    Bad engine mount?

    Great post, with vehicle, mileage, details, and good pictures. Honestly, I commend you. That said, I don't think that motor mount is bad enough to cause your issue. I'd check the rest of them. If you do find one is bad, I do agree with the other posts that OEM is the way to go, even if it's...

    Neither of my cars have oil dipsticks. It's no problem!

    Battery replacement estimate

    Wrong. Most battery faults or excess degradation on Volts cause the car not to work at all.

    Ford Five Hundred dash display oddity

    You know, it always annoyed me that my 08 and 10 Escapes didn’t have a gear indicator in the gauge cluster!

    Progressive car insurance, found a way to lower rates

    $185/mo with Tesla Insurance. Prologue was $285/mo with AAA lol. But they were pleasant to deal with and paid out fairly and fast. Amazing how cheap some of your rates are!

    Chevrolet BOLT resurgence

    Yeah, despite all the Elon hate, I can take a 2 mile walk in my neighborhood and see maybe 10 GM EVs, Meanwhile every 3rd house has a Tesla, so maybe 100 of them in the same route? The only Equinox EV I’ve seen parked in our neighborhood is in my driveway. Driving around I do see quite a few...

    New Dodge Hornets reported as selling 33 percent below MSRP- worth consideration??

    I went from seeing like none of these to multiple locally. I guess the cheap prices are moving some of them!

    Is this coil OEM echo?

    Typed on a Chinese made phone or computer to the server hosting this website that was made in China too. What does it matter?

    Are German cars safer than Japanese or American cars?

    No, all modern cars are very safe. I think within the same approximate size class they are all about the same.

    Tesla Robotaxi / Robovan Event

    Yeah, lane selection is its biggest issue IMO. The day before yesterday in Sacramento it went straight from a left only lane. Got me honked at. It didn’t even put its right signal on, it just went for it. It’s ruder than me! Makes me wonder who’s driving they train it on. But, still love it...

    NEW Vehicle Advice / Recommendations: Anyone? Subaru or Toyota? What says the gang?

    Rav4 Hybrid or Mazda CX-50 Hybrid. Subarus suck.

    E-85 Fiasco with 2010 Buick Lucerne

    From my understanding the calculation of ethanol % can get messed up and cause all sorts of drivability issues.

    Lucid Air Sets New Record 747 Miles on a Single Charge

    I see plenty of these and honestly I do not like how they look. That said, they put a lot of engineering into them… great packaging and efficiency for a heavy, fast vehicle, so I can appreciate that.

    How to tax EVs

    This is a complicated one... but as much as I hate it, I think eventually we're going to have to go to a mileage based fee that's reported to the government directly by the vehicle or the vehicle's mobile app. I think a fixed fee is bad, because it punishes people who don't drive much. The...

    What is everyone doing for EV surge suppression?

    Meh, never have worried about this, but if I knew such a storm was coming I might just unplug my car?

    Frustrating Dealer Experience

    That's being nice, it's been in most new vehicles in at least 10 years and I think GM started using it like 20 years ago?

    2025 so far EV sales up 28%

    I don't really get what you are saying about "120-400 being brutal" Level 1 charging is all I've had for years across multiple EVs. And now we have two EVs in the household and even then it's OK... although the other EV driver has free L2 charging at all three of his work locations so mainly I'm...

    Nissan Recall for Potential VC-Turbo Engine Failure

    Seems like it’s a materials issue. GM, Chrysler or whatever it’s called this week, and many others are having the same issues. But, I think it’s a bigger deal for Nissan as they’re dying anyway. I don’t see them surviving long term. Sad because I think they made very reliable vehicles in the...
