I am wondering what kind of classic car would be easy to find, easy to repair, and is meant for daily use. I want fins, but I don't want to be driving around a show car.

I have a light truck (2001 nissa frontier) the original tire is a P255/65R16, but I will be putting a P255/70R16 size tire. That isnt much of a difference but will it do anything to the handeling or something on the vehicle

if you went 20 over the normal highway speed limit or 10-15 over an urban speed limit, how much time do you save?

say that your trip was about 50 miles away on a highway, how much time do you save by being more dangerous?

do you speed?
how much time do you think you save?

i'm about to drive soon, and most of my friends speed and stuff,
but does that save vital time?
i guess it does if it was an emergency, but how much?

and how much more gas do you use as opposed to the normal speed limit?

this is for a 99 explorer, the volt gauge comes on when ever i give it gas, the battery light has been coming on when i kick down into a lower gear, but the problem is getting worse now the headlights are going dim when i pass somebody or when there is a load on the engine.

So i decided to get my A/C system checked today and it seems they found $500 worth of problems. I haven't noticed any change in my AC's performance lately though. I drive a 2000 Nissan Xterra thats never had much work done except for the usual oil change, alignment and so on... 103k miles.

The list is below but from what i recall the guy saying, one leak is where they connect their instruments to my car and the other leak affects the suction... my freon tank usually holds 1.5 lbs or somehting and i'm currently at 0.75 lbs.

my question is, are all these repairs necessary? will my car get messed up somehow if i don't fork over the cash immediately since AC is only going to be used minimally from now to next summer anyways? If it is necessary work, is the cost about right or am i being ripped off? Please help!

low side manifold hose (leak) $249
high side schraeder (maint) $37
receiver drier (maint) $136
evac/recharge $75
+ TAX!!

Would a mid 1980's Ford Mustang w/3.8 Liter V6 be a reliable car to own if you just want a car that can get you from point A to B and it would be reliable enough to travel from town to town if you're not expecting alot of power/performance?

I'm tired of seeing it and hearing it. Seems like I can't go 5 minutes and he's either on the TV, radio, or advertising billboard. How much money is Geico spending on ads? Obviously, they don't need to make any more money off of me.
