    Other than coffee?

    Pop, it's what I drink when I'm sleepy. I don't drink coffee or those energy drinks. If I am super tired then I will pull over and lock the doors and take a quick snooze. Of course I only do this on long road trips.

    Hitchhikers?

    Nope, sorry I have not picked up any hitchhikers and I won't either. If it is a lady and her kids then I will pull over and offer to call someone for them, but I won't pick up anyone I don't know.

    Smell of gas when refilling

    I don't notice anything different from when I'm pumping it or sitting in the car. I actually like the smell of gas when it's being pumped! I always have.

    Are MTV show to risque?

    I don't mine the Real world when they are playing the challenge games. I don't like the Real world when it's just them living in the house - drinking, fighting, and having sex.

    Name the color....

    I would love to see some different color cars too. I'm tired of the same old thing. You know what? You can have your car repainted and have it be any color you want. I'm thinking lime green!

    Air Conditioning won't work

    I would have thought the coolant too, if it's not that then I think you need to take it to a shop and have them look at it. It could be the air conditioner pump. I had to have my air conditioner pump changed out once and it was expensive.

    I'm surrounded by used car dealers

    We have a ton of used car dealers here too, it's crazy! There are actually about 3 new car dealerships here too and 1 auction place. Man it's like Motor City in NY.

    Riding In A Storm

    Not me but my parents have many times. I always laugh at them. I think it's pretty dangerous riding in the rain isn't it? Don't the roads get real sloppy and slippery?

    Tax refund and a car

    Is anyone planning on buying a car with their tax return? I keep hearing all these ads from local car dealerships for these great sales right now. Come on in and we will cash your refund check! I’m not planning on buying any vehicle with my tax refund! Just wondered how many people did this.

    Don't Run out of Fuel

    You can mess with the fuel pump when you run it low all the time too. That is what happened to my car (previous car). It was awful and a mess to fix too (had to take out gas tank).

    Tiny Rust Spot

    Oh no! That stinks and DNA is right (or so the body shop told me when it happened to me). I have a rust spot near my gas cap! I have to pay to have it fixed. Good luck in getting the rust off.

    Wipers - new and still not working

    So it could be the arms of the wiper and not the wiper? I had the AutoZone people put the last ones on. I would think they would have said something. I don't think the tips look odd at all. I'm going to have my dad take a look tomorrow.

    Headlights

    How do you adjust your headlights? My normal lights seem to be fine at night but when I flip on the high beams – the lights stink! They are no lighting up the road in front of me, it’s almost like the right head light (high beam) shoots to the right and off the road. How can the high beams be...

    Changig the Oil

    You can usually take it to any car dealership, they are supposed to take used oil. Call first though to be sure. I'm not sure where else you can take it. We take ours to the local dealership, they don't charge us anything.

    Wipers - new and still not working

    I just changed my windshield wipers and they still are awful! They miss spots when cleaning the windshield – of course they miss a spot right on my side (driver side). Why are they doing this? Could it be the windshield itself and not the wipers? Perhaps it’s a warped windshield. I even...

    Won't stay running

    My co-worker went out to start his car tonight to leave and go home and his car would not stay running. He has a Charger. He had a full tank of gas and it ran fine at lunch time. It's starting up but then like jumping a bit and then shutting off. What could it be?

    Never leaving it empty?

    Moisture in the tank and it also makes the fuel pump work harder when you are running the vehicle. I had to replace 2 fuel pumps before I learned my lesson! They say you can also get dirt and grit that accumulates on the bottom of the tank running through your engine.

    Muffler clamp

    Does it happen more in the winter? It could be all the salt on the roads, the salt could be corroding the metal or whatever it is you are using for the clamp. Are you replacing the original clamp with another clamp or are you making one?

    Tire shops

    I wondered how we were supposed to get the tires off when they put them on so tight? My hubby had a heck of a time loosening the lug nut when he went to switch the tires to my winter tires. He was cursing the repair shop.

    Are MTV show to risque?

    Skins is terrible! It's all about drugs and sex and they are teenagers! What the heck? I don't mind Teen Mom though. I think it is teaching our kids to not have unprotected sex, who wants to be a teen mom and miss hanging with friends and going to college?
