    Microwave ovens never last more than 6 years?

    I have a 1980 Kenmore (not for over a range) that I use almost daily. The only things I have had to replace on it have been a light bulb and one fuse. I'm not sure there are many newer microwaves that will do that anymore.

    Adding Universal Coolant, concerns?

    You can try some of the commercially available stop leaks (contain crushed walnut shells - the little pieces expand and stop minor leaks without plugging up the radiator). Chart for coolant (you use the old "green" stuff) here: http://www.wmautomotive.com/blog/?m=201208

    NAG 1 vs ATF +4

    If you have a 2004 1500 SLT with the 5.7L Hemi, then you have a 545RE 5-speed transmission, not the NAG1 (W5A580) 5-speed. The 545RE is unrelated to the NAG1 and uses ATF+4. You can download a owner's manual here: http://www.ramtrucks.com/en/owners/manuals/

    How is Fiat going

    Chrysler didn't buy Fiat. The US government gave the majority of Chyrsler to Fiat to get Sergio Marchionne to fix Chrysler's problems. Fiat then bought the rest of Chrysler and they are now merged (Fiat Chrysler Automobiles).

    What is the reason behind "better" reliability

    Originally Posted By: PandaBear I am under the impression that Aisin (Toyota?) and BorgWarner (GM?) make more reliable automatic transmission than their competitors (i.e. Honda, ZF, Chrysler). This seems to be at least the common perception in the last couple decades. I would imagine patents...

    No reading on dipstick. Amsoil 5w-20

    Change the oil and filter. Put in the correct amount of oil. Check the level after the engine has been off and I'll bet the level on the dipstick is correct. Then check your oil level MUCH more frequently after that.

    2014 Toyota 4Runner or Dodge Durago

    Personally, I like the Durango better. The ZF 8-speed transmission is state of the art, with incredibly smooth shifts and wide gear spacing from lowest to highest gear.

    Grand Caravan electrical issue?

    Try disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes, then reconnect. If the problem does not reoccur, you reset the computer and that may be all it needs.

    hemi 5.7 oil question

    You can download an owner's manual here: http://www.jeep.com/en/owners/manuals/ The manual strongly encourages 5W-20: NOTE: Vehicles equipped with a 5.7L engine must use SAE 5W-20 oil. Failure to do so may result in improper operation of the Multiple Displacement System (MDS).

    Where do you take your used trans, p/s fluids

    Don't put other fluids in with oil to recycle - particularly brake fluid. It can contaminate all the other oil in the drum and make it non recyclable.
