    Jamak Glider wiper blades are great!

    I just picked up a pair at Wal-Mart for $13/ea, and they are the best wiper blades I've used so far! I just hope their durability lasts longer than the Bosch and Ancos I've been using, both of which are dissapointing, so I've used Ancos lately since they're half the price of the Bosch...

    Civic vs. Fit vs. Mazda3i vs. new Sentra...

    Ford Fusion named "Most Washable"...

    I just found this on Jalopnik: "It may not be a star performer in the crash-test realm (c’mon, standard curtain airbags are this year’s black), but at least the Ford Fusion has great crevices. The International Car Wash Association (seriously, there is one) has elected the 2006...
