So, so many good old memories here... Weird to think of it dying. I've been a member of the forum for almost 25 years now. More than half my life. Amazing how much I've changed in that time.
Those prices are all in GBP.
You do realize that 1 GBP = 1.52 USD, right? So that "6 grand" Suzuki (5,999 GBP before VAT) would be a little over 9,100 USD. And that price is only possible given the massive economies of scale afforded by a company large enough that it sells vehicles in over...
I read your post.
This is patently false.
While, in some circumstances, two quarts low may be sufficient to cause the pickup tube to lose coverage, you cannot say this for absolute certainty as this depends on the vehicle's orientation at the time.
Further, the light that is coming on in...
The number one most common cause of low oil pressure is an absence of sufficient oil. That's why they tell you to check the oil level. That and because the average motorist can't really drop the oil pan to inspect the pickup tube on the side of a busy freeway.
The blunt fact is that the oil...
The Volt seats 4 people and is eminently practical as the sole vehicle for an individual or a family.
The Elio seats two in a pinch and is only barely practical as a vehicle for a single person who is content to choose between luggage or a passenger.
By bringing the Volt in as a comparison...
The standard of proof in civil cases is preponderance of evidence (colloquially referred to as "more likely than not"). OP would not have to prove things beyond a reasonable doubt to recover against the dealership. That said, given the time lapse between service and failure it's unlikely that...
Really? You're bringing up the Scion iQ as an example of a car that sold well? The iQ sold so well that Toyota had to discontinue it due to a 50% drop in sales. According to Toyota, the car was not worth investing money in.
The PEAK US sales since 2010 for the Fortwo were about 1,300/month...
I don't know. I'd say that a 140+ mph speedometer in that thing is pretty frivolous. :D
I just don't see it taking off, even if it makes it to market. I can envision it as a toy for wealthy folks, but not as inexpensive transport for the masses. Insurance companies aren't stupid; they'll...
From the article (emphasis added): "Elio admitted today that the software testing shows that the P5 is getting 81.6 mpg."
They've had this thing "near production" since at least 2013 and yet they somehow still haven't managed to actually test a real car.
This thing is vaporware. It's the...
Not everyone gets off on striping. For those of us who don't, a tractor with a good deck suspension system does just fine.
Growing up we had a 1970s-era Simplicity (in the early/mid 1990s) garden tractor. Our neighbor ran a professional lawn care business and did his own yard with...
