As you know by now, vehicles need regular maintenance to keep them running properly at all times. When you’re taking your automobile into the dealer for service, the mechanic does all the actual work on the vehicle. But for the service department to run efficiently, it’s the service manager that ensures that things are running smoothly. In order to have an efficient shop, the manager ought to have excellent service manager training.

A number of various certifications, work ecperience and education regarding the autimotive and business field are concerned in the training of a service manager. The service manager coaching wouldn’t only involve education to assist manage the mechanics, service advisors, and different service staff however produce a smart client experience also. The service manager position is very necessary for an auto repair shop or a automotive dealership.

If you are taking a look at the business aspect of a service manager, they’re ones who strive and keep prices as low as possible, while attempting to keep customers coming back by providing smart customer service. This can ensure the service center will keep itself profitable. As you’re able to see, the service manager has major responsibilities when it involves running a profitable department. This is why service manager training is so important.
There are many sorts of service manager training programs out there. The most effective programs will guarantee that the students of their programs get all the mandatory certifications, education, and experience. This permits every student to properly handle issues with anything that may happen in the department. Whether or not it be a client service problem, or a problem with the means a mechanic is fixing a vehicle, they can have to know everything that’s going on within the shop.

The education of the service manager is such a huge factor within the success of a service department that it is essential that they get the best service manager training available. There are few coaching programs available that are ready to train service managers in all of the factors that contribute to the success or failure of a service department.

What ought to you look for in a service manager training program? Well there are some things you ought to take into consideration. 1st, does it provide one on one training or is it classroom style? Typically one on one training works better than the regular classroom style setting. Second, will it provide coaching on both the mechanical side of the business and the profit side of the business? The service manager ought to learn advanced ways to increase profits. As an example, they must know the way to up-sell and use advance selling techniques to make sure that the business is getting all they can from each customer.

In order for all of us to understand what is going on in the world about the high price of gasoline. Let us look at one mans quest to make the engine a better and cheaper running machine, a quick history lesson if you will.

A lot of people think of the diesel engine with the black soot soaring upwards from large semi-trucks on the highways and byways of America.  We have all smelled the odor when they idle in a parking lot. If you have ever been in the Army you can remember the deuce and half trucks and their smell.

This is how the diesel engine has developed but was this the way its inventor imaged it, as an engine running on petroleum?  The diesel engine was invented by Rudolf Diesel and ran with success on its fuel of choice – PEANUT OIL !  

Diesel also tried out successfully with using whale oil but neither fuel was as prevailing or as easily available as petroleum.  At this time petroleum based oils were the most economically obtainable.
So the engine took the route of easy oil and you now know the rest of the story.

Rudolf Diesel had stated “The diesel engine can be fed with vegetable oils and would help considerably in the development of agriculture of the countries which use it”

And later predicted that “The use of vegetable oils for engine fuels may seem insignificant today. But such oils may become in course of time as important as petroleum and the coal tar products of the present time.”

You might be asking why hasn’t someone done something about this in the past 100 years?  Well, it has come full circle and we are now doing something.

Keeping the above mentioned history in mind and looking to our future, our affiliation with the oil industries and our addiction on foreign oil, hopefully, will motivate us to explore options with a more open mind. The many experiments that have lately come alive attest to what is possible if we are willing to change in a positive direction or maybe to go back to the primary vision of Rudolph Diesel and his engine.

Here a several of new advances moving full steam ahead:

1. From fat or vegetable oil through a chemical process called transesterification comes biodiesel an alternative fuel. This process breaks apart the glycerin from the fat or vegetable oil, creating two new products, glycerin and biodiesel. The most popular source for biodiesel is soybean oil, but poultry fats can also be used.

2. Ethanol, another clean-burning fuel has sparked interest in biodiesel which is being helped by new government standards and rising gas prices. A number of ethanol projects developing from corn, soft wood and other sources also are under way.

3. Also, today May 20, 2006 in the news, there is research being done in an early 1900s red brick armory at the Kossuth County fairgrounds in Iowa. The engine can run on a number of fuels including hydrogen, ethanol, natural gas, propane or digester gas from landfills. The company is initially focusing on making more efficient, environmentally friendlier engines to replace those used in generators and in forklift trucks, airline ground equipment, irrigation pumps, tractors and buses.

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 commands an increase in renewable fuel usage to 7.5 billion gallons in 2012 from 4 billion gallons in 2006. The bill also supports the alternative fuel industry with production incentives such as tax credits.

While parent company Honda continues to bestow all of its hybrid technology on its Honda division vehicles, Acura is doing without any alternate engine sources to power their cars and SUVs. Instead, the division is relying on newer gasoline engines to promote fuel efficiency as well as to lower greenhouse gas emissions. Is Acura doing enough or is Honda’s luxury division missing the boat? Big changes are headed Acura’s way, changes that could enormously overhaul the brand and bring to the market vehicles powered by a variety of alternate fuel sources. Let’s examine exactly what might be Acura’s alternate powerplant offerings at the beginning of the next decade.

Diesel, Biodiesel – Honda got into the diesel market late, but the company’s first offerings are considered to be exceptionally good. Four cylinder powered diesel engines are being developed that will initially appear in select Honda model cars within the next two years. These new engines meet current EPA guidelines and raise the typical fuel mileage of each car by about 30%. Importantly, each engine will be able to run on biodiesel a renewable resource made of ingredients such as soybeans.  Acura may get its own diesel aspirated engine soon after the launch of the first diesel powered Honda hits the market.

