Who is tracking your travels? How you Drive? How often you drive?\nEvery time a motorist slides in behind the wheel, odds are that car or truck is gathering information: How aggressively the driver accelerated, whether the speed limit was observed, how hard the brake pedal was applied. And beyond driving habits, where and when the car was driven, what route was taken and whether the seat belt was buckled.\nFew laws or regulations address ownership of data collected by infotainment and navigation systems in dashboards and by electronic black boxes under hoods. Auto data privacy is the industry equivalent of the Wild West, according to automotive industry and law experts.\nShould drivers expect information collected by their cars to be private? Can police or other government agencies get their hands on recorded data after a crash to review drivers’ whereabouts if they’re suspected of a crime? What if automakers decided to sell details about driving habits to marketers who want to broadcast targeted ads as motorists run errands?\nThese questions come at a time when many Americans are fearful of their privacy in the wake of National Security Agency leaks and the answers are largely unclear.\nThose facts — and the secrecy surrounding what automakers might do with personal information — have alarmed consumer advocates and raised questions within the industry about the future of data collection.\n“The automotive industry needs to think hard about the type of information they want to collect and who they want to pass it on to,” said Thilo Koslowski, a vice president at technology research firm Gartner Inc. “Anything that focuses more on the driver than the vehicle, that’s where consumers won’t find a whole lot of value.”\nFew laws restrict what information can be collected, how long it can be saved and who it can be shared with — whether with private companies or the government.\nThe Driver Privacy Act, pending in Washington, pertains only to so-called event data recorders, or “black boxes.” Like the black boxes on commercial aircraft, they save key information — in this instance speed, brake application and seat belt use. The moments leading up to an accident, for example, would be recorded. The recorders cannot, however, transmit data in real time.\nFourteen states have laws restricting who can access black-box data and how it can be shared, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. California, for instance, says owners of the vehicle can retrieve black box information, but so can law enforcement authorities depending on court jurisdiction. Michigan has no such prohibitions. And no states prohibit police from accessing information after a crash.\nPresident Barack Obama in 2012 introduced a White House Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights that outlines a set of common privacy practices for multiple industries, including automotive. But on the eve of its second birthday, the blueprint hasn’t gained traction with lawmakers.\nFord Motor Co. chief executive Alan Mulally has called on the federal government to provide guidance on consumer privacy. “It’s really important that we have boundaries and guidelines,” he said at the Detroit auto show last month.\nFord recently received a patent for targeted in-car advertisements: Cars would collect data, including location, to decide which ads to broadcast to each driver. Other automakers are looking at similar features.\nSome studies suggest a majority of consumers would accept microtargeted ads, but Koslowski said motorists might consider such targeted advertising more invasive than helpful. “If the marketing angle was that interesting, Google would have been there 10 years ago,” he said.\nHigh Court's stance unclear\nThe U.S. Supreme Court has indicated it isn’t sure how it would rule in some cases involving automotive privacy.\nIn the 2012 case United States v. Jones, the court found that long-term attachment of a GPS by the government to a private citizen’s vehicle constitutes a search under the Fourth Amendment. Justice Samuel Alito wrote that “even if the public does not welcome the diminution of privacy that new technology entails, they may eventually reconcile themselves to this development as inevitable.”\nData collection for infotainment, voice-activated or navigation systems is outlined in written terms agreed to by consumers before they use a voice-activated, navigation or infotainment system. Those agreements are often filled with dense legal jargon. Most motorists click “yes” without reading.\nSome public interest groups such as the Washington-based Electronic Privacy Information Center are calling for federal legislation to make those contracts consumer friendly; drivers would decide exactly what data could be shared.\n“None of this data collection should be turned on as default, especially when they are collecting so much information,” said Khaliah Barnes, administrative law counsel at the center.\nUntil the rules become clearer, motorists could unknowingly share personal information or have their own data used against them in court.\n“These are still corporations and this information is still going to be worth a lot of money to various people,” said attorney Steven Gursten, owner at Michigan Auto Law and president of the Motor Vehicle Trial Lawyers Association. “We are depending on the good citizenship of nameless people in giant corporations to keep our info private.”\nRead more from The Detroit News:", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://southerntirejax.com/2017/01/31/247-roadside-service-904-389-7233/", "date": "2023-06-03T05:14:16Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-23/segments/1685224649105.40/warc/CC-MAIN-20230603032950-20230603062950-00252.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8775646090507507, "token_count": 118, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-23", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-23__0__194348890", "lang": "en", "text": "Southern Tire & Fleet Service offers in-shop and roadside repair for commercial vehicles.\n- New and used tires\n- Tire repair, balancing and installation\n- New and used wheel & rims\n- Fuel drops and no-starts\n- Overheating and coolant leaks\n- Battery replacement\n- Belts and hoses\n- Engine code and forced regens\n- Air leaks – brake chambers and airbags\n- Breaks – wheel seals – hubs\n- So much more\nGive us a call if you need service.

Collision coverage involves a deductible amount you select when you buy your policy. The deductible, usually $250 or $500, is the amount you are required to pay before the insurance company starts to pay on a covered claim. Under Comprehensive coverage, an insurer pays for damage caused by an event other than a car collision, such as fire, theft, vandalism, hail, or flood damage. Comprehensive also covers damages that result from a collision with an animal. Like Collision coverage, a deductible usually applies.\nLoan/Lease Payoff coverage helps protect you when your covered vehicle has been deemed a total loss and you owe a lender more money than the vehicle is worth. If you buy Loan/Lease Payoff and your vehicle is declared a total loss, Loan/Lease Payoff can pay the difference between the vehicle's actual cash value and the amount you owe to the lender. Medical Payments coverage applies no matter who is at fault and covers the cost of reasonable and necessary medical care provided to you as the result of a car accident. The coverage is often limited to a specified time period following the accident and is subject to the \"limits\" of coverage you chose when you bought the policy. Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage, commonly referred to as \"no-fault insurance,\" is available in certain states. If you are disabled or unable to work as a result of an accident, PIP covers your medical bills and often lost wages. And, it usually covers the cost of personal services you must now pay someone else to do for you. PIP coverage is subject to certain limits available where it is offered. If you buy Rental Reimbursement coverage, the insurance company will reimburse you for rental car charges you incur while your damage to your vehicle as a result of an accident is being repaired. There is usually a limit on the number of days you can receive a rental car, as well as a dollar limit per day. Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage pays for damages that you are legally entitled to recover for your bodily injury. This coverage provides what you would have received from the other person's insurance company had that person been insured. This coverage may also protect you if the person who caused the damage does not have enough insurance.\nBodily Injury and Property Damage (BI/PD) liability covers your legal liability, up to the limits you chose when you bought your policy, for damages caused in a covered vehicle accident. Under BI/PD, an insurer pays for damages to an injured person and for property damage that you are legally obligated to pay as a result of an accident. If the insurance company covers an accident for which you are sued, the insurance company may pay for a lawyer to defend you.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.wheels42.com/cars/article/How-to-Perform-Basic-Car-Checks", "date": "2024-04-18T08:05:40Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00198.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9133925437927246, "token_count": 683, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__132476403", "lang": "en", "text": "Performing basic car checks is essential for ensuring your vehicle's safety, reliability, and longevity. Regular maintenance helps prevent costly repairs and keeps you safe on the road. Here's a guide on how to perform basic car checks:\nTyre Pressure: Proper tyre pressure is crucial for fuel efficiency, handling, and tyre longevity. Use a tyre pressure gauge to check the pressure when the tyres are cold (haven't been driven for at least three hours). Refer to the owner's manual or the sticker inside the driver's side door jamb for the recommended pressure. Adjust as needed and don't forget the spare tire.\nTire Tread: Worn-out tires compromise traction and increase the risk of accidents, especially in wet or icy conditions. Inspect the tyre tread depth using a tread depth gauge or the penny test. Insert a penny into the tread with Lincoln's head upside down. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, it's time to replace the tyres.\nFluid Levels: Check the levels of essential fluids such as engine oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, coolant, and windshield washer fluid. Park on a level surface, wait for the engine to cool down, and locate the dipsticks or reservoirs for each fluid. Ensure they are within the recommended levels and top up if necessary. If you notice any significant fluid loss, it may indicate a leak that needs attention.\nEngine Oil: Engine oil lubricates the engine's moving parts and helps dissipate heat. Check the oil level using the dipstick, making sure the oil is between the minimum and maximum marks. Also, inspect the oil's color and consistency. Milky or gritty oil may indicate engine problems and should be addressed promptly.\nBattery: A weak or dead battery can leave you stranded, especially in cold weather. Check the battery terminals for corrosion and ensure they are tight and free of debris. Use a battery tester or multimeter to measure the voltage. A healthy battery typically reads around 12.6 volts when the engine is off. If the voltage is significantly lower, consider replacing the battery.\nLights: Proper lighting is essential for visibility and safety, especially at night or in adverse weather conditions. Turn on all exterior lights, including headlights, taillights, brake lights, turn signals, and hazard lights. Walk around the vehicle to inspect each light for functionality and replace any burnt-out bulbs.\nBrakes: Adequate braking performance is critical for safe driving. Listen for any unusual noises when applying the brakes, such as grinding or squealing, which may indicate worn brake pads or other issues. Check the brake fluid level and inspect the brake lines and hoses for signs of leaks or damage\nBelts and Hoses: Inspect the engine belts and hoses for signs of wear, cracks, or fraying. Squeeze the hoses to check for firmness; they should feel firm but not excessively hard or soft. Replace any belts or hoses showing signs of deterioration to prevent unexpected failures.\nPerforming these basic car checks regularly—ideally monthly—can help you catch potential problems early, ensuring your vehicle remains safe, reliable, and efficient for years to come. If you're unsure about any aspect of the checks or notice any issues, consult a qualified mechanic for further inspection and repairs.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.poojafasteners.com/hex-flange-bolt/", "date": "2022-09-25T07:38:50Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030334515.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20220925070216-20220925100216-00331.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9359281659126282, "token_count": 268, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-40__0__16170052", "lang": "en", "text": "Hex flange bolts are used on vehicle frames, especially truck frames, and anywhere a hex washer head bolt is needed.

Before ECUs, fuel injection, ignition timing, and idle speed were directly controlled by mechanical and pneumatic sensors and actuators.\n- 1 Working of ECU\n- 2 Programmable ECUs\n- 3 ECU flashing\n- 4 History\n- 5 See also\n- 6 External links\nWorking of ECU\nControl of fuel injection\nFor an engine with fuel injection, an ECU or engine control unit, will determine the quantity of fuel to inject based on a number of parameters. If the throttle pedal is pressed further down, this will open the throttle body and allow more air to be pulled into the engine. The ECU will inject more fuel according to how much air is passing into the engine. If the engine has not warmed up yet, more fuel will be injected (causing the engine to run slightly 'rich' until the engine warms up).\nControl of ignition timing\nA spark ignition engine requires a spark to initiate combustion in the combustion chamber. An ECU can adjust the exact timing of the spark (called ignition timing) to provide better power and economy. If the ECU detects knock, a condition which is potentially destructive to engines, and \"judges\" it to be the result of the ignition timing being too early in the compression stroke, it will delay (retard) the timing of the spark to prevent this.\nA second, more common source, cause, of knock/ping is operating the engine in too low of an RPM range for the \"work\" requirement of the moment. In this case the knock/ping results from the piston not being able to move downward as fast as the flame front is expanding.\nBut this latter mostly applies only to manual transmission equipped vehicles. The ECU controlling an automatic transmission would simply downshift the transmission were this the cause of knock/ping.\nControl of idle speed\nMost engine systems have idle speed control built into the ECU. The engine RPM is monitored by the crankshaft position sensor which plays a primary role in the engine timing functions for fuel injection, spark events, and valve timing. Idle speed is controlled by a programmable throttle stop or an idle air bypass control stepper motor. Early carburetor based systems used a programmable throttle stop using a bidirectional DC motor. Early TBI systems used an idle air control stepper motor. Effective idle speed control must anticipate the engine load at idle. Changes in this idle load may come from HVAC systems, power steering systems, power brake systems, and electrical charging and supply systems. Engine temperature and transmission status, and lift and duration of camshaft also may change the engine load and/or the idle speed value desired.\nA full authority throttle control system may be used to control idle speed, provide cruise control functions and top speed limitation.\nControl of variable valve timing\nSome engines have Variable Valve Timing. In such an engine, the ECU controls the time in the engine cycle at which the valves open. The valves are usually opened sooner at higher speed than at lower speed. This can optimize the flow of air into the cylinder, increasing power and economy.\nElectronic valve control\nExperimental engines have been made and tested that have no camshaft, but has full electronic control of the intake and exhaust valve opening, valve closing and area of the valve opening.Template:Citeweb Such engines can be started and run without a starter motor for certain multi-cylinder engines equipped with precision timed electronic ignition and fuel injection. Such a static-start engine would provide the efficiency and pollution-reduction improvements of a mild hybrid-electric drive, but without the expense and complexity of an oversized starter motor.Template:Citation\nA special category of ECUs are those which are programmable. These units do not have a fixed behavior, but can be reprogrammed by the user.\nProgrammable ECUs are required where significant aftermarket modifications have been made to a vehicle's engine. Examples include adding or changing of a turbocharger, adding or changing of an intercooler, changing of the exhaust system, and conversion to run on alternative fuel. As a consequence of these changes, the old ECU may not provide appropriate control for the new configuration. In these situations, a programmable ECU can be wired in. These can be programmed/mapped with a laptop connected using a serial or USB cable, while the engine is running.\nThe programmable ECU may control the amount of fuel to be injected into each cylinder. This varies depending on the engine's RPM and the position of the gas pedal (or the manifold air pressure). The engine tuner can adjust this by bringing up a spreadsheet-like page on the laptop where each cell represents an intersection between a specific RPM value and a gas pedal position (or the throttle position, as it is called). In this cell a number corresponding to the amount of fuel to be injected is entered. This spreadsheet is often referred to as a fuel table or fuel map.\nBy modifying these values while monitoring the exhausts using a wide band lambda probe to see if the engine runs rich or lean, the tuner can find the optimal amount of fuel to inject to the engine at every different combination of RPM and throttle position. This process is often carried out at a dynamometer, giving the tuner a controlled environment to work in. An engine dynamometer gives a more precise calibration for racing applications. Tuners often utilize a chassis dynamometer for street and other high performance applications.\nOther parameters that are often mappable are:\n- Ignition: Defines when the spark plug should fire for a cylinder.\n- Rev. limit: Defines the maximum RPM that the engine is allowed to reach. After this fuel and/or ignition is cut. Some vehicle have a \"soft\" cut-off before the \"hard\" cut-off.\n- Water temperature correction: Allows for additional fuel to be added when the engine is cold (choke) or dangerously hot.\n- Transient fueling: Tells the ECU to add a specific amount of fuel when throttle is applied. The term is \"acceleration enrichment\"\n- Low fuel pressure modifier: Tells the ECU to increase the injector fire time to compensate for a loss of fuel pressure.\n- Closed loop lambda: Lets the ECU monitor a permanently installed lambda probe and modify the fueling to achieve stoichiometric (ideal) combustion. On traditional gas powered vehicles in the USA stoich is 14.7:1.\nSome of the more advanced race ECUs include functionality such as launch control, limiting the power of the engine in first gear to avoid burnouts. Other examples of advanced functions are:\n- Waste gate control: Sets up the behavior of a turbo waste gate, controlling boost.\n- Banked injection: Sets up the behavior of double injectors per cylinder, used to get a finer fuel injection control and atomization over a wide RPM range.\n- Variable cam timing: Tells the ECU how to control variable intake and exhaust cams.\n- Gear control: Tells the ECU to cut ignition during (sequential gearbox) upshifts or blip the throttle during downshifts.\nA race ECU is often equipped with a data logger recording all sensors for later analysis using special software in a PC. This can be useful to track down engine stalls, misfires or other undesired behaviors during a race by downloading the log data and looking for anomalies after the event. The data logger usually has a capacity between 0.5 and 16 megabytes.\nIn order to communicate with the driver, a race ECU can often be connected to a \"data stack\", which is a simple dash board presenting the driver with the current RPM, speed and other basic engine data. These race stacks, which are almost always digital, talk to the ECU using one of several proprietary protocols running over RS232 or CANbus, connecting to the DLC connector (Data Link Connector) usually located on the underside of the dash, inline with the steering wheel\nMany recent (around 1996 or newer) cars use OBD-II ECUs that are sometimes capable of having their programming changed through the OBD port. Automotive enthusiasts with modern cars take advantage of this technology when tuning their engines. Rather than use an entire new engine management system, one can use the appropriate software to adjust the factory equipped computer. By doing so, it is possible to retain all stock functions and wiring while using a custom tuned program. This should not be confused with \"chip tuning\", where the owner has ECU ROM physically replaced with a different one—no hardware modification is (usually) involved with flashing ECUs, although special equipment is required.\nFactory engine management systems often have similar controls as aftermarket units intended for racing, such as 3-dimensional timing and fuel control maps. They generally do not have the ability to control extra ancillary devices, such as variable valve timing if the factory vehicle was a fixed geometry camshaft or boost control if the factory car was not turbocharged.\nHybrid digital designs\nHybrid digital/analog designs were popular in the mid 1980s. This used analog techniques to measure and process input parameters from the engine, then used a look-up table stored in a digital ROM chip to yield precomputed output values. Later systems compute these outputs dynamically. The ROM type of system is amenable to tuning if one knows the system well. The disadvantage of such systems is that the precomputed values are only optimal for an idealised, new engine. As the engine wears, the system is less able to compensate than a CPU based system.\nModern ECUs use a microprocessor which can process the inputs from the engine sensors in real time. An electronic control unit contains the hardware and software (firmware). The hardware consists of electronic components on a printed circuit board (PCB), ceramic substrate or a thin laminate substrate. The main component on this circuit board is a microcontroller chip (CPU). The software is stored in the microcontroller or other chips on the PCB, typically in EPROMs or flash memory so the CPU can be re-programmed by uploading updated code or replacing chips. This is also referred to as an (electronic) Engine Management System (EMS).\nSophisticated engine management systems receive inputs from other sources, and control other parts of the engine; for instance, some variable valve timing systems are electronically controlled, and turbocharger wastegates can also be managed. They also may communicate with transmission control units or directly interface electronically-controlled automatic transmissions, traction control systems, and the like. The Controller Area Network or CAN bus automotive network is often used to achieve communication between these devices.\nModern ECUs sometimes include features such as cruise control, transmission control, anti-skid brake control, and anti-theft control, etc.\nGeneral Motors' first ECUs had a small application of hybrid digital ECUs as a pilot program in 1979, but by 1980, all active programs were using microprocessor based systems. Due to the large ramp up of volume of ECUs that were produced to meet the US Clean Air Act requirements for 1981, only one ECU model could be built for the 1981 model year.GM Emission Control Project Center - I Was There - GMnext The high volume ECU that was installed in GM vehicles from the first high volume year, 1981, onward was a modern microprocessor based system. GM moved rapidly to replace carburetor based systems to fuel injection type systems starting in 1980/1981 Cadillac engines, following in 1982 with the Pontiac 2.5L \"GM Iron Duke engine\" and the Corvette Chevrolet L83 \"Cross-Fire\" engine. In just a few years all GM carburetor based engines had been replaced by throttle body injection (TBI) or intake manifold injection systems of various types. In 1988 Delco Electronics, Subsidiary of GM Hughes Electronics, produced more than 28,000 ECUs per day, the world's largest producer of on-board digital control computers at the time.Delco Electronics Electron Magazine, The Atwood Legacy, Spring '89, page 25\n- Air flow meter\n- Air-fuel ratio meter\n- Automobile self starter\n- Fuel injection\n- Malfunction Indicator Lamp\n- Powertrain Control Module\n- Timing Retard Eliminator (TRE)\nOpen source engine management systems\n- CarDAQ-plus J2534 pass-thru hardware device\nModifiable but restricted engine management systems\nDIY engine management systems", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.gothicrotulacionesandalucia.es/en/product/wrap/", "date": "2021-03-01T12:40:53Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178362513.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20210301121225-20210301151225-00215.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9153401851654053, "token_count": 309, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2021-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2021-10__0__135144007", "lang": "en", "text": "Wrap is the comprehensive professional lining of all types of vehicles such as motorcycles, cars, boats, karts, jet skis, vans ...

