Cars & Transportation - 9 March 2007

I bought a Pontiac (BIG MISTAKE), and the car has been in the shop 5 times. It had to be towed back to the dealer's the day after I got it. I had to replace the brakes at only 26,000 miles. GM's products are really inferior. The UAW seems to consist of 57 year olds who cant write a complete sentence and 19 year old drug addicts. No wonder their autos are so lousy.

Most bikes that I look up have close to 11:1 compression ratios, yet they can still use 87RON petrol. My car has 10:1 and the manufacturer recommends 91 at least, 96 at most.
Why can bikes have that high CR and still be comfortable with regular fuel, while car engines will knock?

I have a 1985 honda 250 es big red with a oil leak at the cam caps . They look like they unscrew from the outside so you could maybe replace some sort of o-ring behind them. They are located on top of the engine on the end of the cams. Does anyone know how to repair these leaks ,Thanks

I have a 4WD 95 Ford Explorer that makes a sqeaky springy sound over even the smallest bumps. It squeaks when I move the steering wheel stopped or in motion and I believe that the ball joints are bad. I would like to know if I need to replace both the upper and lower or just the lower. My truck is very rusted underneath it appears to have been a beach truck. Also if anyone could tell me about how much this would cost or any other possible solutions I would appreciate it very much.

If you own both homes and they are in 2 different states are you allowed to have your cars registered in your primary home state or can you get it registered in the other , which is alot cheaper insurance wise? Is there a rule on this?

Most of the world's problems could be vanquished if there were no big trucks on the road. Will they ever finally be outlawed, as they should?

I just recently got a warrant for missing my court date, it was for driving without a license...and I purchased a new vehicle which I would have to get full coverage insurance on. Will that warrant just affect the price or will they not allow me to get insurance at all??

I would like buy my first boat, and I don't know a thing about boatting, I don't even know how to fish! :)
I went to my local Mariner here in TN and the sales person told me that if I want to have my wife and 3 kids, and to pull one adult skier I would need to buy a 18 footer with 190 HP 4.3 engine V6 or I would not have enought power to do the job.
Is it true or is he just trying to sell me his $15,000 boat?!
I would like to spend up to $10,000 can you guys give me so ideas about it?!
Thanks in advance for your answer!
David
