ORPHAN CARS by krp
The great orphan cars are seldom discussed. Studebaker, Packard, Nash, Hudson, Kaiser, Willys, Muntz, AMX, Javelin, and the like. No interest?

battery question by Jim Beaver
I've got a '02 Jeep Grand Cherokee. About three weeks ago, it suddenly failed to start -- no lights, no chimes, no meters -- this just an hour or so after driving it without a hint of battery problem. The battery (which came with the car) has one of those little windows in it, showing...

If rear-wheel is so good... by [email protected]
then why not make all cars in production rear-engined, rear-wheeled cars? I hate RWD. It's slightly less stable and less easy to control to me.

A few weeks ago, our '94 Caravan began having some problems. When you'd turn the key to start it, you'd hear a click and nothing would happen. The next time you did it, it would start and run fine. Within the last week, it got worse. You'd turn the key 3-5 times and nothing would happen then it...

Gas prices... by Zoggin
Some anaylists predict gaslone prices to exceed $2.00 a gallon by this summer for the entire US. Those places that already have exceeded the $2.00 barrier could as high as $3.00 a gallon. The only good I see of this is to get all the damned SUV's off the road. Let's see how $100.00+ fill ups...