Ethanol – Unlike American based automakers, Honda has no plans to offer vehicles that can run on E85 technology. E85, consisting of 85% ethanol [usually corn] and 15% straight gasoline has been getting a lot of press attention lately. However, the extreme lack of service stations offering the fuel has kept demand low. Honda has decided to concentrate on next generation hybrid technology instead of branching out to E85.

Hydrogen – Claiming that the first hydrogen powered car will be ready for production within  the next 3 or 4 years, some are doubting that Honda will be prepared to make such a move until well after then. Look for Acura to only get a hydrogen powered car several years after the first Honda hydrogen vehicle has been successfully tested in Japan.

Pluggable Hybrid – To extend hybrid fuel economy even further, pluggable hybrid powered vehicles are currently being developed. Acura’s first hybrid may include this technology once Honda readies it for the market. Toyota is readying a similar model and Ford is doing likewise. 100 mpg may be a realistic figure once these vehicles are rolled out.

Natural Gas – A natural gas powered Acura isn’t likely to be produced, simply because Honda is investing in hybrid, diesel, and hydrogen technology above all else. Still, natural gas could be used in future fuel cell vehicles to make hydrogen. Thus, in an indirect way natural gas could power an Acura vehicle of the not-too-distant future.

So, although it would appear that Acura isn’t getting the same alternate fuel technology as the Honda division is at the moment, it would appear that all of that will change in the very near future. This is good news for people who enjoy the Acura brand, but want to see it expand to include options that are environmentally friendly and promote fuel efficiency.

Mercedes is about to release its all new E-Class to the European market this spring, with its North American debut scheduled for some time in the fall. Fresh on the heels of its successful launch of the all new S-Class, Mercedes is pinning much on these two lines to help turn their fortunes around. Indeed, Mercedes has found itself in the uncomfortable position of being in BMW’s rear view mirror, something that DaimlerChrysler is working hard on reversing by way of releasing new models. In any event, there is much to anticipate regarding the E-Class with a staggering 29 different model variations planned. Will you be amongst those waiting in fervent anticipation for the new Benz to arrive? Let’s take a sneak peek at just what Mercedes is planning to offer with its updated model.

Mercedes recently found itself in an odd position: trailing German rival BMW in their ongoing battle for sales supremacy. The news was hard for Stuttgart to swallow, but it has also served as a wake up call as parent DaimlerChrysler is now pouring some extra attention into its German luxury brand. Over the past several years the company’s American brands, commonly known as The Chrysler Group, have been the recipients of DCX largesse with Mercedes getting limited assistance, at least in the eyes of some critics. Now, with the S-Class on the market, with the E-Class soon to appear, and with other models being updated, Mercedes is poised to quickly regain the top spot that was wrested away by BMW.

The new E-Class features quite a number of changes including the following:

Pre-Safe is standard. This is Mercedes’ safety system that automatically adjusts seatbelt and seat settings in anticipation of a crash. In addition, the sunroof and windows automatically close up if a crash is pending.

Introduction of an Intelligent Light System. The E-Class’ headlights will automatically adjust according to the driving conditions. Big changes include enhancements to the fog light system for better vision, a widening of the vision field, and better use of cornering technology to have the headlamps cover areas previously outside of its range.

Ten engine choices. From four cylinder turbo diesels up to a 5.5L V8, the E-Class’s engine range will be incomparably better than any of its competitors. Indeed, a 514 horsepower E63 AMG version will also be released, making this model the most powerful E-Class every built.

Other improvements with the new model include a better air conditioning system, a retuned chassis, and more responsive steering. In addition, the entire front end has been redone with the emphasis on a more aggressive look for the new model.

Prices for the E-Class will start at just over $44,000 and go well over $100,000 for the AMG model. Will the E-Class help Mercedes recoup its lead? The smart money says yes, but not without a fight from BMW who is also rolling out several new models this year.

In all, the cars coming down the pike from Mercedes are worth a closer look and certain to spark more interest in the brand, something DaimlerChrysler sincerely hopes to achieve. With 29 variations offered, will the “wow factor” persuade you to purchase a Mercedes E-Class?

Step back in time with me if you would, about 20 years to be precise, to an era when automaker General Motors was busy making plans for their all new company, Saturn. This wasn’t to be just another GM division mind you as Saturn was created as a separate import fighting company meant to take on the likes of Toyota and Honda. By 1990, the first Saturn cars rolled off a bucolic Tennessee countryside assembly line signaling a new cooperation between workers and management. Immediately, the funky little “S Series” of sedans, wagons, and coupes were a hit and GM was soon lauded for taking a bold initiative.

Today, Saturn is much different from the brand that took on Japan’s top automakers. Instead of being a separate, wholly owned car company the make is now one of General Motors’ many automotive divisions. The S Series sold well and the introduction of subsequent models helped the brand, but ultimately parent GM decided to pull the company within the General’s fold as it chose to close down Oldsmobile instead. Current models being sold by Saturn are much different from what was originally offered, but the company has managed to keep one huge attribute that originally propelled the brand forward: people are first. Let’s take a look at Saturn’s current line up and the vehicles soon to be introduced.

ION – After a decade of service, the S Series was retired in favor of the comparably sized ION. Unlike the S Series, the ION does not include a wagon, but it does include a four door coupe and sedan. Unfortunately, the car is not very competitive with similar models and GM is looking at an Opel-inspired car to take its place by the end of this decade.

VUE – A recent makeover has kept the VUE, Saturn’s small SUV, competitive. In addition, a pending hybrid model is expected to strengthen the line and talk of an all new compact model showing up in 2009 has the auto world abuzz.

