quepasameng asked:


Or is it just something that inevitably is going to happen. People complain about their cars breaking but they don’t maintain them. Assuming the car was maintained meticulously would repairs, such as transmission/engine rebuilds, blown headgaskets, never happen? Are certain vehicles prone to certain failures?
LOL
A dodge interpid should never be mentioned! How many engines could one possible go through?

In Montana military are exempt, period. We don’t pay taxes on car registration, it costs less than 10 dollars to register you car. I just got out of the military but my husband is still in. We want to know what we need to show our bring since the phones are not being answered down there and it is a long drive to just ask a question. He is not on my title, do I need to put him on my title? Can two people be on a title?

Ones you have seen occur - not remnants of.

I don’t need to know the gory details. Just want a frequency, broken down my major or minor.
Luckily, I have witnessed very few. Like less than 5 in over 40 years. I feel I am very fortunate. I sometimes wonder how many other people witness - because a person does see a lot of “remnants” of a wreck.

dougie2267 asked:


I heard all these cars are being scrapped and destroyed, wouldn’t it be better to give them away to low income people who don’t have a ride so they could go to work, and then trade the car for a new one later, a whole pay it forward situation.
