compared to direct car rental from companies (like hertz, avis, etc). If
renting a car through hotwire, on their website it does not show the car
rental company which hotwire will assign you to until you really book. My
questions are:
Do you still need to go to the real assigned car rental company after you
get confirmation from hotwire? Or you go to hotwire local office? (I doubt
they have such offices). What is the n |

I don't own a car or long-term car insurance.
what's the best way to buy liability insurance for such 2-3 week car rental ?
I know those car rental companies sell liability for $12-18 per day, a

Any suggestions?

The electrical engineer suggests stripping down the electronics of the car
and trying to trace where a fault may have occurred.
The chemical engineer, not knowing much about cars, suggests maybe the
fuel is becoming emulsified and getting blocked somewhere.

发帖数: 1018 | 7 Evo/STI的配重可比GT-R差多了.GT-R的变速箱是后置的,发动机是纵置的
Evo/STI都是从家用车上升级而来的.
升级的过程中为什么要给底盘/车身的设计做那么多加强呢?
就是因为原本不是按照sports car的标准设计的.
当然了,Evo据说是反过来的,先有Evo,再有普通Lancer,但是无论如何,设计的过程中都
向家用车做妥协了.
至于加宽的轮距,降低的悬挂高度,有些版本用的铝质车顶,都可以看成是试图往sports
car方向靠拢做出的弥补.真正的sports car应该从设计之初就应该有低重心,宽轮距等
等特质了.

Car camping 者，开车到某处campground，停车，搭帐篷（也可以睡车里），钻帐篷，
睡觉。好，以上是完成car camping的必要条件，只这么做的话实在不如在家里睡觉舒
服。除了必要程序，你可以晚上生个篝火围坐聊天，还可以看仰望宇宙思考人生；白天
在附近 day hike，还可以钓个鱼，烧个烤啥的。
为什么要car camping？我认为可以简单概括为：以一种休闲的方式亲近自然。
campground 一般比最破的motel都还要更蛮荒，当然也就更“自然”；说到休闲，就不
得不提一下backpacking了。
backpacking，顾名思义，你需要把你几天的衣食住装进背包，哼哧哼哧走上几迈十几

仅是钱的问题，还有购买时的心理享受附加值。当你觉得你花少量钱享受到更多，它会
给你带来额外精神上的愉悦。一般来说 luxury car 的性价比不如经济适用型车，而这
不仅仅是luxury car 标价贵，还有一个重要原因是它贬值太快，尤其是前4年。如果希
望既有高性价比又能享受luxury car，那就是买4年左右的 luxury， 而永远不要买新
luxury car。这些车很多事off-lease的，那些lease它们的人承担了车的大幅贬值。如
果怕reliability问题，就买cpo的。实际上如果你去试驾这些豪华车，你会发现和新车
也没什么太大区别。你买一辆经济适用型新车不出3个月感觉就那么回事了。别一直盯
着新车看，举个例子，如果买一辆camry 新车 23000， 这个价可以买infiniti G
