I found out that a used car I purchased from a local car dealer ended up being stolen. The police came to my home and impounded the car. I contacted the dealership, and they've provided me a free rental car. They let me know that I would need to come in and pick out a different car. The car I had was a later year model with very low mileage, but the cars they showed me were older with a lot more miles on them.
Does anyone have any advice on this? I'm not looking to get "something for nothing", but I want a car that I like - not just to pick something out to get this over with. Different people at the dealership are telling me some different things - one says I'm going to end up with a "better" car ($4K more than the other), another is trying to put me in something that is around the same price as the other (but older and with more miles) and another says "I've got them over a barrel". Should I just pick out a car I like and "make" them give it to me with the same payments?

We have a limit for young drivers because we don't believe they will be competant enough to drive. Yet some 12 year olds probably can drive better than some 30 year olds. Should they make a law that limits how young you need to be to drive as well? What should the age range be?

I have a friend who refuses to run the AC even on rather hot days because she has been told - and seems to believe herself - that doing so decreases efficiency and makes her cost for gas higher. The car is a Volkswagen Jetta.

I need to sell my car because I lost my job. I have a '02 Dodge Stratus. Does anyone know where I can sell it (online or not) for free? I can't afford to put it in a paper or anything. I have to sell it ASAP b/c if not, the bank will repo it. My family and I are in a bad situation. Thanks.

I drove my car from Vancouver Canada and decided to stay in Los Angeles. I wanted to change my license plate to the California one. However, DMV is asking me to provide the document that proves the customs clearance of my old car. I am already settled here in LA for a while and where should I go to obtain the customs clearance paper? Is the procedure complicated? What else do I need to prepare? What is the closest point of customs that I can have this done?

I'm looking for a turbo diesel to run biodiesel in and possibly do a greasecar conversion with. The later 90's and up TDI's get 40-50mpg, not sure on the MB's. What's made your decision in a MB over a VW for a turbo diesel?

this has been the worst year i have ever had when it comes to my driving record. Up until Dec. 31st, 2005 - i had never had a ticket of any kind, and i have had my CA drivers license since age of 16.

There are NO DUI's --thats good...but there was an accident (1st one ever) on 12/31/05, then others are speeding, and intersection --yellow to red...
