I travel between York and Norwich quite often and EVERYTIME there is a delay between Norwich and Peterborough, one way or another, sometimes involving changes at Ely.. It's very annoying because then I often miss my connecting trains from Peterborough and York! Does anyone know why it happens so much around that area, what I can do to help plan my journey better, or if it's just the English rail system?

now i am considering to use proper screen washer fluid instead, after knowing that it's not recommended to use plain water as the proper fluid works better. now my question is: can i pour screen washer fluid into the tank as there is already fair amount of water left in the tank? if i mix them together, will it affect the way the car works?

Some people say it's your birthday, some say it's the end of the month. Since it only has a month\year on the sticker does that mean you really have till the end of the month? You wouldn't get pulled over right?

I'm trying to pick out a decent wheel for my car but keep coming across wheels that are discounted and noted as hyper black.

All the pictures that are black show a black rim but the hyper black pictures looks silver. I don't want a black rim but the pictures of the hyper black rims look nice.

I was at a party and I was asked to give an intoxicated man a ride home cause we lived fairly close to one another. I agreed but while driving him home I was cited for speed contest (streetracing) and later resolved that issue. The state then sent me a letter requesting proof of my auto insurance and that if I could not prove it my license would be suspended. I sent them my information and they told me they would need it for the car I was driving. My insurance will cover me driving another car, but that was not good enough. I told the state I was in a strangers car and they would not give me any information so that i can find the intoxicated person who owned the car. What can I do so I don't loose my license?

'02 Ram with 78k miles. Engine at idle surges to about 1100 rpm without any driver input. Happens in "park" "drive" and "reverse" with and without the AC running. It is more noticeable with the AC running but happens either way. The problem is if your foot is not on the brake securely, it will lurch forward. Not good. Any Ideas???

When I shut down the car, the gps plugged into the cigarette lighter does not power off, even with the truck totally off. I assume this will drain the battery. Is there anyway to make the power source shut off when I shut the truck down? I really don't want to have to unplug the gps every time I shut the engine off.

Thanks

I never had insurance before and am getting insurance from one company for a month and then switching. Does that look bad on some kind of record (meaning it will affect my rates in the future?)?

Okay here it goes: I had a jeep for only 6months that I purchased new. I then in May 2006 bought a Toyota Solara with $3,000 negative equity attached to that car. NOW, I'm at it again. I have my eyes on a 2007 Mustang, and I want that car!!! I know if I get it, there will be more negative equity attached to this car. I know that the rebate will help some, but not by much. What are my options here? Is there any way I can get this car without my payments going up anymore? OR am I stuck?!

Would you buy a used car with 150+ miles?

Im getting my permit next summer and i'm trying to get an idea on a nice car but not expensive. Around 3-4 grand.

I was looking at some grand prix's and the bodys are in excellent condition but have high mileage. They look super clean though. Would you buy a car with that many miles?

Any other suggestions on cars? Not just "get a honda or toyota" I want the model of the car also lol..