RELAY – Saturn’s first minivan is a clone to models sold by Chevrolet and Buick. Unlike earlier Saturn models which featured polymer side impact panels [to limit dents], the RELAY is all sheet metal and simply a copy of other divisions’ vehicles. Still, the RELAY has filled an important hole in the Saturn line up by offering a larger vehicle for loyal Saturn owners.

SKY – Forget what you might have thought about Saturn previously. The SKY roadster is a hit for one big reason: it is absolutely sexy. Sharing components with the Pontiac Solstice, the SKY has radically transformed the brand’s image all by itself. Priced under $25,000, the SKY is competitive with the Mazda Miata and is a low cost alternative to the BMW Z4.

AURA – Another vehicle built to battle the division’s bland image, the AURA steps in to the midsize category replacing the L Series which was discontinued two years earlier. Based on GM’s Epsilon platform, the AURA borrows heavily from GM’s German division — Opel – while incorporating a style and design that favors the Saturn SKY.

OUTLOOK – To be introduced before the end of 2006, the OUTLOOK will be Saturn’s first bigger SUV. Although considered to be a “crossover” by many, the OUTLOOK is a 7 passenger SUV meant to complement the smaller VUE. With the addition of the OUTLOOK in the Saturn fold, GM will take a break before tinkering with the Saturn line up.

Truly, Saturn of 2007 will look much different from Saturn of the 1990s. For years, Saturn dealers were content to sell only one model – the S Series – but today’s Saturn is going well beyond all of that. With a hybrid VUE in the line up and other variations of existing models also being planned, the once spartan Saturn line up is nearly filled to capacity. This is great news for Saturn loyalists looking for choices beyond the base models and a promise that GM is investing money in its import fighting division.

As you know by now, vehicles demands regular maintenance to keep them running correctly at all times. When you take your automobile into the dealership for service, the technician does all the actual work on the car. But for the service division to operate efficiently, it is the service manager who ensures that things are running smoothly. To be able to have an effective shop, the manager must have quality service manager training.

Service manager training will involve a number of various qualifications, work experience, and educations in the automotive and business fields. The service manager training wouldn’t only include education to assist manage the mechanics, service advisors, and other service staff but create a good customer experience also. The service manager position is incredibly essential for an auto repair shop or a car dealership.

If you take a look at the business part of a service manager, they are ones who try and keep costs as low as possible, while trying to keep clients coming back by providing good client support. This will ensure the service center will keep itself profitable. As you can see, the service manager has major responsibilities when it comes to operating a successful division. This is why service manager training is so vital.

There are many types of service manager training programs out there. The most effective programs will guarantee that the trainees of their programs get all the necessary certifications, training, and knowledge. This allows each individual to properly manage problems with anything that might happen in the department. Regardless of whether it be a customer service problem, or a problem with the way a mechanic is fixing a vehicle, they will have to be aware of everything that is happening in the shop.

The training of the service manager is a real substantial element in the success of a service department that it’s important that they get the best service manager training offered. There are very few training programs available that are capable to train service managers in all of the factors that lead to the success or failure of a service department.

What must you search for in a service manager training program? Well there are some things you must take into account. 1st, does it provide one on one training or is it classroom style? Typically private training functions much better compared to the regular classroom style setting. Second, does it offer training on both the mechanical side of the business and the profit side of the business? The service manager ought to discover advanced ways to increase profits. For example, they should know how to up-sell and use advance selling techniques to ensure that the business is getting all they can from every customer.

In your life there are some things that auto insurance can help you prevent in life: First it’s a way of protecting your investment in automobile(s), cars and other vehicles. More important if that car was bought new, you pay for medical bills caused by accident. This is a protection against the uninsured and underinsured car drivers, or call them motorists. Auto insurance is way to give yourself rest of mind any time you want to drive your car.

Getting insured:

Getting auto insurance for your car, you need to take few steps. First there is need for you to survey around and learn what insurance companies have to offer and weigh the pros and cons. Now there is need you to get insurance quotes from them so as to know what obtains as regards the rates as well as getting the best value for your money.

In the US we have some terrific insurance companies that you can go through for this, and this includes Kanetix for one. They are a great source of car insurance and their insurance quote comparison service brings consumers who are searching for reasonable car insurance rates in North America.

Most insurance companies in the US like the one I mentioned above not only offer auto insurance services but some other form of insurance like health insurance, motorcycle insurance and more. There are other fantastic companies you can turn to. You can check where they gist on auto insurance online

AAA

There is another option and great option for auto insurance, the AAA Company for example is great. Go to their website and you will surly find accurate quotes in a minute. They have been along time player in the insurance business. The time means you should be sure of getting value for money. Though I am not trying to promote any auto insurance company here.

Still on car insurance, over the years, many auto insurance companies have developed the innovative of having exclusive products that have succeeded over night. Therefore are you seriously looking for a good insurance company without breaking the bank? Go find gist on insurance companies online. Majority of these companies are good to become more familiar with.

Like I said earlier, do thorough search or visit sites where they discuss insurance issues or shop around at a few different companies so you can find the best value and spend the lowest money.

Sometimes an automaker will introduce a vehicle based upon the platform of a “lesser” model. Typically, this plan is employed when costs need to be cut to realize real savings. The theory is that the shared platform can be tweaked enough to distinguish the upscale model from the ordinary one. Add in leather, a taut suspension, and upgraded powerplant options and you can probably pull it off. For Audi, the introduction of the all-new Audi A4 during the mid1990s allowed the German automaker to capitalize on the success of the Volkswagen Passat, a midsize car from its European cousin. The plan worked, but it was only a temporary move. Let’s take a look at the Audi A4 and its surge to the top of German automotive excellence.

