I am looking to buy this car, which is a 2000 Galant. The car has had two owners and the second owner (the person I am trying to buy the car from) does not know if the timing belt was changed before he bought it. The car has 106,xxx miles on it. The engine size is 3.2 liters and its a V6 engine. Hope you can help.

I know I've tripped & fallen, rushing to the bus. 1 time I saw a lady who ran for the bus & fell so hard she knocked a few teeth out, bussed her lip, & was crying, & she had to go to the ER. But then if you're late to school/work, you're in trouble. Even 5 min. late-trouble. Only if you would've walked out the door a few minutes earlier.

I allowed a friend's friend to work on his vehicle at my house, using power, tools, etc. vehicles. A truck was to be done and driveable months ago. He stopped working on it & decided to have it hauled to a new place. He assured me that it would be out of my way long before winter. I have contacted him by phone and by letter and asked him to please move it, and several notes posted in his back house door to let him know that I've had to work around his vehicle with the leaf problem in the fall and now we've had snow and ice and again, having to work around and push the vehicle away from the garage doors to get things/other vechicles in and out. He refuses to contact me back. I have even offered to buy it for what I know he has in it. Am I able to charge storage fees on it or pur a lien on it I have rights to get a duplicate title so that the vehicle can me mine, or should I have it towed away at his expense? This is my property. I need to know what to do.

Currently I have a 280z straight six with carbs and a Maxima 4sp automatic.

I'd like a more modern, powerful and cleaner engine, and still an overdrive auto.

I respect the various v-6s that Nissan builds but am not very knowledgeable.

Don't need turbo. 200hp would be cool. An engine that would mate the tranny that I have would be good.

Something readily available and not brutally expensive to purchase as well.

Any suggestions?

Exactly what information do they write down when they make a "copy" of your dr. license? Do they do a credit check, background? Or simply ONLY for insurance liability purposes.

I am looking to buy a luxury car and I want to test drive 4 different manufacturers but dont want credit checked everytime. (will they let me drive a $50k car? im a young male but i have $$ lol). is there any way I test drive for more than 5 min. (maybe like an hour or so? ).

I am the original owner of this Corolla and it has always had a silent and very gentle ride to it so that one cannot even tell that the ignition is on. After having the new tires, 2 Tie Rod Ends (L & R) and the Alignment it now has some vibration in the steering, you can feel it in Driver's seat & floorboard and it has a low humming sound. What may be causing this?

When I picked up my Superglide on 01 July 06, I was handed an extra piece of paper to sign. It was an addendum to the owner's manual, altering the primary case oil change interval to 5K miles and requiring an inner primary bearing change at 15K. This is supposed to be a no charge replacement as the factory requires it. Apparently the bearings are examined for wear. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is it still in effect? I asked the Service Manager at the dealership nearest me, and he said he didn't know anything about it. I gave him a copy of the addendum and he said he would get back to me. Haven't heard anything yet.

I know we have some actual HD techs around here - any input?

I have a 13 foot fiberglass hull Bayliner. My husband and I bought the boat and we're fixing it up. :)

When the boat was purchased, it was in sad shape and without a motor.

Although the boat looks great now, I have to start looking into getting an outboard if we want to go fishing with it in late Spring.

The boat is rated for up to a 50 horsepower, but I don't want to push it, and I'm also trying to stick to my budget! :). I've been looking on craigslist and people are selling 16 foot aluminum boats with 5 horsepower motors!

My question is, what horsepower motor is best for the boat that I've described? I'm not looking to make a speed boat out of it, but I'd like it to have some "get up and go" if you know what I mean.

All opinions are appreciated.
Thanks in advnace!

This winter I plan to move two harley touring bicycles down to Florida from michigan. Its about 1000 miles. The two bicycles weigh 2000 pounds total plus the trailer which is 1400 pounds. I have a 2002 ford explorer V6 4.0 4 wheel drive with a 1 1/4" receiver. Should I upgrade to a 2" receiver? Will my vehicle make it?

I am looking to buy a cheap used car in the South London area (England).
I am looking for private adverts on the internet, such as the ones on www.gumtree.com

Does anyone know of any good websites listing used cars? (not car dealers)

I have spent many hours looking on ebay but the cars there are either very far away to test drive, or are on an auction- when I am looking to buy now.
