Cars Go Green - Hybrid Cars Questions



Question #1:

Car damage ? help please?

I've made a lot of MISTAKES, I took my dad's NEW Tahoe hybrid for a drive because he took my car away from me, I drove it to the mall to go shopping and when I came out of the mall there was a dent pretty big dent.

To make things worse, he's the sergeant of our local police force and I am already grounded because I also had a party while my parents were gone and my dad said Jay (also a police officer) and family friend would come and check on me I didn't believe my dad but sure enough he did come and I was drunk it was bad. He hates me and it makes me cry, I don't understand why he's being so hurtful.
I'm sixteen.

Question #2:

I forgot to add, I'm sixteen years old. This wouldn't of happened if he didn't take MY car away from ME.
No, he didn't take me to the mall.
No, my car isn't in my name it's in daddys.

Question #3:

need help with a title (read description)?

I want some suggestion, something I can edit to fit the feel of the novel, not the concrete title.

I don't want to give out to much of the novel but: It is in the future, about 80 years, 20 years before the main event humanity was surprised how far technology had got (not lazers and flying cars, think very powerful computers and stuff like that), but the main events get dark, the machines got to strong, and due to some malfunctions (this is not anything like terminator, trust me) they have started making human-machine hybrids (called "abominations", still not terminator, bare with me), these look fairly low tech and disturbing (picture pieces of a human face stitched together yet missing some pieces and pulled over something that looked like a car engine), and now the last remaining humans in this world where oxygen is diminishing are trying to stop the main machine called the "infernal puppet master" (this thing is gonna be ridiculously disturbing and symbolic).

The setting will be a hopeless world where the sun is covered every day, most cities have now devolved into a almost old victorian towns or mutated into odd, almost steampunk worlds.

The weapons used by humans will look old and odd (one I will mention is something that's essentially a small 18th century gatling gun that can be held like a rifle)

and it will use a lot of symbolism involving morality, the debate of religions, and borrow lots from dante's vision of hell from the divine comedy

Question #4:

Where can I get the cheapest auto insurance?

I´m a 16 year old female who lives in new orleans. I have a 3.8 GPA, and my car has a 5-star crash rating (2010 Toyota Camry Hybrid).
Where can i get affordable insurance?

Question #5:

What car should my dad buy? '10 Maserati Quattroporte or '10 Lexus LS600hl?

My dad is buying a new car in the near future and asked me what i thought he should get. He's narrowed it down to the Maserati Quattroporte and the Lexus LS hybrid. He'd probably want comfort over speed though.

So which one would you recommend? Both are 2010 and are the exact same price.

I would like to hear from people who know what they're talking about. Also please note that he doesn't care about being flashy so don't pick one over the other just because the name.

Question #6:

Is S400 Hybrid worth it?

My dad wants to get a brand new S-Class, the 2011 version when it comes out. When does come out by the way? Anyways, he has the money to buy a S65 but he also likes to save the environment. He wants a Mercedes-Benz for sure and he came across the S400 Hybrid. He read and watched a lot of reviews on it(the 2010 version) and they all said it wasn't as nice as S550, and it is a bit sluggish. Reviewers said it feels really slow.

Here is the thing, we live in Michigan where there is 6 months of winter. It usually snows 2-3 times a week. Some people say if the driver is careful, a rear-wheel drive(S400 Hybrid) can handle the snow and some say it's dangerous. I know 3 people who totaled their rear-wheel drive in the snow, but they were all teenagers. If he gets a S550, it will be a 4MATIC. Also will people think that my dad couldn't afford a S550 if he gets the S400?

Also part of the reason he wants a S-Class is because well #1 it's the top selling and most popular luxury car in the world but also because it's used as state/president cars in Asia and Europe. Which one do they usually use? S550 or S600?

Is getting the S400 worth it? Would you get a S400 or S550 if you could afford it, even though S400 is more environment friendly? But S550 is environment friendly too right? I heard S550 uses recycled material and burns fuel cleaner than Toyota Prius, which is good for the environment.

Thoughts please, thank you (:

Question #7:

which used car is worth buying?

