I have an old Renault Twingo and every morning it's covered in condensation on the outside. When I get in it also steams up inside and remains so for 5-10 minutes, even if I turn on the heating full blast and open the windows. (It doesn't have air con.) Is there anything I can do to reduce this problem?

What on earth are the government thinking about?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7046200.stm

The reason why there are pedestrian deaths on the roads is overwhelmingly as a result of stupid pedestrians stepping into the roads and getting hit by cars.
The solution to this is not to force car drivers to slow down but to educate pedestrians to stay on the pavement!

What's next? A return to having a bloke with a red flag walking in front of every vehicle, and driving with your handbrake on at all times.

Idiots!

You are going on 90km/h. Do you sway to avoid hitting the dog but get into an accident yourself. Or would you just go ahead and hit the dog and drive away?

i purchased a vehicle from a dealership and my understanding was that the vehicle price was not negotiable.I'm still under the 5 day return policy and i found out that the NADA value of that vehicle is less than what i paid for the vehicle,even though the price the vehicle had on the sticker stated it was the book value.I've already signed the contract and still under the 5 day return policey. If possible i would like to see if i can get the price more closer to what the NADA value is.Do i have an option to negotiate the price or is it a done deal since i've already signed the contract?Or what options do i have in this matter?I still love my vehicle,but i'm just curious

I have a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner (383 with matching numbers) and am curious as to its value. The car is in good condition and has been taken well care of. It's not a show car and was a daily driver during the summer for the past 20 years.

I got this bike and like it but I really would rather have my feet under me instead of out front. Yeah, it's a cruiser, but I've seen pix of older Shadows with the foot pegs that are in the "normal" position.

This bike is the first one I've ever owned that has working rear view mirrors- you can see what's behind you. All the other bikes I've ever owned only showed me a buzzy blurred image. In order to keep this bike, I think I'm gonna need a kit to convert the shifter and brakes to what I think of as "normal." Who's done this? Know where I can look for the parts to make the conversion?

My wife swapped radios and gave me the one from her 2002 PT cruiser. I need the connector for the back of the radio that has power, ground and speaker wires. Where can I go to find the connector and what each color wire means?

I'm a 5'2" 95lb lb female and I really want to buy a sports motorcycle. (I think thats what they're called) I tried out my friend's bike (600? 1,000?cc) one, and I could barely reach the floor, and couldn't pick it up from the ground.

I mainly LOVE the looks of these bikes, but if it went no more than 60mph I'd be perfectly happy with it. Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations on what I might get that would: 1) Look good 2) Small enough for me 3) Relatively safe? Does anyone manufacture smaller/slower motorcycles that LOOK as good as the regular sports bikes?

An example in terms of looks that I really like is the Honda CBR1000RR. Can someone please base a recommendation based on the looks of this motorcycle please =) I've also never ridden a bike, so one that would be good for beginners would be appreciated too! (I don't care at all for the power/speed of the motorcycle...in all honesty the slower/milder it is, the better)

For airline commerical flights, there are like virtually all male pilots and hardly any female pilots...why?
I asked my dad and had a heated argument with him...he said that females are only good at servicing people so they can only be stewardess....he also said that women lack concentration, lack control and a sense of direction aka decision making during emergency situation and can't keep their cool...although I don't quite agree...I must say that perhaps my dad is right.
Can someone offer me their thought?
Do airlines employ female pilots or is there a rule which says that they only want male pilots?
For male pilots..what are their strengths over female pilots?

thank you

I have bought a car in Florida, after 28 days having the car I noticed that I had no address to mail the payments for the car.Before the due, I called the dealer and after several tries I got to speak with someone who said that they were going to call me back. To make it short, they asked me to go over there "SIGN SOME PAPERWORK", I asked what happened they said that the financial papers were not approved because the proof of income wasn't sufficient.
So I spoke with some other friend who is a dealer, which told me the possible situation, I also read the posts in here and I went to the dealer.
After long wait the Financial Guy called me in, He had new paperwork ready and asked me to sign. I asked why and He came again, that they needed to change to a new bank as the other paperwork were not approved. I asked: "Am I going to pay more?", and I keept for hours trying to have the car and pay what the first signed contract said. The only solution was giving the car back. But they wanted
