Q: anyone hear of the story in mass where some guy blew a toll on the pike and they sent him a photo of the car and a ticket for $50 - so he sent back a photo of $50. story goes they then sent him a picture of handcuffs!! dont know if thats a true one or just a feel good urban legend though! on dec 6 121 am fenderaxe f...@axe.com wrote beekeep wrote unjust traffic tickets running red lights kill people. i say get the aggressive drivers and yank their licences. we dont need those types of drivers on the road. if you cant see those cameras you dont belong on the road either. i question the accuracy of some of the cameras here. in the lately is about a guy who got a ticket for doing 147mph in a hyundai sonata. id like to know if a hyundai can actually achieve that speed. furthermore this was a rental car so i doubt the speed limiter was disabled federal limit is below 147mph isnt it.nope. the sonatas top speed is about 25 mph. g fa .

ill have to keep an eye out for that when im test driving it. i read in another forum some guy who was like 64 and said that he found it more comfortable than some other mid-sizes though he did not list his shoe size! ; on dec 6 1145 pm carolina watercraft works coolt...@bellsouth.net wrote you do know you should take your skis off before you hop in the drivers seat right -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi ----cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ----mack daddy trailers ----ice angels i sat in one a few hours ago while my truck was being serviced. i couldnt stand one myself my size 13.5 shoes made me very uncomfortable in it. i had about 1 room between my left shoe and the brake pedal and my foot kept hitting the brake pedal when i was working the throttle. i couldnt really move my feet around and after a few minutes i was done. i kind of liked it other than that. seems like the footwell is very very small. try it out it might not bother you if youre on the smaller side. i kind of liked it except for the footwell problem. i was just looking while i waited on my truck being checked out its sucking a qt of oil every 600 miles all of a sudden. running fine no pings or check engine light or blue smoke. they checked it over and found no leaks as expected since the only thing that ever leaked out of it was power steering fluid due to the hose getting cut somehow. looked like a rock hit it to me. so now they are monitoring my oil consumption. i think its going to be a major deal rings or something. i dont know where its going its got to be burning it somewhere since the coolant is clear. the tailpipe is clean rubbing my fingers in it produces hardly anything at all. my garage floor is totally dry. i moved over to the charger srt-8 and that was more like it but damn its so ugly wtf was dc thinking when they designed it. they could have hit a home run if they made it look ok. ive heard the next charger will look a lot better but i have to see it first. a charger would be more comfortable and somewhat more practical but unless its a killer i plan on getting a challenger during the second or third year they make them. bdk .

got a 2004 dakota 4-wheel drive with an automatic transmission. if im driving in 4 wheel hi should the overdrive be turned off my book only mentions this if the truck is towing anything. thanks for help dennis b i dont understand why you would be driving fast enough in 4wd to be using overdrive. i thought 4wd was only for off-road definitely not for dry pavement. paul johnson 95 ram 2500 4wd .

forgot to mention has anyone had problems with the ultralow sulphur diesel that is now nationwide i found a nice 99 dodge 2500 cummins powered automatic trans. 4x4 quad cab with some useful aftermarket stuff airbag rear assist springs pre/post oiler multi type bed mount hitch 105 gal. in bed fuel tank with 120k miles for sale. i remember hearing some bad stories about the dodge automatic transmissions but i dont remember when they got them worked out. my main question is regarding the reliability of the transmission but any suggestions regarding what to look for or beware of are appreciated. for what its worth i have a 99 1500 5.9l 4x4 automatic quad cab that has been very reliable. .
