500 + 16-year-old car is lower than my sweet spot of around $8,000-$10,000 + under 7-year-old car, as I’d trade faster deprecation for fewer repairs. Still, the idea of paying cash for a car definitely fits in with mycar affordability rule-of-thumb. If you stop thinking of ...
1,000 miles for those who believe the most metal particles migrate into the factory oil during that period. I follow this regimen both because I think the first 1,000 miles are the most critical break in period(and also because any API rated oil under moderate driving is good for 1,000...

I am now sorry I bought this vehicle. It has also had the drive line replaced and fuel pump replaced and all this in under 30,000 miles. I would trade it, but it is worthless. I totally understand why GM is bankrupt. I'm just another sad GM owner full of regret. After this,...
I crawled under the xA and it doesn't look like it would be very easy to mount a hitch unless it bolts up way back there. There doesn't seem to be anything to support a hitch very well. I've loaded my xA on a steep hill with cargo (a lot) and then launched it uphill and ...

im a trans tech, I dont just replace transmissions, I fix them. if you had an actual evidence of damage in the transmission I might believe you, but dealership warranties are [non-permissible content removed] to begin with.. I fix all the cars you guys "dont cover under warranty" if ...
They have a 99 Limited with 6,500 miles on it, which is one that "the sales manager & his wife used to demo -- they drove it to Arizona & back on a vacation." It's VERY loaded, and price is a little under $30,000. Is this a good deal? I have no idea what ins...
My 2002 well maintained Pathfinder w/77,000 miles on it is burning oil like crazy. It has always used oil but recently has started to use a lot more.
Finally a mechanic decided to do a smoke test and found a $10 hose that was completely buried under the hood and completely shredded on the concealed side. He replaced it and the car has been great since! Hope this helps! shookbradMemberPosts:1 ...