Both used car are 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid and both of them are about 3 years old.
One with 34,691mileage, cost $15,728 and the other with 50,020mileage, cost about $13,699
Is the one with a higher price and a low mileage worth buying than the one with a high mileage and a lower cost? Please list some reasons as to why this car is better or worth buying.

Question #15:

Take two - strange political survey question.?

Since there seem to be many assumptions made in this section about people of different political persuations, everything from religious persuasion to favorite fiction genres and even stranger things here is a political survey to satisfy the curiosity of anyone interested in such things. Shortly before I close out the survey, I will in an "Additional details" give my own answers to these questions. Yes, I know many of the questions have NOTHING to do with politics (though some do) but the point is to satisfy the curiosity of those who have been answering and asking recent questions in the politics section.

1. How would you describe yourself politically. If you are liberal please specify modern, classical or other. If you are conservative please specify "neo" "paleo" or other. If you are anarchist please specify "anarcho" "green" "without adjectives" or other.

2. Do you own a pick-up truck? Do you own a volvo? Do you own a hybrid car?

3. What is your favorite band [and / or soloist] of the 1990's?

4. Do you live in the Northern Hemisphere or Southern Hemisphere or right on the equator?

5. How would you describe your religious or spiritual beliefs and /or secular philosophy?

6. How should political thinkers and leaders from the 1700's and before be judged?

7. Do you "hate America" and if so why?

8. How often do you shop at Wal-Mart?

9. What is your favorite genre of fiction?

10. Do you believe 9/11 was an Inside Job?
I am about to close this out. Here are my answers:

1. Libertarian / An-Cap

2. I own a little Toyota Yaris

3. Hmm, tough one. I am a huge fan of Beck but I also like Rasputina

4. Northern

5. Ignostic [no, I did not misspell agnostic]

6. They can only be judged by comparing their ideas to the standard ideas that existed at the time they lived. How far did they move the ball forward?

7. No, only most politicians.

8. Two or three times a month

9. Sci-Fi

10. No. But the government DID know something like this was being planned and it is disgraceful that they did nothing to stop it. But I have come to expect nothing better from the government.

Question #16:

Why did tax credits for buying hybrid cars expire in april? Aren't we trying to move away from oil?

what is the governments reasoning?

Question #17:

Looking to buy North American made family car. What are my options?

I'm definitely interested in the Ford Taurus (made in US) and the Ford Fusion Hybrid (made in Mexico) as well as the Hyundai Sonata (Assembly in Alabama). Most of my driving will be in the city and I want it as a family car as I'm expecting my first child at the end of November. Here are my thoughts on each.

The Taurus is $30,000+ as I don't want the base model for any of the vehicles I'm considering and it only gets 18 mpg city and 25 mpg highway. I love the look and feel of this car. The safety is great and it's definitely big enough for a family car I would also be able to get it in AWD which is great because I live in Anchorage Alaska.

The Fushion Hybrid's MPG is much better I think it's 41 city and 36 highway and it comes in at just under $30,000 but there's something about the styling that just rubs me the wrong way. There's plenty of room but it reminds me too much of the focus which just looks cheap to me. I know that the Fusion is made in Mexico not the US but it's still North America which is important to me and Ford is most definitely an American company.

The Sonata is great it gets something like 22 mpg city and 35 mpg highway and the limited comes with everything that the Taurus has (maybe more) for about $25,000. The warranty is much better than Ford's coming in at 60,000 miles, 60 months for the warranty 100,000 miles, 100 months for the power train (Ford is 36,000 36 months and 60,000 60 months power train). The look and feel of Sonata is great too. My main issue with this car is that I don't know what percentage of the vehicle is manufactured in the US. I know that they say it's built in Alabama but for all I know they could assemble the whole thing in South Korea and slap on the rear bumper after shipping it over and claim that it's built in the US. It's also not an American company and I would really like to support the American economy or at least North American as best I can.

Does anyone know what the break down for parts made/ parts assembled in the US is for any of these (or other "made in us") vehicles is? I'm also open to other options but I like what I've heard and seen from these three the best.

So what are my options
