck to pass the other because he's only doing 1mph faster. I travel alot. Almost every other day. I would say, on an average 6 hr trip, this happens at least 8-10 times. Maybe a trucker out there can tell me why that is.

I picked up a 1978 Honda CB400 Automatic a few months ago. And I'm just curious about who else has found automatic motorcycles, what year/make/model, and how you like yours?
I love mine. I just couldn't get 'shifting' and being new it is so great to concentrate on riding and not worry about how to shift.

I bought the car used, and the 1995 car came with a 1996 user's manual. As a result, I do not have accurate fuse diagrams. I have tried a number of the fuses, but have not found any broken. I also do not know which fuse would take care of that function.

my car has been involved in an rear end crash and the insurance company of the other party denies some of the damages , that are actually done because of the accident.

the auto body shop gave me an estimate of 4 to 5 000 $ .
my car doesnot cost that much . the insurance company is offering only 633 $ and disagrees with me to total the car .
there was no damage prior to the accident made to the car on the rear end side.

they argue that the other car that hit me does not have even a dent then how come my car have this much damages.
i know that my car did not had n e damage on the rear before the accidednt.

based on the automobile source they think that the actual cash value of the car is 1900 , and they have didcted all other damges , that are not because of an accident.

please guide me what i should do in this case.

Discovered that oil was splattered on lower engine. Tech said that oil filter was missing and had fallen off. I had oil changed 3200 miles ago. Engine is now frozen. Need new engine?
