I am a UK citizen who recently married a US citizen and we both live in Atlanta, Georgia. I have a work permit and a SSN and am in the process of having my status changed to permanent resident when I will receive my green card. I can't take my Georgia drivers licence test until I have my green card so I am driving on my UK licence, which I can do for 12 months from date of entry into the country. Yesterday, I went into a car dealership and asked to test drive a car. I was told that they couldn't let me do that as I didn't have a Georgia drivers licence and their insurers wouldn't allow it but they took me for a drive around the car park. They then told me that, even if I liked it, that they couldn't sell it to me because I don't have a Georgia drivers licence. They seemed concerned about me getting finance without a green card but I told them that I could pay cash. They still said that they couldn't sell me any car because my drivers licence was needed for them to register it. I told them that my husband could do that and they said that that would be a 'straw purchase' and because they knew that the car would really be for me, that it would be illegal and that they would refuse to sell it to me. I was amazed and I felt like a criminal. My question is: can a UK citizen buy a car in Georgia and get it legally registered with a UK drivers licence? I would greatly appreciate feedback on this as it seems incredible that I cannot buy a car here even though I am legal to drive for another 3-4 months.

I've been thinking about getting a Vespa for a while now. I don't want a big motorcycle, I just want something simple that gets me from Point A to Point B while not burning a ton of gas.

The route I would probably take would be some surface streets (30-40 mph limit) and some highway driving (55-65 mph limit). Do you think a Vespa is "appropriate" for this kind of driving speeds? I am sure I'll hear all kinds of stuff about safety, what are people's opinions on this?

I've read through all their selections on their websites, so I know their specs. I am more interested in hearing people's stories and experiences with their Vespas.

Thanks in advance.

In the manual I got from stainless steel brake corp along with my set of 4 new 4 piston calipers ( don't trip, the kit was only 470 bucks) they say a good method for bleeding the brakes is to use a gravity bleeding methode,, that is "leave all caliper bleed screws open with the rear of the car raised to 15" at the rear axel shafts. Observe each bleeder valve untill fluid begins to flow out, shut off valve as as fliud appears at each valve" that's it. they say this is the recomended method. do you think this will work?

Also, the brakes are constant contact type and I am changing the rotors also with a set from fast corvettes,, they say a run out of over .005 in may cause air in tghe lines,, I have no way of measuring the run out,, do you think it will be ok odr should I have it checked. If so, what is a good national brand shop to take the car to to have it checked?

1997 Dodge Caravan, 194,000 miles. There is a noise that comes
from the drive train when above 40mph. It increases in frequency
as the speed increases. Can't really say which side it's coming from.
No noises when turning sharply (slowly in a parking lot, both directions) , and no boot damage on drive axles.
I think it's the wheel bearing hub but how do I tell for sure without
buying new ones to try replacing. $110 each. I put the van on jack
stands and looked for play in the drive axles, but couldn't detect anything. Suggestions?
