You guys are tough. The kid made a mistake and paid a mighty high price. Calling him names sames unnecessary. My wife likes to carry lots of junk in the van. She often doesn't think about making sure the bar the seats lock onto are clear. Her obnoxious husband always double checks the seats...

I have glaucoma. Lost most of my eye sight in one eye, but that is a longer story. I see the ophthalmologist 2x a year, keep up with eye drops and have had drainage holes lasered into my eyes. Upon moving, I like my new Dr. He is a little more proactive, keeps my pressures in low teens for the...

I was actually pulling for LeBron. Feel bad for Cleveland fans plus it would have been the greatest performance in a series ever. No way that team of schleps should have won a game. I respect LeBron way more now than before. He showed lots of heart. Love Iggy too, but he seemed to get an awful...

I think mine is first generation. 10 years, 146,000 miles and best engine I have ever owned. I can tell when it switches, but my wife cannot. ref

I installed a tow package a while ago with the tranny cooler, plus I do a drain and refill almost yearly. I did need a reflash on the computer to stop a shudder, but it was a quick easy trip during my yearly inspection at the dealer so I usually forget it happened. I have replaced the PCV and...

Decided to take a hit in gas mileage and drive our 2005 Odyssey to the White Mountains for vacation. Over 1,300 miles it averaged decimal points over 25mpgs. Not bad considering the traffic getting up there and the mountainous terrain plus stops for sightseeing. It was way more comfortable than...

Umm, we can protest what happens after I break a law. If I get caught speeding, the officer has no right to beat me, correct? In this country, the police have rules. If they aren't expected to follow them, then why should we? How about we word it this way: Everyone should follow the rules and...

I don't get it. I signed papers for a loan. I understood the terms (after all, I was a college graduate) and then I repaid them. If you didn't have a plan to repay, then don't get them. Isn't that simply true with all things? It's not the universities fault- you knew the cost and terms up front...

Says the law was made 26 years ago. Never voting for those people again! Wonder how often it has been used? ref

We are a democracy. He won. That's how it has worked for 200 plus years now. ref

I don't buy lottery tickets because of the taxes. ref

Expect, sure. Demand is a different issue. Your warranty is good up until the stated terms. Anything the company does after that is purely them being nice. They have no obligation past the warranty. I certainly expect more of my cars and would be [censored] if my cars failed below 100,000 miles...

My wife and I would love it. We wanted a Baja, but had 3 kids and they made a 2 seat second row. Plus, the Baja got worse mileage than our mini-van. I would prefer a larger second row, but now that we are children free I am in. ref

It is definitely expensive, but once a car is out of warranty, the company has no obligation to help. Would we be just as upset if it was 45,000 miles? How about 6 years? At some point there needs to be a cut-off. Plus, it doesn't take much to see that Minis do not have a great reliability...

So real leaders do what they want with no one separation of powers? Doesn't sound American. Did you guys call executive orders leadership? Strange one here. ref
