there's probably a question like this on a mustang forum. neighbors trying to sell my this pos 70 camaro with 2 dinky bumpers for 1000 bucks, should I buy it? when my daughter was 15 and we were looking for a first car for her, lady had a 67 fastback body on a trailer for 1000 bucks. no...

if someone thinks my stuff is worth more than their life, go ahead and try to break in while I'm home. Too many news stories of crazies attacking innocent people. So the media pretty much convices the average Joe that anyone breaking in is a threat. jim

there's just too much money being swapped around and the govt is now wanting thier cut. Ebay and shopping on line was great when it first came out, no taxes, free shipping, why buy local? I bet next up will be electric cars, when there's more of them on the road, the govt free ride will come to...

I think a ev would be a decent A to B around town car for most people that use cars for back and forth to work. But a few things that would hold some of us back would be the cost of a new EV. if I'm buying a $40k car, it's got to have a bed, 4 doors and be able to take my toys into the desert. a...

I know nothing about different class racing, but if your friend is asking what car to get into, she probably isn't a mechanic either. So, to make it easy on her wallet and you who might become her mechanic why not steer her to a newer camaro or a hellcat? those things are fast, pretty reliable...
