New Altima has alloy wheels as part of package what is the point of alloy wheels?
They LOOK better, they are lighter in weight, they add value at trade in time. They are always over priced on new cars.
I bought a KIA Sorento with AWD. I read the owners manual and my understanding is that it is 2 wheel drive but kicks into 4 wheel drive only when it detects slippage. Is this correct?
I'm not a big fan of Kia but the AWD in the Sorento is nice. It normally delivers power to just one axle (the rear axle, I imagine). If the ABS sensors report wheel slippage it goes into AWD, where power is delivered to all the wheels in a reasonably balanced way, making it good for slippery streets. This is a real improvement in fuel economy and tire wear over full-time AWD, like the Subaru system. There is also a lock mode (if it is like the description in the first source), where it goes into actual 4WD operation with the front wheels locked except at high speeds. You want to avoid that mode on pavement and just use it off-road because it forces a front wheel to slip when you make turns and is murder on fuel economy.
my dwarf hampster doesnt go in its wheel, is it because its to fat or is it just normal?
Some hamsters never learn how to use a wheel and some grow out of it. There is nothing you can really do. Maybe try switching the type of wheel? If the wheel has slats or mesh as the flooring then try switching to a wheel with a solid floor.
is the audi a4 convertible four wheel drive? and how much does is cost?
A4 cabrios can be either all wheel drive (Quattro) or front wheel drive depending on the options selected. Engines range from the 1.8-2.0L turbo 4 cylinder to the 3.0-3.2 L V-6. Engine size depends on model year. The high end model is the V-6 Quattro. The quattro is a better all season car but the tradeoff is lower MPG. I wouldn't look at anything older than a 2004 and would go with the V-6 as the engine has a better reliability record than the 4. Expect to pay from $22K up to the mid-$30K range depending on age, mileage and equipment.

How is a wheel like a lever ?
The wheel can be likened to a whole series of levers, like spokes, all attached to the rim of the wheel. It will only ACT as a lever if it is a driven wheel, not free wheeling. There will be a load, an effort and a fulcrum. The effort will be applied as torque to the wheel axle. The load is the resistance to the wheel turning. The fulcrum is the axle centre. The load arm is the wheel's radius. The effort arm is the distance part of the torque, to the axle centre.
