Both are said to be dangerous, but curious who historically has seen the greater risk, drivers or hitchhikers. I imagine the numbers are already out there. Does anybody know?

I have an 1987 Toronado. She is a beauty and in great shape, yet I always come accross a problem. When I start it up in the morning, it'll fire up but die moments later. I've tried idling for 3-4 minutes, yet it'll either lose the charge in between, or lose its charge when I take it out of the park position. My battery seems fine, and it doesn't die once I get it going good. I can feel it lose its charge, and I press on the gas all the way and give it enough juice to keep it going. So, anybody know what the problem could be?

I have a 98 suzuki bandit 1200 that somehow got flooded out with gas in the winter, so i got it fixed and all was well. Now just last week i got my bike on the road for the first day, rode it around for about 3 hours and it was ok, i parked it at work and about 4 hours later when i was about to start it the motor would crank and then just stop. so i finally got my bike started and the choke was not working the mechanism was fine it just wasent bringing up the revs, so i drove it home and parked it. the next morning i go in my garage and there is gas everywhere. this is the second time this has happened to me my bike is flooded with gas the airbox, the crank, everything. what should i do
thanks

I've been car shopping and these people give me a headache; is this unusual?

The noise starts at about 60 mph. I have already tried changing the half shaft and wheel bearing and the noise is still there. Rotating the tires have also been tried. It definitely seems to be coming from the driver's side. Could this be a transmission noise? Thank you!

when the airbag pops out of the steering wheel, does the cover fold down, up, or just pop off? thanks

My parked car got hit and other party took responsibility. I want to get it fixed. If I pay for it body shops charge $3k. If insurance pays for it the body shops will "milk" the insurance company and charge around $5k, that's fine with me. But, I'd like a piece of the action. Do body shops usually do this if asked?

Well I just received my permit and soon I will be going out to the empty parking lot with the teacher to begin my driving. I need as many tips as possible, from starting the car to moving it. Totally newbie driver I am, and I don't want to go out there and be and look totally clueless, so ANY tips would help!

Thanks!

i'd like to eventually get some new wheels and tires for my wife's 98 sidekick, but i don't want to get wheels that are offset in such a way that they make the tires rub. i'd like to get wider tires, like maybe 10.50" to give it a wider stance and to try to reduce the risk of a rollover.

I have a 2001 blazer X with a built 4.3l and a supercharger. I have had several problems w/ this truck even before modifuications started. Stalling mysteriously, dash lights comming and going, lights brightning and dimming, unusual wiper behavior, ecessive voltage drop from a simple turn signal. My currnent problem is now when accelerating. The vehical innitially accelerates hard then suddenly falls on its face. It has been built and tuned by a prfessional and has run strong in the past. I no longer have accesss to the shop where it was built as I now live 5 hours away in Mooresville NC. I've taken the truck to race shops in town but they have not been able to help or explain. The truck has not been tampred with since last tune and I have no engine light or codes.
