  • What's a good car to travel+car camp?

    I had a Scion TC once and that thing never had issues and had so much room in the back when seats fold down so I can literally sleep back there. I'm looking for something compact like that but newer and inexpensive. Any suggestions? Preferably Japanese or Korean. Thanks!

  • Top off coolant in radiator?

    Is the antifreeze/coolant supposed to fill up all the way to the top in the radiator while cool? The reservoir has a "min max" mark but there's no indicator for the radiator. 

    Also, there was red coolant in the reservoir but the coolant I got was green/yellowish. It says mixes with any coolant for all cars so it should be safe right?

    Thanks in advance.

  • How to properly dispose of old coolant?

    I know you can take old oil to AutoZone or something but what about coolant? They don't have a bin for it. Am I able to safely pour it down the drain?

  • Do you need coolant flush if engine isn't overheating?

    My 05' Corolla coolant reads at 70~80°C even when it's hot out. But it just hit 200k miles and maintenance recommends coolant flush. I just got the car and don't know when it was last changed but it looks pretty clean. Do I need to change it or will it be safe to wait a bit?

  • Can I turn my closet into a room?

    It's a good size walk-in closet. Can I turn it into a room for my 1 yr old? We live in a 1 bedroom and can't afford to move out this year so I'm thinking of ways to make it work.

    Thanks in advance.

  • How do light scratches on new car happen?

    I wanted to prevent light scratches on my new car but I just took it to a touchless wash and noticed there are already few light scratches now. How did this happen? Could it happen from just driving in general? My first new car so not sure how sensitive clear coat is...

    Thanks in advance!

  • Can lizards and cats co-exist?

    I wanna get a big lizard maybe a gecko to keep spiders and mosquitos away. But will my cats try to eat it? I know they'd be uncomfortable at first but can they eventually get along?

  • Dentist said I had periodontitis?

    Did all the x-rays and what not and said my teeth was in excellent condition. No cavities or anything. And then I guess the manager came in and told me I had to get my periodontitis treated with laser and what not for $600+. I thought my teeth was good so how did I even get that?? Am I being scammed? 😑

  • How to be straightforward?

    I have a tendency of being a push over and keeping quiet about things I'm not okay with. I wish I could speak my mind and be a dick sometimes. How can I do that?

    Last night, I drove for Lyft in my new car and someone decided to bring their dog. I should've declined the ride but I didn't. Now my new car is full of dog hair. The same guy also decided to put their foot on the seat as well so there are dirt marks on the door.

  • Will using fan on central AC run up the bill?

    I wanna keep the temperature at 74 but it gets hot after awhile even though 74 isn't hot at all. If I set my AC to run the fan 15 minutes (to circulate the cold air) every hour, will it cost a lot?

  • 2020 Hyundai Elantra depreciation?

    I'm looking for a new car and looking at the 2020 Hyundai Elantra Value. Currently I can get it for $18,736 out the door. But should I wait a few months for the 2021 to come out? I imagine dealerships are gonna discount the 2020s a lot harder to get em out.

    I only ask because I'm car-less right now and don't want to add miles on my wife's lease. But I do need a car so I can find a new job and drive for Lyft / Uber for the time being. I also like the smart features on these new cars and warranty is nice to have.

  • Are non venomous snakes bad for cats?

    I wanna kidnap one next time it comes to my patio and keep it in my house for free pest control. I heard king snakes kill rattlesnakes too. But will they also attack my cats? Or are they friendly?

  • Should I sell my dream car?

    I have my dream car (Hyundai Genesis coupe 3.8 gt) and I'm paying $280/m for it for 3 more years. But lately it has just been collecting dust and I don't have a garage so it gets dirty real quick since it's black. I can't really take my 1 yr old anywhere with it since his car seat don't fit. My wife and I are also looking into moving into a bigger apartment so we need to cut our expenses somewhere. Should I just trade my car for a cheaper Hyundai Accent which would just be $100/m? Insurance would probably be cheaper. I can also Lyft/Uber with it if I can't find a job when my unemployment is over.

    Is it bad to wash car everyday?

    I Lyft almost daily so I like keeping my car super clean. So I got a monthly membership at this machine wash place and been taking it 3+ times a week. I don't really care much about getting swirl marks but am I messing up the clear coat? I got the package where the machine sprays turtle wax on it. I also get it professionally clay and wax every 6 months.
