    Tires

    I do not really go by brand. I usually go to Costco and buy whatever is cheapest. So far, I have not had any problems so far.

    CDs in the car

    I know it is expensive to do it, but whenever I have a problem and need to get my head clear, I love driving around with the music blasting.

    Internet

    I know I would go crazy. Even my TV is connected to the internet because I am using NetFlix and HULU Plus. I am so used to it now that I wouldn't know what to do without it. I think I am not the only one there.

    Your First Drive

    Nope, he never did. To this date, it still pisses me me off to think that he never gave me a chance. He didn't even teach me how to drive. I had to pay for my own driving lessons.

    AC only works on MAX?

    My aunt had a similar problem with an old Cavalier. I took a ride with her and it was really annoying. I don't remember if she got it fixed, but it was really funny.

    2012 Volkswagen Beetle

    I have always wanted a buggy, but it doesn't make sense right now for our family. I think this is one of those cars that are never going to disappear because they bring a huge air of nostalgia. Maybe when the kids are gone and it is only my husband and I, I can indulge in one.

    Car Recycling

    Does anybody have the information for these place? My uncle has a couple of junkers in his driveway, and I am trying to convince him to get rid of them. Maybe I can make the argument that he is going to do something good for the environment plus he is going to get money back.

    Diesel fuel

    How many more miles per gallon would be the difference from gas to diesel? I have always wondered. In my area the difference between gas and diesel is about 60 cents, but if I could travel a lot more that it makes a difference I would really consider it.

    Remote start?

    We had one in our old car. It was great when we parked outside. Once we had a garage, not so much. It would have meant going downstairs and opening the garage door before turning the car on or we would have had fumes all over the house in no time.

    Number One

    I just figured out that the main cause of accidents is that every one wants to be number one. I have been to Europe and I have seen fairness in play. When trying to merge on a big road automatically people go one and one. In the states, everybody wants to be first and don't want to give anybody...

    Bad Storms

    My brother is in North Carolina, and there were some power lines down in his area. There was even a tornado touching down like 30 minutes from where he lives. I am glad they were ok.

    Everything going wrong :(

    I think sometimes it is better to buy or lease a new one. Some repairs can be in the thousands of dollars and you have to pay them right way while the new car you can pay little by little (well maybe not so little), but at least they are guaranteed.

    Radio

    I have not been into radio in a long time. I hate the commercials. I have the same problem with TV. At least with TV, I can Tivo stuff and skip them. I only use my iPod in the car, but maybe I should give it a try again so I can see what I have been missing. I don't want to be a total square.

    "Automatic" seat belts

    I join the chorus. I haven't thought of this in a very long time. I haven't seen on in I don't even know how long. I think not only were they annoying, but I am not really sure they were that safe.

    Basketball

    The new basketball season is soon to start which means less quality time with my husband. Are you excited about it? Who do you think will get the whole enchilada?

    Car Vac

    My husband doesn't use a car vac. He uses the huge wet/dry vac. I guess that as long as it comes with a long hose you can use any vacuum cleaner.

    Stolen cars

    Thank God this never has happened to me. However, I did have a great scare. A few years ago, the police call me around 2 am and ask me if I knew where my car was. I told them that it was parked in front of the house, and they told nope it isn't. "Here is a guy that says he is your brother and...

    Getting a ticket for speeding?

    I don't think it is embarrassing because it happens to everybody. However, it should give you bragging rights either. I have gotten a couple and I just get pissed up that I got caught.

    Family Trip

    Yeah!!!! Spring break here we go. We will be visiting family this Spring break. Are you going to travel or staying local? Gas is going to be getting higher this Summer, therefore, we want to take this opportunity for a long car trip before it becomes too expensive.

    Honda CRV

    I have never bought of a Honda either. However, I am told that they are pretty reliable and fuel efficient considering they are a crossover.