The plaintiff was involved in an accident with a recently-repossessed vehicle sold by the Co-Defendant to an uninsured driver. Plaintiff brought an uninsured motorist claim against our client seeking over one million dollars in damages. However, Don and his team determined that the car dealership had failed to do any of the proper paperwork necessary to actually transfer ownership of the car, such that the dealership remained the owner and the vehicle was not uninsured at the time of the accident. At trial, the Plaintiff’s second witness was the general manager of car dealership who, for three years, adamantly denied that the dealership owned the vehicle during the accident. However, during the cross examination, the manager admitted that the dealership still owned the car during the accident.

Very often, rat rods are conglomerations of parts and pieces from several different cars of varying makes and models.\nAlthough some may wear the term like a badge of honor, many rat rodders do not consider their cars rat rods. The term is considered derogatory to many traditional hot rod builders. New fans of hot rods, comparing yesterday's shiny hot rods to today's primed, lower and more radically designed hot rods, coined the term \"rat rod\" to describe these elemental cars.\nAn evolution of the jalopy, a dilapidated antique car that appears uncared for or neglected, the Rat Rod is based on the same idea. Bodywork is made to look dilapidated, or even completely derelict, whilst the underpinnings - engine, transmission and braking systems - are sometimes upgraded.\nA typical rat rod is an early 1930s through 1950s coupe or roadster with the body set low on the frame. Remove fenders, add whitewall tires, big-little tire combos, expose the engine bay, install home-made upholstery, add lots of power ... and you have a rat rod!\nA number of key aspects differentiate a rat rod from a hot rod. A rat rod is a home-built, low-budget, one-off custom vehicle that is frequently driven and has many superficial flaws and imperfections. \"Bare to the bone...\"\nIn popular usage, a hot rod is now defined as a high-end, high-budget show car that emulates the early hot rods in style...but sports flashy paint, high-quality upholstery and generally sees little in the way of road time. Classic and classy.\nSome rat rods are built using the same parts and methods available to the early hot rodders of the late 1950's and 60's. Just as early hot rodders strived to build their own cars to the best of their ability, today's rat rodders also prefer to do so. Emphasis is on functionality, not flash.\nUse of billet parts is frowned upon with original, vintage parts being preferred. Use of original, less common engines is also of choice. Rat rods are often powered by flatheads, straight sixes, straight fours and other relatively uncommon engines such as those made by Cadillac and Studebaker. The Oldsmobile Rocket 88 is a popular choice as well.\nMany of these cars appear unfinished with primer paint jobs being common. Other common rat rod finishes include patina (the original paint with rust and blemishes intact), a patchwork of original paint and primer, and bare metal with no finish at all in rusty or oiled varieties.\nInteriors will vary from fully finished to a spartan, bare bones form. A popular interior design made from Mexican blankets and bomber seats adds color and flair. Most are designed to be functional without many creature comforts, although this will vary with the owner's taste.\nOne main distinguishing characteristic of rat rods is that they are built to be driven. Many of these vehicles are used as daily drivers by their owners. Rat Rodders also enjoy showing off their pride and joy - while they are rarely trailered to an event, they are periodically trailered home.\nAll of them are built for fun...a vehicle that is cool and does not require constant care.\nAlthough rat rods are often confused with traditional hot rods, today they have very little in common.\nRat rods have become popular with many enthusiasts as a reaction to the professionally built, billet encrusted, high dollar street rods at car shows. Many of these street rods cost upwards of $50,000 or more to build. Many are powered by a Chevrolet small block engine and automatic transmissions.\nSome of these cars are trailered to car shows and only driven a short distance before being displayed. As one proud owner beamed “this car is meant for polishing, not driving!” The rat rod concept reverses this trend.\nIn many ways 'hot rod' is now synonymous with 'trailer queen' (a car that is never actually driven but exists purely for display and is trailered from show to show). Trailer queens are also sometimes called \"custom cars\" or \"street rods\". This, however, is one viewpoint among many.\nAt a car show, the prevailing connotations of the names are:\nNow, the rat rod is a statement of lifestyle. Tattoos, surf, rockabilly and more recently psychobilly music, garage rock, punk, hardcore and pin-ups are just a few of its cultural touchstones.\n- HOT ROD - nasty loud and obnoxious\n- STREET ROD - trailer queen\n- RAT ROD - unfinished or in-progress hot rod or beater\n- LEADSLED - kruise with loads of greezy character. Low and slow is the name of the game here. A shoestring budget is what leads to many rat rods appearing in coats of primer rather than paint...in the creative process one sometimes can not afford to build, paint and trim the rod at the same time. At one time, the rat rod or, even more so, the rat bike, was owned/built by an outsider for whom the machine was a statement of individuality and disregard for cultural norms.\nThe vehicles and the term \"rat rod\" connote inclusiveness and pride of belonging. The term itself has been co-opted by business and is a marketing tool used to sell lifestyle items signifying membership in the subculture.\nItems such as iron crosses, skulls, and the like are historically associated with hot rod culture by way of 1960s teen culture (see some of the \"beach\" movies of the period).\nThe December 1972 issue of Rod & Custom Magazine was dedicated to the 'beater', a low-budget alternative to the over-polished, slickly-painted, customized early car. The beater could easily be considered a progenitor of the rat rod.\nHowever, owners of these beaters often had a high-dollar machine sitting in their garage: no expensive upholstery, primered if painted at all, no chromed and polished Corvette/Jaguar rear ends.\nLike with many cultural terms, many dispute the origin of the term \"rat rod.\"\nSome say it first appeared in an article written in Hot Rod Magazine by Gray Baskerville about cars that still sported a coat of primer. Some claim that the first rat rod was owned by artist Robert Williams who had a '32 Ford roadster that was painted in primer.\nIt is well documented on the Hokey Ass Message Board HAMB that the first rat rods were built by the Low Flyers Hot Rod club in the UK in the 1980s. This pre-dates Robert Williams' claim that he built the first one.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.nanyangpost.net/2011/03/huge-petrol-queues-stretch-japan.html", "date": "2015-07-04T20:41:24Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-27/segments/1435375096944.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20150627031816-00118-ip-10-179-60-89.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9882221817970276, "token_count": 677, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2015-27", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2015-27__0__88824639", "lang": "en", "text": "SENDAI, March 13, 2011 (AFP) - Desperate quake survivors were running short of water, petrol and patience in Japan's tsunami-ravaged city of Sendai on Sunday as they faced endless petrol station queues.\nSome resorted to siphoning fuel from tanks of cars and motorcycles mangled in Friday's horrific earthquake and tsunami, while others collected whatever groceries they could find in the rubble of destroyed shops.\nWith water desperately short, most petrol stations empty or offline, widespread power blackouts and the phone system near collapse, people struggled without the very basics of modern life on the third day after the disaster.\nMost shops and restaurants in Sendai, a usually busy commercial hub, were closed because of the physical damage, power cuts, lack of stock or because their owners and staff had left with their families.\nOne retired woman, 64-year-old Satsuko Aizawa, was stuck at the end of a queue of more than 100 cars snaking slowly to a gas station.\n\"I've been here for four hours and I can't even see the gas station yet,\" she said.\nFour hours later she was still waiting in the same line but the row of cars behind her had tripled in length.\nAs darkness fell many of those waiting with their engines off shuddered against the bitter night-time chill.\n\"This is my work for today,\" Aizawa said. \"I have to do this.\"\nSome sought fuel to leave the region, as a nuclear emergency unfolded to their south on the Pacific coast at atomic power plants damaged by the quake and tsunami.\nMany petrol stations in Sendai were closed because they were damaged in the massive earthquake, lacked the power to run pumps, or simply ran out of fuel.\nSome rationed petrol to 1,000 yen ($12) per car and prioritised emergency service vehicles -- with ambulances and fire trucks, their sirens wailing, on missions to and from the area ravaged by the tsunami.\nGas station owner Shoji Goike used a hand-powered pump to sell 10 litres of gasoline per vehicle for 1,500 yen each to about 600 customers.\n\"I wanted to share this with everyone,\" he said, as young staff took turns at the sweaty task of hand-pumping petrol all day.\nMany motorists drove around searching for a refill, mindful that they were wasting fuel in the process, while others pushed cars with the engines off.\nDrivers said they were running near-empty when the quake struck because they usually fill tanks on weekends -- or because they were waiting for a drop in prices amid turmoil in the Middle East and North Africa.\nSadao Yamauchi, 59, was at his petrol station watching several hundred cars move by at snail's pace. \"We have about 30,000 liters of gasoline, but our pumps don't work,\" he said.\nYamauchi said he had lost power at his house and was sleeping in a sports utility vehicle with his wife and two grown-up daughters.\nWith his SUV now his temporary family home, he was doing a minimum of driving and not using the car heater to preserve every precious drop of fuel.\n\"It gets very cold at night,\" he said, \"but we have to keep the engine off to save gas.\"", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.busybee.com.au/product/rock-off-towing-brush-strip-u-bolt-mounting-kit/", "date": "2022-08-17T22:27:15Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-33/segments/1659882573118.26/warc/CC-MAIN-20220817213446-20220818003446-00584.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8906713128089905, "token_count": 1233, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-33", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-33__0__181460138", "lang": "en", "text": "ROCK OFF® TOWING BRUSH KIT SUITABLE FOR U-BOLT MOUNTING\n(U-Bolt not included, but readily sourced from your local hardware store)\nHeading into the Australian outback this holiday?

Heat from the exhaust pipe and hot fumes can distort the bristles.\nFor best results, mount the brush under the exhaust or behind the exhaust.\nHave an exhaust pipe in the way? Check out these solutions:\n- Straight exhaust pipes: straight pipes are ideal and do not typically require an Exhaust Kit option. This applies to straight exhaust pipes either above the brush mounting area or side pipes facing away from the mounting.\n- Angled exhaust pipes (within 150mm of brush mounting are): for pipes angled downwards and within 150mm of the brush mounting area, choose our Exhaust Shield Plate. This fitting has stainless steel open shield plate to be fitted in front of your exhaust pipe so exhaust heat and fumes are drawn into the open area and away from your vehicle. Towing Brush Strip bristles are individually stapled and can be removed with pliers to accommodate fitting the Exhaust Shield Plate over the Stainless Steel Rails and in front of your exhaust pipe. Exhaust Shield Plate is fitted with a smaller piece of Towing Brush Strip to cover the gap under the plate.\n- Angled Exhaust Pipes (150-500mm from brush mounting area): for exhaust pipes angled downwards and located between 150mm and 500mm (max) away from the brush mounting area, choose our Exhaust Extension Kit. The Exhaust Extension Kit includes Exhaust Shield Plate plus 500mm of Stainless Steel Truck Flex Tube in sizes 2.5″ (60mm) or 3″ (76mm). Truck Flex Tube allows fitting over your exhaust pipe with exit via the opening in the Exhaust Shield Plate. Also includes a coupling to fit over your exhaust pipe, and a stainless steel fitting to keep Flex Tube in place. This allows the exhaust gases to flow away from under the vehicle and not impact the Towing Brush.\nNot sure which option is best for you?

In reality, there are many variations on these themes. Let’s look at four approaches and examine the short- and long-term financial impacts.\nBuy a new car from a dealer\nThere are obviously a wide range of new cars out there that you could choose from. For this article I have chosen the Honda CR-V, which edmonds.com lists as the most popular new car in America for 2011. We’ll look at the EX-L trim level, which is a moderately equipped version of this car. Honda lists the price of this car as $26,845. Honda is currently offering 0.9% financing on this vehicle for 60 months, which would give you a $478 monthly payment. Keep in mind, though, that unless you have super, mega, unbelieveably good credit, you won’t qualify for this financing offer and will more likely pay about 5%. This means that the monthly payment is really $529. Over the life of the loan, this car will cost $31,740 (total of all monthly payments).\nBuy a late model used car from a dealer\nAnother popular option is to buy a car that is a couple of years old with low mileage from a new or used car dealer. We’ll consider the same car again to make sure we are comparing apples to apples. The NADA retail value for the 2009 Honda CR-V is $23,925. Again financing at 5% for 60 monthls, the payments will be $451. The total cost of the car including financing is $27,060. Nice job. You save almost $5000! Don’t get excited yet – you’re still handing over $5412 every year. That’s alot of cash you could use for something else. This why I like not having car payments and haven’t had one for several years.\nBuy an older used car from a dealer or owner\nThe older car you buy, the less it will cost. You could pick just about any price point you want and then find a car to match that. I’m going to somewhat arbitrarily pick $5000 as the price for this third option. To get a CR-V in that price range, we’ll have to go with a 1998 model. This car has an NADA retail value of $5025. You may be able to get one a year or two newer for this price if you look for on for sale by owner instead of going to a dealer. This time let’s only finance it for 36 months since the payments will be so much lower. At 5%, that will cost $151 per month for a total cost of $5436.\nSure you may spend a little more on repairs than you would with the new or two-year-old car, but Honda makes extremely reliable vehicles. If you choose carefully you will still have very little repair costs. Besides, you are paying $27k less for it than a new one. You can do a lot of repairs and still come out way ahead for that savings.\nThe really cheap option\nMy last option here is to look for the $1000 car. Honda hasn’t been making CR-Vs long enough to get one with that resale value, so let’s look at the Civic. According to Consumer Guides, a 1992-1995 Civic will fall into the $600-$2000 price range. I’ve gone with the range here instead of picking a specific car because when you get to this area the prices can vary widely, but you will certainly be able to find your $1000 car within this range of years and still have a reliable car.\nI’m not even going to talk about financing here because it shouldn’t be necessary. That’s the whole point. Now we are down to a price range where anyone can save up the money to just buy one without paying a penny in interest. Between rounding up all the loose change in the house and selling some junk you don’t use on Craigslist, most people can probably come up with a thousand dollars within a couple of months without even saving up.\nHere’s a table to summarize the short term costs:\nLet’s look briefly at the long term costs of these different approaches. The vast majority of people trade cars at least once every five years, so let’s assume that you do that with each of these approaches. I’m also just calculating in today’s dollars, so in reality inflation would make the newer cars cost much much more. Driving a new car between age 20 and retirement at age 65 will cost a total of $285,660. Going with the two-year-old car, you will spend $243,540. The $5k cars will only cost you $81,540 and the $1k cars will cost $9000. Even if you bought a $1k car every year, it would cost $240k less over this time perior. You save enough money to buy the median priced house in this country!\nKeep in mind also that I have not included sales tax, dealer fees, and insurance because they vary so widely by location. Including these costs means you save even more by going with the cheaper cars.\nLeave a comment. Which of these approaches is closest to your car-buying method? Do you think buying cheaper cars is too risky? Is it worth $240k?", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.flwoutdoors.com/fishing-articles/industry-news/155365/consumer-reports-names-chevrolet-silverado-top-truck/", "date": "2013-12-12T01:01:31Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-48/segments/1386164128316/warc/CC-MAIN-20131204133528-00039-ip-10-33-133-15.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9459299445152283, "token_count": 517, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2013-48", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2013-48__0__81984189", "lang": "en", "text": "YONKERS, N.Y. -- In a heavy-metal duel between two top pickup trucks, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500's \"Excellent\" road-test score makes it Consumer Reports' top-rated truck. But testers point out that the second-place Ram 1500 may be a better daily driver.\nEach model won skirmishes along the way, and they finished one-two in a competitive pickup truck category— separated by only three points. Both trucks outscored the previously-tested Ford's F-150 XLT, which 3.5-liter EcoBoost turbo V6 and 5.0-liter V8 versions rank third and fourth, respectively.\nThe Silverado edged the Ram in several areas important to pickup truck owners. It has a much larger cargo bed, several hundred pounds greater payload capacity, and it can tow a heavier trailer—up to 11,200 pounds in Consumer Reports tests. Its tailgate is easy to raise and lower, and handy corner bumper steps help with climbing into the bed. The Silverado also has a lower step-in height than the Ram, aiding cabin access. Handling is more agile, and the Silverado delivers best-in-class fuel economy of 16 mpg overall—one mpg better than the Ram. That could save owners about 50 gallons of gas per year.\n\"The reality is that you can't go wrong with either one. Both are capable trucks that get decent gas mileage and are as quiet inside as a good luxury car,\" said Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports.\nComplete tests results for the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and Ram 1500, as well as results of the updated-for-2014 Honda Odyssey appear on www.ConsumerReports.org today, and in the November issue of Consumer Reports, on newsstands October 5.