For years, the Audi 80 defined the smaller cars in Audi’s line up. By the early 1990s, the aging model was in need of updating and the name itself would need to be changed with the two digit alphanumeric model designation recently adopted by Audi. Cost pressures, however, made the development of an all-new from-the-ground-up model impossible. Instead, Audi tapped Volkswagen and based the original Audi A4 upon the successful VW Passat.

Platform sharing has been common amongst automakers for generations. General Motors regularly spreads it platforms across brand lines while Toyota and Honda have learned that their respective Lexus and Acura luxury makes could share much with their high quality and successful standard brands.

Still, the wheels of autodom are always turning and the original Audi A4 is now in its fourth generation and is built on its own platform. Indeed, the newest Audi A4 shares nothing with its VW cousin and is poised squarely to do battle with the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C Class, the Volvo S60, and Cadillac’s Swedish built BLS.

So, what does today’s Audi A4 owners get for the money? Quite a lot! Read on:

A choice of three models including a sedan, a wagon, and a cabriolet

Two engine choices: a 2.0L I4 and a robust 3.2L V6

Front wheel drive or Quattro all wheel drive

A plethora of transmission choices including manual, automatic, and manumatic shifters

Major safety initiatives including power assisted safety restraints, head and side air bags, antilock brakes

12 way power seat for the driver

Leather, aluminum, and clothe appointments

Premium 10 speaker sound system

16 inch, 5 spoke alloy wheels

Base prices start around $28,000 for the sedan and climb to just over $37,000 for the cabriolet; all prices are slightly lower than competing models from Mercedes and BMW.

Fortunately for Audi A4 lovers, the German automaker isn’t holding still and plans for a fifth generation Audi A4 are underway. The newest model may switch to rear wheel drive and a coupe is receiving serious scrutiny. Regardless of the final decisions, Audi A4 owners know that their favored model will keep up with the competition. This is great news for those wanting a car incorporating German engineering without the Mercedes or BMW price tag.

Toyota’s Scion brand has been a runaway hit for the Japanese automaker ever since being launched in 2003. Designed to appeal to Generation “Y” buyers, the vehicles are popular, edgy – some would say ugly – and have given Toyota an important toehold with young buyers. GM, Ford, and Chrysler are preparing to respond to Scion, but in different ways. GM is planning to import more vehicles from its Daewoo subsidiary while Ford and Chrysler are expected to build all new Scion fighting vehicles in Mexico, good news for motorists looking for affordable and quality vehicles. Let’s take a look at what’s coming down the pike.

For the record, Scion isn’t the only vehicle made for the Generation Y crowd. Honda’s Element and soon to be released Fit subcompact are Scion competitors while the Chevy Cobalt, Dodge Caliper, and Saturn ION are also aimed toward youthful drivers. With that being said, Dodge [Chrysler] and Ford must respond and it appears that both automakers will be fielding Scion fighters within the next two years.

The Dodge Hornet

Lo and behold, Dodge is nearing the finalization of its plans to build the Dodge Hornet. According to industry sources including Edmunds, the Hornet will be based on the VW Polo, a subcompact car built by Volkswagen and popular in the European market. This deal is amazing as Volkswagen and Mercedes [a DaimlerChrysler division, as is Dodge] compete fiercely, especially in Europe. VW has a plant in Mexico that likely will produce the Hornet as the company has excess capacity and the cost advantage that no American manufacturing plant can offer. For its part, VW gets to sell rebadged versions of the Dodge Caravan minivan.

If based on the Polo, the Hornet is expected to use the Polo’s 1.6L engine and be paired with a VW transmission. Beyond that, look for the vehicle to be closer in appearance to the Scion xA design, sport a five door hatchback design, and seat five passengers. Currently, the xA sells for just over $13,000, so expect the Dodge to compete at or below the Scion price.

The Ford Bronco

Don’t expect Ford to sit back and watch from the sidelines as the market trends toward more Scion-like vehicles. In 2004 a concept Ford Bronco, taking styling cues from the 1966 Bronco truck, made its appearance at auto shows. Now, Ford appears ready to go ahead with the Bronco which will also be built in Mexico.

Featuring a boxy design, the Bronco will be similar in design to the xB and to the Hornet and will likely be built on the existing Fiesta platform to hold costs down. Indeed, Ford is hoping that a budget Bronco will sell for less than $10,000 as it battles cheap imports expected from China as well as other Generation “Y” vehicles on the market.

Yes, the car wars never end and more battles are certain to ensue. Both Nissan with its Versa and a tiny Toyota by the name of Yaris will soon be released and competing on the market before the Hornet and Bronco arrive in 2008 as 2009 models.

One of the most well known names in autodom is poised to get its first major overhaul in nearly thirty years. Ford’s Crown Victoria, introduced in 1979, has had only minor changes since its introduction, but a new plan by Ford to overhaul the crown jewel of its fleet is apparently in the offing. Thanks to government assistance – Australian to be exact – the new Crown Victoria will be a clean break from the current model and will help to spawn additional models for siblings Mercury and Lincoln. Yes, you may not have considered a Crown Victoria up to this point, but the coming new “Crown Vic” may just change your mind about that.

