Door dings and cracked windshields are part of owning a car. I will be getting something like this though. Hit and run around here has become routine. My household has been victimized by this...

I love my 370Z. Fun to drive. Looks good. Makes me smile. The road noise and stiff ride have faded from my attention over time but the fun remains. Just got back from driving 2500 miles in 5...

Speaking of which. Have had the Z about 7 weeks now and still can't figure out where to keep a car gun in it. Could put a snubby in the glove box but leaning over to get it in a pinch is a "tell"...

Deposit and verbal agreement

Not a lawyer but I think that you probably don't have an enforceable right other than to get your money back. Verbal agreements are theoretically binding but how do you prove it? What recourse do...

I think back positions, especially after problems set in, are very individual. I have chronic back problems but find the base seat pretty good in that regard. I just went on my first 4 hour drive...

Will treat customers badly. One of the few things this hard head has learned in 50 plus years is to not do business with people who mistreat their employees or their family.