However, in many cases donated cars will be sold en masse, either by the charity itself or by a dealer to raise funds for the charity. In the case of a dealer, the charity generally receives a flat fee per car, sometimes as little as $45 per car.\nListed below are tips for donors who would like to donate a car to charity. Beware that the donor’s tax deductions for car donations may be limited to the price at which the charity sold the car.\nTo receive the maximum tax deduction on your car donation, and to receive the satisfaction that the full value of the car benefits a charitable purpose, give it to a charity that will use the vehicle in its operations or will give it to a person in need. Otherwise, your tax deduction will not be based on the fair market value, but will be limited to the amount of money the charity receives from the sale of your car. If the charity you are donating to does sell the vehicle, ask what percentage of the proceeds they receive. See Car Donations: Taking Taxpayers for a Ride for more. Ask if the charity accepts car donations directly, without involving a third party. If possible, drive the vehicle to the charity instead of using a towing or pickup service. This will allow the charity to keep the full amount of any proceeds from selling the car.\nMake sure the charity is eligible to receive tax deductible contributions. Ask for a copy for your records of the organization’s IRS letter of determination which verifies its tax exempt status. Be sure that you get a receipt from the charity for your car donation. Be aware that non-cash donations are one of the most common triggers to an audit by the IRS, so you’ll want to document the value of the car and keep records of it. If the car is worth more than $500, the donor must complete Section A of IRS Form 8283 and attach it to their tax return. Donors are required to file with his/her tax return a written acknowledgement from the charity. If the charity sells the car, the charity must provide the donor with a certification that the car was sold at “arms length” between unrelated parties and the sale price of the car within 30 days. In this case, the donor’s tax deductions will be limited to the total amount the charity sold the car for. If the charity does not sell the car, it must provide the donor with a receipt within 30 days of the contribution. The charity may also be required to provide certification to the donor stating how it plans to use or improve the car and stating that it promises not to sell or transfer the car. Penalties are imposed on charities that provide fraudulent acknowledgements to donors.\nIf the car is worth $5,000 or more, an independent appraisal is necessary. The donor must also fill out Section B of IRS Form 8283. For cars worth less than $5,000, use the Kelley Blue Book, the Hearst Black Book, or a guide from the National Auto Dealers Association (NADA) to determine the market value. Make sure you use the correct figure for the date, mileage, and condition of your car. Picking the highest figure for your car model and year without taking into account other factors may not pass muster with the IRS. Take pictures of the car and save receipts for new tires or other upgrades to verify its value. Remember, it is the donor, not the charity, who is obligated to value the car and who will pay the penalties if an IRS challenge finds your figure inaccurate.\nDonating a car to charity? You might want to pump the brakes\nDonating a car could be one of the least cost-effective ways to aid a charity, says industry expert.The car-donation industry is riddled with fraud and deception, with multiple states investigating outfits for false advertising and self-dealing.These eight tips can help donors protect themselves while trying to help out others.Thinking of donating your clunker to charity for a nice tax deduction? Proceed with caution\nThe gifting of used cars to “charities” has become a favorite way for Americans to dispose of unwanted vehicles. And why not? You can avoid the headache of selling or junking the car, help a charitable cause and lower your tax burden all at the same time.\nUnfortunately, the experience is rarely, in reality, such a win-win\nsituation. Not only do charities typically see little of the proceeds\nfrom a used car sale, but donors can run afoul of the taxman if they’re\n“At the end of the day, donating a used car could be the least cost-effective way to give to a charity,” said Stephanie Kalivas, an analyst with CharityWatch, an organization that monitors the charitable giving industry.\nThe problem is the industry is riddled with fraud and misrepresentation. Attorneys General from multiple states have investigated car donation charities for false advertising and self-dealing. Many of the organizations are for-profit intermediaries that give token contributions to a participating charity. Others misrepresent the cause they support and/or give low percentages of their funds raised to their stated targets.\nKars4Kids, for example, a New Jersey-based organization with an\ninsipid yet highly successful advertising jingle, has received more than\n450,000 car donations, according to its website. The organization,\nhowever, got a D rating from CharityWatch because it distributes less\nthan 50 percent of the money it takes in and because, despite a national\nadvertising campaign, it fails to adequately disclose that the money\ngoes to benefit Jewish children only, and almost exclusively in the New\nYork/New Jersey area.\n“They’re not transparent about what they do,” Kalivas said. “A lot of these organizations mislead the public, and people need to be careful.”\nWendy Kirwan, director of public relations for Kars4Kids, said the costs of marketing and operating the car-donation program are high but that because the organization processes donations in-house, more money goes to its charitable work than others who use third parties. She also said that while the catchy advertising jingle doesn’t spell out which kids benefit from the charity, the information is readily available on their website kars4kids.org. “This is an innovative way to support charity in a way that helps the charity and the donors,” said Kirwan. “A lot of people wouldn’t otherwise be donating to charity if it wasn’t with their car.”\nFor people solely looking to dispose of an unwanted car for which they won’t take a tax deduction, it may not seem to matter what happens to the vehicle and who benefits. Kalivas, however, suggests that charities would be much better off if people sold their cars themselves and donated the proceeds, or simply called up charities they know to find out if they have car donation programs.\nIf the car in question is valuable and you plan to take a deduction for it, protect yourself. Individuals donating cars can inadvertently mark themselves with big red flag for Internal Revenue Service auditors\nWhen donating a car, here are eight key things you should consider to maximize the benefits to charity and minimize the risk to yourself.\n- Research the charity you plan to give it to. If it doesn’t have 501(c)(3) non-profit status with the IRS, it is not a charity and your donation is not tax-deductible.\n- Pick efficient charities to give to. There are multiple organizations such as CharityWatch that evaluate charities and rate them for efficiency in supporting their causes.\n- Itemize. To take a tax deduction for a car donation, you have to itemize deductions on your return. There are detailed rules about the amount you can claim. Taxpayers can deduct the full market value of a donated car under three circumstances: The charity uses the car in its operations; it materially improves the vehicle to sell or use it; or the charity donates or sells it to a needy person for below market value. Otherwise, you can only deduct what the charity receives as proceeds from selling the car.\n- Get a receipt. Make sure to get a receipt from the charity for the vehicle and eventually a document certifying how much the vehicle was sold for. Charities are required to provide that document within 30 days of selling the car.\n- Don’t forget IRS form 8283. If the sale price or fair market value of the car is greater than $500, you have to complete section A of IRS form 8283 and file it with your tax return. Consult the Kelley Blue Book, the Hearst Black Book or National Auto Dealers Association for market values. If the car is worth more than $5,000, you need to get an independent appraisal of it and also complete Section B of Form 8283.\n- Drop it off. If the car is road-worthy, drive it yourself to the charity you’re donating to. It saves money and ensures you’re not giving the car to some unrelated, for-profit intermediary. Make sure to sign over the title of the car to the organization and that a representative signs it, as well. If someone is picking the car up, have them sign the title and take a photocopy of it. People have been on the hook for liabilities on donated cars that were not properly signed over to a new owner.\n- Snap it. Take pictures of the car and keep receipts for work and repairs done on it — particularly if you’re claiming a deduction for it.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.newcountry1079.com/onair/kenny-judys-blog-38148/nascar-penalizes-keselowski-logano-11201991/", "date": "2014-03-07T08:43:48Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-10/segments/1393999638988/warc/CC-MAIN-20140305060718-00004-ip-10-183-142-35.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9836692214012146, "token_count": 194, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2014-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2014-10__0__126515025", "lang": "en", "text": "Penske Racing has felt the wrath of NASCAR, and drivers Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano have both been dealt a serious blow- a loss of 25 points!\nNASCAR said the parts they confiscated from the No. 2 and No. 22 cars driven by Keselowski and Logano were illegal; they had not been approved prior to Saturday's Texas Speedway race.

The first step is gathering the required information and documents.\nInformation Required to Complete the Application for Vehicle Registration\n- The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) which can usually be found on a stamped metal plate on the driver’s side of the dashboard. Visually verify that the VIN on the vehicle matches the VIN on the title.\n- A description of the vehicle including its year, make, and model.\n- Include the new owner’s address and county where the vehicle will be located.\n- The new owner’s full legal name\nGather these documents before you go to DMV.\n- A certified copy of the death certificate of the prior owner of the vehicle.\n- The declaration from the court showing that you are the party who is entitled to inherit the vehicle from the decedent’s estate.\n- The current title for the vehicle.\n- You may have to complete the Seller Information, including the odometer reading if the Executor did not complete the information.\n- Physically verify the reading and then sign the odometer certification verifying that the reading the Executor wrote accurately reflects the mileage.\n- Include the new owner’s address.\n- Proof that you have insurance on the vehicle from your Nevada insurance company or proof of self-insurance that meets Nevada’s requirements.\n- Completed Application for Vehicle Registration.\n- Include the name of the beneficiary if a transfer on death designation is to be included.\n- Emissions (SMOG) inspection, if required.\nIf you inherited a vehicle that does not run, such as a partially restored Silver Ghost, you are not required to obtain insurance when you register the vehicle. Before the vehicle may be operated on the public roadways, you must ensure it. If you need to have it inspected in order to register a restored vehicle, you must obtain a movement permit from the DMV before driving it to an inspection station. You may also be required to have a safety inspection.\nYou will be required to visit a DMV office in order to obtain a movement permit. Only registered owners can obtain a movement permit online.\nWhen transferring a vehicle’s title after the estate has been probated, the title should be free and clear of liens. In this case, the section of the title where a lienholder is named should state “None.” Loans cannot be assumed by the new owner. If the loan is not or cannot be satisfied during the probate process, the executor will need to make arrangements with the lender. It may be necessary for the new owner to refinance the vehicle. If this isn’t possible, the vehicle will need to be sold in order to pay off the lien.\nTransferring a Vehicle to a Different State\nIf the heir resides in a state other than Nevada, the vehicle must be registered in the state where the heir resides. If the vehicle registration expired during the final illness or while it was stored during the probate process, you’ll need to obtain a drive away permit that allows you to legally drive the unregistered vehicle out of Nevada.\nIn order to obtain a movement permit, including a drive away permit, proof of your legal right to the vehicle must be presented. The death certificate, a copy of the court documents from probate, and your legal identification will be required.\nIf the Title was Lost\nIf the title to the vehicle is lost, a duplicate should be obtained by the Executor before the title is transferred.\nMake an Appointment at the DMV\nSome locations in Nevada allow you to make an appointment at the DMV to reduce waiting times.\nDon’t go to the DMV without the required documents. The DMV won’t make exceptions because the requirements are dictated by law.\nContact a Las Vegas estate planning lawyer for assistance with all your estate planning and probate needs, including transferring the title on a vehicle you’ve inherited.\nFor more than 30 years, Attorney Lee A.

Such parts are relatively cheaper, and you can quickly find the ideal types for your old vehicle model online.\nHowever, even though e-commerce offers more exceptional convenience, there are several risks associated with it. That's why this post discusses four tips to help you shop for your used truck parts online in a safe and rewarding manner.\nChoose the Right Parts\nClose enough is sometimes never good enough when shopping for particular vehicle parts. Therefore, it's imperative to ascertain essential information like truck makes, models, year, and part numbers. If the online store displays truck parts on their website, color-matching can help you save more from investing in spray painting. Furthermore, find out if buying multiple truck parts is more cost-effective than purchasing an entire truck for used parts.\nGet Some Background Information\nAnother crucial factor to consider is the history of the online store and vehicle parts they sell. In most online shopping scenarios, you may not pick items in person. Therefore, always ask for clear images of the product before purchasing.\nUpon delivery, assess whether what was portrayed in the images is precisely what was delivered. The mileage of a truck part can mean a massive difference in its quality. Thus, ask as many questions as possible, including whether it's an original OEM or aftermarket part, whether it's a used or repaired part, and so forth.\nHow Urgently Do You Need It?\nSometimes, it's always wise to shop around various e-commerce platforms for the ideal truck part. However, if it's a matter of urgency, always inquire whether they have the used truck part already stocked or must order it in from elsewhere. Don't forget to confirm its location since overseas shipments may experience some delays.\nSometimes choosing a local auto-wrecker is a prudent decision. If you are looking into cutting down on costs, only work with a dealer if you must. Furthermore, if the company should ship the parts, ensure there is some form of tracking to prevent potential losses while in transit.\nSecurity is Key\nFinally, a company's trust and availability are crucial aspects when shopping for your used truck parts online. Reputable auto-wreckers are known for offering sensible return policies, applicable warranties, receipts, and secure payment options.\nWhen assured of the availability of parts you need, purchasing local is preferable since you can view them first hand. Remember to inquire from the company whose responsibility it'll be for the cost of return shipping.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://selectomaha.com/service/collision-repair-service/", "date": "2019-10-15T14:23:14Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-43/segments/1570986659097.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20191015131723-20191015155223-00249.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9566100835800171, "token_count": 338, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-43", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-43__0__27735435", "lang": "en", "text": "Car wrecks are incredibly frustrating and inconvenient.

However, before you buy, make sure you know how much you can really afford. It is easy to get carried away and end up with a car or truck that is out of your price range. To know the amount you can afford to spend, revisit your budget. Consider not just the monthly payment, but also the cost of insurance, maintenance and repairs, gas, and parking too.\nIf you are not going to buy a car or truck outright, you will be borrowing for it. The more you borrow (finance), the more the vehicle will cost, so try to make as large a down payment as possible. When shopping for the best deal:\nDon’t be fooled by an advertised low monthly payment. If the length of the loan is long and the interest rate high, you may be paying more than you have to.\nLook for incentives. Dealers may offer reduced finance rates or cash back on specific models. However, avoid buying an expensive car just to get incentives. You may wind up spending more money on a fancy car with a low, promotional interest rate than an economical car with a higher interest rate.\nNegotiate. It is common to haggle over the price of the car, but if there is no special financing offer available, you may also be able to negotiate the interest rate and other repayment terms with the dealer.\nDo research. Compare the dealer’s financing with the loan you can get through your financial institution or other lenders. If you go to your financial institution before you start your car search, you will have a better idea of how much you can borrow and, thus, what cars you can afford.

So, to recoup the missing taxes, North Carolina would like to tax an extra $50 a year on hybrids and $100 a year on electric cars.\nAs a Prius owner, I am surprised at this idea of a misplaced tax. Why create a disincentive to drive a fuel-efficient car? Stephen Colbert had the following to say (starting at around time 2:20) ...\nAs a concerned citizen, I resolved to write a letter to my local representatives. Here is the letter that I sent ...\nAs you work to finalize the 2013-2015 state budget, I hope you would seriously reconsider removing and keeping out the “Prius tax” … that is the proposed annual $50 registration tax for hybrid cars and $100 for electric cars. I believe this is an unfair tax – one that penalizes rather than one that makes things “fair.”\nI understand the underlying concept behind the proposed tax. The idea is that owners of fuel-efficient cars consume less gallons of gas and pay less in total gas taxes each year. But at the same time, they drive the same number of miles as other drivers, and cause the same wear-and-tear on the roads. So, the less efficient car owners end up subsidizing the owners of more efficient cars. The idea is to make things “fair” by charging an extra flat fee on hybrid and electric car owners.\nLet’s do some quick math. Assume a car travels 10,000 miles a year. A hybrid gets an average of 45 MPG, and a conventional car gets 25 MPG. The hybrid owner uses 222 gallons during the year and pays (around 37 cents a gallon) $82 in taxes. The conventional car uses 400 gallons and pays $148 in taxes. At first this doesn’t seem fair, as the conventional car owner is paying $66 more in taxes than the hybrid car owner.\nTo make things fair (according to the idea behind the proposed Prius Tax), the hybrid owner pays an extra $50, so as to bring him up to $132 for the year … much closer to what the lower-gas-mileage car owner paid. And then everyone would be paying their “fair share.”\nHowever, there are some other factors to consider – the sum of which demonstrates how the Prius Tax would shift an unfair burden of taxes and punish a consumer for trying to save money through obtaining higher fuel efficiency.\nIncentives Against Fuel Efficiency\nWhen I first heard of the “Prius Tax,” my first gut reaction was, “Why in the world would my elected representatives institute a disincentive against fuel efficiency? Why would they reward the gas hogs?”\nDuring a time when Republicans and Democrats alike are promoting fuel efficiency, it’s a surprise that anyone would consider any disincentive such as the Prius Tax. A consumer considering whether to buy a hybrid/electric car vs. a conventional engine car may choose to buy the conventional car to avoid paying an extra annual tax. This would slow down the sales of hybrids/electrics and would increase fuel consumption and our reliance on foreign oil. This situation would be against the urgings of both President Obama and former President Bush.\nSimilarly, because of the recent economic downturn, many families have “hunkered down” and have become more efficient in their general spending. They have given up eating out and have learned to cook their own food. They have given up buying luxury items. They now make existing items last longer. These families end up paying less in sales taxes, thus being subsidized by the other families who haven’t cut spending.\nWould it then be correct to reward our frugal families with a “frugal tax” so as to get them to pay their “fair share” of the sales taxes? It should be clear that the answer should be no. If the family were charged an extra tax, then perhaps they would have been better off not being frugal … thus an incentive is created to be wasteful.\nIf one can see the ill-placed incentives and/or harmfulness of levying a “frugal tax” then hopefully one can also see the similar ill-placed incentives and harmfulness in levying a “Prius Tax.”\nMost hybrids (and some electric cars) are purchased by middle class families hoping to save money in the long run through paying less in gas consumption, while at the same time doing their own part to help conserve gas and cut down on pollution. Is this the constituency you really want to hit with an extra punitive tax?\nHybrid and Electric Car Owners Pay More in Other Taxes\nAdditionally, while hybrid/electric car owners pay less in gas taxes annually, they pay more in other taxes, which helps make up most of the difference.\nHybrids and electric cars cost more to make. A consumer considering to buy a car will find that hybrids cost on average around $3,500 more than a comparable conventional engine car. The premium for an electric car is much higher … around $15,000.\nWhen cars are first registered, North Carolina charges a one-time Highway Use Tax of 3%. The hybrid owner pays an extra $105 more than a conventional car owner. The electric car owner pays an extra $450 … most of which goes into improving North Carolina roads. Assuming a person owns a car for ten years, this would translate into a $10 annual tax on hybrids and $45 for electric car owners.\nNorth Carolina residents also pay annual property taxes to their local city and county governments. These moneys go into local public services, including the upkeep of local non-state roads. (And it so happens that most drivers drive most of their miles on non-state roads.) With an average rate of 1%, the hybrid owner will pay an extra $35 a year in property taxes, and the electric car owner will pay an extra $150 a year.\nElectric car owners pay a further tax on the extra electricity they use in charging their cars.\nRevisiting the original scenario, the conventional car owner still pays $148 taxes a year in gas taxes. However, the hybrid owner is now up to paying $127 in gas taxes (including the other additional taxes on the hybrid car premium). The electric car owner is now paying $195 a year in additional taxes on the electric car premium (not even including taxes on the extra electricity they consume). The hybrid owner’s total gas bill is now much closer to everyone else. And the electric car owner is actually paying more.\nIf we were to add the Prius Tax, the hybrid owner would then pay $177 a year (more than the conventional car driver), and the electric car owner would be paying $295 a year, which is double of what the conventional car owner pays.\nState Gas Taxes Cover More than Wear-and-Tear on the Roads\nNorth Carolina has one of the highest state gas taxes in the nation. As of 2012, North Carolina ranked 8th with around 37 cents. This isn’t far behind New York, the 1st state, with around 50 cents. It’s remarkably higher than Alaska, the last state, with around 8 cents.\nThe taxes are so high partly because funds from North Carolina’s gas taxes are allowed go to other expenditures other than those related to transportation. For example, funds are allowed to transfer from the Highway Trust Fund and Highway Fund into the state’s General Fund. Governor McCrory’s proposed budget calls for the transfer of 6.63% of transportation funds into “Other State Agencies,” which is much more than the anticipated gain from the Prius Tax.\nIf funds are really lacking for the purposes of repairing wear and tear, then in my opinion, the North Carolina legislature should first disallow transfers from the transportation funds before they even consider asking for the Prius Tax.\nIncidentally, Governor McCrory’s proposed budget does not include a Prius Tax, and even goes so far as to say one goal is for “no new taxes” (on page xvi “Highlights of the 2013-15 Budget”).\nNot All Cars Are Created Equal\nFinally, please consider these last considerations.\nHybrids and electric cars are not the only fuel-efficient cars on the road. There are several conventional-engine and diesel cars that have higher MPG ratings than do some hybrids. For example, the diesel engine 2013 Volkswagen Passat averages 37 MPG, while the hybrid engine 2013 Lexus LS 600h averages only 21 MPG.\nWithout the Prius Tax, the hybrid Lexus is “subsidizing” the Passat. Would it be fair to levy a $50 tax on the Lexus who is already paying more in gas taxes than the Passat?\nIf anything, North Carolina should consider using the car’s MPG rating in deciding whether to levy this new tax (rather than based on whether or not it’s a hybrid).\nAnd if paying the fair share of “wear and tear” is really an issue, then the Prius Tax fails to recognize the extra damage caused by trucks. These huge 18-wheeled vehicles cause much more damage to our roads in proportion to the gas taxes the drivers pay. If we were to continue the logic behind the Prius Tax, then we would also need to levy a Truck Tax, so as to make sure everyone pays their “fair share.”\nWith all these factors under consideration, I hope you can see how unfair and misplaced the Prius Tax is. It would unfairly target a specific type of car that may or may not have better fuel economy than the average conventional car, while ignoring eighteen-wheelers, which cause much more damage to the roads. The tax would primarily hurt middle class families who are trying to conserve fuel and save money in the long run. It would create an incentive against buying fuel-efficient cars. And it already is fuel for comedians, as evidenced by Stephen Colbert when he recently said, “I think North Carolina should go after all freeloader transportation that uses public roads but doesn’t pay into the system. Pedestrians should be hit with a walking tax. Bicyclists should be hit with a bicycle tax.”\nAlternatives to the Prius Tax\nThere are several alternatives to the Prius Tax that would help North Carolina receive the funds it needs while also matching taxes more fairly with expenditures.\n#1) Increase gas taxes: This would be easier to levy while maintaining proper incentives for everyone to not use as much gas.\n#2) Repeal the gas tax entirely and levy a higher flat registration fee on all vehicles equally. That is, if the legislature believes $100 is a fair tax to levy on electric cars that use no gas at all, then it should be equally fair to not charge anyone gas taxes and instead increase everyone’s annual registration fee by $100.\n#3) Instead of being repealed, the gas tax could be reduced, and a flat extra registration fee levied on all vehicles. This would maintain some income still coming from out of state.\n#4) Increase the Highway Use Tax for everyone … after all, isn’t that what the tax is created for?\n#5) Replace the gas tax with a miles-driven tax for every vehicle. There are several ways to determine/estimate miles driven in a year.\n#6) Tax tires more. The use of tires is somewhat proportional to miles driven.\n#7) Increase other taxes so that funds going to “Other State Agencies” would come from the appropriate taxing vehicles instead of from the transportation funds.\nThank you for taking the time to consider my concerns. I wish you luck in settling the budget as soon as possible, but I also hope that you will do so while considering what is the most fair.

