You would have been fine. Orphaned, but fine.

Rear-facing seats will never work, but some front-facing seats don't take up much room. Once the kids are big enough for backless boosters (4ish) then you are all set.

Ferrari only gets a say when it comes to press cars. I suspect Top Gear may have a privately owned LF.

I know in Maryland a rigorous inspection is required to get a rebuilt title. It is much more thorough than just a typical safety inspection.

You can think of hydrogen as an energy storage device, just like batteries. You use electric energy to produce the hydrogen, then use the hydrogen to produce electricity. It isn't terribly efficient, but neither are batteries. The big advantage over batteries is refueling, it is much more analogous to filling up with…

Measure your crescent wrench from center of the crescent to center of the closed-end in inches, then divide by twelve so you have the length in feet. Now divide the torque spec number by that to find out how many pounds of force you need. Now use a cheap luggage scale to pull the wrench until you see the number of…

Often the alternator itself isn't dying, just the brushes and/or voltage regulator need replaced.

I doubt in the world, but certainly one of the worst in the US.

Costco has less selection than the other two, but their in-house Kirkland brand items tend to be better than name-brand stuff and also cheaper. My favorite thing about Costco is that they really vet the products they carry so nearly everything is great quality. BJs is more like a bulk Wal-mart type store with much…

I buy a jar of the garlic once a year. I end up throwing out about a 1/3 of it, but at $6 a jar it is still way cheaper than buying the small jars at the grocery store.

My 2000 Tiburon was pretty good. Only issues it had were voltage regulator and transmission synchros (I was less than friendly with my clutching), both of which were covered under warranty. I even got a free rental thrown in for the transmission rebuild. I agree the Koreans sucked at one point, but that is much…

Ha! I went from a 1992 Dodge Shadow that blew a head gasket at 78k miles to a 2000 Hyundai Tiburon that didn't have a single out of warranty issue in 110k. My wife currently has a 2009 Kia Rondo that has been faultless and is at 98k miles. For beige-mobiles I always recommend Korean for the near-Japanese reliability…

My sister-in-law's Dodge Journey is about 2 years old and has spent a month of it at the dealer. I don't think Chrysler will ever get its shit together, but for some reason people still buy them.

Still not a bad deal in some cases. That S65 warranty is a lock to pay for itself.

It is odometer miles, not from purchase.

Turbo versions were. N/A fwd models weren't very special.

Looks like an origami F-14 to me.

Check out craigslist. It is really hard to find any Corvette under $5k, even undesirable years in rough condition. Even if you ignore the turbo, it was pretty close to market rate.

Nah, it will create a pressure bubble in the cabin that ends up acting like a roof. Turbulence could be a problem, but I assume they tuned that out.
