If you're in an area covered by Alaska Air, take a look at the card they offer through BofA. The higher-end versions of the card include some nice features beyond just earning mileage. Also, Alaska miles transfer to British Air and Hawaiian Air, among others.

It's also a Volvo, if that helps.

First of all, it's "squirrel" with an "e". SQUIRREL. Trap and release is probably a good idea, though a squirrel in cage can equal one crazy-ass beast. You might also just learn to live with them. A squngee (www.squngee.com) might help.

To answer the OP's question, yes you should take it in for scheduled maintenance. My Civic's scheduled service includes an oil change at 10k miles and at 20k-miles/1-year. I didn't hit 10k miles over the course of my first year of ownership (my mileage is similar to the OP's) but I did have...

Don't get too excited about a Camry V6 in that price range -- you're definitely limited to the 4. The most disappointing thing I discovered in looking at the new Camry was that the (more desirable) SE model didn't have flip-down rear seats; a brace was added that got in the way. Very lame...

A hot deal! Works very well on the Samsung A900. I've also started using Opera Mini, though the fact that it doesn't recognize the volume up/down buttons as page up/down button is kind of annoying. Any other suggestions for cell phone apps?

The "HHO gas" is simply a combination of hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) in a stoichiometric relation to the water (H2O) put in: 2H2O --> 2H2 +O2 This conversion (electrolysis) requires an energy source -- its creation is *absolutey not* self sustaining. I don't think it's a scam, I think...

The Mazda6 has been mentioned -- a good option. If your main objection to the Prius is that it's small, you should check it out again. The interior is very much on par with the Camry (the old Camry, at least), with significant leg room in the back.

So basically, your story is that you pissed off some lunatic by tailgating him for a few miles. Right? Wouldn't it have been easier just to leave a few car lengths and enjoy the scenery? Hell, pull over for a second and let one of the people behind you annoy him.

And as for Canada's oil, it's mostly in the form of tar sands, which are far more expensive to make useful than what comes out of a standard oil well.

Oh my God, you truly are without any creativity or sense of history. It's a wonder that you're the product of people who lived through the Great Depression and WWII. You called someone Hitler for making a positive remark about public transportation? You actually compared someone speaking his...

Bad choice for the link 'hover' -- the text disappears into the background. How 'bout using the orange from the "Reya Lab" title text. On the topic of that title text, you might try a darker color -- brown or even black. The white outline will let it stand out from the image (perhaps even...

That's a plus!?! Geez. You realize some cities are next to oceans, right?

In Washington State, this is the law for red arrows: (RCW 46.16.055) ----------- Vehicle operators facing a steady red arrow indication may not enter the intersection control area to make the movement indicated by such arrow, and unless entering the intersection control area to make such other...

Why'd you rule out Hawaii?
