man next to car tire with nail in it

A nail punctured my tire and the garage says I need a brand-new tire that costs hundreds. Can't they just patch a nail hole anymore?

Finding a nail in your tire is frustrating enough. Then you head to a garage expecting a quick repair, only to hear that you need a brand-new tire that costs hundreds of dollars. At that point, most drivers have the same question: Can't they just pull the nail out and patch the hole?

man in dirty car getting ticket

There was some dirt on my license plate and a cop pulled me over and gave me a ticket. I thought that was just supposed to be a warning?

Most drivers assume a dirty license plate is the kind of thing that earns a warning and maybe a suggestion to visit a car wash. So when a cop hands you an actual ticket, it can feel completely ridiculous. After all, cars get dirty. That's normal. But depending on where you live, that officer may have had more legal authority than you think.

Start-Stop Technology

My mechanic says start-stop technology is destroying engines long term. Is that true or just anti-tech fear?

If your mechanic says start-stop is quietly chewing up engines, that lands with a thud because it sounds plausible. More starts must mean more wear, right. The truth is more interesting and much less dramatic than the horror-story version.

Cars Boomers Loved Before SUVs Took Over—Did You Drive Any Of These?

Before SUVs completely took over suburban driveways, boomers loved...Well, they loved cars that were stylish (and yes, some were ridiculous). But honestly, a lot of them still had more personality than today’s endless sea of gray crossovers.
