Autos › Re: How to Ship your Car from North America to Nigeria! by ubiquitousade(m): 8:41pm On Jan 25, 2015
Export1:
Can I use my own transportation company?
We suggest to check with our shipping rates first, because many cars have to be consolidated in A container in order to get cheaper rates, and our shipping company can provide consolidation services to many destination points in the world. However, you are free to use your own transportation company, but you will need to send us a copy of the Bill of Lading after the vehicle shipped from USA / Canada.
Hello, I have a Rav4 2008 Model in Chicago, please how much will it cost to ship it to Nigeria using any of the shipping options?
A brief explanation will be appreciated.
Thank you.

rodeo0070:
Simply asked "please move your car". They jump into this "Do you know who I am" vexed remark. And woe betide you if you call their car a "carton"
the bolded is not enough for a right thinking car owner to wail and shout. only unnecessary contact/touching would cause trouble like 'why are u touching my car, bla bla bla'

and dat remark isnt necessary either.

my car is my property and i av to protect it

Car Talk › Re: Honda Odyssey And Toyota Sienna,which Is Better? by ubiquitousade(m): 11:46pm On Jan 05, 2015
nurey:
I won't talk much on comparing the two but out of the two cars, the sienna is the prefered choice and the reason is not far fetched, that car is a solid rock automobile built to work and last and last, also check around the first generation sienna is one of the most common cars in Lagos sha. Reason also why it is the prefered choice for long distance interstate transportation (east and north from west).
Now the toyota sienna comes in one engine variant
1998-2000 3.0L V6 193hp
2001-2003 3.0L V6 210hp
Spotting the difference between them
1. The traficator back light of the 98-00 is yellow while that of 01-03 is white
2. The 01-03 has between the driver and passenger cup holder and box compartment.
The sienna has 4 trim levels
1.CE (kpangolo edition) which I drive. This edition has two variants one with roof rack and another without roof rack, don't buy one without roof rack makes the car ugly. All other trims have roof rack
2.LE (luxury edition)
3. XLE (extra luxury edition)
4. Symphony edition
5. Toyota Gold (it could be ce, le, xle but the words and logo would be gold colour instead of silver).
Ce has bench instead of captain arm chairs but the good thing is the bench can sit 3 people (managing level)
The Le, Xle has a button to open the small back windows but for Ce you have to open manually
The Xle and symphony have power sliding doors, which means no need to use handle just press a button and wala, the door opens and closes not available for le and ce
The xle and symphony have speakers on frames and the symphony has a special entertainment system
Some sienna have side step rails which is very rear but can be found in any trim
The AC is ok because it has rear vents in all trims the ram in the boot will also benefit
The major issues you will face is the back shock absorbers its likely you will change them soon also the outside handles of that car are rubbish they tend to spoil easily so be very careful I have used mine for 7months and they haven't come off.
As for the boot, it has a mind of its own, it opens when it likes always make sure you open it with the key not the central lock cause it often misbehaves when central lock or central open is used.
Maintenance of that vehicle is minimal and will take abuse easily but don't abuse it. Don't always let the front slam on bumps it could cause severe damage to exhaust or even gear seal. Though the under is well protected with metal sheets.
Sorry for the long epistle if u need more info just ask
it is helpful

to answer the OP, I prefer d sienna. odysseys looks ordinary

Thank you OP

Stycon:
The core to self motivation is to become aware in its purest shape that we are born alone, and die alone, and therefore us and us alone, must decide how badly we want something and what we are willing to do to get it.
When we align our goals to realistic working expectations, we tend to hit more benchmarks as we progress towards those very same goals, enhancing our confidence along the way and re-enforcing our belief in ourselves.

Phones › What's Killing Your Battery? Android's Top 10 Performance-sapping Apps by ubiquitousade(op): 9:10pm On Nov 06, 2014
Is your phone or tablet battery constantly reduced to a sliver of red on the screen? New research has found the worst performance-draining apps on Android devices, and Facebook is the biggest culprit.

It may seem to consume every spare moment of our lives, but the world's most famous social networking app is chewing up our mobiles too, with Facebook topping a global list of the most performance-draining Android apps, which considered battery drain, storage consumption and data use.

But it's not just Facebook draining our mobile power -- a raft of other social apps, games and even bloatware are consuming more processing power, battery life and data than many of us realise.

The findings come from new research conducted by AVG which took anonymous data from more than 1 million AVG Android app users in order to collate a list of the worst offenders in the Android app world (measured over Q3 2014, based on apps with more than 1 million Google Play downloads).

Culprits included pre-installed apps pushed out by device manufacturers, with 3 of the 10 biggest battery draining apps that run on start-up coming from Samsung. News apps also warrant a mention, particularly those that update in real-time, with the New York Times' Breaking News app topping the list of the most storage-hungry apps we use.

But with 62 percent of the time we spend on Android tablets or smartphones dedicated to playing games, gaming apps warranted their own top ten. In these stakes, King, the developer behind Candy Crush Saga and other titles in the Saga series, took out the dubious honour of holding 4 of the top 10 spots for performance-draining game apps.

So what should you do if your battery life is dropping faster than all those sugar balls in Candy Crush? AVG recommends turning off app notifications, limiting refresh intervals, deleting your cache of temporary files and limiting the amount of data an app is allowed to download while you're not watching.

Car Talk › Re: What To Do Before Buying A Tokunbo Car by ubiquitousade(m): 9:30pm On Nov 03, 2014
Dotng:
I have had a kind of experience before. The mechanic approved the purchase of the car since he knew he will benefit from the repairs that had to be made. When I reviewed the matter with my mechanic recently (a very trustworthy one) he explained that sometimes some mechanics are afraid to prevent the buyer from making an obviously bad purchase because they are afraid that the seller may attack them spiritually.
that mechanic is only telling you such to cover-up.

which seller have the time to attack an unknown person spiritually? so what if you are the one that detected the fault, will the seller still attack you?

my opinion: also do a VIN check and don't rush into purchasing the car