You have to go back all the way to the late 1970s to when “downsizing” was a term used by the auto industry to describe a shell game where large cars were dropped down a notch in size to sit on a platform slightly smaller than the previous model. Indeed, throughout the 1970s Ford’s full size offerings the LTD/Galaxie 500 were huge beasts of burden. By the time the then new Galaxie 500 Crown Victoria was released at the end of the decade, Ford was playing catch up to General Motors who had earlier mastered the whole downsizing strategy.

Initially, the Crown Victoria had a broad appeal for drivers wanting a big car with all of the trappings. As time went buy the car grew less and less desirable as consumer tastes changed, but the Crown Victoria’s style did not. As a pursuit, government, or fleet vehicle the Crown Victoria has done very well, but Ford has only made modest improvements to the car over the years. Indeed, America’s #2 automaker has invested heavily in trucks, vans, SUVS and select cars, but the Crown Victoria quickly began to show its age. Today’s model is terribly outdated and it hasn’t had a thorough refreshing in more than a decade, so an overhaul is warranted.

Ford’s impetus for change is coming from an unlikely source: a foreign government. According to news sources, Ford’s Australian operation has received a $1.4 billion grant from Australia to build a production and research facility that will be used to design and build several new models. One of the Australian cars slated to benefit from this move will be the Ford Falcon, a full sized car that will become the basis of the all-new Crown Victoria.

While some have theorized that the new Crown Victoria will be built in Australia and imported to the U.S., this is unlikely to happen. Instead, Ford will expand the Falcon’s production to at least one U.S. plant, make some technical refinements, and sell the car as a Crown Victoria. It will be targeted to police departments and fleet buyers primarily with some residual sales for personal buyers. In addition, the Crown Victoria will spawn a new Mercury Gran Marquis while a slightly stretched and much more elegant version of the car will become the replacement for the current Lincoln Town Car.

Yes, the Crown Victoria is well past its useful age. Thanks to some help from down under, the 2010 model should be a refreshing change. At least Ford hopes you will think so.

The Lincoln Continental is a vehicle that is crafted and manufactured by the Lincoln brand of the Ford Motor Company in the United States. This is a line of luxury cars, and for most of its lifetime, the name, Lincoln Continental, has often been used in reference to the Lincoln flagship that displayed four doors. This vehicle was initially developed as Edsel Ford’s personal vehicle. This vehicle has often been rated as one of the most beautiful vehicles ever crafted the world over.

This vehicle has been substantially updated in the middle of the 1990s decade. It received more rounded lines thus exuding a more aerodynamic exterior. For 1995, it reigned and received a reputation as a unique Lincoln vehicle and was recognized as a luxury car. Its V6 engine was replaced through the addition and use of the same DOHC Modular V8 that was installed at the rear of this vehicle. Constant updates were made and in 1998, it displayed a new exterior. After a year, side airbags were put in place and the vehicle gained more power. The last of the Lincoln Continental kind was manufactured in 2002 and was replaced by the Lincoln Zephyr.

For the last set of changes, the Lincoln Continental delivers comfort with its fullness that is packed with technology, and computer electronics that are applied to it. This has allowed drivers to tailor suspension dampening and steering effort so as to suit their own personal taste and style in driving. It costs lesser than the Cadillac and the Lexus luxury sedans and could consider the Buick Park Avenue as its competitor. For the last year that it was crafted, it came with the standard features like leather upholstery, self-leveling rear suspension, anti-lock brakes, traction control, side impact air bags, dual front air bags, and a memory system for the driver’s seat and mirrors. It held a 4.6 liter V8 engine that powers the front wheels with a four-speed automatic transmission. What was given as an option is a Vehicle Communication package that includes a hands-free voice-activated, digital/analog Motorola Timeport phone, however this requires a Sprint PCS plan. It has voice-activated news, weather, sports, and stock quotes. With the Safety and Security Services, or SOS, button, it can summon emergency roadside assistance and it also activates automatically if the air bags are deployed.

The Lincoln Continental sports the Lincoln waterfall grille that blends neatly with the headlamp clusters. It also has a brightly trimmed front end with massive tail lamps that seem to wrap around the muscular rear quarters. The front fenders, hood, and deck lid has been specifically made with a sheet-molding compound that is very resistant to dents and damages. Overall, it exudes a round, organic, yet solid and impressive impression.

Lincoln Continental owners and Lincoln owners need not worry about their Lincoln Continental parts and auto parts like engine parts, hoods, mirrors, and wheels, for these have been made available on the internet with Lincoln Parts and Car Parts’ online store.

From the MX Crossport concept, it has now come to become known as the 2007 Mazda CX 7. This vehicle is a midsize crossover sport utility vehicle model. And the Mazda CX 7 is actually the production version of the said concept car. Built in Hiroshima in Japan, this vehicle went out to be known by the public during last January’s 2006 Los Angeles Auto Show.

Like Mazda, Same Day Car Parts never compromises satisfaction when serving customers. Dependable and long lasting Mazda replacement parts, performance parts, and accessories make up its stock that is counted to be over a million in number. The list of Mazda parts included in its collection include accessories, auto parts, body kits, body parts, engines, engine parts, performance parts, and truck parts among many others.

This vehicle has been created and mounted on an all new platform rather than the rumors that it would be having the very same platform that the Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers would be using – the Ford/Mazda CD3 platform. However, the Mazda CX 7 would be using a new one. Alongside with that, the Mazda CX 7 will also be having a front suspension system that the Mazda MPV minivan also uses as well as a rear suspension system shared with the Mazda 5. As per most of the all wheel drive system components as well as the turbocharged engine, these would be coming from the Mazda Mazdaspeed 6. Made available for the new Mazda CX 7 is a six speed sport automatic transmission system.

