I bought a 1.74 amp 200 watt power inverter, and I turn on my car and plug it into the cigarette lighter. I have a stereo system around 200 watts plugged into the inverter. At half volume it runs fine, but once it more than that, it will auto shut off. I tried on a more modern car and it can run at full volume. So I know the problem is that my car is not supplying enough power to the inverter quick enough. I know I can probably hook up the inverter to the battery, but I want to use the inverter on-the-go. Is there any alternatives to this? Like any other way around, because I really want quality sound in my car, but I am on a budget. Thanks.

None of the places that do towing do tires. I'm at home now and my mom has never had a tire blow out like that (it's totally off the rim, I can't drive it at ALL) so she's not totally not sure what to do. I thought I'd ask on here real quick, please let me know, thanks.

I was just wondering about this. I have been on the truck with my husband before and when this happens I am wondering if he does it when I am not there, and If he does why do men have to look and gawk anyway.

If America invented the car with the steering on the left, why did they change it overseas?

I called my financing company Thursday telling them I had the money on Friday to pay them to get my car. Friday they took my car out of state and said I have to drive 4 hours each way to get it and I have to pay a $200.00 fee. Is this legal?

I've had plenty of windows tinted in my cars in the past. They always tell you not to roll down the windows for 72 hours. I rolled down my windows 48 hours after the tinting and nothing happened to the tint. What's the real deal?

ALSO.. the guy is telling me that it's ok to tint the rear window without disconnecting the rear-defroster. I've always heard that the defroster, if turned on, can ruin the tint with the heat and cause bubbles. What's the deal with THAT as well?

Okay, it's my girlfriend's car, it's been UNBELIVEABLY COLD lately, like -20C (-27 with wind chill), that's about -5F or so. Her car revs a little high and has some trouble breaking. This goes away after about 10 minutes or so of driving. She let the car sit idling in the parking lot for 10 minutes or so before driving. I said it was due to the cold temperatures as her fluids' would be much thicker and need more time to warm up to allow for smooth driving. Am I right? If not, why?

i need to get a simple car alarm. i have a 5speed so the ones with auto start are pointless for me to get. i also have auto locks and a keyless entry already. is there a car alarm i can get that is just an alarm and not a keyless entry and auto start? i have a guy i work with who has been harrassing me and now he has started doing pranks to my car i dont have the money to move or i would. any suggestions on what kind of alarm i can get that's good but not overly pricey? i know someone who can hook them up so installation isn't a problem. all i need is something that will make him look like an *** next time he tries to do anything to my car. also i can catch him 'red handed' and be able to press charges. i have to pay to get the number traced that he's calling from because he's blocking his number. i also had to ignore him on myspace and my messenger because he was harrassing me on both of those. the calls stopped because he saw the fax at work where im tracing the calls. i'm so fed up
