Wow! Great loaner. The last loaner I had due to a fender bender was a really nice one too. It's been so long I can't remember what it was but I do remember thinking how nice it was. It helps to soothe the soul when your car is in the shop.

I have an older Dodge that is just begining to show some rust spots around the edges of the hood. What can I do to prevent these from becoming larger without having the whole vehicle sanded and painted?

We've done that a couple of times Wildman. Especially when the kids were home. Teenagers driving just demand spare parts every now and then. I think it's a great idea. Go get your junker and use all the parts you can from it. Good luck!

I agree you must get rid of those germs and I don't mind the smell of Lysol. Another alternative is to use a mild clorox water and wipe everything down. However, I prefer Lysol spray over the clorox smell. I hope you are all on the road to recovery by now.

In my case, washing the car is always a good indication that it will rain the next day despite what the weather forcast says. Right now, mine is terribly dirty. I think I'll run it through a car wash sometime today. It's too cold to do it myself.

My brother had a '67 fastback and absolutely loved it. It was one of those teenage hot car things. If you ask him today, he would say he wishes he still had it. It was a pretty hot car. Solid white with red interior. Nice!

Cooler weather is always nice after a super hot summer. I try and start my car a few minutes before I leave for work every morning just to let it warm up. I think it helps the engine don't you?

Ya'll vote right in November. Look at the statistics on unemployment, national debt, health care and taxes. Don't believe what you see on TV. Do the research yourself and you'll know how to vote.

My worst moment was the black ice morning when a red pickup skidded across three lanes and hit me head on. My Chrysler LHS saved my life. I now have a bionic foot and wrist. I hope you never ever experience anything like this.

That would really be nice MarieLynn. To get into a super hot car in the summer time and have cool seats that stayed cool? Surely that could be accomplished by some of these car manufacturers. Surely!

I have heated seats in my Dodge. Although I don't use them much, it sure is nice in the winter time to get all nice and toasty on the way to work. How do you like heated seats?

Did you say hail? I feel for you. I used to live in Colorado several years ago and can remember a hail storm to end all hail storms. You only hear about golf ball, and baseball sized hail. Well, I saw it all over the ground. Luckily our vehicles were in the garage and there was no damage to...

We used to go all out complete with someone hiding behind the bushes to scare the kids after they got their candy. We toned it down the last few years but I still do enjoy handing out candy and seeing all the costumes.

I currently have michelin tires on my Dodge Durango. After the recent heavy rains we've had, I noticed they are bad to hydroplane. Is there any one tire better than others that will not hydoplane?

I would love to trade mine in this afternoon. I would get some kind of a luxury SUV with power everything. Of course that would have to come with a life time prepaid gas card too.

You just don't realize how bad it is until you have the refurbishing done do you. My window sills and facings could use with a little work. Maybe next spring.

MarieLynn, I can't post a URL to this site yet. Just go to u-tube and type in smart car safety and you'll be sure to find it. It's very graphic.

Just watched s u-tube video on the safety of Smart Cars. It's very interesting. I was surprised at how well they did in a high speed crash. The video did say that although the car did well, the humans inside probably would not have. Go check it out and see what you think.

My neighbor just finished closing in his garage to make a family room. It already had those fancy shelves in it so there wasn't much work to do. It sure turned out great. He even put a pot bellied wood stove in one corner. Nice!

I went to a wedding once where the groom's brother put sardines on the manifold of his car. Talk about stink. The newly weds barely made it to the first carwash before they had to stop and wash down the engine.