As previously mentioned, the Mazda CX 7 will be using a turbocharged engine that is also used by the Mazda Mazdaspeed6. This engine will power the Mazda CX 7 machine. It actually holds 2.3 liters and it is a straight four MZR engine. It has been crafted so as to be able to produce some 244 units of horsepower at 5000 rpm and some 258 pound feet of torque at a low of 2500 rpm.

The Mazda CX 7 comes as a complete package of various features. Included in the list of all the features is a fully independent suspension system, four wheel ventilated disc brakes with standard four wheel anti lock braking system (ABS), a Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system, a Traction Control System (TCS), a front wheel drive, and Mazda’s active torque split all wheel drive. As per the active torque split all wheel drive, there actually is computer controlled coupling that feeds up to fifty perfect of the engine’s torque to the Mazda CX 7′s wheels.

Jim O’Sullivan, president and CEO of Mazda North American Operations says about the Mazda CX 7, “Mazda President Hisakazu Imaki is committed to bringing new products to market and expanding our line of vehicles. The addition of the Mazda CX 7 is great news and a critical step forward for us in North America. To successfully grow our business, we have to be true to our core values and for any vehicle to wear the Winged-M logo on the grilled, it must have the soul of a sports car. I am convinced this vehicle will deliver.”

Carlsson E-Class Cabriolet

German tuner Carlsson have turned their attention to the new Mercedes E-Class Cabriolet resulting in a new aerodynamic body kit, customised interiors and new wheels. 

There’s a new front spoiler  and spoiler lip (also available in carbon), plus a rear spoiler.  The whole cars sits lower on its sports suspension, down by 30mm.

There is nothing quite as exciting as owning an antique car. And, if the antique car is also equipped with a working antique car radio you will certainly experience a most unique thrill. Unfortunately, things can break down and this can easily happen to your antique car radio. Repair as well as restoration of an antique car radio often requires replacing defective parts with genuine antique car radio parts.

Hard to Find

In today’s world, it is hard to find genuine antique car radio parts – mainly because such parts are generally not being manufactured since there is no real demand for the parts other than from a select few owners of antique car radios. Nevertheless, there are many companies that specialize in repairing as well as restoring antique car radios and they are the ones that will also know where it is possible to buy genuine antique car radio parts.

In fact, the modern car radio repair shop will be able to do a good job of repairing and restoring the antique car radio as long as they have ready access to antique car radio parts. Once they are able to find the required antique car radio parts they can then use modern technology and combine it with the craftsmanship of days gone by and fix any kind of defect in your antique car radio.

From tubes to power vibrators to buffer capacitors to any other kind of antique car radio parts the better antique car radio repair and restoration shops will be able to use these parts to fix almost any kind of problem. In case, the antique car radio requires restoration such repair and restoration shops will be able to do a complete makeover of the chassis and cabinet as too to the dial – even if it involves having to replace parts such as the knobs.

You should also ask for a warranty on the repair or restoration work done by the repair shop and often you can get ninety days warranty on the parts and service while it is also possible to get an entire year’s warranty on the tubes.

If you own an antique car or a classic car then you will need to worry about getting antique classic car insurance. Unfortunately, these kinds of cars attract a separate kind of insurance policy as compared with standard insurance policies. The good news is that this kind of insurance is not all that hard to find because quite a few insurance companies have special policies for these kinds of cars.

For the past several months news reports have been focusing on the declining fortunes of the world’s largest automaker, General Motors, as well as on the rise of Toyota to pre-eminence. Many are predicting that this will be the year that Toyota overtakes General Motors in sales while others are expressing caution regarding this assessment. Does it really matter who is number one? In many ways it does. Let’s examine the fortunes of the Top Two to determine whether Toyota’s quest to overtake General Motors will happen this year.

So, why does it matter who is the top selling automaker in the world? In one word: prestige. Being number one in any category tells consumers that you are at the top of your game. No, there isn’t anything wrong with being number two – just ask Avis – but saying that “we try harder” doesn’t equate into being number one no matter how cute your commercials may be.

General Motors’ decline combined with Toyota’s ascension is remarkable. At one time, General Motors produced well over half of all vehicles sold in the U.S. Today, that number is down to about 25% and falling. Toyota, on the other hand, has gone from being the maker of poor quality cars to being a manufacturer that everyone points to when building their vehicles. A true “benchmark” in an industry overloaded with manufacturers.

Originally, many thought that the Toyota ascension would not occur before 2010, if ever. Although General Motors is losing market share, it does have a strong presence elsewhere especially in China where it is the number one automaker and double digit sales growth from year to year is common. Thus, the overseas market has been what has kept GM strong.

GM’s home market though may be what causes the capitulation. With planned layoffs and plant closings in progress, GM is dumping excess capacity in favor of anticipated need. Toyota, on the other hand, cannot keep up with capacity as demand for its three lines of vehicles — Toyota, Lexus, and Scion — continue to drive growth. Indeed, if there is factory space available, Toyota will use it to produce more vehicles. So, the prediction for Toyota overtaking GM is based largely on available capacity and demand.

Toyota, however isn’t about to claim the #1 position so easily. In 2005, General Motors sold the most cars that it has since 1978, so things are not as gloomy as thought when looking at the company from a global perspective. Growth in China, capacity through its Korean subsidiary Daewoo, and renewed interest in several new or modified home grown models may stem the bleeding. Some are thinking that GM has cut back as far as it needs to go and with new models online including pick up trucks, SUVs, the Saturn SKY and Aura, and others GM may be poised for a surge in sales.