Myers since 1977. The company was founded by Martin Snyder who named his business after his wife Anne. Originally this very small company started out as Annie's Autos, a local used car lot. As time passed customers kept returning to Annie's Autos to have repair work done. With the consistent increase in auto repair work Martin's son Greg Snyder saw the opportunity and decided to start focusing primarily on repairing vehicles instead of selling them. In the early 80's Greg increased the size of the company and opened up a larger auto repair shop including a separate spray booth for painting and a frame machine for structural repairs. The next 10 years went smoothly with the company slowly growing and changing to stay on top of the industry. In 1991 the company took it's next big step by moving to south Ft. Myers. In a newer 10,000 sq foot facility with 2 spray booths, additional body and paint technicians to handle the increase in business. With all these changes Greg Snyder brought in his wife Debbie to run the front office and shortly after his son Sean in to help keep things on track. At this time Annie's Auto Body teamed up with the new Lexus dealer in Ft. Myers and started specializing in the new car line. In the next few years Annie's Auto Body increased it's level of quality to mirror that of Lexus. Sean took several trips to the Lexus collision repair school and became a Lexus certified repair technician this helped insure the repairs were up to factory standards. Taking that level of quality to heart and expanding it throughout Annie's made sure every repair was done properly. In years to come Sean Snyder had his sights on growing the company further. After spending over a year designing the body shop of the future, Sean took his drawings and notes and did just that. In the fall of 2001 Annie's Auto Body became Annie's Collision Center, a 24,000 sq ft. facility that can handle every size of repair. With new ideas on paper only the future will know where this company will go next.

Buzz electric Microbus concept a reality by 2022, giving VW fans, EV enthusiasts, and modern day hippies alike a good reason to mark their calendars. The concept was first unveiled earlier this year to much acclaim, as the confluence of old school style and next-gen tech offered a much different take on the fully-electric car in a world filled with Teslas and Chevy Bolts.\nThe company’s CEO Dr. Herbert Diess acknowledged the concept’s popularity while outlining the plan to bring the Buzz to North American, European, and Chinese markets. He said VW was flooded with letters and emails from excited customers, imploring the company for building the car.\nThe production model all-wheel drive Buzz will offer drivers more than just a blast from the past. The next-gen Microbus will boast 369 hp from electric motors on each of its axles for extra handling ability.\nMost importantly, the Buzz is slated for up to 300 miles of range per charge, with the capability to power up to about 80 percent of its energy capacity in 30 minutes using VW’s fast-charging system.\nVW says the next-gen design will give the Buzz plenty of room for passengers and more. Moreover, the batteries will be mounted in the vehicle floor, and Volkswagen says the Buzz’s compact electric drive components mean that there’s even more space inside than previously possible with gas-powered bus designs.\nThe announcement is doubtlessly exciting for VW fans, but it shouldn’t come as a big surprise in the EV space. Volkswagen has another all-electric car concept, the I.D., slated for a 2020 release, and other automakers are doubling down on EVs for their future designs.

Automatic transmissions of today particularly those with front wheel drive technology or computerized systems are very complicated units.\nThere are over three thousand parts in today's average automatic transmission.\nThe parts for some late model imports can cost ten times as much as parts for older, larger cars.\nDiagnosing your cars transmission to determine what's wrong often calls for major surgery.

There is never an explanation of the physical principles involved in causing these changes. I hope in this article to explain the physical forces involved in driving a kart, along with how those forces are generated by the steering, and what the effect is on the track of changing the various parameters available as setup.\nAlthough a kart may seem to be rather simple device, it is perhaps a more difficult subject to explain than an equivalent car. Both vehicles have many parts and principles in common but there two major differences, which account for a large divergence in design and in setting up. These differences are the karts lack of differential, and also its lack of any suspension components.\nA good knowledge of the forces involved can help greatly when setting up a kart - giving the mechanic some knowledge as to what should happen when a parameter is changed. This should result in considerably less time spent on the track testing.\nThe steering geometry can be regarded at the movement and displacement of the front wheels as the steering wheel is turned. This movement is quite complex, and involves a number of different settings. There is one thing in common though, and that is the reason why we need a complicated geometry - We MUST lift the inside wheel while cornering.\nThe inside wheel lift is what enables a kart to go round a corner without using a differential.\nBecause of this lack of a differential, a karts natural direction of travel, forwards, is very difficult to change. This is down to the differing radii of turn experienced by the inner and outer rear wheels while turning a corner. The inside wheel is actually travelling a shorter distance than the outside, so therefor is needs to take fewer revolutions to go round the corner. However, the two rear wheels are attached by a solid axle, and must therefor move together, so in order to turn, one of the wheels need to skid over the track surface. In a car, the differential will allow the wheels to turn at different rates, without this skidding action.\nThis skidding action, or indeed the lack of it, is what make a stationary kart so difficult to turn round - you have to overcome the grip of one of the tyres, and with the sticky tyres used in many kart classes this can expend a lot of energy.\nThis is the reason for lifting the inside wheel and it effectively turns the kart into a tricycle during the cornering process! The steering geometry causes the inner rear wheel to lift off the ground while cornering, which means the wheel can rotate faster than it is passing over the ground. The rear inner wheel is no longer touching the track, and we therefor no longer need to overcome the grip from that tyre in order to turn.\nIn fact, depending on the power of the engine, we may be able to allow some scrub. For example, while a Prokart may need to entirely lift the inner wheel, because it does not have enough power to overcome the scrub, a more powerful kart may have power to spare in the corner, meaning that the power loss to scrub can be overcome. However, any scrub will start to cause understeer when entering a corner, so even though the engine may be powerful, it may still be necessary to completely lift the inner rear to maintain decent handling.\nHowever, we haven't yet explained how the front geometry can affect the rear wheel lift, and in order to do this, lets define a few terms used when describing front end geometry.\nCamber. This is the degree to which the front wheel lean in (or out) from each other. A camber setting of 0 means that both tyres sit flat on the track. Maximising the amount of rubber on the track is one of the aims of kart setup.\nCaster. This is the angle of the kingpin, which is the point around which the stub axles rotate. This is one of the most important settings for inducing wheel lift during cornering.\nToe In/Out. This is the angle at which the front wheels either point in towards each other, or away from each other. Zero degrees toe in/out means that the wheels are parallel. Toe in/out is set by changing the length of the tie rods.\nScrub Radius. This is distance from the centre of the tyre to the point where a line down the kingpin axis intersects the ground. Along with caster this affects wheel lift during cornering. Scrub radius is set using spacers on the stub axle.\nKing Pin Inclination. This is the inward lean of the kingpin, and it modifies the amount of camber change caused by the caster when steering. It is not usually possible (or necessary) to adjust the KPI although some camber adjust systems may let you do it.\nAckermann Steering. Ackermann steering uses the angle of the stub axle arms (and often an offset on the steering column) to make the inner wheel on a corner turn more than the outside wheel. With cars this is used to reduce tyre scrub on corner, but of more importance to karts is the greater wheel lift effect caused by increasing the inner wheels turn when compared to the outer.\nTo help explain how the front geometries affect the rear inside wheel, lets assume that the chassis is completely rigid - it is so stiff that it cannot bend in any direction. This assumption makes things a little easier to understand. Kart chassis are not actually this stiff - they flex in a number of areas. However, the differing effects caused by differing stiffness' in various parts of the chassis are beyond the scope of this article.\nWhen we turn a corner, the steering geometry (but mainly the caster setting and scrub radius) causes the inside wheel to move down in relationship to the chassis, and the outside wheel to move up. As this happen, because our chassis is rigid, it pivots around a line from the inside front and outside rear, causing the inside rear to lift!\nOK, so we have now explained how the front geometry is used to raise the inner rear wheel during cornering. There a quite a few other forces that come in to effect one a corner has been initiated, and that is what we will talk about next\nThese are the most obvious forces, and are a caused by the tyres exerting a force on the track, either forwards or backwards, with the result being to brake or accelerate.\nIts is important to remember that this force is in the same plane as the track, that is, it is below the karts centre of inertia. For this reason, the force exerts a turning moment (or torque) on the entire kart. During acceleration this torque causes a weight transfer to the rear of the kart, and during braking it causes a weight transfer to the front of the kart. There is no actual movement of any mass, but the torque effectively forces the appropriate part of the kart 'harder' down on the track. It is possible to calculate the amount of weight transfer if we know the acceleration and the distance from the centre of inertia to the rear wheels, but that is beyond the scope of this article.\nDuring cornering the driver feels like he is being pushed outwards from the kart. This is actually wrong, he is not being throw out but is simply trying to move in a straight line. The tyres of the kart are producing a grip which imparts an angular acceleration on the kart (and driver), forcing the kart to corner. It is this angular acceleration that the driver feels. The force which the ground imparts on the kart to make it corner is known as the Centripetal force, and it always acts at towards the centre of the imaginary circle we are cornering round. It important to remember that there is NO SUCH THING as centrifugal force.\nThe centripetal force is split into two components, a vertical and a horizontal. The horizontal force we have just described, but the vertical can be regarded as the cornering equivalent of the forward acceleration case. Because the centripetal force is acting on the kart, it imparts acceleration to it, and again, this acceleration is acting at ground level. Therefor a torque effect is again produced, but this time it is acting across the kart, and we get a weight shift to the outside of the kart. This weight shift also helps the inside wheel lift, as the weight shift reduces the weight on the inside wheel by an equivalent amount. Once cornering is initiated, this weight shift is more important to raising the inside wheel than the steering geometry.\nThe distance between the rear wheels affects how the centripetal force is distributed over the horizontal and vertical components. As track is increased, more centripetal force is distributed as a sideways force in relation to the weight shift. This means a wider track produces less weight shift to the outside rear, and more sideways force. A narrow track increases the weight shift and decreases the sideways force. Therefor a narrow track is less likely to exceed the grip of the tyres when cornering than a wide track. Consequently, the grippier the tyres used, the wider the stance can be before the grip is exceeded.\nOne final force to consider is a torque around the vertical axis experienced when accelerating during a corner. It is common knowledge that braking while cornering on a kart causes massive understeer (the kart attempts to continue in a straight line) while accelerating can improve cornering. This at first seems counterintuitive, since normally when accelerating there is a weight transfer to the rear, which you would expect to try to push the inside rear back onto the track. However, this weight transfer is dwarfed by the torque around this vertical axis caused by the fact that only one wheel rear wheel in on the track, and this wheel is offset from the centre of inertia.\nThe further this wheel is from the centreline of the kart (and therefor the centre of inertia), the greater the turning moment, and the more likely the kart is the overcome the grip of the tyre on the track . This causes the back to break away - oversteer when accelerating and understeer when braking.\nThis is usually explained by insufficient lifting on the inside wheel, causing the initial understeer. As the car starts to turn, weight transfer through centripetally caused torque on the chassis lifts the inside rear. Unfortunately, you now have so much steering lock on trying to initiate the turn, that once the inside rear lifts, the fronts are turned so far that massive oversteer usually results.\nThis can often be mistaken for a lack of rear end grip, since the final sensation is one of oversteer, but it in fact almost the opposite, since it's too much grip on the inside rear which is the main culprit.\nWe can use the steering geometry to cure this problem. As we showed above, increasing caster causes the inside front to move down further, thereby increasing inside rear lift. Also, moving the front wheels out on their stub axle (increasing the scrub radius) gives a greater effect, with the same result. Also, increasing the Ackerman effect can have an influence on this - making the inside wheel turn further and therefor move further down.\nThis is where on turning the wheel, the kart immediately and rapidly changes direction, the rear end breaks away, which results in a spin, or rear end slide.\nThis is down to insufficient rear end grip - as the turn is started, the inside wheel lifts, but the outside rear is unable to cope with the extra cornering forces involved, and breaks away. So we either have approached the corner too fast - and hence corner forces have overcome the grip of the tyre, or the tyre isn't producing the required grip level.\nIf the inside wheel is lifting a long way, this can causes grip problem since the tyre is at a larger angle to the track. Kart tyres do not react well to large angles of attack (unlike road or car race tyres which are able to distort to a greater extent because of a lower profile ratio), and this reduces grip. Reducing caster may reduce initial lift, but may also detrimentally affect initial turn in. Since the centripetal force acting on the kart overrides the caster settings while corning, there is probably a problem with the chassis more than the front geometry. It is flexing too far and allowing the rear too far off the track. Moving the rear hubs outwards can improve this situation, since a wider stance makes it harder for the centripetal forces to lift the inside rear, thereby decreasing the amount it will lift in any given corner.\nIf the back breaks away under braking or acceleration, then its possible that our rears are too far apart, which increases the rotational torque under changes of speed. Since this is most noticeable in wet weather, its is more fully described in the next section.\nIt could be that our tyre is running at the wrong pressure - and is therefor not at the right temperature to produce the required grip level. Tyre pressures are an arcane science that also won't be explored here, so the best option is to try different pressures during testing, once initial handling has been sorted out.\nThis is where things get (even more) complicated. The ultimate aim is the same, but because of various changed factors, there are some alterations to make\nIn the wet, we are cornering much more slowly, and we cannot accelerate as fast, or brake as heavily because of the lower grip levels available.\nLower corner speed means we do not get the same level of centripetal force during cornering, so the inside rear may not lift correctly. Moving the front wheels outwards emphasises the twisting effect induced by caster, improving initial turn in. In effect the front geometry has more of an effect throughout the corner in wet weather than in dry, where it is overshadowed by the centripetal forces.\nBecause we still have the same amount of power available, in low grip conditions the rotational torque caused on power application can exceed the grip levels more easily, causing rapid spin out. Moving the rear wheels in reduces this torque, so more power can be applied without breaking rear end grip. Some people refer to moving the rears inwards as increasing grip. This is not strictly true - the grip level remains the same, but the power can be applied more efficiently along the chassis, giving forward acceleration, rather than as a rotation torque which can cause spin out.\nYou are sure to encounter many other problems with handling, but there isn't the space to go into them all here. However, hopefully the information presented should now be enough to make an educated guess as to the causes of any problems.\nYou will have guessed by now that we have described an optimal set of parameters for the kart geometry and wheel setup. Of course this never happens - tyre grip level change according to the circuit, weather, and the whim of the manufacturer, some circuits are mostly large radius corners while other are very twisty. What we need is to get to a setup that sits in the mid range of acceptable parameters, and adjust along this range for a particular circuit. For example, on a low grip circuit (or in cold weather) we may want to increase the caster to improve initial turn in. In very cold weather we may want to increase toe in, forcing the tyres to scrub, and therefor warm up faster to the required grip level. However, this can cause other handling problems, which may need to be over come.\nThe most important thing is to ensure that the inner rear contributes little or no grip in order to improve handling and reduce scrub and hence power loss. This is so important to keeping up speed through the corner, and makes handling so much more manageable.\nHowever, we can also see from the explanations above that changing some settings can affect more that one area. For example, changing the distance between the rear wheels affects both weight transfer across the kart, and the rotation torque caused by accelerating or braking while cornering. Setting the kart up, even with of good knowledge of why a particular change works, still requires a certain amount of track time, although hopefully with the additional knowledge presented here, this track time can be greatly reduced.\nReprinted with the permission of Karting Magazine.\nThanks to James Hughes for supplying the article!\nFront End Geometry - Terms explained http://www.muller.net/karting/docs/technical/frontgeo.html\nUnderstanding & Adjusting Front-end Geometry.

