In the english language, when we say someone's name, we say John Smith. The first name is the "model" of the person, the last name is the "make". But for cars, we reverse it - we say the make first, then the model (Ford Mustang). Technically, wouldn't logic tell us to say Mustang Ford instead? We don't say Smith John? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think in Japan they do say the last name first.

Involved in an accident where a DUI driver rear ended me. Insurance offered my lawyer 25000 settlement. Is this a good amount? My lawyer stated that this is the max of the insured drivers dad's policy. Any help in this decision is appreciated.

The head was rebult before I knew where the leak was, should I sell the motor for parts or put block sealer in it? If the sealer dosn't work then I'am wasting the rebuild cost on the head. Obviously I'am on a tight budget. The motor is an inline 4(ford 460 cut in half)175hp. This is a closed system with radiator. Put a chevy 305 in it?, will need modifications though.

I started a new job in Griifin. I live in Rex. I've been taking 675 to 75 south to exit 218 which is GA 20. I take GA 20 to 1941, that's where I hit the morning traffic. 75 south to GA 20 is fine, I'm looking for a back route from GA 20 to the Griffin County Jail. Or if someone knows a totally different route that will cut back on time and miles I'd appreciate it. I hope someone out the can help me. By the way I'm leaving from Rex Road in Rex Georgia, which intersects with SR 42 right by I 675

I have a 97Jeep Grand Cherokee and I have figured out by codes that I have to change it out. I can get to the part but I cannot figure out how to loosen the bolt that holds the sensor in place. It is stuck fast on there. Any ideas on how to get that bolt loose?

I have an 88 Ford Bronco 2 4x4 2.9L V6 with a rebuild engine and transmission. This problem started in the summer while on the highway I notice that at first the gas pedle felt loose then the engine light went on and I lost accleration. At first I when I tried to get it to start it would turn over but would die. But it started up the next day and didn't have a problem until it happened again. I replaced the ignition modular, gave it a tune up, replaced the battery, and replaced the fuel pump in the gas tank. The problem still persists and to make it worst its intermittent which makes it difficult to find.

I was wondering if it could be the computer for the truck and how I could troubleshoot it.

Thank for any help.

I have always dreamed of having a convertible and I am seriously looking at buying one in 2007. I live in south Texas so cold weather is not an issue. For those of you have convertibles what do you not like about owning one?

I want to attach a steel hood scoop to what has turned out to be an aluminum hood. I heard there were non-ferrous strips that would link the two without allowing interaction. No idea if this is true or where to get them if it is....?!
