LOL. I wonder why I did that.
Oh I see, you are right under his post. :smack: |

At one point, I could not find any decent car with a stick that did not have some stupid spoiler on the trunk. Some salesmen trying to tell me it was cool. Maybe if I was so dumb as to be told what to believe. Some 'wings' in that location were designed to channel air across the rear window. To clear road dirt and maintain visibility. And did not cost $400. Have not seen those for at least a decade. Saw same thing on some mid-1990 Honda Civics. But never heard anyone call that a spoiler. Never knew that thing on a Juke also was a 'spoiler'. Reminds me of fins on 1957 Plymouths and Chevys. Well those owners got their fins for free. |

Wait a minute - that kludged spoiler. Isn't that a nissan maxima? UT did you pimp out the cellar car?

Nevar!!!
What we found is that some rear bike racks don't work if there's a spoiler on the trunk, making the Cellar Car the car of choice for that work. Also the Cellar Car was recently above 100 MPH for the first time, possibly in its life. It was brief, just to see how it would fare. The rear tyres did not lose traction. But IMO tw is right and an upgraded suspension would be a better bet than a spoiler, 100% of the time. But the Juke spoiler is not a spoiler, but just the usual |
Which kind of oil?
still waiting for my car. In the meantime, however, I invite your comments on the best kind of oil to use.
I hear people arguing passionately about the "dino v. synthetic" issue. I'm a bit confused, but seems to me after some cursory research that dino is okay for the first couple of years, then switching to synthetic may be better later. Keep in mind that the car I'm planning on buying is a turbo. |
I swear by 710 fluid.

Larger oil molecules made the debris less destructive. Machining to tenths of thousands of inches and other innovations made synthetics more practical. Oil that was once so fully contaminated in 4000 miles (or 500 miles in the 1950s) is now cleaner even after 8000 miles. So the advantage of larger molecules is no longer as significant. |

did you ever get your Juke, Cloud?
I got one yesterday, but I forgot about the spoiler, and of course, the SL I took does not have it. I walked past an SV in bright blue this morning that had it, and was reminded how much better it looks with it. meh.. I still like it a lot. |
no, the too-long wait and the numerous reported problems gave me cold feet. I finally got a RAV4 (reported in a separate thread).
Still talk to the Juke people. They have CEL problems, bad fit-and-finish squeaking problems, weird engine problems too. But they all say it's fun to drive! |
