Elsewhere, from the Questionable Ideas department, Mark wants to use his Ford Tempo to tow a trailer from Dallas to Pennsylvania; Jonathan is considering using a turkey baster to drain his car's power-steering fluid; and Missy's 18-year-old son wants to buy an Audi Quattro to keep on campus at Boston University.

Also, Will's secret mid-life crisis Porsche purchase may be a little harder to keep quiet, now that it needs a new transmission; Whitney's got a husband determined not to fill up his gas tank until he's down to the last drop; and Josh may need help from late night TV to get dried concrete off his Corolla.

Elsewhere, Judy's Mom got a book of New England home remedies that suggests leaving a blanket and lightbulb under the hood; Dennis is looking for a universal sign he can use to let other driver's know he made a bonehead move; and Fran's daughter might be a little too enthusiastic about inheriting Grandpa's old Town Car, which she's dubbed The Party Barge.

Also, Reine's husband may have gotten his wallet flushed along with an unnecessary radiator flush; and Bob's got a '65 Ambassador convertible for sale, and heard there might be a radio show host in the market for one.

This week on Car Talk, the Great Haircut Debate continues, as listeners weigh on whether it's ethical to use a roadside McDonalds' restroom without buying anything. On the automotive front, Ellen's mechanic says he can tell her Dodge Caravan is dying by the smell of its oil. Tom and Ray smell a conspiracy between the mechanic and Ellen's husband, who wants a new Volvo. Also, how a car's transmission is like the family dog; a book from 1922 might help fix Nikki's noisy Jeep; and on Stump the Chumps, we find out if John's sister duped him when she sold him his old VW Golf.

Car Talk, Dodge Dart, April 5, 2014, Hörbuch, Digital, 53min
This week on Car Talk, one listener's tribute to Tommy's dearly departed Dodge Dart will have William Wordsworth rolling over in his grave. "For in the spot where Dart once sat, there's now but oil stains." Later, Tom and Ray try to rescue a spoon trapped in one car's vents, and a 20-dollar bill trapped in a driver's door; and, on a slightly more urgent note, they try to keep Eric's engine from disintegrating. Elsewhere, Doug might become the Chuck Yeager of CV joints if he doesn't mind the risk of getting stuck on a railroad track; and can Environmental Studies major Carl do anything to ease his guilt over driving two ginormous gas guzzlers?

Car Talk, Who Moved My Alamo, March 3, 2012, Hörbuch, Digital, 53min
This week on Car Talk, Ray unleashes perhaps his best wacko conspiracy theory of all time--the relocation of the Alamo, and his own unsuccessful attempts to rectify the situation. This all takes place as Kelly from San Antonio waits to find out if her fiance's promiscuous use of a plug-in seat massager is responsible for her car's drop in gas mileage. Elsewhere, Marshall's Jeep is making a strange clunking sound, akin to being hit from behind by a Nerfmobile; Debbie's clutch is whistling a tune laden with hints of boat payments to come; and on Stump the Chumps, we find out if Eddie in New Hampshire got his truck started. All this, plus a creative, if incredibly insincere wedding invitation, and lots more, this week on Car Talk. [Broadcast Date: March 3, 2012] Language: English.
