Why are people obsessed with Japanese vehicles (Toyota and Honda)?
Can we stop bashing Korean, American and German cars? Every car manufacturer has had its fair share of issues depending on the model and production year. Stop being obsessed with brand name and recognition, and instead focus on factors such as safety features, a dealership's reputation and track rec...

financing for older vehicles
Is it possible to finance an older vehicle? I know the big banks usually limit the age to 5-7 model years or so. I'm interested in a 2011 model year car and am wondering if there's options besides a personal loan or a LOC.Thanks!

Are Copper Nickel brake lines legal to use in vehicles here?
... answer online. All I found is that it is used in the UK, the rest of Europe, and probably the US as well. And Volvo probably uses it in all of its vehicles including the ones sold here. Supposedly these lines never rust out like steel lines and it is very easy to work with. https://youtu.be/eXLUx4RmGZ4

Why are owners of premium vehicles more forgiving of quality issues than are owners of volume brands?
Is it because most just lease them and don't hesitate to switch to other premium brands?