None of us can predict the future, but it does show us one thing: the battle for automotive pre-eminence will only grow stronger and neither automaker can afford to take anything for granted. For consumers just like you, you stand to benefit as quality improvements and pricing strategies give you the best bang for the buck.

Car accidents are some of the most serious and deadly accidents. If you or a loved one has been involved in a car accident, you could suffer an injury to virtually any body part, depending on the impact and size of the vehicle(s) involved. While head, neck and back injuries are the most common, car accidents can also injure your limbs and internal organs.

The following are some of the most common car accident injuries:

Brain and Head Injuries

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a very serious injury that can result from a motor vehicle accident. When extreme force traumatizes your brain, you could suffer a TBI. These brain injuries are most common in side-impact collisions than in rear-end crashes. Because TBIs can be difficult to diagnose, some indications you may have suffered a brain injury include:

A concussion
Headaches
Dizziness
Difficulty concentrating and being easily confused
Memory loss
Depression or anxiety

Neck and Spinal Cord Injuries

Neck injuries often result from car accidents. These injuries can range from whiplash to disc injuries. Whiplash is most common with rear-end crashes, as your soft tissue, nerves and ligaments become injured. The result is neck pain, limited neck movement and poor peripheral vision.

If your delicate spinal cord tissue becomes bruised, torn or crushed, this leads to spinal cord injury. Once your spinal cord has been injured, messages will no longer flow through the damaged area. This basically cuts off information between your brain and specific parts of your body. As a general rule, the functions of your body located above the point of injury will work as they did prior to the accident, but the areas below the point of injury will be impaired.

Internal Injuries

There are a number of internal injuries that can result from a car accident. You could suffer internal damage to your:

Liver
Lungs
Aorta
Bowels
Kidneys
Heart

Broken ribs are also a common outcome of a motor vehicle collision. Fractured ribs are very dangerous as they can puncture your internal organs and lead to catastrophic consequences. Another common internal injury is a ruptured spleen, which is dangerous and can require extensive hospitalization.

Upper Limb Injuries

Fractures in your upper limbs are frequent in car accidents. The bones in your hands, wrists and fingers are small and fragile, so a significant impact can easily snap them. Lacerations and road rash are also common on your upper limbs, from shattered glass, automobile fragments and contact with the pavement. Upper limb injuries can also affect your:

Arms and forearms
Shoulders
Collar bone

Splinting, casting and stitches can often repair these injuries. However more severe accidents can require extensive surgery. Physical therapy may also be necessary for you to regain your range of motion.

Rotator cuff injuries are another common upper limb casualty. MRIs are used to diagnose a rotator cuff tear, although many doctors wait to complete physical therapy before recommending an MRI. Severe shoulder injuries require reconstructive surgery.

Lower Limb Injuries

Lower limb injuries are also frequent in car accidents, as these extremities may become pinned or smashed. Fractures, sprains, muscle tears and dislocations can occur anywhere in the lower torso. You may suffer trauma to your:

Hips and pelvic bone
Legs and knee joints
Shins and ankles
Achilles tendon
Feet and toes

Will success at Firestone be the measure of Woods’ game?

The first time Tiger Woods played at Firestone Country Club he was an amateur, probably 15 or 16 years old. He played with his dad and no, before you ask, he doesn’t remember his score.

“It wasn’t very good,” Woods said with a wry grin softening the well-known face now bearing a goatee.

Even so, the future world No. 1 could see why the Robert Trent Jones redesign had stood the test of time and was such a favorite of the pros. It became his, too — after all, no one has had more success on the South Course than Woods.

He’s played in the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational 10 times and won seven titles. In fact, Woods has never finished lower than fifth on the South Course in any tournament he’s played there.

Small wonder, then, that many people think this week is a litmus test for Woods; that his performance at the Bridgestone Invitational is a harbinger for the state of his game and prospects for the rest of the season.

Woods, though, doesn’t see things quite the same way. Yes, the South Course fits his eye, and certainly, he’s prospered there. But it’s a different week and another year, and one unlike he has ever experienced.

“Whether I’ve had success or not … it’s about placing the golf ball in the right spots around the golf course, and that doesn’t change,” Woods said. “That didn’t change last week, won’t change this week, won’t change next week.”

Woods is playing in his eighth tournament of a season abbreviated by his admissions of infidelity after a Thanksgiving night automobile accident and subsequent stint in rehab. The last time he went so far into the year without a win was in 1998.

But there are other goals on the horizon besides adding his 72nd victory — and maybe more. Woods, a two-time winner of the FedExCup, currently ranks 111th in those standings and at this pace would be safe only for the first Playoff event.

He’s ninth in the U.S. Ryder Cup standings, too, one spot out of automatic qualification for the team. Captain Corey Pavin has said he wants to meet with Woods at the PGA next week to gauge his interest but it looks like that conversation might not be necessary.

“I’m planning on playing my way into the team,” Woods said firmly — three times, in fact — when asked whether he would accept a Captain’s Pick.

Woods’ last two starts admittedly have been disappointing. He tied for 46th at the AT&T National and shared 23rd at the British Open, which was played at St, Andrews where he had won the game’s oldest major by five and eight strokes. His ties for fourth at the Masters and U.S. Open are his only top-10s of the year.

“I’ve been through periods like this before,” Woods said. “And just got to keep being patient, keep working, keep building, and keep putting the pieces together, and when they do come, when they do fall into place, that’s usually when I will win a few tournaments.”

