  3. Re:He is looking at it wrong... on Should I Take Toyota's Software Update? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I think the meaning here it that it would be similar to engaging the clutch in a manual transmission, thereby cutting power from engine to wheels. I doubt they would actually shut down the engine in this instance.

  4. Re:Makes me wonder... on Paypal Reverses Payments Made To Indians · · Score: 1

    Actually my credit union allows me to do this. My Friend has to sign some paper form that will allow me to transfer funds from my account to his and optionally from his to mine. Of course you aren't able to transfer from their account to yours. This only works if they also bank at the same credit union. Their online bill pay also has a "Pay an Individual" option thats free and will either cut them a paper check or auto-transfer to their bank if you have the deatils

    Honda is really not that different from Toyota. Every manufacturer has cars that have X problems especially when launching a new technology, line or integration.

    yes, tires were truely defective and burst on all sort of vehicles. However, only the Explorers rolled over. Not even the Ford Ranger pickups had this problem.

  9. Ford / Firestone on Qantas Blames Wireless For Aircraft Incidents · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Yes like a couple of years back when Ford blamed Firestone for explorers that where rolling over when a tire burst. Despite the fact that there were pathfinders and other SUVs with the same tires that didn't roll over even when the tires burst.
