These cars, the Honda Insight (1st pic) and Toyota Prius (2nd pic) both debuted to kick off the competition of the tree huggers you can buy later on this year. The Honda is cheaper than the Prius but gets less mileage and perfomance. But, if you drove in an enviornment friendly way, you could end up with 63.5 mpg. So, which one would you buy? In summary, the Honda Insight gets about 46 mpg while the Prius gets 50 mpg combined. BTW, I would choose the Insight
None.. I'd rather buy a economical car with a small gas engine and here is why.
1. Its cheaper
2. They dont contain the horrid batteries that contain toxins that causes birth defects such as failure to thrive and twisted limbs and they cannot be recycled.
3. Battery replacement costs MORE than a brand new engine and must be done every 100k miles or 5 years. If a dealer told you the engine of this new car would go bad at 100k miles.. you wouldn't buy it.
4. Hybrids are worse for the environment in the long run. They take more energy to manufacture and they will all be thrown away in the long run due to the high cost of battery replacement.
There are many options for economical cars that are far better than hybrids.

Eska Outboard Why does my Eska outboard boat motor not run?
PLEASE READ ALL THIS CAREFULLY: I have a 2 stroke 7.5hp 1983 Eska outboard, model # 14209A it has good blue spark, GREAT compression, and good pre mixed fuel in the tank that flows fine through the fuel lines, and it is suspended in water, so there is basically nothing wrong with it but it will never start, I am working the throttle and choke, so what is wrong with it?!?!?
yes pull and clean the carb...i have found that there is a Little orange check valve in the carb that is rubber..if it is damaged the carb can be clean and still not run. a sparkplug can fire outside of the engine if its fouled. but wont when put back in and under compression..put a new plug in to make sure you eliminate that prob.. good luck
When your winter boot needs to have a bit of fashion sense, grab the easy pull side tabs and slip your foot into the Women's Baffin Eska Boots. With a scrunched top, these Timberwolf leather and suede kicks have more style and attitude than any other pac boot, and they're comfort rated to -4 degrees F. That warmth is supplied by B-Tek insulation with Thermaplush for exceptional wicking, and a removable thermal footbed. An EVA midsole provides plenty of cushion, while an Icepaw outsole grips the tarmac. Don't forget fashion just because the mercury dips, slide your feet into the Eska Boots for women from Baffin.

1974 Jaguar XKE Convertible
Choosing the Right Sports Car
The times are changing, and one way to gauge how much they’ve changed in the auto world is to consider that term, “sports car.” Once upon a time, and not so long ago, the definition was rather narrow. A sports car was a two-seat, two-door coupe or convertible, a little lean on luxury with more attention given to handling and performance. Thirty or 40 years ago, there were just a few makes and models that fit the bill, such as Ferrari and Porsche at the high end, and MG and perhaps Alfa-Romeo in the “affordable” category.
Today you can forget all that. The definition of “sports car” has expanded and inflated considerably, although certain purists hold out for the two-seat coupe and convertible definition. These restrictions are enforced in certain international racing events, but for the consumer auto market, terms like “sports” and “sporty” can reasonably be applied to a wide range of autos, including four-door sedans and even “crossover” vehicles.
Defining “sports” and “sporty”
The task of choosing a sports car (or “sporty” one), although made more difficult with the proliferation of powerful and good-handling cars, is simplified in practice by considering just a few main questions. Choosing the right sports car is a process that depends on what you want in the vehicle. You may think that ultimate cruising power and stability, the traits of a classic “gran turismo” or GT car, are the most important. Or you may want classic sports car handling for driving the Alpine-type mountain roads. Both ideals are acceptable within the expanded definition of “sports car” today.
Even with this expanded definition, we can settle on certain traits that most auto aficionados would agree to. Sports cars should be at least reasonably fast off the line, although they are not dragsters, and able to maintain high speeds with stability. They should be “tossable” and handle well in the curves, with upgraded suspensions and brakes to handle the strains. Of course, looking cool or sexy is a plus, as well. On the other hand, luxurious comfort, although achieved by some makers, is not a requirement, and neither are the “techno-toys” like in-dash navigation systems and DVD players.
Buying considerations
If you are a single guy or gal, with no intentions of getting married or raising a family any time soon (or sooner than the car’s paid off), sticking with a no-frills two-seater is a cost-effective way to get into sports motoring. The new and used market can offer everything from Nissan 350Z’s and Audi TT’s to newer American models like the Pontiac Solstice and the UK’s “mini-Beemer,” the Mini Cooper. Many of these offer decent gas mileage, too.
All is not lost if you’re a family guy, since only a classic car buff would tell you that the four-door Infiniti G35 is not a “sports car.” With over 300 hp, a taut suspension and a six-speed manual transmission, this car can blow plenty of purist cars off the road. Also in the “family-friendly” class of sports cars are several of the smaller Jaguar sedans, plenty of BMW and Mercedes models, and even some “American muscle” sports machines like the Dodge Charger or muscled-up Japanese crossovers like the Lexus RX series.
For those who have no price limits, of course, choosing the right sports car can be frustrating these days, as there are so many fabulous choices. The Ferraris are always a rich man’s favorite, and world class, of course, but Aston-Martins, Porsches, Vipers and Corvettes, the Nissan Skyline, the million-dollar-plus Bugatti Veyron and a phalanx of Mercedes AMG models are available for those who can afford them.
However, many people who could afford any car at all still stick with older XKEs, classic Alfas and small MGs, because they offer the true, fun, Sunday-drive kind of motoring experience that still says “sports car.” What’s nice about the auto market today is that drivers are free to decide for themselves exactly what “sports car” means.

