Editorial Review :
The X-wing has been continually updated throughout its design lifetime. The original T-65B fielded by the Rebel Alliance was a competent strike fighter for its time, but was soon supplanted by the T-65CA2, boasting improved acceleration. The T-65CA3 improved the avionics, shields and sensors; the T-65CA4 was primarily another engine upgrade, which made it nearly the equal of the A-wing in maneuverability. This kit is quick to assemble and requires no glue or painting, it has illustrated assembly instructions, movable wings and laser cannons, movable cockpit cover, can be assembled with or without undercarriage and includes 2 figures. Some assembly required.

Questions & Answers
Question : What do the laptops in police vehicles do?
Hi, I was just wondering, what do the laptops in police vehicles do?And this may be off topic but how do police know their way around town? Does the laptop have a GPS in it or are police officers allowed to get their own GPS and place it in the vehicle?
Answer:
They post messages on Facebook, read their email, and play Grand Theft Auto.Besides that they can check if a vehicle is stolen, taxed or insured. Also check your criminal record.I suspect the laptop would not have GPS since that would be installed on the dash.

Question : What current vehicles would make good survival bug out vehicles?
I have been looking into survival and bug out gear on the internet and youtube videos. They say 4X4 vehicles with diesel engines are the best for bugout vehicles. What vehicle would you choose?
Answer:
I'm not a vehicle expert but i do know a little about emergency preparedness. I get the the Newsletter from FrontierSurvival.com and they had a little info in the last one about bugging out. Here is a quote from the them on bug out transportation"Transportation: You may also want to keep your car's tank at least half full, since gas pumps may not work if there's no electric power. By the time you reach a gas station, you may be likely to find it sold out - or charging exorbitant prices, because the owners know you didn't have any choice but to pay what they ask. Much better to leave with a full tank of gas, and enough in spare containers to fill up on the road, if you have to, in order to reach your destination. And remember a big vehicle can be a handicap. It's not a bad idea to have smaller, more maneuverable vehicles, and a smaller travel trailer, so that one can "squeeze through" in a tight traffic situation. Another point a big SUV or pickup burns a lot of fuel. This is bad news when there's no fuel available!"

Question : How many Japanese vehicles sold in the US are imported from Japan, and how many are domestic?
I'm guessing about 5 percent of Japanese vehicles, like the Toyota Prius, are imported from Japan. Am I close?
Answer:
It really depends on the model...The Toyota Prius sold internationally is solely built in Japan (in one of two plants), but all Prius built in China are sold in China.Toyota does report on the number of domestically-built models it sells in a year. For year end results, look at the December numbers posted in January. for 2008: http://pressroom.toyota.com/pr/tms/08-december-sales.aspx?ncid=12036 Of those Toyota models that have North American production besides the Japanese production (such as the Corolla, Camry, pickup, etc.), about 55% of those models sold in the US are built in North America. You'll have to use the given numbers to figure out actual domestic sales, though.You'll have to check with other "Japanese" manufacturers to find out how many of their models are produced in the US...

Question : How many environmentally friendly vehicles are getting stuck in the snow?
As the UK freezes, most small engined and battery-powered vehicles are either dead, useless, abandoned or garaged because they just aren't built to cope with temperature extremes and severe weather.The older, bigger, high-polluting vehicles all seem to be functioning really well.Does this spell the end for this so-called green revolution?
Answer:
Well, I've just watched a fire engine crew get stuck in the snow outside my house. There were 6 of them trying to dig it out.But I know what you mean. My next car will be 4 wheel drive, cos that's the only thing that seems to be moving in this snow. And I don't give a whatsit if it's green or not.