When\nthe kart is scaled properly, the ideal weight distribution is\nachieved. As a result, the kart will have the potential to perform\nat its optimum level. If the kart is not scaled properly, the\nopposite will be true. The machine will never perform at its optimum\nlevel, nor will it respond positively to chassis adjustments.\nSome common problems of an improperly scaled kart include under-steer,\nexcessive or insufficient load on any one tire, chassis binding,\nand lack of side bite in cornering among many other problems.\nAn improper weight distribution can also lead to incorrect diagnosis\nof handling problems at the track. For most karts, the following\nweight distribution is recommended:\n43% Front Weight\n57% Rear Weight\n50%/50% Left/Right Weight\nThese are just recommended starting points. Weight can be moved around at the track to fine tune the handling characteristics of the chassis. Moving weight to the front of the kart will provide more front-end grip. If weight is moved to the rear of the kart, the effect will be more rear-end grip. Weight can also be moved vertically up or down. Moving the weight upwards will provide more grip wherever the weight is located. For example, if weight is placed high on the seat, we could expect more grip in the rear of the kart. If weight is placed lower on the seat, we would expect the kart to lose rear-end grip.\nThe seat placement is the single most important weight adjustment on the kart and is done before the scaling process. Proper seat placement may result in almost perfect weight distribution before the weight is added to the kart. Each manufacturer has different instructions for doing this, and it is wise to follow those instructions as carefully as possible. If you have bought a used kart and do not have instructions, call your local dealer and they should be cooperative.\nThe following steps are very important to the scaling accuracy of your kart.\nEnsure that the floor is level. To compensate for a floor that is not level, place shims under the appropriate corner scales.\nSet castor and camber that is consistent on both sides of the kart.\nSet spindle heights consistently on both sides of the kart.\nSet toe (always remember to set toe after setting caster and camber) and center the steering wheel. If the wheels are not centered during weighing, the geometry of the kart will cause each corner to be loaded incorrectly. As a result, the readings on your scales will be false\nCheck the tyres to make sure they are at a race setting.\nAdd weight in the appropriate place to approximate a typical race fuel load. Remember that fuel weights are dynamic. They will change during the race.\nHave the driver sit in his/her normal driving position before the scale reading is taken. Try to avoid unnecessary movements of the head or arms, as these actions will result in a false reading.\nAs well, the driver should wear full race gear during weighing to have the highest level of accuracy possible.\nZero all scales and take the reading.\nAdjusting Kart Weight\nIf the weight distribution is off after the scaling process is complete, adding weight can aid in perfecting the distribution. As is the case with many drivers, weight usually has to be added anyway. Many manufacturers give detailed instructions where to place weight in order to improve the distribution. However, a good rule is to center the weight somewhere on the seat, given that the mass of the kart needs to be centered as best as possible. Adding weight to the seat aids in this. While adding weight to the seat is the best method, filling the frame with lead shot is not. The lead will shift during cornering, cause handling problems, and will deaden the chassis responsiveness.\nIf the driver does not need to add weight, they are probably at the weight limit of their class. Drivers in this case are always reluctant to add weight just to improve the weight distribution. However, there is evidence that adding the weight to perfect the weight distribution is more beneficial than leaving the ten pounds off. It is ultimately up to the driver to test both methods, then choose the quickest alternative.\nAfter the correct distribution is achieved, the driver should make one more observation. The front wheels should weigh within five pounds of each other. The same situation applies to the rear wheels too. If this is not the case, re-check the factors effecting weight distribution given above and re-scale the kart. If the problem still exists, you may have to readjust the seat again and start the process all over again. Only then will the proper distribution be achieved.\nArticle courtesy Century Performance Products\nThis article was kindly contributed to our site by John Learmonth, J.L. Racing Products.\nDoes this seem familiar to you . . . you reach the turn-in point of the corner, turn the wheel, and the kart seems to abruptly go into oversteer. It then misses the apex and slides wide into the middle of the corner, scrubbing speed and bogging down through the corner exit? If it is, then the problem may have little or nothing to do with the rear end.\nPoor corner turn-in is a very common handling problem. If the kart understeers at the instant you turn the wheel, the front tyres are momentarily sliding. Often they suddenly regain grip, causing a violent change of direction, which upsets the rear end giving the rear tyres little chance to produce grip, so the kart slides into the corner in an oversteering condition.\nAs this initial understeer may only last a fraction of a second it's often not noticed, and can lead the driver to think the problem is in the rear end of the kart. This condition (turn-in understeer/oversteer) is usually caused by not having enough scrub radius (front track width) and / or caster angle in the front end. This can easily be made much worse by incorrect toe and camber settings.\nIf the kart just understeers at corner turn-in, the problem may still be not enough scrub radius and / or caster, but may also be that you are still braking when turning-in. Too much rear weight bias can also cause both turn-in understeer and understeer/oversteer.\nFor effective chassis tuning, certain basic things have to be at least close to correct to begin with, or you are likely to only be getting seat time. When trying to diagnose handling problems, it is very important to make sure the problem is not the tyres or the toe and camber alignment.\nTyres are the point of contact between the kart and the track, and are the single most important part of the chassis, as this is where the grip happens. The best chassis in the world is only able to grip and handle to the capacity of the tyres. If the tyres are old and hard, any chassis adjustments you make will only result in different kinds of bad handling (with poor grip).\nSo tyres must be in good condition (the newer the better, and usually no more than 4 meetings old for YEQ's). They should also be at least close to the correct pressures, (tyre pressures should be set for maximum consistent grip, and only adjusted to fine tune the handling, not to make large changes). I personally prefer about 20 to 23 psi (1.4 to 1.6 bar with factor 14.5) in YEQ's, but this will vary with kart make / model, track conditions, total kart weight etc. As a general rule you should use more pressure in hard tyres and less in soft ones (YEQ tyres are a fairly hard compound).\nEven if you manage to find a half way reasonable set-up with old (hard) tyres, the settings are likely to be useless as soon as you put new tyres on the kart, resulting in the waste of the new rubber and uncompetitive times.\nToe and camber, at least as the basic starting point should always be set to zero settings (ie. the front wheels parallel to each other both horizontally and vertically). Zero toe and camber may not always be the absolutely perfect settings, but are going to be very close.\nA zero toe setting will lessen tyre scrub and friction on the straights, which will lessen the rolling resistance of the kart. Rolling resistance lowers the acceleration and top speed the kart can produce, resulting in wasted engine power (which you've probably paid your engine builder lots of money for).\nZero (or very close to zero) camber settings will help to keep the full width of the front tyre's tread in contact with the track surface when cornering, particularly at mid corner and corner exit.\nAs it's very common to see full sized racing cars using obvious negative camber settings, some karters conclude that if this is OK for F1 and Indycar teams, it must be the right thing to do. Unfortunately for those karters thinking this way, the tyres used in most other forms of motorsport are radically different in their construction being radials, while kart tyres use cross-ply (bias-belted) (diagonal) construction. Radial tyres have much more flexible sidewalls than cross-plies, and because of this can work well at larger camber settings. The stiffer sidewall of a cross-ply tyre means it has to be kept very close to vertical to work correctly.\nInaccurate camber incorrectly loads the tyre and lessens the size of the contact patch. As a result this smaller tyre 'footprint' will have a tendency to overheat. Especially in hot conditions, this contributes strongly to premature tyre wear and inconsistent handling (ie. the kart will handle differently as the race progresses, probably tending to increased understeer).\nAt most race meetings you will see plenty of front tyres with substantial wear on the inside edge, yet virtually unworn on the outside. You won't see many, if any tyres looking like this at the front of the grid for the final.\nIt's really very simple, if the rubber's not in firm contact with the track, it's not providing grip, and the rubber which is contacting the track is being asked to do the work of the entire tread width, which it wasn't designed to do. Poor camber settings can have a similar (but not identical) effect as fitting undersized (narrow) tyres. I'm sure nobody would deliberately put narrow tyres on their kart!\nIn racing, it takes only a tiny deficit to lose large amounts of track distance. For instance, if you're only losing 1% to the kart in front due to poor alignment (or any other reason), then in ten laps on a 700-metre track you will lose 70 metres.\nLooking at this another way; on the same track, assuming a 'hot lap' time of 30 seconds, then a 1% deficit is equal to losing 3 tenths of a second per lap. An expensive engine blueprint might gain you 3 tenths. So why waste this costly and valuable advantage with poor alignment?\nToe and camber are among the most important settings on the kart, but they are also the two settings most likely to significantly alter when the driver's weight is placed in the seat. This shouldn't be surprising, since driver weight can easily be over half the on-track kart weight.\nIf a kart is aligned to zero toe and camber without the driver seated, it is certain to have some unpredictable amount of negative camber with the driver. Most karts (but not all) will gain some unpredictable amount of toe-in, up to three millimetres is quite possible (this is equal to about 8 to 10 mm's on a full size car tyre). Toe-in can easily contribute to poor turn-in as it makes the kart more resistant to change of direction and lessens turn-in weight transfer (see below).\nAs the kart will always be raced with the driver in it, it is strongly recommended both the toe and camber be adjusted to zero settings with the driver seated in the kart.\nThis is by far the best starting point for setting camber, and the exact setting can be fine tuned using tyre wear as a guide. If you're lucky enough to have a tyre temperature gauge, adjust from tyre temperatures across the tread. A kart set up to zero toe and camber with the driver will have some positive camber and probably some toe-out without the driver.\nWorn steering components can cause substantial increased toe and camber change with driver weight, and can also contribute to unstable alignment settings in transitional stages of the corner. It doesn't take very much wear in the tie-rod ends, king-pin bearings or wheel bearings to affect alignment.\nTo check for worn tie rod ends, attempt to move the rod end up and down vertically. Any up and down movement indicates wear is present (some cheaper rod ends have some movement even when new).\nScrub radius (also called 'kingpin offset') and caster angle work together to produce a diagonal mechanical weight transfer from the inside rear tyre and the outside front tyre, to the outside rear tyre and the inside front tyre. This weight transfer causes the inside rear tyre to be physically lifted from the track surface at turn in. If this weight transfer is not great enough, the combined grip of the rear tyres can simply push the front wheels straight ahead.\nThis mechanical weight transfer means the inside front tyre is much more heavily loaded than the outside front tyre at turn-in. As a result, the inside front tyre provides most of the front-end grip at turn-in. Once into the middle part of the corner most of the kart weight is transferred to the outside tyres (due to cornering force). The mechanical weight transfer then becomes far less important (and can even be counter productive) and is largely superseded by weight transfer due to cornering forces (lateral 'g' forces, causing frame flex).\nA wider rear track width will also make lifting the inside rear wheel off the track more difficult. As it's often necessary to use a wide rear track, this makes it all the more important to have the front-end settings properly sorted out.\nMany people will advise you to add toe-out if the kart won't turn-in to the corner properly. This may help turn-in, but introduces it's own problems. I would recommend instead, increasing the scrub radius, and / or the caster angle. The only conditions in which I would recommend using toe settings other than zero would be in the rain, or if all other means of improving the turn in have failed (in which case some extra toe out may be an acceptable compromise).\nIncreasing either caster angle or scrub radius will increase the inside rear wheel lift at corner turn-in, which is really what you are after (if the kart is turning in badly). Increased caster may require using more positive camber to keep the tread flat on the track during cornering. Be aware that increased scrub radius and / or caster can contribute to front tyre overheating in some conditions.\nA very flexible chassis may need more scrub radius and / or caster than a more rigid chassis, as much of the mechanical lift can be taken up with excessive frame flex, especially if the kart is a bit of an old floppy noodle!\nToo little weight over the front wheels (and too much over the rear wheels) could also be the problem. If you suspect this, try moving the seat forward. Because moving the seat is such a pain and can result in lots of holes in your nice seat, many people don't experiment with moving it. When moving the seat, don't move it more than 2 cm's at a time. Trying to tune a chassis with bad weight distribution is often impossible.\nIncorrect driving style can easily cause poor turn-in as well. When turning into a corner, many racers (in an effort to be smooth) turn the steering wheel too gently. This causes an indecisive lifting of the inside rear wheel, when what you want is for the wheel to lift AT the point of turn-in.\nPoor turn-in tends to get worse during the course of a race. When the tyres are sliding they are subject to more friction which increases the amount of heat build up in the tread. This sets up a downward spiral of grip loss and exaggerated tyre wear.\nOne of the keys to a good handling chassis, is balanced grip front to rear. This balance can be greatly enhanced if the tyre footprints can be kept as large and consistent as possible, for as much of the corner as possible.\nMany racers will try to balance the handling by reducing the grip at the end of the kart they perceive has too much. A better approach is to increase the grip at the end of the kart that has less grip. Grip is only too great if the chassis cannot use it, usually manifested by chassis hop. If this happens, do whatever is necessary to stiffen the chassis and / or lower the centre of gravity until the hop goes away. Only if the hop can't be eliminated, or the other end of the kart just can't be adjusted to give equal grip front to rear, should you consider deliberately reducing grip at either end of the kart. Always go for the more grip option if possible.\nGood turn-in is usually not that difficult to tune into the chassis, if you know what to adjust. Be careful not to go too far though, as too much turn-in can make the kart twitchy and difficult to drive smoothly. Too much scrub radius and caster makes the kart overly sensitive to steering input, and can result in a chassis that needs constant steering corrections. Remember that every time the steering wheel is turned it causes substantial diagonal weight transfer between the front and rear wheels. If you're sawing away at the wheel, the tyres are being rapidly loaded and unloaded, which really upsets the stability of the chassis.\nIt's not unusual to spend a day testing and still be unsure if any improvement has been made. Lap times may well be better at the end of a test day, but this is often due to the driver improving with practice. It's very possible to be faster at the end of testing, with a worse set-up! This can be especially true if the number of practice days are limited.\nAll else being equal, a well set-up 'bad' chassis will always handle better than a poorly set-up 'good' chassis, and there is usually more gain to be had from a good chassis set-up than a good engine set-up. Keep in mind that a handling problem may not occur during practice, but can raise it's ugly head in racing. This is usually the result of the driver being able to find just that bit extra on race day!\nFront-end settings have a huge effect on the overall handling of the kart. If your kart turns-in to a corner the way it should, then the rest of the corner will be easier and faster to negotiate as you are not having to catch up with the effects of poor turn-in. In addition, the rest of the chassis is likely to be easier and less confusing to tune if the front end is functioning properly.\nFinally, many handling problems that may at first seem similar can easily stem from different causes. Any adjustment you make to your kart is only correct if it lowers your lap times, assuming that the basic alignment is at least close to accurate.\nJohn Learmonth. J.L.

