While it may be tempting and readily available, dish soap is not recommended for washing a car or truck. According to Consumer Reports, dish soap isn't formulated for use on a car's paint and even a gentle-on-hands dish detergent can be abrasive enough to strip away a vehicle's protective top coat.

The best soaps for washing vehicles are ones that are specifically formulated for this purpose. They're milder than dish soap or laundry detergent - plus, they're designed to be used on car exteriors. For the best results, it's always advisable to use the recommended amount of water to dilute them according to the product's instructions.

It can be tempting to try to squeeze every last mile out of a tank of gas, especially when fuel prices are high. But putting off a fill-up until your fuel gauge is resting on "E" can be risky for your vehicle's fuel system components - and for your odds of making it to your destination safely.

Blind Spot Warning (BSW) systems may also be called Blind Spot Information systems, or Blind Spot Detection. BSW systems monitor the blind spots on both sides of your car. When a car is detected, a yellow or red indicator will light up in the side mirror or on the window frame. Some systems also provide a warning sound. These warnings help you avoid crashes that occur in blind spot areas. They are most effective when your car is passing, being passed, or preparing to make a lane change.

We all know someone who's named their car or truck - maybe it's you! Whether it's "Old Reliable," "The Beast," or something totally unique, we want to hear it.

For most people reading this, there's a good chance that one or more of these technologies is already tracking your movements when you go for a drive.