The legendary focus no longer seems a given, and there are technical issues, as well. Woods driver actually has been much more cooperative than it’s been in years, but he brands his iron play “spotty.” The biggest culprit, though, has been that putter that had once seemed so automatic.

“My speed has been off all year,” said Woods, who experimented with the Nike Method putter at the British Open but went back to his old standby Scotty Cameron in the fourth round.

“I’ve three-putted quite a few times, which I don’t do normally. Just had to go back to basics and practice a little bit more. I haven’t worked on my putting probably as much as I should have, probably the last couple years actually.”

Woods will play with Lee Westwood Thursday in the first round at Firestone. Interestingly, both Westwood, who ranks No. 3 in the world, and No. 2 Phil Mickelson have several ways to supplant Woods at the top of the world rankings depending on the outcome Sunday.

Woods has held down the top spot for 270 straight weeks and a record 612 during his career. He knows he could relinquish No. 1, as he did briefly in 2005 to Vijay Singh, but he’s not particularly worried one way or another.

“You just keep playing,” Woods said. “… How I got here in the first place was by winning golf tournaments, and how I will sustain it is by winning golf tournaments. Winning golf tournaments takes care of a lot of things and being No. 1 is one of them.”

In order to seek a breakthrough, China Unicom has the overall tariff structure in 3G, 3G terminal operating strategies to make the adjustment.

The common practice of requiring physicians-in-training to work
many double, and even triple, shifts results in performance
reductions equivalent to the effects of drinking several ounces
of alcohol, according to a new study led by a University of
Michigan sleep researcher published in the Journal of the
American Medical Association.

Depending on the type of medical or surgical care they decide to
specialize in, young doctors can spend anywhere from three to 12
years in training. The first year — the internship — is
considered the most intense.

Thirty-four Brown University Medical School pediatric residents
completed standardized tests following two different schedules:
a month of 44-hour work weeks in office-based clinics with no
overnight duties; and a month of 90-hour work weeks, including
day shifts in the hospital’s wards or intensive care units, plus
overnight shifts once every four or five nights.

Vigilance, Attention

Following the month of longer hours, the doctors’ vigilance,
attention and driving skills were found to be impaired. Their
test responses were equivalent to their performance after
consuming three to four alcoholic drinks following a month of
lighter duties.

“This adds to the growing evidence that sleep deprivation among
medical residents significantly impairs their ability to
perform, although it is important to note that we did not assess
performance on specific medical tasks,” says J. Todd Arnedt,
PhD, a sleep psychologist who is a clinical assistant professor
of psychiatry and neurology at the U-M Medical School. Arnedt
works in the the U-M Sleep Disorders Center and the U-M
Depression Center Sleep & Chronophysiology Laboratory.

Three Hours Sleep

Sleep diaries and an automatic wrist-watch activity monitor
verified that the residents on heavy work shifts got
significantly less sleep per night on average than those with
lighter schedules during the study period.

In the 24 hours leading up to the test days, residents on a
light schedule slept an average of 6 hours and 37 minutes,
compared with about 3 hours for the residents on a heavy
schedule.

The residents were tested four times, in two separate sessions.
Two of the tests were completed after they had worked a month of
light duty without overnight shifts; the tests were given before
and after they consumed three to four alcoholic drinks.

In the second session, they were tested on the day after an
overnight shift that came at the end of a month of 90-hour work
weeks. During this session, they were tested before and after
drinking a non-alcoholic placebo beverage. Of primary interest
were the tests conducted after they had drunk either the alcohol
or the placebo.

Performance, Effort

The researchers asked the residents to rate their performance
and effort on the tests. Ratings of impaired performance were
higher following the month of heavy work shifts compared to the
light schedules.

Residents also rated their effort as higher after heavy work
shifts compared to the lighter shifts with alcohol.

In addition, the residents rated their levels of sleepiness.
During the heavy call month, they felt more tired than during
the light-call month, even after they had consumed alcohol on
the light-call rotation.

They were not allowed to nap on the test day or to use caffeine
after noon. All of the tests were conducted at 3 pm.

Reducing Fatigue-Related Impairment

Most of the tests took place before new work-hour restrictions
were imposed by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical
Education in 2003.

Residents now are subject to the following rules: an 80-hour
weekly work-hour limit; a 24-hour limit on continuous duty time;
in-house call duty no more than once every three nights; and one
day in seven free from all patient care and educational
obligations. All requirements are averaged over four weeks.

The new regulations are “a good initial step,” Arnedt noted,
“but the solution to the problem is not likely as simple as
well-intentioned policies aimed at reducing work hours, which
can themselves have negative ramifications,” he pointed out.

“Our study, like others before it, does raise concerns about the
performance of sleep deprived physicians-in-training and
suggests that strategies aimed at reducing fatigue-related
impairments are likely necessary,” Arnedt said.

Alcohol Comparison

Arnedt and his colleagues are the first to study medical
residents using the sleep deprivation and alcohol comparison
model, which has been used in other populations, including truck
drivers. Both sleep deprivation and alcohol consumption impair a
person’s reaction time, attention, judgment, control and driving
ability.

In a Harvard University study published earlier this year, the
authors found that interns were more likely to have an
automobile crash or near-miss while driving after an extended
work shift.

Arnedt’s team found that skills on a driving simulator
deteriorated in residents who were tested after an overnight
shift in the hospital at the end of a month of heavy night work.
The findings from these studies suggest that the personal safety
of residents who drive home after working all night may be at
risk.

“We need to continue to find simple, practical and effective
strategies that hospitals and senior doctors can take to reduce
sleep deprivation among residents,” says Arnedt.
