    Do people in other countries have high milage cars?

    It is an issue, however due to mandatory inspection the worst rust buckets are kinda being banned from the road. And there are plenty of people who treat their cars with anti rust treatment to keep rust in check.

    Do people in other countries have high milage cars?

    Here i Norway taxis reach 200 000 miles with ease in few years and there are plenty of cars that have done 200k or more for sale. There are over 900 vehicles for sale with 200k miles or more at Norways biggest online trading site. For a small country that is quite large number.

    Minijack to USB adapter, more sound volume?

    I see. Seems like that adapter is worth a shot. Those new headphones are great, just want more sound like old Razer headphones with USB connector had.

    Minijack to USB adapter, more sound volume?

    This is for a PC application. Not too long ago i bough new set of fancy headphones with mic, replacing damaged/broken Razer headphones. However while these new headphones are really nice and costed decent penny, the volume of the sound is way lower than my old Razer headphones. Razer headphones...

    Cleaning oil spills in the engine bay?

    Brake kleen are a fast way of cleaning tiny oil mess, but if your engine are covered with oil stains/spillage you would need to use degreaser and water. I`ve been a mechanic for 15 years, so i know a bit about that. Brake kleen are generally safe, just don`t use it on hot exhaust and åpen...

    Are there low spec cars like Civic, Corolla, and small 4-banger in Germany

    Plenty of "low spec" cars in Germany and Europe, various car brands have something cheap and basic with small engine and low output. And if you want something even more basic than Civic or Corolla, Dacia might have a line of cars that are really cheap. Take Dacia Sandero for example. Most...

    What's considered an old car?

    Here in Norway when a car turns 30 years old it`s considered a "veteran", you can have cheaper annual tax and lower insurance premium. To me 20 or more years is "old", as my Volvo in the pic...

    Can too frequent oil changes be bad?

    More than 2 times a year are a bit of overkill unless you actually drive the car significant amount of miles per year. Kinda waste of money too unless you do an engine flush, a bottle of chemicals or diesel fuel in the crankcase right before oil change.

    Which vehicle would you take if you could only bring one vehicle, and have to leave (sell) the vehicle when you depart for good?

    I`d choose 2019 F350 Dually diesel (56k miles), least mileage of those listed, and i have dual axle which helps with payload.

    Why the push for Autonomous driving?

    Did anyone see the video online where a Tesla dodges another Tesla just to be rammed from behind by another Tesla, 3 Teslas crashed and presumably filming was done by 4th Tesla.