Question : How can hybrid vehicles contribute in reducing pollution?
Hybrid vehicles are produced with the help of electrolysis, and if Ethanol is used in the process, then the electricity generation is still less & hence, these vehicles are taken as helpers in reducing pollution. I need a few examples of hybrid vehicles & how do u think they can further reduce pollution? Please use simple terms, and kindly answer my question.
Answer:
Hybrid vehicles are a new product of the automobile industry. Such vehicles are becoming more illustrious as they are very efficient and reduce pollution........................................................................................... .....................................................Environmental ImpactsAir Quality:Hybrid vehicles offer a great improvement on the air quality emissions for vehicles that are powered by gasoline. According to The Green Car Club, hybrids reduce health-threatening tailpipe emissions by 90% and evaporative emissions to almost zero. (The Green Car Club) The hybrid vehicle does contribute to green house emissions just at a reduced rate because the fuel that powers the hybrid comes from a petroleum based fuel. Fuel Production:The pollution associated with the production of fuel for hybrids is the same as the pollution created in the production of fuel for gasoline vehicles because they both use gasoline. The pollution is somewhat reduced for a hybrid vehicle because the vehicle has greater fuel efficiency. There is considerable pollution related to the production of gasoline. Gasoline contains MTBE which is a known cancer causing agent and can cause birth defects if a pregnant mother is exposed to it. Petroleum extraction and transportation has led to some of the worst ecological disasters that the planet has seen. When the Exxon-Valdez capsized it released millions of gallons of petroleum onto pristine coastlines. The environmental damage was monumental. The destruction of the rainforest is rarely associated with petroleum extraction. However the discovery of vast oil reserves and the subsequent drilling of these reserves in Venezuela and other Latin American countries near the equator, has led to the destruction of tropical rainforests. Vehicle Production Pollution:The production process for the hybrid vehicle is very different than the production process of a gasoline vehicle. There are similarities especially in regards to the production of the gasoline powered engine. Thus the production of the gasoline powered engine in the hybrid is similar to that of a gasoline powered vehicle however the addition of the electric engine increases the environmental impact of the production of the hybrid vehicle. The greatest environmental impact comes from the pollution caused by the elaborate battery system that powers the electric engine. The battery pollution is substantial because the creation of the batteries requires destructive mining to produce the batteries and the caustic substances that power the batteries must later be disposed of. The caustic substances that power the batteries are very poisonous and when released into the environment leech into the waterways and poison groundwater. .................................................................................................... ............................................Hybrid vechiles 1) Toyota Prius2) Honda Civic Hybrid3) Honda Insight4) Ford Fusion Hybrid -[2010 car of the year]5) Mercury Milan HybridThis link may help also:http://www.nrdc.org/energy/plugin.pdf

Question : Why are vehicles costing more to get repaired than the actual price of the vehicle itself?
If the costs of vehicle repairs goes up, shouldn't the value of vehicles go up as well. There's no way in hell, that there ever should be a vehicle that costs more to be fixed and repaired than the actual vehicle is worth. In these few years, repair costs from mechanics have been outrageous. It's a big fraction of the already actual blue book value of the vehicle from the very first repair ever.
Answer:
If you take your car to be repaired at a new car dealer - then of course the cost of repair will be high in order to induce you to buy a newer (implied) care free car. If you're smart you take your car to a local reputable car repair clinic and have the work done, at about the cost of 1/4 of the cars worth! However, let us say that if you have to spend $$$$ on repairs - you should consider trading. I've had the same car for over 18 years - over that time frame - it has cost as much to repair as it did to buy the car. However, that included such things as regular replacement of batteries, tires, windshield wipers, brakes and Smog checks and state fees. I never added up the Insurance or gas.

Question : Vehicles and big trucks consistently use my driveway when trying to make a three point U turn?
Many vehicles, including parcel delivery trucks use my driveway to make three-point u turns. I live on a residential street. The street is narrow and vehicles take advantage of my driveway, which is wider than those of my neighbors. How can I discourage this behavior? Are there City ordinances (not where I live) or examples of the same situation that any body is aware of that could help me with this problem?Thanks!
Answer:
your driveway is your property.leave your car on the end of the drive to stop the trucks.you might want to speak to your council about getting signs at the end of the street saying "unsuitable for large vehicles" or even making the street one way.