Where can i find a 1952 Harley motorcycle or a vintage Harley?
I want a vintage motorcycle like in the movie "The wild One".
ebay, but remember that the ebay /paypal vehicle guarantee does NOT apply to motorcycles and there are a bunch of crooks on there who will promise a bike, then take your money and run. There are several magazines that deal with older vintage bikes for sale. Check out the magazine rack at barnes and noble book stores, I see them there all the time. Word of mouth at a local bike shop often unveils a bike for sale that no one else knows about yet.
good luck
Cavalier Owners could I get some Opions from the owners of a chevy colbalt ss?
I am thinking of trading my 02 chevy Cavalier Z-24 for a 07 colbalt ss but I would like some feed back from owners that would like to respond with problems, issues, if its a good car, you love it or hate it and Im asking owners not haters because it's a Chevy not a honda, ford ,dodge, ect...
If asked to name an economical, front-wheel drive, four-cylinder compact car, chances are the average person would come up with an import, probably from Japan. However, the competent and quiet Chevrolet Cobalt is an example of America's ability to build a decent compact automobile as well.
True, the Chevy Cobalt doesn't really upset the pecking order in the compact car world; the imports, by and large, still offer better driving dynamics and interior build quality. However, the Cobalt beats most of its competitors when it comes to variety. It's available as a coupe or sedan, with four trim levels, three engines and two transmissions to choose from. As such, the diverse Cobalt lineup offers a good match for many types of buyers, from the relaxed and leisurely to the weekend hot-rodder.
Asking all the Cavalier owners out there; what has gone wrong with their cavaliers(as in repairs) throughout the car's lifetime?
Mine is(im at 140,000km):
Radiator
water pump
serpentine belt and tensioner
front wheel bearings
and oil changes and general maintenance
Yeah ok i guess it is, but what im asking is what can i expect to go in the future, genious?
If you have a four cylinder motor, leaking head gaskets, (coolant leaks) and exhaust manifold cracking. For all motors they have bad belt tensioners, starters, alternators, ignition module and crank sensor failures, corroding spark plug wires and coil towers, intake manifolds leaking oil and coolant, oil pump drives leaking oil profusely, mufflers rotting, rear shocks leaking, front stabilizer bar bushing noisey, PCM board problems, ignition switch internal contacts faulty, premature brake pad wear, rotors warp and need to be replaced, steering rack leaks or worn out, worn out tie rods (inner and outer), ball joints worn out, wiper switches, headlight switches. I think that is pretty much all the usual things that used to go wrong with the Cavaliers. I actually like the cars and think they are fairly reliable and I should know as I used to own one and repaired thousands of them. Preventive maintenance can save a lot of time and money if it is constantly done. I really believe that.
