how come toyota in US doesnt offer the solar or plug in charging accessories on their hybrid here like the ones they sell in Japan?
it sure does give you more time to just use your electric motor to drive your vehicle out of parking lot before your engine kicks in.

I bought a 2004 Monte Carlo SS Supercharged car new in 2004. The owner's manual suggests running only PREMIUM grade gas in it. I have run mid grade since day one. Is there really any difference in performance? I have never had any problems with the engine and have never heard and "knocks" as the manual says you might hear if running less than PREMIUM grade fuel. Thank you for all your answers.

If you put bigger tires on your car/truck than what they came with originally will/can that cause your speedometer to show incorrectly? I am arguing with my husband about this :-)

i have a 1993 ford explorer that i let someone use. it blew the top radiator hose and blew coolant all over the engine .he pulled over and called me. when i went to fix it he said he tried to add water and start it but it would not start, so i tried to start it up before i changed the hose and seemed like it there was no spark.
i got it home and changed the coil pack thinking it shorted it out,but no change.
will it still start with no water in radiator?
can it short something else out getting soaked that would cause it not to start?
it sometimes sounds like it wants to fire but not enough to start.

any suggestions?

I have a 2001 Ford Escort that just developed a loud, power sapping (hahah i know) exhaust problem. A shop looked at it and told me I needed the ? resonator maybe? pipe replaced. It was the longest piece before the muffler....didn't name it for me tho. Then told me the cost of the part was 299!!!! Im not sure the car is worth the total estimate he gave me for the work. I found a resonator pipe on AZ for 136, is it possible that this is not the piece that I need to replace? Thanks for the advice.

At first I did everything wrong... I stopped in the middle of the street to let someone in who didn't have the right away on one of the busiest streets in my town. I was constantly almost hitting the curb and I just kinda felt completely clueless about what was going on. It was only a 30 minute session, and towards the end I started doing a little better and actually got the hang of it but there was one thing that I didn't really get the hang of.. turning. Is it normal to absolutely suck at turning your first time driving? I seriously could not grasp the concept of spinning the wheel and overlapping your hands. He didn't let me practice on little turns first he kept on putting me in the really busy intersections and since I kept on turning wrong, he kept on screaming at me and grabbing the wheel. Any tips on turning? Is it normal to be terrible at turning your first time driving? I'm totally nervous about driving again in a few days, will I get the hang of turning soon?

I want to add some extra horsepower and torque to my jeep, but can't see which one would add more power. I like that the intake adds 13 extra horsepower, but I like the sound and think the exhaust will add a pretty good amount of power too.
*The exhaust is single and side swept
