The early Ioniqs had lifetime battery warranties but IDK if that one would or if it's transferrable. When I was new Prius shopping in 2019 I think the Ioniqs started at $20k but they had a 6 speed automatic trans which put me off compared to the well regarded Prius style "with seven moving...

Wouldn't it be funny if all the leaks made Amazon not want to carry this product, and the sales are a clearance to get them off the books? And they're just too dumb to connect the dots?

It's hard to win a lawsuit when you're moving and the thing you traded paint with is standing still.

Also leaving an expired license in your car invites identity theft. Maybe not so much as a valid one but my state allows an expired ID as part of what it takes to get another new one.

You might have to fill out an affidavit stating you lost the original, in which case you'd be caught in a lie trying to use it. When I got my motorcycle endorsement they mailed me another license while I kept my original, both with the same valid expiration date years down the road. I also had...

Thanks, Captain Obvious.

I did oil changes all the time in my first apartment. Landlady even walled off "lockers" for her tenants in her barn with 2x4s and chicken wire, where I kept my oil supplies and snow tires. Also pulled off a complete front brake job in a Lowes parking lot in swampy Virginia under the scalding...

Likely not.

Follow some links, it's pretty well explained. Group III basestocks have a 40% shortfall due to a destroyed (not blockaded, destroyed) plant in the region. They can't touch it during this conflict and expect a year to get it up and running AFTER the conflict is over. There are no appropriate...

Found a dragging rear caliper on wife's Prius at about your mileage. Hose and pins were fine, caliper was bad. Both her cars and mine got pads & rotors at this mileage. Went with semi-met for better rust scraping off the rotors. They have good bite and are keeping clean as expected. Hybrid...

OP was looking to "move up" to something ten years old per the first post, so it's not "new". I philosophically like the idea of keeping college kids in a safe yet unappealing vehicle so they don't get lifestyle/ expectation creep too early in life. If they have a new car in college then they...

Some TVs will nag you every five minutes when you're watching HDMI or a broadcast channel that the internet is down.

Good to know! I took 90% out of a metal dent once by stuffing a deflated basketball between it and its backing structure then inflating it in place.
