My boyfriend is planning to get one.. but I'm afraid for his life! Isn't riding a motorcycle dangerous? He really really really.. wants one (haha) and I don't want to be a bad girlfriend and stop his dream of having one. So what should I do? Can you guys tell me what you think about motorcycles.. the pro and cons?

This was an incident happened on last Saturday, 19 May 2007 @ 9:15 am. when I was on my way from Sunway SPK to LDP. A driver with his van WJR1755 sped very fast and unpatiently making his "hon" to many vehicles that were driving out to LDP. All of us, need to queque to go out to LDP as there are 2 lanes going into ONE lane towards LDP. The van was the 3rd vehicle but he was so unpatient wanted to overcut my car (the second car) and the first car.

Notwithstanding, the worst part was when all of us finally at LDP, he made his "hon" again and turning his wheel "making fool" like wanted to knock on my car. I managed to see there was another guy in the van, laughing together with the driver when he did that on me.

The van was having a pciture of a "hand print" and with 2 big words "EX". Hope if anyone knows this Company or vehicle, kindly let me know as I would like to bring this up to the Company's Management Team of this reckless driver. Thank you so much!

I have a '63 Ford Fairlane and I want to use the original radio but it doesn't seem to be working.
We've replaced a few capacitors but what I really need is a schematic.
Anybody know specifically what kind of radio it would be and where I could get the schematics?

I own a 1992 Volvo 240 sedan with 200,000 miles. What is the best muffler/exhaust system I can use (pipes and all components after the catalytic) that will last a long time (i.e., won't rust quickly)? Also, what is the approximate cost of such a system (minus labor)? Thanks a million.

My husband and are going to buy me a new car later this summer. Currently I have a 1996 Cavalier 2 door, which the tranmission is going out in. We are looking for a smaller 4 door car that gets good gas mileage and is in the $8,000 range, used. This car would have to last 3-4 years at least and should be a good family car. Which make/model would you suggest and why?

Up until last week I was using only unleaded 91 octane Premium (10% ethanol). Then I had a brainstorm. I usually pump 3.5 gals per fill-up. If figured, of that, at least a 1/2 gallon of it (left over in the common hose) was whatever grade the last person filled with (usually 87 regular). I switched over to using 87 (which, btw, the owner's manual recommends on a V-Star). I have not seen or felt any difference in performance, other then "perhaps" having to keep the choke open for 15 or 20 secs longer when starting a cold engine.

I had the carbs rejetted when 91 octane was in the tank.

If I plan to continue to use 87 Octane, do you think I need to adjust the needle settings?

With all the losses that GM Ford And Dodge have taken they seem to drop the prices on their vehicles why cant they make it a bit easier for a first time buyer to acquire a truck car or someone with BAD credit or worse no credit score because there millions of people who would like a new relaible vehicle.

My car's alignment recently got worse, I didn't hit anything or bump any curbs, so I'm wonder what could have caused it to get worse, how bad is it for the car, and how much does it usually cost to fix it?

I was riding with some friends and they were going around corners that still have a fair amount of winter gravel on the street. I was slowing down in the corners and trying to catch up on the straights. I can not bring myself to carve a sharp fast corner unless the corner is clean. Am I being too cautious or should I just give it gas and hope it grabs?

The car most of the time drives well. but recently it takes a long time to catch speed and it makes the car ride feel really bumpy and not smooth. It jerks forward and what not to catch up to speed What can it be? Thanks. It's a 1988 cadillac deville with Auto Tranny.

This is so confusing. Basically I found a car that I like. The person is from NY but has the car parked in NJ (where he works). So tomorrow I am supposed to pay him and take the car away but I was confused on how that works.
Would i get in trouble if I drive the car off with no plates. How can i get the plates. I would need to first drive it to the MVC.
How does that work?
Do I have to first take the guy with me to motor vehicle to transfer title.
He told me after I pay him he would give me the title.
Again, I am just confused on how all of this will work...especailly me being able to drive it away.
any help is appreciated.
