2010 Honda Civic Los Angeles,
It is important not to judge a book by it’s cover, but regrettably the vehicle we choose to drive makes a statement that forms our image which is then projected to the rest of the world. The type of car and brand that someone chooses to purchase can also be a form of expression. A two-seater sports car says : “I am single without a care in the world”, while a mini-van might suggest “I have a load of kids to haul off to soccer practice!”. These stereotypes may not be necessarily accurate or even close to the truth; they simply offer a glimpse as to how an individual might be judged and perceived due to their choice of car.
It is fascinating to see how the color, brand and type of auto can form an impression of you on others.
The size and type of vehicle that one drive reveals numerous facets about someone’s personality and disposition. Driving a SUV can reflect a desire of the owner to be trendy and fashion forward, as SUV’s seem to be the rage nowadays. Individuals who drive fuel efficient cars can be perceived as having a strong concern for the environment or possibly being frugal in regards to the price of gas. Drivers of medium sized sedans tend to be thought of as practical and concerned about utility and safety. Hybrid cars are generally associated with people who have strong proclivity towards protecting the environment and the earth’s resources while mini vans tend to be typically associated with large families.
A vehicle’s color can also reveal a significant amount about the driver’s personality and moods. A red car may indicate that the driver is a passionate, energetic and perhaps a little wild. Keep in mind that red cars are more noticeable and tend to receive more traffic tickets than any other colored car. Black cars symbolize authority, power and elegance and send the message that one is confident and self-assured. Drivers of white cars are perceived as safe, practical and serious-minded. Drivers of blue cars tend to be perceived as loyal, calm and wanting to blend in with the crowd rather than stand out and make a statement. Yellow cars and their drivers are seen as fun, confident and young at heart.
The brand of car that one drives also makes a statement about the driver. These ideas may be completely false, however, they are simply related to the brand of the auto maker which is then simply transferred to the consumer. For example, drivers of Mercedes Benz vehicles tend to be perceived as successful, powerful and of high status whereas Honda drivers are thought of more as practical and concerned with safety and function. Jeep drivers are thought of as spontaneous adventure seekers who enjoy a lot of outdoor adventures.
It is important to keep in mind that these stereotypes are by no means fact and they may be {completely untrue|totally inaccurate|completely false|entirely incorrect{}. Even though we may not like it|Although we may not agree with it|Although we may not like it}, we are frequently judged by others on our superficial exterior and that includes the auto that we drive. It might be helpful to keep these tidbits in mind the next time you decide to buy a new vehicle.

We’d all like to reduce or eliminate our reliance on gasoline for a variety of reasons. In spite of great strides in emissions reductions, gasoline engines are still a major factor in air pollution. America’s appetite for oil from distant countries plays a large role in our economic and foreign relations policies. Switching to a form of energy that could be created in the United States could only improve the situation. These are laudable goals, and it’s good to see Americans thinking of long-term goals that will be good for the country as a whole. Many people are even willing to pay a little more than necessary to help achieve these goals, but there is a limit. Alternative forms of energy won’t really gather long-lasting momentum until they become cost effective for the majority of consumers. Continue Reading »

The Britt’s call them Landys, but in the US we call them by their God-Given name, Land Rovers. As the name suggests, these super duty, all terrain vehicles come from a long lineage of rugged explorers that could trek through mud, cross flooded paths and even climb mountains with ease. It’s a little heartbreaking that the Land Rovers cruising the American terrain today are reserved only for expeditions to covered parking lots, soccer games and jaunts to the grocery store. Even their look has changed, once comprised of iron, grit and a collection of smashed bugs in the grill, the modern day versions have evolved into sleek and highly manicured purebreds. However there is still something ruggedly handsome about the Land Rover. Perhaps it’s large front bumper that rests below the double bar grill with the signature honeycomb design. Or the distinctive perforated side vents and wide wheel base that add to the Land Rover’s athletic appearance. Continue Reading »
Toyota has recently launched the largest recall in its history with over 4 million Toyota and Lexus models identified with potential safety issues. Last fall the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration received a flurry of reports that driver’s side floor mats were dislodging and causing the accelerator pedal to get stuck. The problem received national attention when a highway patrol officer and his family were killed. The officer’s Lexus crashed after traveling over 120mph as a result of a stuck gas pedal. Apparently the vehicle could not be stopped by the brakes alone. Toyota responded by issuing a safety alert recommending that Toyota and Lexus owners remove the driver’s side floor mats and not replace them until Toyota could investigate the matter further. The National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration also issued an alert in which they strongly urged owners of these vehicles to remove mats or other obstacles that could lead to unintended acceleration. The models with potential safety issues are: Continue Reading »
