I have a 1966 mustang with a automatic transmision and v8 engine. my question is: why does my car only shift once from standing still. I am only able to go about 40 mph at high rpm and the car wont shift? I want to go faster but the trans wont shift and the engine is in high rpm.its like that's the top speed of the car. I want to know if anybody knows why?

Everyday someone makes me REALLY mad when im driving! I am pretty psycho about it too! If someone is in the fast land going the speed limit I get pissed and pass them when I can and the try to cut them off. Sometimes people will start stuff and when I get back at them I will SLAM my brakes on so they will almost hit me and they get scared and back off! Today I got in a screaming match with some lady and her husband when we were at a stop light! I bet people have called the cops on me so many times! Do the cops keep track of those types of calls even though they cant prove anything? Is annyone else as psycho of a driver as me???? I think i need help....

While driving along, I attempt to speed up and notice that the car won't accelerate. The engine slows down and then shuts off. I have to turn off the ignition and then restart the car. I recently had a rebuilt transmission and a rebuilt computer installed. I have taken the car to two different mechanics and they indicate since it is an intermitent problem and it is not producing a code they have no idea what it could be. It seems to occur in stop and drive traffic. I happened to me three times last night. It scares me to drive the car but I have no choice. Any suggestions????

I am thinking about getting a 1007 Nissan Quest for our new family car. Currently I have a 2000 Nissan Maxima, but it dues not have the room we need. My husband is 6'6" tall and our little girl is going to be tall like him, I can just see it. She is taller then 3 year olds and she just hit 2 years old! So we need something with more room for us as well as a 2nd baby that we plan to have in about another year. And need to have the room for our 2 Large dogs as well if we ever have to bring them with us.
Any way. I am looking to get some input on the 2007 Nissan Quests.. From people who have driven them for more then a week. I like how they look and from what I can tell from my short little test ride in one, that it seems to have a good ride and handeling. But I would like to get someones input who has had one for at least a week if not more. Is it a good buy etc..... All help would be great! Since we needs something good that will last us for 10+ years.

My neighbour is doing some handyman work on his property and he left a ladder on my property. I backed my car and drove it on a ladder he left on my property.

What are the legal implication. Should handyman insurance pay for damages. I called my car isurance and they it will be my fault as I should have seen what is in the back of car. But isn't that he should not have left his ladder on my property. It is his mistake?

I like old school muscle cars from the late 60's and early 70's but I'm kinda fond of the imports, mostly european, some japanese from the mid to late 90's. What would you chose to work on. Price is limited to 25 large for the car itself... perferably less. Which car would you chose? Why?

I got a thing for the BMW M3... 97-99 mostly... I love the square/rectangle look with hard lines... not a big fan of all the rounded edges they are comming out with now.

How much money would you be willing to put into that car you purchased? What would you do to it?

I just went and test-drove a CO6 and Rubbermaid was contracted to fabricate the dash/mouldings, and the leather for the seats was made from cows that died of mad-cow disease; at least thats the way it looks and smells. YUCK!

The black boxes record speed, direction, braking, etc when you have an accident.

Tried Advanced Auto and PepBoys. No luck. The only places I can find are online and I need my car before next week. I have researched up on the best alternatives (probably Optima & Odyssey) and they are just too expensive.

Also would like to buy this locally for the piece of mind of being able to replace it immediately.