He spends hours and hours and many dollars preparing the engine so that it will deliver the maximum amount of horsepower. By the time he bolts it onto his nice shiny chassis, every detail of that engine is perfect. But what about the nice shiny chassis? Sure it has been washed and polished and at the track the wheels and tyres will be pumped up and moved in and out to suit the track. But is it perfect like the engine.\nIt is all too often that the karter who wants to improve the handling of his kart will go out and purchase the latest in wheels, tyres and other optional equipment and then after paying out a handsome sum of money, find that the thing in fact handles worse. The fact is that the first stage in achieving a good handling kart that will deliver the greatest percentage of power available to the ground is to go right back to basics. It is this area with which we will now attempt to deal with. What is written in this article will, with these basic requirements to good handling, apply equally to all karts regardless to make or class in which the kart is to be run.\nRegardless as to whether you have just purchased a new chassis or you are trying to improve your old chassis, before going out on the track, you should strip the kart of it's seat and wheels and get the tape measure out.\nThe first dimension to check is the parallel between the front stub axles at dead a head steering and the rear axle. to do this, it is necessary to measure each side of the kart from the back of the rear axle to both the bottom and the top of the king pin bolt. Both sides should be even. If this is out it is then necessary to stretch the side of the chassis that is shorter. this can be achieved by jacking between the bearing hanger at the rear and the king pin post. It is usually necessary to jack the chassis a little further than the difference, as it will spring back. However, carry this operation out with care, otherwise you could possibly end up with the longest kart in the country. it is vital that the kart be the same length on both sides. If it is not, then it will not matter how much care you take with the front end alignment, as the kart will always want to steer better in one direction and will wear tyres.\nIt is important when equalising the chassis length that both sides are equal for both dimensions A and B as shown in the sketch in the book. To ensure this, it may be necessary to heat the front axle and twist the top of the king pin with the greatest lean back to a more upright position to match the other side.\nOnce the chassis is the same length on both sides, it is time to align the steering. Before proceeding to carry out this task, take your front wheels to a machine shop and have your rims machined so that the inner and outer diameters on both wheels are all exactly the same size. Once this has been done it is possible to use a straight edge to check the front wheel alignment.\nThe first thing to do when aligning the steering, is to centralise the steering. This is necessary so as to have the kart steering evenly in both directions, and tracking well in a straight line.\nThe steering shaft in most modern karts is offset to the brake side of the kart. This, with the wheels fitted, it is necessary to find the difference from the centre of the steering shaft at the steering yoke to the inside of each front wheel level with the steering arm on the king pin. This amount of offset should then be built into the tie rods when the steering yoke is at bottom dead centre. Once this has been achieved, the toe in, toe out desired can be adjusted by equally lengthening or shortening both tie rods. Before setting the toe in, it is wise to place your straight edge across your machined wheels and check that both are set on the same amount of camber. It may be necessary to heat and bend one or both stub axles to achieve this. Once the camber is equal and at the desired angle, proceed with the front wheel alignment.\nSo far we have trued the kart so that it is now the same length on both sides and the front end alignment is correct. The next stage is to check if the kart is twisted. To achieve this place the wheels and tyres back on the kart and with the tyres correctly inflated, place the kart on a flat floor. Then using a set of scales lift each front wheel by hooking the scale hook around the king pin. Then spin the wheel you have lifted and slowly lower the kart until the wheel touches the floor and note the amount of lift needed at the point of contact. Each side of the kart should require the same amount of lift. If this is not the case, the chassis is twisted. To rectify the problem, place the rear wheel on the same side as the kart is light at the front and with someone standing on the opposite rear wheel twist the light front side of the kart down. This should be repeated until the both front wheels carry the same amount of weight. Once the front is even the back will also be even.\nAll that now remains to be checked is if the rear axle is located central to the chassis. This is best done by firstly centering off the chassis tubes and then checking the axle diagonally with the tops of the king pins. This diagonal check is important and will tell you if the chassis runs out of line in the centre. If the diagonal check shows up a fault in the chassis, it is best to leave the chassis alone and simply offset the axle slightly to overcome the problem. Once this is done, the ends of the rear axle can be used accurately for setting the position of the rear hubs.\nAll of the preceding information is useless unless you work accurately. It is also useless unless you follow the order of work as we have laid out. Thus to get the maximum results for your labours you:\n* Check and correct the alignment of the rear axle with the alignment of the centre line of the front stub axles.\n* Centralise the steering.\n* Set the front camber equal on both sides.\n* Adjust the front wheel alignment.\n* Check the chassis for twist and correct and finally you correctly locate the rear axle.\nOnce all this is completed, you have a chassis that will give the best results it is capable of, regardless to the class in which you are going to run.\nIt is only after all this has been done, that you should even start to think about setting up for a particular class.\nA few more small jobs to carry out before setting up. First pull every bearing and moving part off your chassis and thoroughly clean and oil it where necessary. Make sure that each moving part is in good condition and if it is doubtful, replace it. Make sure that all king pin bearings are a good fit and not sloppy. The same applies to steering shaft bearings, tie rod ends, wheel bearings and axle bearings. Check the kart for any cracks and repair where necessary. Then put the whole thing back together using new nyloc nuts throughout. When you have done all this take the kart out onto the track and you will be delighted just how much difference a correctly assembled, true and correct chassis is. Even without changing your original wheel and set arrangements.\nHaving gone this far, get some practice in and collect some lap times, before going on and learning how to set up for a particular class.\nWe have covered the act of putting your chassis right. The whole aim of this was to let you put your shop in order, before going out on the track and wasting a lot of time trying out different set ups on a chassis that had no hope of handling well. So if you have not done this, go back to the beginning and get things right before continuing.\nFor further information on this subject we recommend that you purchase the book \"Racing The Go-Kart\" (click for details)\nCopyright AKR Publishing Pty Ltd.\n(This should be read after the Chassis setup page)\nThe first basic thing to realise about SL tyres is that they give less grip. As a result the wide stance of a kart that runs on open tyres will not necessarily work. To start setting up on SL tyres, set the kart up fairly wide and then after several laps bring the rear track in 1.0cm (0.5cm per side). Keep on repeating this procedure until the back of the kart stops sliding and starts to lift when cornering. Each time out on the track it is necessary to travel about four laps before testing for grip as the SL tyres require considerable warming up.\nIf, with the rear wheels set in as far as they will go, the rear still wants to slide out from under you (oversteer), then it is almost certain that the seating position is too low. to correct this, simply lift the rear of the seat two centimetres and redrill and locate in this new position. Repeat if necessary. Sure you will end with a few additional holes in your best seat, but these can be filled after the correct seat position is found.\nAn additional cause of oversteer can be that the seat is actually located too far back in the chassis. If after all else is tried it may be necessary to relocate the seat in a more forward position. Understeer is the term used to describe the situation that occurs when you turn into a corner and the kart tends to travel straight ahead, ignoring your commands through the steering wheel.\nNow understeer that occurs only when you turn in one direction and is replaced by oversteer when you turn in the other direction, is usually the result of a twisted chassis. If this is the case, go back to the beginning of setting up your chassis and start again. Once you have the kart handling consistently in both directions and you find that you have the rear end of the kart handling well, but the front is pushing or understeering, the first step is to widen the front track.\nThis can usually be achieved by spacing the front wheels out on the stub axles. However, if there is no room to adjust the front wheels out, it will be necessary, particularly on some earlier karts, to either further recess the outside wheel bearings or to modify the stub axles to provide for further widening of the front track.\nThe ideal toe in, toe out to run is zero. Or in other words, the front wheels should be parallel when the kart is travelling in a straight line. this set up provides the minimum amount of drag and thus the best straight line performance. However, some added toe out can reduce understeer and if the kart is suffering excessive understeer, a little toe out will improve lap times.\nA point of interest here is that the most stable set up is the one where the kart tends to understeer just a little into corners, while under brakes and then turns to neutral steering when the power is evened out and the kart is driven out of the corner. By this we do not mean total understeer, just enough to let you think that understeer may be present. A kart set up this way is very stable into corners and is easy to drive. A kart that oversteers is always difficult to drive, requires too much concentration and is a handful in an emergency.\nWhen setting your kart up for handling it is a good idea to find the longest corner and set the kart up to bounce a little on this corner, this bounce should not be enough to put you off line. It should be kept within easily controllable limits. If the kart is set up this way, then it will be giving maximum grip through the longest corner and this is where the greatest saving in lap times is available.\nThe first thing that should by said about tyre pressures, is that they are very personal things. What is the correct pressures, will vary from kart to kart and driver to driver.\nHowever, as a guide to a good starting point and assuming that you are running 4.5 fronts and 7.1 rears, the following will help. A good starting point for your tyre pressures are 13psi-14psi at the front and 15psi-17psi at the rear. However, the only way to correctly set your tyre pressures is with the help of a tyre temperature gauge or pyrometer. By increasing or decreasing the pressures until both front tyres give close to even temperatures across the tyre tread will provide both the best tyre performance and the longest tyre life. In other words, the temperature on the outside edge, the middle and the inside edge of the tread on any given tyre should be as close to equal as you can get it. It is usually impossible to get dead even temperature readings, but the closer the better. The same applies to the rear tyres. Do not try to obtain the same temperature readings on all tyres, just even readings across each tyre. The outside tyres on any given track will always register higher readings, as they do most of the work. However, the difference between outside tyres and inside tyres should be kept as low as possible. the closer this difference, the better all four wheels are sharing the work load.\nAs to the running in of new tyres, we are not too sure how much this improves tyre life. However, it does not hurt the tyres and can be stated as a wise practice.\nFinally it must be said, that all of this is a waste of time if your chassis preparation does not include making sure that the rear axle, the brake disc and the front wheels all run free. Also important is the wheel balance.\nFor further information on this subject we recommend that you purchase the book \"Racing The Go-Kart\" (click for details)\nCopyright AKR Publishing Pty Ltd.\n:- should be fitted lower down if the driver is a bigger build and higher up for small or light drivers. The lighter or smaller driver may achieve better rear wheel grip if the lead is higher on the seat, the heavier driver should try securing the weight to the sides of the seat to keep the kart balanced. Also use the weights to balance the kart alround, more towards the front to achieve better front end grip, and back for better rear end grip. In the wet have the weight as high as possible to achieve better grip all round.\nRear track :- is very important, moving the rear wheels in will cause the kart to grip the track a bit harder don't go in to far otherwise this will cause the kart to handle badly, moving the wheels out will give a better ride it will also stop the rear of the kart from bouncing around the corners! when moving wheels in or out, only go about 10mm each side at a time and test it!\nFront track :- if your kart is not turning into the corner properly try widening the front by 5-10mm each side this should reduce the front end slide (understeer) and cause the steering to be more direct. Narrowing the front track will make the steering less responsive, the front wheel alignment should be set to 0mm - 2mm toe out, check with your karts supplier for the recommended settings.\n|The Kart does not want to turn into Corners.||\ntoo much rear end grip (Balance is out)\n-Move front track out,\n-Move rear track out,\n-Add rear seat stays,\n-add rear torsion bar,\n-move set forward,\n-remove front torsion bar,\n-increase rear tire pressures\n-check toe out (start with 1mm out)\n|The kart turns in too quickly.||\ntoo much front end grip (balance is out)\n-Move front track in,\n-move front track in\n-remove rear seat stays\n-remove rear torsion bar\n-move seat back\n-add front torsion bar\n-lower rear tire pressures\n-check toe out\n|Kart does not grip in corners/ other karts are faster in corners.||\nToo little grip\nspeed to fast\ntoo much slide, loss of time in corner\n-move front track out\n-move rear track in\n-remove seat stays\n-remove torsion bar(s)\n-adjust tire pressures\nKart bogs down in Corners.\n(Kart becomes unstable, hops and loss of time in corner)\nToo much grip in setup\n(when rectified it can provide better acceleration and in turn better top end speed)\n-move front and rear track out\n-add seat stays\n-add torsion bar(s)\n-adjust tire pressures\n|Other Karts are much faster in the straights||Gear ratio too short/ Wrong driving line in previous corner||\n-Take off a few teeth\n-evaluate driving line\n-shorten pipe length (flex flange)\n-check carby settings\n|Kart lacks acceleration over short distances||Gear ratio too tall/ Wrong driving line in previous corner||\n-add a few teeth\n-evaluate driving line in corners\n-lengthen pipe length\n-check carby settings\n-Check kart setup\nRemember tires are best when new and could play a key role in getting your correct setup.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.courtneysgarage.co.uk/Courtney.html", "date": "2021-06-17T20:08:25Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-25/segments/1623487633444.37/warc/CC-MAIN-20210617192319-20210617222319-00409.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9628775119781494, "token_count": 218, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2021-25", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2021-25__0__207038067", "lang": "en", "text": "The Courtney name is synonomus within the motor business, having first opened its doors to the motoring public of Fermanagh, and neighbouring counties back in 1950.

Get the best out of your car shopping experience with the following advice.\nThe Internet can be scoured for some good deals. You can save a lot by doing some research online. Find what you like, and have your dealership order it for you. Going in person, however, is the cheapest route.\nGet your financing set up before you visit a dealership. Check with a bank or local credit union to get this done. You will often get a better interest rate by doing this, and you will walk into the dealership knowing how much you can really afford to pay for your new car.\nHave a good idea of the car that you desire beforehand. Look online to find what would work best for your personal situation. This also lets you know how much you should really be paying for a specific vehicle.\nPrior to purchasing a used car, make sure that a mechanic inspects it thoroughly. When a dealership refuses, they are usually hiding something. Good mechanics will be able to see major problems like previous wrecks or water damage.\nAbsolutely refrain from paying the full asking price for any car. The sticker price is not what the dealer expects to get for the car. Bring a friend that is a good negotiator if that is not your strong point. Before you set foot on the lot, research the vehicle to determine what constitutes a fair price.\nCar shopping will take many hours. Do not allow feeling rushed to force you into a deal you aren’t comfortable with. Plan for several hours, at least. If you don’t have time to finish the deal, just come back later.\nAsk your family and friends about what they know about cars. Do they like their cars? Do they regret purchasing it? Have they heard anything interesting from their friends and family? Talking with friends and acquaintances is a thing to do when shopping for a new car.\nNever buy a vehicle unless you have taken a test drive. Even if you once had the same exact vehicle, you have to be sure that this one works just as well. There could always be an issue with that specific car, and you will never know unless you drive it.\nWait until you have a deal on the vehicle of your choice prior to discussing trade-ins, incentives or down payments. This will be taken care of after the fact. You will get a better price by negotiating the deal first, and then discussing these “extras”.\nConsider purchasing outside of a dealership. Often, you can find just the right vehicle through private sales or smaller lots. Social media marketplaces and classified ads are excellent tools for locating affordable, desirable vehicles that are nearby.\nYou can’t wait for deals to come to you. You must know where to look, what to avoid and how you can dodge obstacles along the way. Be prepared to counter their math with your own.

But signalized intersections aren’t just a minor nuisance for drivers; vehicles consume fuel and emit greenhouse gases while waiting for the light to change.\nWhat if motorists could time their trips so they arrive at the intersection when the light is green? While that might be just a lucky break for a human driver, it could be achieved more consistently by an autonomous vehicle that uses artificial intelligence to control its speed.\nIn a new study, MIT researchers demonstrate a machine-learning approach that can learn to control a fleet of autonomous vehicles as they approach and travel through a signalized intersection in a way that keeps traffic flowing smoothly.\nUsing simulations, they found that their approach reduces fuel consumption and emissions while improving average vehicle speed. The technique gets the best results if all cars on the road are autonomous, but even if only 25 percent use their control algorithm, it still leads to substantial fuel and emissions benefits.\n“This is a really interesting place to intervene. No one’s life is better because they were stuck at an intersection. With a lot of other climate change interventions, there is a quality-of-life difference that is expected, so there is a barrier to entry there. Here, the barrier is much lower,” says senior author Cathy Wu, the Gilbert W. Winslow Career Development Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and a member of the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS) and the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS).\nThe lead author of the study is Vindula Jayawardana, a graduate student in LIDS and the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. The research will be presented at the European Control Conference.\nWhile humans may drive past a green light without giving it much thought, intersections can present billions of different scenarios depending on the number of lanes, how the signals operate, the number of vehicles and their speeds, the presence of pedestrians and cyclists, etc.\nTypical approaches for tackling intersection control problems use mathematical models to solve one simple, ideal intersection. That looks good on paper, but likely won’t hold up in the real world, where traffic patterns are often about as messy as they come.\nWu and Jayawardana shifted gears and approached the problem using a model-free technique known as deep reinforcement learning. Reinforcement learning is a trial-and-error method where the control algorithm learns to make a sequence of decisions. It is rewarded when it finds a good sequence. With deep reinforcement learning, the algorithm leverages assumptions learned by a neural network to find shortcuts to good sequences, even if there are billions of possibilities.\nThis is useful for solving a long-horizon problem like this; the control algorithm must issue upwards of 500 acceleration instructions to a vehicle over an extended time period, Wu explains.\n“And we have to get the sequence right before we know that we have done a good job of mitigating emissions and getting to the intersection at a good speed,” she adds.\nBut there’s an additional wrinkle. The researchers want the system to learn a strategy that reduces fuel consumption and limits the impact on travel time. These goals can be conflicting.\n“To reduce travel time, we want the car to go fast, but to reduce emissions, we want the car to slow down or not move at all. Those competing rewards can be very confusing to the learning agent,” Wu says.\nWhile it is challenging to solve this problem in its full generality, the researchers employed a workaround using a technique known as reward shaping. With reward shaping, they give the system some domain knowledge it is unable to learn on its own. In this case, they penalized the system whenever the vehicle came to a complete stop, so it would learn to avoid that action.\nOnce they developed an effective control algorithm, they evaluated it using a traffic simulation platform with a single intersection. The control algorithm is applied to a fleet of connected autonomous vehicles, which can communicate with upcoming traffic lights to receive signal phase and timing information and observe their immediate surroundings. The control algorithm tells each vehicle how to accelerate and decelerate.\nTheir system didn’t create any stop-and-go traffic as vehicles approached the intersection. (Stop-and-go traffic occurs when cars are forced to come to a complete stop due to stopped traffic ahead). In simulations, more cars made it through in a single green phase, which outperformed a model that simulates human drivers. When compared to other optimization methods also designed to avoid stop-and-go traffic, their technique resulted in larger fuel consumption and emissions reductions. If every vehicle on the road is autonomous, their control system can reduce fuel consumption by 18 percent and carbon dioxide emissions by 25 percent, while boosting travel speeds by 20 percent.\n“A single intervention having 20 to 25 percent reduction in fuel or emissions is really incredible. But what I find interesting, and was really hoping to see, is this non-linear scaling. If we only control 25 percent of vehicles, that gives us 50 percent of the benefits in terms of fuel and emissions reduction. That means we don’t have to wait until we get to 100 percent autonomous vehicles to get benefits from this approach,” she says.\nDown the road, the researchers want to study interaction effects between multiple intersections. They also plan to explore how different intersection set-ups (number of lanes, signals, timings, etc.) can influence travel time, emissions, and fuel consumption. In addition, they intend to study how their control system could impact safety when autonomous vehicles and human drivers share the road. For instance, even though autonomous vehicles may drive differently than human drivers, slower roadways and roadways with more consistent speeds could improve safety, Wu says.\nWhile this work is still in its early stages, Wu sees this approach as one that could be more feasibly implemented in the near-term.\n“The aim in this work is to move the needle in sustainable mobility. We want to dream, as well, but these systems are big monsters of inertia. Identifying points of intervention that are small changes to the system but have significant impact is something that gets me up in the morning,” she says.\nThis work was supported, in part, by the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://europeaninstitute.org/index.php/ei-blog/58-may-2009", "date": "2017-04-30T11:01:27Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917125074.20/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031205-00630-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.968708872795105, "token_count": 148, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-17", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-17__0__289844865", "lang": "en", "text": "The impact on Europe of the “Big 3” U.S. automakers remains unclear.

