I refuse to drive a Ford, Pontiac, Chevy or any other American car because in my opinion, they're totally substandard when compared to Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Volvo, etc.

Without commenting on how you feel about my views on car companies, does anyone know if any rental company allows you to specify what make car you want to rent and guarantees that type of car?

Thanks!

I do not have a car to give my driving test. I have already cleared the two computer based tests. the only choice i am left with is a rental car registered in Virginia DMV, if I can

Thanks,

Okay, I'm 16, and I live in New York City. For my birthday coming up soon, I'm getting a Maybach 62 Sedan. Does anyone know about the car? How it handles, etc. Is it a suitable car for a girl my age living where I do? I also don't know the price and my dad won't tell me how much it was. If anyone knows ANYTHING about the car, I would appreciate it.

My friend's driver's license was revoked, and I haven't gotten mine yet . My friend has to go see a doctor in another town, and I might like to be driven across the state to visit my aunt . It's hard for us to find a friend to drive us, even if we pay for the gas and buy him dinner . We don't know too many people with a car . Anybody who could drive us either works the wrong hours or is too busy . We can't take a taxi, because a taxi would charge hundreds of dollars for a one way trip . I'm not ready to hire a full -- time chauffer, but an unemployed person might be willing to drive us on a long trip if we pay for the gas, buy him dinner, and gave him twenty -- five dollars . If I was going to hire a full -- time chauffer, I'd go to an employment agancy . Why can't I go to an employment agency to hire somebody to drive us on an occasional basis ? How do I find the person I'm looking for ?

So I got pulled over today in a work zone which is a 45 mph zone. I was doing 52 mph. Any ways, what I want to know is how many people have been pulled over when there are seriously 50 other cars around they could choose from that are doing 60 and 65 mph? I just don't get why I was picked and I don't know why the officer had a MAJOR attitude with me. I wasn't sucking up or even trying to get out of the ticket, and he was being mean. I don't want sympathy. All I really wish some one could answer me is why I was chosen. I know no one knows and I know some one had to be chosen and I know life's not fair but seriously, people are flying by me and I get in trouble!! Come on!

We recently moved from US to UK and brought our American car to UK.

There are two main requirements form DVLA to get the car registered 1) SVA Test 2) Insurance in my name

I have figured how to get the SVA test done via VOSA, so 50% problem solved.

What I am struggling with is getting an insurance for the car. I have a American Drivers license (you can drive in UK using American license for upto a year, so am covered there) and my car is not registered. Now my problem is that

a) Most common Insurance companies provide insurance to holders of foreigh licenses, but do not provide insurance without "Registration Number" of the car.

b) Subset of insurance companies that insure cars based on "Chassi Number" do not provide insurance to holders of Foreign licenses.

Do you know of any solution to this dilema? Do you know of a company that would insure foreign license holder based on chassi number of the car? OR Do you see any other solution to my problem?

I am very impressed by Toyota Prius! However, Europe is selling 50%+ of it's cars in new-tech diesel format. What is the future here in America? I equate "diesel" with Volkswagen, and yet I do NOT see enough hype, articles, build-up, marketing, etc. for VW to be capitalizing on what could be a huge trend! What gives?
