What is it that causes people to drink and drive? And even more... Why don't the bartenders just take the keys as soon as you walk in the door? Why must they just serve them over and over? My vehicle was wrecked earlier this week because of a drunk driver... Why must they do this?

The neighbor boy is constantly crashing his bike into our vehicles and now my car has huge scratches in the driver's door. We spoke to the parents and they told us to bad. We have to prove it and they refuse to pay for the damages. The Grandmother cussed my husband out. We did not see him but the handle bars match the same height and everything of the scratches. This is the second time this has happened in 1 month. I don't feel I should have to foot the bill for just having my car parked. What do I do with this because it is basically a prove it situation even though we know he is the one that did it?

I live in Philadelphia so the unpredictable of the Northeast is a major factor in my decision. The TL is about 33k while the G35 is 38k. I don't mind paying extra money, I just hear that long-term TL is better buy. I'm afraid that FWD won't be that fun and I'm better off buying a Maxima. I appreciate your help, please let it rip!

I have a Legacy LA1088 4-Channel 2000 Watt Bridgeable Mosfet Amplifier and i'm wondering, if i was going to only hook up 2 subwoofers, how would i go about getting all 2000 watts to those speakers,well not all 2000 but i mean (2X1000 watts per channel?)and if i was going to do that what should the speakers RMS be? well what should the rms be period if i was still only hooking up 2 speakers,is there anyway also to hook up those 2 speakers on all 4 channels? and if so how should i go about seeing what the RMS the speaker should have when i shop.... if you have any information or diagrams that picture hooking up 2 subs on 4 channels, and/or how to hook it up and get all the power of the amp on the 2 channels, that would help, please share! it would be greatly appreciated!

My car was recently totaled (jerk ran a red light) and so I'm shopping around for something cheap but decent. The front runner as of now is:
2003 Saab 9-3 Linear
68,000 miles
Automatic
Clean CarFax record

From this information, do you think this is a good deal at $9,995 list price? And does this model have a good record on maintenance? I can't find much info on Saab's, and that concerns me.

Any help is greatly appreciated!!
