    Are Nissan Altima shoulder belt locking mechanisms the same as Ford?

    I bought a 2006 Nissan Altima because I was tired of Fords. Fords have so many problems, I was just sick and tired of them. A lot of the problems are minor, but they add up. One of the minor problems, which I noticed in most Fords for the past 30 years, is that the shoulder belts lock up at...

    Since both cars are about the same size, wouldn't it make sense for them to have the same size wheels? What is the advantage of the coupe body being 1/2 inch closer to the ground by being on 1 inch smaller wheels?

    I want to get a new Honda good for a tall driver with long legs and big

    feet. What Honda should I get? Honda because of long term reliability and low cost of repairs. The smaller the whole vehicle is, the better I like it, but it has to have lots of driver leg room, knee room, and foot room. For example the pedals shouldn't be small and close together.

    Health Care debate is being used as a distraction away from Global Warming?

    Global warming is happening already, and there is nothing we can do to stop it. Trying to change the habits of the whole world is just a huge waste of time, with zero chance of success. What we should do instead is research into the direct and indirect effects of global warming, and into ways...

    Why do the spinning wheels on a bike make it less likely that it'll fall over?

    North Korean military?

    They obviously have a limited number of nuclear weapons and a limited amount of nuclear fuel to make more. Each time they test one, they reduce their stockpile. Does that imply their real motivation is just to scare everyone, and that they have no intention of ever starting a nuclear war...
