Checking Out the Subaru Outback

I’m not in any position to get a new car (yet). But someday, hopefully later this year, I hope to get one. We are down to one vehicle right now, and that serves part-time as a postal vehicle when my husband is called to deliver mail. Needless to say, my van is now pretty beat [...]

Well, we busted our car’s taillight again. Hee hee, oops. We had a problem with the brakes, and fixed them without any problems… but in our rush to get the job done, we forgot to pump the brake fluid through the system. So when we backed out of the garage to park the van, it [...]

No, no, no. Hey, I love the Eco/Hybrid/Futuristic car/bike/motorbike/jet just as much as anyone else, but… don’t these Europeans realize that people have FAMILIES?! I saw a short video on Flixxy called Test Driving an EcoMobile (Flixxy won’t allow me to embed their videos, so you have to go to the website to see it). EcoMobiles [...]

I must be on a vehicle fixation or something. I found this video and LOVED it! It’s a Renault “car ballet” (here in my archives I also posted a stunning car ballet by Hyundai). This one is a little different. This one crashes cars ON PURPOSE. While playing classical music. With elegance. LOL. PUB RENAULT [...]

Dear Dodge Minivan Manufacturers, I’ve been a loyal Dodge Grand Caravan owner for almost two decades. I bought my first one way back in 1992, back when minivans where just starting to come into popularity. I had to give up my beloved Chevrolet Nova because I couldn’t squeeze three infants with their mammoth car seats into [...]

Ow ow ow ow. I am amazed the driver survived this crash. WOW. This is just amazing. It’s a short video. Watch how this Porsche 911 GT1 flips up and over. This was during the Petit Le Mans race. Can you see how the Porsche was too close to the car in front of it? [...]

What does a lady do when she has nothing to blog about, when her creative juices are running dry? Why, discuss car repair, of course! (I’d blog about best fat burners or diet pills, but I’m afraid that would drive some of you off, heh heh). Well, I actually heard something useful on NPR (NPR is [...]
