    So, why is Hyundai pronounced HUN-day in the USA . . .

    Then there's the old American Jeep brand "Willys" which should be pronounced "Willis" rather than the more commonly heard "Will-eez".

    Robotaxis Get Full GREEN light

    As a former cab driver, I don't see how these cabs are going to deal with the late night drunk crowd.  Will the car be able to tell if someone puked in the back seat?

    Is there a future for dry cleaning?

    The famous pianist Liberace came very close to dying from the fumes in his dry cleaned clothes.   A quote from Wikipedia: <span style="font-size: 12pt;">"<span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-weight: normal; line-height: 19.05px;">On November 22, 1963, he suffered kidney failure...

    My Osterizer model 462 Blender. Year?

    Today's recipe called for a blender, so I got the Osterizer out, and was wondering how old it is. It's a classic beehive Osterizer, model 462, with a knob switch. I looked for a website that showed the model histoy, but couldn't fine one. Anyone know when the 462 was in production? I'm...

    How Much REFRIGERATOR Does a Home Need

    Am I the only one here who hates side by side refrigerators?  My new apartment has one, and I find the narrow compartments to be very inconvenient.  Having to dig through the bin at the bottom of the freezer is a nightmare.

    Not So Fast re: "Banning" Gas Stoves

    I don't believe they will ever ban existing gas stove installations. A worthy exception might be an area that's prone to earthquakes. The phosphates were killing the fish, and we found a way around using them. I think that's a good thing. On other side of the coin, how are we going to handle...

    Opinions on vintage GE ranges

    One of the reasons I like #4 is that it doesn't have a troublesome Sensi-Temp burner. The only other problem I can think of when buying a classic GE range is that the clock probably either doesn't work, or is on it's last legs.

    Vintage GE "Thermal Control"

    "Smart car"...

    Years ago, my 2600 pound 1968 Rambler American was T-boned by a full size International Harvester school bus, and I was pushed sideways about 40 feet. I drove home, but the bus had to be towed because the bumper was pushed into the front tire. Of course my car wasn't worth fixing because the...

    Not So Fast re: "Banning" Gas Stoves

    For those us up north where it's quite cold during winter, heating the entire house with electric resistance heaters would be cost prohibitive.   According to The National Fire Protection Association, electric stoves cause more fires than gas stoves.

    "bad"automotive engines 2000 and newer...

    I like old cars too, but they just can't compare with new ones. My 2013 Kia Soul, base model, turns 10 years old in a couple of weeks and nothing has gone wrong with it at all. All I've done is oil changes, tire rotations, tires, and brakes. With it's little naturally aspirated 1.6 four...