In this project, we are collaborating with Advertising Nagata, who will be in charge of gathering advertisements and generating ad revenues, which will be used to cover the installation, running and maintenance costs.\nSince our establishment in 2018, we have installed numerous EV chargers in condominiums around the Tokyo metropolitan region, while providing EV users with a free mobile app that allows users to make bookings and payment, as well as a management system for the management companies. Being a pioneer in the EV charging field in Japan, Yourstand is forging forward with new experiments to build up the EV charging infrastructure in Japan, as the world prepares for its transition to become carbon-free.\nAs part of our new challenge, Yourstand has installed an ad-financed EV charger at Tsurumi ward office in Yokohama. This project aims to contribute to enhancing the EV charging infrastructure in Yokohama, as the city aspires to become carbon-free with its “Zero Carbon Yokohama” mission in accordance to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in particular Goal 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and Goal 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure).\nIn this project, with the cooperation of Advertising Nagata, Yourstand has replaced a broken EV charger at Tsurumi ward office in Yokohama city. This newly replaced EV charger will be financed by advertising revenue, which will cover the replacement costs, as well as maintenance and other running costs. As this new business model runs on ads, it helps to reduce costs for Yokohama city to replace its EV chargers, electricity bills and other costs, and therefore allowing the city to provide free public EV charging to residents of the city.\nAnother noteworthy feature of this new EV charger is in its usage of image recognition and artificial intelligence (AI) to control the charger. The EV charger is turned on upon a two-step authentication- first, recognition of a car and second, the insertion of the charging plug. The EV charger will then automatically stop after an hour, as stipulated by the rules of usage set by the ward office. By digitizing EV charging trends and power output, we will be able to visualize EV charging patterns and utilize these data to expand and improve EV charging services.\nDeveloping on this business model with EV chargers with digital signage, Yourstand plans to install ad-financed EV chargers in commercial and public facilities, while providing EV users with free public charging, and ultimately realizing a carbon-free society.\nDetails of EV Charger and Facility\nInstallation site: Visitor Carpark at Tsurumi Ward Office\nAddress: 3-20-1, Tsurumi Chuo, Tsurumi ward, Yokohama city\nEV Charger Model: Hirakawa Hewtech HCCID-K01HW\nLength of cable: 7.5m\nMax time allowed for charging: 1 hour\nFee: Free of charge\nOpening hours: In accordance to opening hours of Tsurumi ward office\nCompany Name: Yourstand Inc.\nCEO: Nobuyuki Ura\nAddress: 3F, 2-24-2 Sumiyoshi-cho, Naka ward, Yokohama city\nMain Business: Installation of EV Chargers and Development of EV Charging Technologies\nPhone number: +81-(0)45-225-9755\nEmail: ys-sales(at)yourstand-ev.com (Change at to @)", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.99sme.sg/lifestyle/motors-and-vehicles/lublicant/", "date": "2020-02-22T13:00:39Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-10/segments/1581875145676.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20200222115524-20200222145524-00051.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.7751997113227844, "token_count": 166, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2020-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2020-10__0__6144394", "lang": "en", "text": "Maxii Nano Lubricant is a secret formula for car enthusiasts,environment conscious and cost conscious car owner.\na) Maxii Engine Nano is 100% petroleum & free of solid particles that cause harmful build-up.\nb) Maxii Engine Nano is compatible with all motor oils.\nc) Reduction in noise level & lower operating temperature.Improve engine compression.\nd) An excellent dispersion which dissolves any existing deposit build-up and sludge.\ne) Ensure clean & smooth engine operation\nf) Maxii Engine Nano contributes to much longer engine life & fuel economy & reduction in direct expenses and maintenance cost.\ng) Eliminates up to 95% of engine wear.\nh)Neutralizes & displaces moisture.\ni) Protects engine when oil or coolant loss.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.norville.co.uk/acatalog/racing-green.html", "date": "2020-02-20T05:58:26Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-10/segments/1581875144637.88/warc/CC-MAIN-20200220035657-20200220065657-00107.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9394192099571228, "token_count": 135, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2020-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2020-10__0__123744940", "lang": "en", "text": "Racing Green was founded in 1990, a brand built on the best of British heritage.

U.S. Honda Pilot model is shown for illustrative purposes only.\nA hybrid vehicle is an automobile powered by an engine assisted by an electric motor.\nIn a Hybrid vehicle, the electric motor assists the engine to help reduce fuel consumption in standing starts and accelerations. This means that compared to a regular car of the same size, a hybrid is cheaper to run.\nFurthermore, electric motors deliver maximum torque from zero rpm for powerful, exhilarating standing starts and added power for acceleration.\nCombining fuel efficiency, and driving performance with environmental performance through reduced fuel consumption and reduced CO2 emissions: that is what hybrid vehicles are all about.\nToday, there are three different types of hybrid vehicles:\nThe engine serves as the main power source. The motor, which delivers maximum torque from zero rpm, is called upon to assist the engine during standing starts and during acceleration, when engine fuel consumption is high. This type of hybrid is also simple: a parallel hybrid can be created simply by adding an electric motor and batteries to an existing vehicle.\nThe electric motor powers the vehicle from a standing start and at low speeds. As speed increases, engine and electric motor work in combination to efficiently provide the power required.\nThe system is more complex, featuring a power split device and a generator. The engine is also required to power the generator.\nThe vehicle runs on power from the electric motor. The engine only powers the generator that charges the batteries.\nThe system powering the vehicle is the same as that of an electric vehicle, but because the vehicle also has an engine, it is considered a hybrid.\nA variety of hybrid systems are in use in automobiles today. Honda’s lightweight and simple design features a parallel system in which the motor assists the engine as required.\nSince in a parallel system the engine serves as the main power source, Honda has further refined the engine, developing a new i-VTEC engine around the core of its original valve-control technology. In addition to achieving both powerful torque and high fuel economy, the new engine optimizes efficiency with such innovations as deactivating all cylinders during deceleration for improved regenerative braking. This results in outstanding environmental performance combined with impressive acceleration.\nIn a conventional car there is a flywheel between the engine and the transmission, serving to smooth out fluctuations in engine torque for smooth engine operation. The electric motor in the Honda Hybrid System is slim and compact enough to fit into the space usually taken up by the flywheel. And the rotor in the electric motor serves as the flywheel. This is why the Honda Hybrid System fits in to existing vehicles as is. Honda is hard at work on further hybrid technology development to make hybrid cars even more a part of our lives.\nEngines have a speed range in which they are most efficient. CVT keeps the engine running within this range, improving fuel economy.\nAutomatic transmissions that use gears need to switch between gear positions, while CVT does not. Since power from the engine is continuously fed to the tires, the ride is smoother.\nWith CVT, diameters of the areas where the two pulleys meet the belt can be infinitely varied (Figure 1). Each pulley consists of two conical plates facing each other, which by moving closer or further apart, changes the diameter of the area meeting the belt (Figure 2).\nThe belt consists of metallic rings and segments, and is flexible and durable (Figure 3).\nWith Honda’s CVT, when the car determines it is driving in a sporty manner, such as on a winding mountain road, it automatically maintains a higher engine speed - a Honda-unique feature.\nThis allows a sporty and smooth ride with deceleration that efficiently uses engine braking, stable cornering by maintaining driving power and powerful acceleration at the engine’s most powerful speed range.\nClass-leading power and fuel efficiency High performance and low fuel consumption in a single engine\ni-VTEC regulates the opening of air-fuel intake valves and exhaust valves in accordance with engine speeds\nBy regulating valve opening to match engine speed, the agile i-VTEC engine adjusts its characteristics to realize both superior power and low fuel consumption.\nWith i-VTEC engine technology, Honda is working to ensure environmental responsibility while delivering driving pleasure.\nThe crash-compatibility body takes collision safety to a new level, protecting not just its own occupants but the occupants of the other vehicle as well, regardless of whether the vehicles involved in a collision are large or small.\nRespect for the individual is one of Honda’s basic principles, and it is thoroughly applied in our approach to safety. That’s why we are committed to the ongoing development of the crash-compatibility body, one of our original G-Force Control Technologies designed to control the impact energy (‘g-force’) of a collision and reduce injuries.\nOur own independent analyses revealed the importance of crash-compatibility bodies in increasing safety for all motorists at an early stage. Even before the establishment of relevant regulations, we had already applied our own technologies to develop safer automobile bodies.\nOur own studies of collisions point to three factors affecting the safety of occupants in both vehicles in a collision, and the measures required to enhance safety.\nBased on our own research, Honda has moved beyond the conventional body structure in which the force of a collision is concentrated in and absorbed by only two main frame members. We have developed a crash-compatibility body that uses multiple frame components to form an impact-absorbing surface that:\nHonda was the world’s first automaker to establish an indoor omni-directional Crash Test Safety Facility for conducting research in real-world collision safety. It was our passion for safety that led us to establish this facility, a vital component of our advanced accident analysis and research initiatives, and a major step toward the development of the crash-compatibility body.\nLet’s take a closer look at how the crash-compatibility body helps to:", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.centralfloridafuture.com/story/news/2014/09/18/casselberry-electric-car-show/15834335/", "date": "2019-09-15T13:56:09Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-39/segments/1568514571506.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20190915134729-20190915160729-00451.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9531229138374329, "token_count": 309, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-39", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-39__0__198246576", "lang": "en", "text": "Casselberry to host Orlando's largest electric car show\nThe city of Casselberry will host the largest Metro-Orlando Electric Auto Showcase ever on Saturday as it celebrates the third annual National Drive Electric Day.\nThe free event will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with more than 100 electric and hybrid cars on display at Lake Concord Park.

F1 would never be the same without him as he holds virtually every record of the ultimate in motor racing i.e. Formula 1 including most wins 91, most championships 7, most career poles 68, most wins in a season 13, most consecutive wins 7, most podium finishes 155, most podium finishes in a season 17 (that is in every single race), most fastest laps 77.\nI along with millions of his ardent fans across the world have followed his career very closely since his debut in late 1991. My interest in Formula 1 and car racing was triggered primarily by Schumi’s explosive arrival on the scene. Such has been his influence on Formula 1 that he was recently included in the world’s top 10 Influential Sportsmen, boasting the likes of Michael Jordan, Muhammad Ali, Imran Khan, Tiger Woods, Usain Bolt and Jahangir Khan amongst others.\nF1’s mass appeal across the globe owes a lot to the high stature and charisma of Schumacher through which he inspired many from our generation to follow and actively participate in motor racing at some level. Quite a few races were scheduled in Asia including Malaysia, Korea, India, Abu Dhabi, Singapore over the past couple of decades primarily due to the popularity enjoyed by Michael at Ferrari.\nWithin a couple of years of joining F1, Schumi was destined to be a dominant figure in the sport. The revealation came in 1994, when despite having an inferior car as compared to the Williams of Racing legend Ayrton Senna, he was able to win the first couple of races and was leading the third when Senna died in a tragic crash while chasing Michael. Senna’s untimely death left a huge vacuum in F1 as he was at the time the most celebrated and naturally gifted driver on the grid. Although Senna’s tragic demise meant the sport was denied an opportunity to witness a massive rivalry between two of the greatest drivers of all time i.e. Schumi and Senna, it hardly took Schumacher much time to announce his arrival in F1 as an emerging legend.\nHaving won, two World Championships with Benetton in 1994-95 and given his sheer dominance, he would have quite easily won the title the next couple of years. However, at the end of the season he made the difficult and for some rather surprising choice of signing up for Ferrari. Given that Ferrari hadn’t won a World Championship since 1979 and was labeled a below average car given its performance it was a monumental challenge to try and reverse its fortunes.\nWhat followed his arrival at Ferrari was a level of dominance that F1 or for that matter any sport had hardly ever seen. Not only was he the world’s highest paid driver but he was also the highest paid sportsman for a few years. Such was his success story at Ferrari that he won five consecutive world titles and owned virtually every record that existed in F1. FIA the world’s governing body had to introduce changes to the sport to somehow stop or slow down his juggernaut, but all in vain.\nOne of Michael Schumacher’s biggest talents was the sustained ability to drive the car to the very limit and beyond in crucial moments of the race. Driving in the wet is another hallmark of a racing legend and Schumacher was nicknamed the “rain king” or “rain master” for his incredible prowess in wet conditions as he managed to win 17 out of 36 wet races he competed in.\nLooking back at his career, most people have no doubts whatsoever that he is the greatest racing driver of all time. For me personally and millions across the world he was much more than a sporting icon, his imperious driving style, natural talent and sheer moments of brilliance over the past two decades shall sorely be missed. He took racing to a level nobody ever can and his mercurial driving ability and genius on the track will always remain unmatched.\nAsked how he would like to be remembered, he said: “I’m just a racer, that’s what I am….I’m racing till nothing works, nothing goes, full commitment… I go to the edge, I go to the limit and beyond and that’s my life.”\nFor me this epitomizes what Schumi is all about, he might have been mired in controversy occasionally and crossed the line a few times in his career. But being a passionate racing fan and driver, I can understand the adrenaline rush one feels while pushing the car over the edge.\nHe stands apart from the rest for his relentless pursuit of winning at all costs and extracting the optimum out of a machine which might have resulted in some regretful moments on the track.\nA big thanks to the greatest driver who gave the wonderful memories and sheer moments of brilliance on the track to cherish. F1 will never be the same without him.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.colmbranigan.com/driving-lessons-swords/", "date": "2020-03-28T23:40:23Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-16/segments/1585370493121.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20200328225036-20200329015036-00321.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9478257298469543, "token_count": 734, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2020-16", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2020-16__0__199659241", "lang": "en", "text": "What Is Driver Coaching?\nDriver Coaching helps you achieve success.

Iceland's rugged landscapes, characterized by volcanoes, glaciers, mountains, and vast uninhabited regions, have necessitated the development of robust and capable vehicles to traverse these demanding environments. This has led to the rise of modified 4x4 trucks, which have become an integral part of Icelandic culture and exploration.\nThe origins of modified 4x4 trucks in Iceland can be traced back to the mid-20th century when the first off-road vehicles began to arrive on the island. Initially, these vehicles were imported for military purposes and were used by the Icelandic Coast Guard and the NATO forces stationed in the country during the Cold War era. The military-grade trucks were known for their durability, off-road capabilities, and ability to navigate through harsh terrains.\nAs the military vehicles started to make their way into civilian hands, Icelandic enthusiasts began modifying them to meet their specific needs. These modifications included enhancements such as raised suspensions, reinforced frames, larger tires with aggressive tread patterns, and upgraded drivetrain components. These modifications allowed the vehicles to conquer the challenging Icelandic landscapes with greater ease.\nOne significant event that played a crucial role in the development and popularity of modified 4x4 trucks in Iceland was the establishment of the \"Icelandic Formula Off-Road Championship\" in 1969. This motorsport event showcased the capabilities of these modified trucks and attracted a growing number of participants and spectators over the years. The competition involved tackling various obstacles, including steep inclines, deep mud, and water crossings, pushing both drivers and vehicles to their limits.\nOver time, the modified 4x4 trucks became more sophisticated and specialized, catering to different off-road disciplines. Icelandic enthusiasts continued to experiment and innovate, pushing the boundaries of what these vehicles could achieve. The trucks underwent further modifications, including the addition of roll cages, winches, snorkels, and differential locks, among other upgrades, to enhance their off-road performance.\nThe modified 4x4 trucks in Iceland also became popular for recreational purposes, allowing Icelanders to explore the country's remote and awe-inspiring landscapes. The vehicles provided a means for locals to access areas that would otherwise be inaccessible, enabling them to experience the breathtaking natural beauty of their country.\nThe popularity of modified 4x4 trucks in Iceland has not waned over the years. Today, Iceland hosts numerous off-road events and competitions, attracting both local and international participants. The modified trucks continue to evolve, with advancements in technology and engineering being incorporated into their design. Icelanders take pride in their modified 4x4 trucks, seeing them as a symbol of their resilience, resourcefulness, and love for adventure in the face of Iceland's challenging terrain.\nIn conclusion, the history of modified 4x4 trucks in Iceland is a testament to the country's unique landscape and the determination of its people to conquer the rugged terrains. These vehicles have become an essential part of Icelandic culture, providing a means for exploration, recreation, and showcasing the country's off-road prowess through motorsport competitions. The evolution and popularity of modified 4x4 trucks in Iceland reflect the indomitable spirit of its people and their deep connection with their natural surroundings.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://travelsmartns.co.uk/how-to-travel-smart/carsharing/", "date": "2017-11-24T10:50:06Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-47/segments/1510934807650.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20171124104142-20171124124142-00193.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9449125528335571, "token_count": 274, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-47", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-47__0__128119484", "lang": "en", "text": "Car Share in Stoke-on-Trent\nThe smart way to drive to work…\nDid you know that a 20 mile round trip five times a week could make a minimum annual saving of £1,159 and 1.3 tonnes of C02?

The benefits of choosing electric vehicles are becoming more and more obvious. They’re quieter, they’re better for the environment, they’re less expensive to operate and they’re more fun to drive. Here are just a few reasons why you should consider buying an electric vehicle:\nLower cost of operation: Electric vehicles use significantly less energy than traditional cars, which means that they cost less money to operate over time. Electric vehicles have no oil changes or tune-ups, which can save you hundreds of dollars every year compared to traditional cars. And there’s no need for special tools or equipment when diagnosing problems with your EV — just plug it in and see what happens!\nQuieter ride: Electric motors have very little noise when compared with traditional internal combustion engines (ICE). You’ll never have to worry about waking up your neighbors at 2 AM again! And if you have children who like to play in the street after dark? No problem! Your EV will run without making any noise at all!\nThe most obvious benefit is that electric vehicles don’t produce any exhaust gases. This means that they’re extremely environmentally friendly and contribute nothing to the problem of global warming.\nLower Maintenance Costs\nSince an electric vehicle doesn’t use oil, there aren’t any oil changes or other scheduled maintenance costs involved with owning one. There are also no spark plugs to replace or tune-ups required for your engine. This means that you can save thousands of dollars in maintenance costs over the life of your vehicle compared to a traditional gas-powered car.\nEasier to Maintain\nWhile it may seem like an electric vehicle requires more maintenance than a traditional car because it doesn’t have an engine, this isn’t actually true at all. The fact is that there are fewer moving parts on an EV and less risk of wear and tear since there are no gears or transmissions to worry about breaking down over time like there would be with a traditional car.\nElectric vehicles are more energy efficient than gasoline-powered vehicles, which means they produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions. This benefit is even greater if the electricity used to charge the vehicle is from a renewable energy source like solar or wind.\nConvenience and range\nSome EVs have a range of hundreds of miles on a single charge, which makes them ideal for long trips and road trips. You don’t have to stop at gas stations anymore because you can fill up your tank at home! Plus, charging at home is easy — just plug in when you park your car at night and wake up ready to go in the morning.

