    Is it really possible to to buy Cool Gadgets through the internet?

    Buying stuff? On the internet? Wow... you really need to run with that idea. You'd make gajillions of dollars.

    Should I spend $10,000 on a used 2001 Porsche Boxer S? or just buy a new...

    Call your insurance company first. That huge jump in premium alone will probably make up your mind for you. Also, dial up the local Porsche dealer. Ask them how much a brake job is on a Boxster (not "Boxer"). Then call the Honda dealer and ask the same on a Civic/Accord. Ask the Porsche dealer...

    i want to trade my car even up for another car. where do i do it on the internet?

    Very difficult to do, as you need to find someone with a vehicle at the same value or willing to go uneven on the trade. Try Craigslist for your local area. Look under the "Barter" section, if anyone is willing to do this they'll be there. You can also post your car on there and see what happens.

    2006 Kia spectra with negative equity?

    In order to obtain the title, you must pay the lender in full. So, even if you did find someone willing to purchase your car for $12K (very highly unlikely), you'd have to pay off the loan before you could request the title. Don't try to sell the car for less than what you owe. You will have...

    VW 1999 jetta $6000? does it worth it?

    Wow. Let me know who's selling it for $6000, I'll go there and punch them right in the mouth. Either they: A) Put too many mods on the car and think that it's actually worth three times what the books are telling us, or... B) They owe too much on it, and are wanting to get rid of it to get...

    are hummers expensive to maintain? i saw one for 17,000 with 40kmile?

    You'd wanna spend $17K on one (I'm assuming an H3, which is a sorry excuse for a Hummer), knowing full well they may not be around this coming year? Much better choices out there.

    is this a good car? 1998 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class 320?

    Mileage is decent, but... the late-90s CLK's were far from reliable. I wouldn't touch it. If you're looking at it for the "Bling factor", you're going to pay out the nose for it in the long run. No used Benz is ever cheap to repair. Parts are high (some extremely high). Much better (and...

    Is a Royal Enfield a reliable bike for beginners? ?

    If you're in the USA, then you'll probably notice that Royal Enfields don't sell well at all. Some dealers have liquidated them at pennies on the dollar, as they sat in the showroom for years. I'd avoid it like the plague, unless you want to also become a mechanic at the same time...

    How to get the best trade-in value for an SUV

    As you probably know, the SUV market is very, very, very soft right now. Don't expect top-dollar at any dealer right now. In fact, some are refusing to take any on trade, as they cannot turn around and sell them. There is just no market on them due to gas prices. I hope you don't owe much on...

    I bought an older truck with out a title in Texas

    You can go down to the county tax office and have them do a "lost title" search and obtain it for a fee. You won't have to pay taxes 'til you register the vehicle. Last time I did this, I was looking for one on an old Panhead Harley we found in Lubbock. By the time I was done, it cost me about...

    Do you know if the incentives are helping car makers sell their truck and SUV

    You should still see good discounts toward the end of the year, however keep in mind that all of the automakers are slowing down or stopping truck/SUV production altogether. And, trust me, dealerships are very desperate right now. I saw a local one offering $12,000 off of Dodge Rams.

    How much can I negotiate down a 2001 Nissan Pathfinder LE with 74k?

    Pathfinders carry decent resale value, so $8990 is actually not that bad for the mileage. 74K for a 7-yr old vehicle is pretty good. Offer them $7500 and work your way up in small increments. Keep in mind that the market on SUVs right now is very soft, so work that to your advantage. And keep...

    I loved the ol' "Kenny Rogers Jackass" clips Will Sasso created for MadTV. Had me thinking... who else would made a good "Jackass" host? So, answer the question: "Hi, I'm ________, welcome to Jackass!" Some that come to mind: Willie Nelson Barack Obama Chuck Norris
