| Article Title :: You Can Custom Fit Your Vehicle |
| |
| Part of the fun of owning a car is giving it your own look. Sure, some cars come fully equipped with all the bells and whistles, but they lack one thing: your personal touch. Starting back in the 1950s when customizing cars really took off, enthusiasts have been modifying their cars to suit their own purposes. Let’s take a look at some ways you can make your car a real stand out.Under the Hood: The most obvious customizing for your engine compartment is a cold air intake, designed to increase power to the engine.

| Article Title :: Headlights, Taillights, Foglights, and Turn Signals for Toyota, Honda, Jeep, BMW, and Ford |
| |
| Auto lights are indispensable in a vehicle; they serve as our extra eyes, especially at night and during low visibility driving conditions. Most of car accidents resulted from the driver’s inability to see upcoming vehicles and pedestrians and fixtures on the road, especially at night. Because of this, the use of lights like the headlights and taillights has been required by the law.Each kind of light in a vehicle serves a unique purpose. Generally, all lights help in improving the vehicle’s visibility on the road. They allow other drivers and pedestrians alike to see or easily spot your auto as it moves down the road. Although the sun provides natural light during the day, it (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Mercedes: Just How Low Should It Go? |
| |
| Back during the 1980s when Mercedes introduced its first “baby” Mercedes, the car was received with mixed reviews. Motorists loved the car, now a “C” series model, as it made a Mercedes automobile affordable for the middle class. On the other hand, critics worried that the esteemed Mercedes-Benz name would suffer as a car touching the price level of many ordinary American models would soon become part of the line up. Today, even smaller Mercedes are planned for the US market. Will this be a huge mistake for the German automaker or is Mercedes incorporating smart thinking?To the surprise of many Americans, the Mercedes brand isn’t as pompous or pretentious in Europe as it (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Retro Vehicles: Is Volkswagen Next? |
| |
| Retro styled vehicles are all the rage today and Volkswagen’s New Beetle was one of the first of many of these types of cars to show up on the market. Given VW’s long running popularity, other long since retired models are certainly worthy of being copied, don’t you agree? The Karmann Ghia, the Thing, and the Scirocco are a few that come to mind, however they aren’t the ones slated for a comeback. Yes, VW’s famous “Bus” or Microbus is scheduled to return, to the delight of aging hippies everywhere.Okay, first a quick test. Can you name some of the recent retro vehicles to hit North American highways lately? Besides the Volkswagen’s New Beetle, here are a few: (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Honda Sneak Peek: The Fit? |
| |
| Credit Honda with not giving up easily in what will certainly become a big fight: the sub $15,000 price range category of new automobiles. Currently, only a stripped down Civic competes in this area and I mean stripped: no a/c, basic tranny, no radio! With Toyota's Scion brand catching on Honda is looking to fight back. A tiny car now on sale in Japan may soon find its way to a dealership in your neighborhood helping to turn the tide for the revered automaker.So, why the big push in this "cheap" category? Chiefly because automakers know that if young and first time buyers have a very good experience with their entry level cars then more than likely they will stay with the brand as (read full article) |

| Article Title :: 2007 GMC Yukon: Still Too Much? |

Let’s take a look at many of the changes planned for the all new Yukon and then you can decide for yourself.General Motors has been itching to release the Yukon and a host of other full sized GMC/Chevrolet models to the public as soon as possible.

| Article Title :: Muscle Cars, Like Dinosaurs, Once Ruled The Earth |
| |
| Detroit, or the world, has never produced an automobile that rivals the muscle cars of the 1960’s and early 1970’s. They were big, powerful and wonderfully unrefined. No one would call them sports car in the traditional sense. They were not nimble and curves were dangerous at most any speed. However, what they lacked in sophistication they made up for in brut force. In many ways the GTO’s, Mustangs, Road Runners and their brethren represented the American character better than any vehicle past or present. Simplicity, dependability, strength and singularity of purpose were their calling cards. No one could confuse the purpose of these beasts. It was plain for all, and it was straight (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Famous Ford Flops |
| |

For the fun of it let’s take a look at some of the Ford models that have been derided down through the years.Model T – What?! How can the car that introduced mass production make the list? Well, the car was fine, but Mr. Henry Ford’s statement, “…you can have any color you want as long as it is black” has been attributed with the rise of General Motors [who gave its customers a choice in c (read full article) |
