It seems like a normal instinct to be a little bit not at ease when seeing a police car. But, most likely you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Or at least, that's what I tell myself.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. And, yes, my car is pretty much 'my baby' for the time being. I think I'm going to go with one made by Glade. I usually like their scents.

For the most part you won't hear to many people's stereos going down the road. I think the problem is more of the bass. That's what I can hear the most at least on most car stereos.

Nice bike! Thanks for sharing your picture of you on your bike. I would love to get one, myself, some day. But for now...I'm just sticking with the car I have.

What is a good MPG rate these days? I know some cars have much better gas mileage than others, but what is the average MPG most cars get this day in age?

I have never done anything to my own car by myself. I would be worried I would somehow mess it all up, and it would just be bad all around.

We have a lot where I live as well. Some of them are bigger than others, but I really enjoy looking at all the antique cars.

Ours have basically flatlined so to speak. They don't seem to be going up or down too dramatically. I'm sure as we get deeper into summer it will rise though.

Should I be overly concerned? I just discovered a small chip in my windshield. If I had it repaired, how much would it cost? Would the car be okay, with a small chip?

I am happy with the car I have now. Most likely I'll be driving it until it 'dies' or until I save up enough money to get another car.

Definitely wear the helmet. Just yesterday I witnessed a motorcycle crash. It was terrible. Luckily the driver was wearing a helmet and lived.

I've never used an air freshener in my own car before. Keep in mind it's my first car, and I got it not too long ago. What type of air fresheners, and scents do you use in your car?

Hi Ginger! Nice to see some ladies on this forum. Usually, you will only find men coming on and talking about their cars. I'm Alan & it's nice to meet you. (:

My car isn't exactly "shiny". I have heard of many other people using Turtle Wax, and have used it myself on my father's car. It works like a charm!

I can't say I completely understand where you are coming from, as I am not a woman. However, I think the general stereotype is that most women know nothing about cars. This of course isn't always true.
