My mothers 2002 Hyundai Sonata only gets 22 MPG hwy. Some of these small piece of crap cars are not getting much better than a monster SUV. The GMC Yukon is shown at consumers guide at 21 MPG hwy. All cars need to improve, pointing the finger at SUV's is not completely accurate. Some cars...

The trick is to have a concrete wall & floor basement. Mine stays at 65 degrees year round. Make sure when you finish it that you do not use any insulation or carpet. If you decide to cover up the concrete, make sure it is something that will transfer the cold from the concrete and has a...

No free will so no punishment for crimes? I guess I can live with that as long as the same applies to my no free will when I use my pre-determined right to defend myself and blow the perp away.

Yeah it's good to have a gull winged doored super car tucked away in the garage. But for actual driving it's good to know a GM will take you half a million miles.

I just happened upon this one without even looking. It says 461,000 miles but I thought it was a misprint and maybe it was 161k and it might be a good deal. When I called they said it actually has 467,000 miles and is in perfect shape, the guy said it would do several more hundred thousand...

With plug in hybrid it doesn't matter, as long as the electric range can get you to work and back, you will never need gas again.

I think you are talking about me. Exactly, talk to a mechanic that works on BMW's and they will tell you they all have the same common problems over and over. Radiator, heater core, expansion tank all time bombs ready to go at any minute because they are so poorly designed in plastic. Add to...

You got them all right except #1 =terrible product quality. I have proved on these boards many times using non biased means of testing long term durability of GM vehicles and each time shows that GM is unsurpassed in long term durability. Yet people who know nothing keep hammering on the same...

Ok, I'll give you that much. Although we all want to improve ourselves right here in this country and I know this is true otherwise we would have leveled the inequities a long time ago, and we'd be in the sewer with everyone else. I'm just saying that there is plenty of suffering right here...

Yeah, well what the hell are you? Like I said, you should give your inheritance away if you feel like that. In fact you should give everything you have and while you are at it just max your credit card and give until it hurts. Don't worry, no matter how tough things get the ones you help...

We're already shipping our jobs to India, so why not send them our inheritence also. I guess from the posts on this thread, if your parents decide to ship all there net worth out to India or to the Gates Foundation instead of giving it to you, there would not be any bad feelings?

I have read into the death of the Electric car pretty extensively and it was a combination of big oil and all the auto manufacturers fighting it in California. The oil companies sure were worried about something, especially seeing the cool GM EV1 Generation 2 hit the roads. Bush had nothing...

Well, I would say it seems as a whole, everyone hates us. But regardless, there's a lot of suffering right here in the US. A huge amount have to decide between health care or paying their mortgage. They sucked their money from here, why not put some back rather than sending it abroad.

Question: Once that money is in the Bill Gates Fund, can they change their mind in the future and decide to take it back and not donate it? Personally if I had that kind of money I would start helping people that need help directly and would start in the country that I made the money in...

Looks like his kids get the shaft.

He's a slightly to the right moderate. Ted Nugent would be considered a real conservative.

I wish Bernanke would just keep his trap shut.

Why doesn't he get lost and keep his trap shut.:)

Why is everything our responsibility? We are only a country of 300 million, let the rest of the 5 billion people in the world do something for themselves. The US is trying to do too much.

I always keep 2 computers updated plus the important stuff on CDRW. So I'm ok with my data. With the advice I got on this board I'm glad I decided to go this route and save the computer. I was ready to put it out on the curb last week.
