100th Indy Auto Show

100 th Indianapolis Auto Show My family and I just got home from the Indy Auto Show. Detroit, Chicago and LA may have more elaborate shows featuring more concept vehicles, but Indy has a nice show with over 400 new vehicles on display. Here’s a few things that caught my eye: Hyundai had a fun display with two cars equipped for surviving the Zombie apocalypse. ( We all know how the Zombies are attracted to us humans, be sure you check the back seat before taking off!) Jeep did a good job with their display. It included an indoor track to test drive the new Jeeps on a simulated off road track. ( Don’t floor it, the tab will be yours ) The Toyota display had a simulated drag strip to test your response time to a race starting light tree. ( It’s always fun to see who has better reaction time between mom and dad.) State Farm has an interactive display to test your driving skills. ( See if you can drive as well as you do on the real road!) By far, Ford put

Customer Spotlight - Fond Memories of a Vintage Burgundy 1965 Mustang Fastback

He was in awe and every weekend "With Excitement" would look forward to his Grandfather's visits and to their weekend cruises. "It was love at first sight. I was bitten by the Mustang bug at an early age. Since a little boy, I repaired and wrenched on the cars, attended car shows, and acquired a love for just about anything go fast.” Never letting go of his dream to

How do I make sure the car I’m buying is safe?

How do I make sure the car I’m buying is safe? It was scary when I drove a tow truck in 1978. The cars back then did not have the safety features of today’s cars. When I came to an accident scene, it was impossible to always tell if and how bad the injuries might be. Cars and trucks did not absorb the energy crashes very well and very minor impact often caused serious injuries. The vehicles today are all much safer. Crumple zones are designed to allow the front and rear of the vehicle to absorb energy from a crash and keep it from the passenger compartment. Air bags have been proven to save lives, and now multiple airbags work together to form a safety zone. photo from www.autoblog.com Some cars are better than others. A new care shopper has access to safety ratings printed on the new car window sticker. . The ratings come from the industry recognized experts in safety ranking – the Insurance
