Is "Ford Stampede" a good name for a large full sized pickup I'm designing?

The Ford Stampede is a large pickup, seating up to 6 adults, a little bigger than the F-350, It has many desirable standard features, which I will mention in additional details later. It has a 12-foot bed, and can still seat 6 large adults comfortably in the cabin with ample leg room. It will feature chrome wheels with the classic Ford logo.

How do you replace a starter in a 1996 Subaru Legacy Outback?

When we try to start the car, it makes a clicking sound. The lights and everything work fine, so the battery is in good shape. I just need to know how to install the starter...and by the way, it couldn't be anything else, could it?

1985 GMC Van flywheel bolt is stripped. We cannot get any leverage on the damn thing!?

We are trying to get this damn bolt off. It started off as an 11/16th bolt. But we slowly stripped it attempting to get it off. The flywheel has broken and left a middle ring with the bolts. We got 5 of the 6 bolts off and cannot get the last one. Are there any ideas in getting a stripped bolt off from a tight area? There is probably 1 1/2 in of space to work!

Why are roads black with white stripes?

All roads are the same does this mean countries have copied of each other?

Why not yellow with black stripes or white with black stripes, there would be more light at night. Just think when snow falls and besides the ice that comes with it you can see better. Makes sense to me.

Am I able to drive my roomates company vehicle if I dont work for that company?

My roomate/friend asked me to drive his company truck out of state with a trailer to pick up some furniture 800 miles away. He tried to explain to me that his company allowed other people to drive the company vehicle other than him, but I just dont agree with him and believe that I will not be covered by his insurance nor mine if something were to happen.
