Auto companies shifting emphasis from cars to trucks might be a good sign. It could be signaling a change in emphasis from the manufacturing of consumer oriented cars to production oriented trucks. As we all know that production creates consumption demand, i. e. I must produce (provide) a good or service to my fellow humans and get paid before I can consume the goods and services that others produce or provide. If I don't go to work and produce a good or a service that others find valuable enough to buy I can't even hire a kid to mow my yard. Ergo, Production comes before Consumption. It is not consumption that drives production, but just the opposite, production drives consumption. It could be that auto manufactures are seeing this. When started my contracting business in 1973 I bought a brand new Dodge 3/4 pickup, my poor wife had to drive a ten year old Ford Falcon. Why, because the Dodge pickup was a money maker, the Ford Falcon didn't earn the family a dime. I knew I had to produce before I could get MaMa a newer used car. Over the years we purchase a good number of new pickups but never ever bought a new car. Even a simple carpenter can figure this out.

Who wants a W(HU-NDA) Really? I did papers for my BGS, EMP. h JUSTICE STUDIES degree on bio weapons and the military. Its been many years, but I've always retained an interest in genetics and epigenetics as well as epidemiology in general. The things that are going on secretly The WORLD over in GOVERNMENTS (as it pertains to microbial/viral biological experimentation, etc) is TRULY horrifying. No way do I EVER trust that CHINA IS Legit THEY KILL/WAGE SLAVE/POLITICALLY OPPRESS/IMPRISON THEIR OWN PEOPLE RUTHLESSLY. BTW, my kids have Asian, Caucasian Ancestry. I am Caucasian, currently SINGLE, drive Toyota, had an awesome Honda Accord, 2X Datsuns and OF COURSE SEVERAL AMERICAN Muscle Cars. Loved Them ALL. BUT, this Whuhan origins CoVid19 is a portent of worse things. THAT GLOBALISM brings as well as the good. We MUST bring back our jobs, and let's at least try buy locally made products as MUCH as possible. TRANSPORTATION too Difficult, difficult, I know. Lord help AMERICA. P. S. Tiny phone, old eyes, fat fingers. edited, but now I'm out.

Regarding the low-powered Nissan SUV: Make sure you understand how to use the overdrive button. I had one on an old Camry. Usually, the time you want power is getting on to the freeway or passing someone. If you are in fourth gear (overdrive, you WILL NOT have on-demand power for these situations. Turn off the overdrive (push the button) when you need power. This will downshift your transmission to third gear and give you a big boost in power. When you are done, be sure to push the overdrive button again to put you back into fourth gear for better gas mileage.

We are doing what the CCP is doing in Las Vegas at the Raider stadium where 2, 000 workers have continue do their jobs. One case on April 2 and thats it. In states with low current CCP Virus cases they could go back to work or at least start. Also, what would make you think the CCP is telling anything near the truth. Their death in the first wave of the CCP Virus the CCP said they had 3300 death the current believe among China expert is the death is 15 to 40 times that. Asked on the US rates that would make sense.

I use ORileys, only because of convenience. I am not brand loyal. Truth is Id use Advanced Auto Parts or Auto Zone if they were located closer to me, but I have 5 ORileys 15 minutes in any direction from me. No, I wouldnt say that their parts are the best. I also wouldnt say their employees are very knowledgeable. The best thing about ORileys is their business hours. They are open when cars often break. I know they are open from 7: 00am-11: 00pm every day of the week.

My 2020 RAV4 is not the smallest thing but it's a 4-cylinder and it's naturally aspirated and it has an 8-speed automatic and it makes decent power makes about two hundred and something horsepower and with that 8-speed you know you don't need all the power in the world for something like that to get up and go cuz the 8-speed automatic gives you more gears you know more gears to accelerate to get all that weight up up going faster it's a zippy little thing I'll tell you

I feel like financing a car is sometimes a better idea. if I can get a interest rate on an auto loan for less than 4% wouldnt it be worth it cause you can invest in other assets like stocks or REITs that grow on average 7% so why dump 10-20k or even more on a car when you can put a down payment and invest the rest of the 8-18k in stocks or something else that can make you back more money. I dont feel comfortable dropping so much money on just about anything

I have a 2015 ml550 and iam wondering if this is the case with my truck because often times there's a noise like a cracking noise coming from like the roof of the car and it's usually when I turn into like a gas station or basically when the truck is uneven from the road. You get what I'm saying? Could this issue be the case? I've brought it to the dealer but they tell me they have checked it, NOTHING WRONG HERE.

I have an OReilly right up the street from work. I actually use them often. for off-the-shelf stuff like air filters and washer fluid. As a chain they have a sorta mixed record for me with real auto parts that actually fit(However my very first OR purchase was, of all things, a perfectly remanufactured 4WD control module that I got for about 30% less than anybody else had it for. So I guess YMMV? )