Throughout 2010 I have been given the chance to test out five different GM vehicles. Four of which were Chevrolets and one I actually bought. The past week I’ve been enjoying cruising around town in GMC’s Acadia Denali. It has made me truly miss driving an SUV. The Acadia is the first SUV I’ve driven since purchasing my 2010 Chevy Malibu in September.\nFirst I must mention how excited I was over the Head Up Display. I have never seen this before and I swear I think it’s one of the neatest vehicle inventions created. I’m sure the HUD will receive mixed reviews because some people will find it distracting no matter how small and subtle it is. There are three modes for the HUD to determine what you see on the windshield. All the modes display your speed and when the song changes via XM radio the song title is displayed for a few seconds at the bottom. The options that vary between modes are: tachometer, navigation and outside temperature. I love the HUD and find it useful to keep my eyes on the road instead of always looking down to check my speed. You can also aim the display up or down to best meet your viewing needs which works great for taller drivers versus shorter ones, like me.\nI took the kids on a road-trip to San Antonio while they were out of school this week to visit the beautiful Christmas lights on the Riverwalk and Sea World. When we left Fort Worth there was five of us in the Acadia and we had plenty of room. The kids enjoyed watching a movie on the DVD player that is built in with the pull down screen. I absolutely loved the fact there was plenty of cup holders, that’s one thing I miss in my Malibu and something that is important to have on a road-trip. On the way home from San Antonio I gave my niece and nephew a ride home from their grandma’s house which brought the total number of passengers up to seven. Although there was still plenty of seats and room for all seven of us, I thought it was great that we could move the second row seats up. Adjusting the seats was super simple and gave everyone plenty of leg room. Another great feature that was perfect and used on our road-trip was the extra outlets available in the Acadia. Between all the kids and their portable electronics as well as my mobile phone, we were constantly charging multiple gadgets. There was a total of four outlets with one being a 110 volt.\nOne of my good friends owns a GMC Yukon that I ride in regularly and I noticed a few differences between their vehicle and the Acadia Denali. For starters I was a little surprised that the Acadia does not have auto windshield wipers yet the Yukon does. However the Acadia has both heated and cooling seats yet the Yukon only has heated seats. Which by the way both the remote start and the heated seats were very useful over Christmas to warm us up faster.\nHands down the Acadia Denali is my favorite SUV to test drive this year. I also love the look of it. In an SUV I prefer the more distinct lines rather than the rounded body style.\nFull Disclosure: General Motors gave me the Acadia Denali to test drive for a week.

However, if you have adequate insurance on your own car–including collision and comprehensive coverage–it is probably not necessary to purchase insurance from a rental car company.\nTo be on the safe side, contact your insurance company before you rent a car. In most cases, the coverage and deductibles you have on your personal auto insurance policy would apply to a rental car, providing the rental is used for pleasure and not business.\nYou should also check with your credit card company, as most cards offer insurance for car rentals. Levels of coverage vary, so contact your card’s customer service department to verify exactly what they provide.\nIf you don’t have auto insurance, you have two choices: you can either buy coverage at the car rental counter, or you can purchase a non-owner auto liability insurance policy.\nRental car counter insurance\nRental car counter insurance can provide the following coverage:\n- Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)\nSometimes called a Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), this coverage relieves you of financial responsibility if your rental car is damaged or stolen. The CDW may be void, however, if you cause an accident by speeding, driving on unpaved roads or driving while intoxicated. This coverage generally costs between $9 and $19 a day. If you have comprehensive and collision coverage on your own car, you may not need to purchase this additional coverage.\n- Liability Insurance\nThis provides excess liability coverage of up to $1 million for the time you rent a car. Rental companies are required by law to provide the minimum level of liability insurance required by your state. Generally, this does not offer enough protection in a serious accident. If you have adequate liability coverage on your car or an umbrella policy on your home/auto, you may consider forgoing this additional insurance. It generally costs about $9 to $14 a day. If you don’t own a car and rent cars often, consider purchasing a non-owner liability policy.\n- Personal Accident Insurance\nThis provides coverage to you and your passengers for medical/ambulance bills. This type of insurance usually costs about $1 to $5 per day, but might be unnecessary if you are covered by health insurance or have adequate medical coverage under your auto policy.\n- Personal Effects Coverage\nThis provides coverage for the theft of personal items in your car. However, if you have homeowners or renters insurance, you might be covered for items stolen from the car, minus your deductible. You need to have receipts or other proof of ownership. This type of insurance usually costs about $1 to $4 per day.Some rental car companies combine personal accident and personal effects coverage together as one type of insurance, while others sell it individually.The cost of insurance at the rental car counter will vary depending on the rental car company, state and location of the dealer and the type of car you rent.\nSome rental car companies may check your credit and driving history. Depending on the results, they may deny you coverage. Check with the rental car company to find out its policy.\nNon-owned auto liability insurance\nInstead of buying liability coverage from the car rental company each time you rent a car, you can purchase a non-owner auto liability insurance policy from an insurance company for about $300 a year which might be cheaper if you rent frequently.\nA non-owned auto insurance policy covers you for damage you may cause to another car as well as liability for injuries to its occupants, or to pedestrians, in the event of an accident. The policy will also provide medical payment coverage for you and your passengers, as well as under-insured and uninsured coverage. The latter coverage pays for the cost of an accident involving a hit-and-run driver or a driver who has little or no insurance.\nHowever, non-owned auto insurance does not provide collision coverage. Collision coverage pays for damage to the car you’re driving if you crash into another car or object or the car rolls over. You have to buy this from the car rental company. However, some credit cards provide collision coverage if the rental car is paid for with the card—so check with your credit card company first.\nNote: If you’re renting a car abroad, you may need an international driver’s license.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.balitouroperators.com/bali-buggy.html", "date": "2021-01-17T09:12:52Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-04/segments/1610703511903.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20210117081748-20210117111748-00571.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9473370909690857, "token_count": 505, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2021-04", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2021-04__0__193983002", "lang": "en", "text": "Bali Buggy is an attractive adventure activities where you can drive a buggy car exploring traditional village in Bali.

Whether you’re planning a road trip through breathtaking landscapes or exploring the hidden gems of a vibrant city, choosing the right car rental can greatly enhance your experience. On no.getaround.com you will explore the factors to consider when selecting a car rental for your adventure, the types of rental cars suitable for different kinds of adventures, common mistakes to avoid when renting a car, practical tips for a smooth car rental experience, and the necessary paperwork and insurance for car rentals. So let’s dive in and make sure you choose the perfect wheels for your next adventure!\nFactors to Consider When Choosing a Car Rental for Your Adventure\nBudget Considerations for Car Rentals\nOne of the most important factors to consider when choosing a car rental for your adventure is your budget. It’s essential to determine how much you’re willing to spend on your rental car to avoid overspending or compromising on quality. Keep in mind that prices can vary depending on the location, duration of the rental, and the type of car you choose. Research different car rental companies to find the best prices and be aware of any additional fees that may be charged, such as airport pickup fees or insurance costs.\n- Compare prices from different rental companies to find the best deal\n- Consider renting from smaller, local companies for potentially lower prices\n- Look for promotions or discounts that may be available\n- Be aware of any additional fees that may be charged\nAssessing the Type of Terrain for Your Adventure\nAnother important factor to consider when choosing a car rental for your adventure is the type of terrain you’ll be encountering. If you’re planning a trip to the mountains or off-road destinations, you’ll need a car that can handle rugged terrain and provide sufficient traction. On the other hand, if you’re exploring a city or going on a seaside vacation, a compact or mid-sized car may be more suitable. Consider the specific needs of your adventure and choose a car that can comfortably handle the terrain you’ll be traversing.\n- Consider the type of terrain you’ll be encountering\n- Choose a car with sufficient traction for off-road adventures\n- Opt for a compact or mid-sized car for city exploration\nSelecting the Car Size and Type Based on Group Size\nThe size of your travel group is another vital consideration when choosing a car rental for your adventure. If you’re traveling alone or with a small group, a compact or economy car may be sufficient. However, if you’re traveling with a larger group or have a lot of luggage, you may need a larger car, such as a minivan or SUV, to accommodate everyone comfortably. Ensure that the car you choose has enough seating capacity and ample storage space for a smooth and enjoyable journey.\n- Consider the size of your travel group\n- Choose a car with sufficient seating capacity\n- Ensure the car has ample storage space for luggage\nEvaluating Rental Company’s Terms and Conditions\nBefore finalizing your car rental, it’s crucial to carefully evaluate the rental company’s terms and conditions. Pay close attention to factors such as the minimum age requirement, driver’s license and credit card requirements, mileage restrictions, and any additional charges or penalties. Familiarize yourself with the rental company’s cancellation policy and insurance options to make an informed decision. By understanding the terms and conditions, you can avoid any surprises or misunderstandings during your adventure.\n- Read and understand the rental company’s terms and conditions\n- Take note of the minimum age requirement and driver’s license requirements\n- Check for mileage restrictions and any additional charges or penalties\n- Review the cancellation policy and insurance options\nTypes of Rental Cars Suitable for Different kinds of Adventures\nNo matter the type of adventure you have in mind, there is a wide range of rental cars available to suit your needs. From compact cars for city exploration to spacious SUVs for outdoor adventures, rental car companies offer a variety of options. If you’re planning a seaside vacation, a convertible car can add an extra touch of excitement and allow you to enjoy the coastal breeze. For those seeking luxury and comfort, there are also exotic car rentals available. Consider the specific requirements of your adventure and choose a rental car that aligns with your preferences and enhances your overall experience.\nWhen planning a seaside vacation, renting a car can greatly enhance your experience. Navigating through coastal towns, exploring hidden beaches, and enjoying scenic drives along the coast becomes much easier and more convenient with a rental car. You’ll have the flexibility to visit remote spots, venture off the beaten path, and soak in the beauty of the seaside at your own pace. Renting a car for your seaside vacation allows you to create your itinerary and discover the hidden gems that may not be accessible by public transportation. It’s a great way to make the most of your beach getaway and truly immerse yourself in the coastal beauty.\nAvoiding Common Mistakes When Renting a Car for an Adventure\nTiming Your Booking Right for Best Deals\nOne common mistake that travelers make when renting a car is not timing their booking correctly. Prices for rental cars can vary depending on the time of year, with peak seasons often being more expensive. To get the best deals, it’s advisable to book your rental car in advance and avoid last-minute bookings, as this can lead to limited availability and higher prices. Additionally, consider picking up and returning the car at non-airport locations, as airport rentals tend to be more expensive due to additional fees and surcharges.\nChecking for Any Hidden Costs\nWhen renting a car, it’s essential to thoroughly check for any hidden costs that may be associated with your rental. These can include additional fees for insurance, fuel, mileage, or late returns. Carefully review the rental agreement and ask the rental company about any charges that may not be explicitly mentioned. By being aware of these potential hidden costs, you can accurately budget for your rental and avoid any unexpected surprises.\nUnderstanding the Fuel Policy\nThe fuel policy is another aspect to consider when renting a car for an adventure. Rental companies typically offer three types of fuel policies: full-to-full, pre-purchase, and full-to-empty. The most common and recommended policy is the full-to-full, where you receive the car with a full tank of fuel and return it with a full tank. This ensures that you only pay for the fuel you use and avoid any additional fees or surcharges. It’s crucial to understand the fuel policy before renting to avoid any unnecessary expenses.\nTips on Car Inspection Before Rental\nPrior to taking possession of the rental car, it’s important to thoroughly inspect the vehicle for any existing damage or issues. Take note of any scratches, dents, or interior damages and inform the rental company to ensure that you aren’t held responsible for pre-existing conditions. It’s also advisable to take pictures or video of the car’s condition as evidence. By conducting a thorough inspection, you can avoid any disputes or unexpected charges upon returning the vehicle.\nInsurance and Other Necessary Paperwork for Car Rentals\nWhen renting a car, it’s crucial to have the necessary paperwork and insurance to protect yourself and the rental car. Most car rental companies offer insurance options that cover damage and theft. Carefully review the insurance policies and consider the level of coverage that best suits your needs. Additionally, ensure that you have all required documents, such as a valid driver’s license and a credit card for the security deposit. By having the necessary paperwork and insurance, you can have peace of mind during your adventure.\nExploring Unique Features of Luxury and Exotic Car Rentals\nIf you’re looking to add a touch of elegance and luxury to your adventure, consider renting a luxury or exotic car. These rentals offer a unique and thrilling experience, allowing you to indulge in the finer things in life. From sleek sports cars to elegant sedans, luxury and exotic car rentals are perfect for special occasions, celebrations, or simply treating yourself. However, it’s important to note that these rentals may come with higher price tags and specific requirements, so be sure to review the terms and conditions before making a reservation.\nChoosing the ideal car rental for your adventure is a crucial step in ensuring a memorable and enjoyable experience. By considering factors such as budget, terrain, group size, and rental terms, you can make an informed decision that meets your needs and enhances your adventure. Remember to avoid common mistakes, be aware of hidden costs, and thoroughly inspect the rental car before taking possession. With the right car rental and proper paperwork, you’ll be ready to hit the road and create incredible memories that will last a lifetime.\nJourneying through europe’s most charming villages", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://renownscribbles.org/save-your-childs-life-by-properly-installing-their-car-seat/", "date": "2013-12-13T12:32:41Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-48/segments/1386164941522/warc/CC-MAIN-20131204134901-00085-ip-10-33-133-15.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9427334666252136, "token_count": 297, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2013-48", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2013-48__0__71834383", "lang": "en", "text": "Many parents know the importance of strapping children into a car seat every time they get into the car.

Once again we have a video of the boys and girls down in Texas taking a perfectly good 2018 Lincoln Navigator and giving it the business thanks to their HPE600 upgrade.\nWhen the Navigator was born, it was given a 3.5-L twin-turbo engine (same as on the F-150 Raptor) that put out 450 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque.

That's the major change to the much-loved i20, including a new 1l turbo engine. The all-new i20 Motion and Fluid is the third generation of Hyundai's B-segment model which was first launched in 2009 in South Africa.\nAs one of the company’s most successful models, the i20 stands for quality, reliability and practicality. An important part of the appeal of the all-new i20 is its excellent ride quality and the confident way it handles with a suspension that is sporty and firm, yet comfortable.\n“We launched the all-new i20 with the confidence that a five-door hatchback has a definite slot in the local car market – the sales figures and customer’s preferences give credence to our faith in the product. It is also a strong contender in the market for rental cars,” says Stanley Anderson, sales and operations director of Hyundai Automotive South Africa.\nTwo new engines\nThe new i20 range, driven through the front wheels, features a new engine: A turbocharged three-cylinder petrol power plant that has proven itself in other local Hyundai models, and now propels the i20 with a maximum power output of 90kW. It is linked to either a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) or a six-speed manual transmission.\nTwo naturally aspirated petrol engines – the 1.2 Kappa petrol engine, linked to a five-speed manual gearbox, and the 1.4 MPi, matched to a six-speed automatic transmission – are used in the other variants in the i20 range.\nCompared to its predecessor, the all-new i20’s proportions have been made more dynamic, while at the same time ensuring it is practical for navigating around busy urban areas. Its visual stance is improved by a wider body and increased length.\nThe all-new i20’s stylish character is emphasised with its dynamic-looking front and rear bumpers, as well as its new radiator grille. The side-view offers energetic proportions and a wedge style, which are amplified through a bold side character line.\nWith a range of interior enhancements, customers can enjoy quality time inside their new i20. Hyundai’s designers sought innovative aesthetic and technical solutions to convey its stylish proportions while creating a fresh and appealing look. The aerodynamic profile of the all-new i20 helps in improving fuel economy and driving stability.\nThe interior space achieves an airy feeling inside the cockpit. One design highlight is the horizontal blades that cover the high and prominent dashboard. This gives it a very unconventional look by making the front fascia look slick and wide. Occupants of the all-new i20 Fluid variants can also enjoy pleasant subtle interior lighting at night thanks to new blue LED ambient light technology.\nThe all-new i20 offers connectivity with a range of high-tech convenience features and premium sound quality. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, now offered with a wireless link, enable customers to mirror the functionality of their iOS and Android smartphones. To increase the elegance and the visual comfort of the interior, the new 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster in front of the driver and high-resolution eight-inch centre touchscreen for the infotainment system have been visually combined.\nA wireless charging pad in the centre console means occupants no longer need to use a cable to charge their smartphones. Additionally, there are two front USB charging ports in all variants – one for connectivity and one for charging in the middle console, while another charging port is available for rear passengers in the Fluid variants.\nRide and handling\nAt the front McPherson struts with dampers and coil springs are used for the suspension, while a coupled torsion beam axle with dampers and coil springs are employed at the rear. The Motor-Driven Power Assisted Steering (MDPS) delivers accurate lines through corners and adds stability to the i20’s road manners.\n- 1.2 Motion manual: R275,900\n- 1.4 Motion automatic: R305,900\n- 1.2 Fluid manual: R289,900\n- 1.2 Fluid manual – 2-Tone: R294,900\n- 1.0 TGDI Fluid manual: R330,900\n- 1.0 TGDI Fluid manual – 2-Tone: R335,900\n- 1.0 TGDI Fluid DCT: R355,900\n- 1.0 TGDI Fluid DCT – 2-Tone: R360,900\nThe all-new i20 has a /high residual value, thanks to its standard equipment offering, as well as its seven-year/200,000km manufacturer’s warranty. If the vehicle is sold, the warranty is passed on to the next owner, thereby maximising its resale value, and generating peace of mind for the full warranty period.

While you might be able to negotiate a lower purchase price on a new car, it is important to note that other fees will likely be applicable. Before you drive your newly purchased vehicle off the lot, contemplate what other expenses you may be responsible for so that you are able to get a real bargain.\nCalculating Total Vehicle Purchase Cost\nWhen you compare new cars you want to buy, it is easy to get stuck on the bells and whistles that come included with each vehicle. It usually isn’t until new car buyers sit down to sign the purchase agreement that they start to think about the amount they really will be paying.\nRemember that vehicle asking price is a variable number that likely can, and will, fluctuate. Keep your total vehicle purchase budget in mind and try to look for new cars that are priced lower than what you can afford.\nConsidering Insurance Coverage Fees\nNew cars and used cars must be insured before they can legally be driven, which is why dealers will ask for proof prior to handing over the keys. If you want to buy a new car, you will need comprehensive insurance, and you might even want to consider gap insurance as well. Comprehensive car insurance will protect you if you get into an accident, no matter who ends up being determined as being at-fault.\nNew cars depreciate considerably in value soon after they are purchased by their original owners. If your car were to be stolen or totaled in an auto accident, the amount of money paid out by your insurance provider would be much lower than the car’s purchase value. To help offset this, many new car purchasers are urged to look into obtaining gap car insurance.\nAdditional Fees Associated With Buying A New Car\nNew cars have to be registered and titled in the state that the buyer resides in, and sales taxes will also certainly apply. Sometimes these fees are included in the purchase agreement, so make sure that you look over your paperwork thoroughly before you sign your name.\nYou may be able to get your car dealer to pay all title and registration fees in place of, or in addition to lowering the purchasing price. Some dealers may charge loan origination fees, so getting outside financing may be another way for you to save on fees and get a better interest rate.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.dealerautoglass.net/", "date": "2024-04-20T07:20:24Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817491.77/warc/CC-MAIN-20240420060257-20240420090257-00223.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9300525188446045, "token_count": 1265, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__134991430", "lang": "en", "text": "Limited time only!\nStep into the world of unparalleled expertise with our family-owned business, a trusted name for over 35 years, where every repair and replacement is a masterpiece of precision and care.

The Invicto is yet another product after the partnership between Maruti and Toyota Kirloskar, which began in 2016 and was formalized in 2019. The alliance will establish and promote “long-term cooperation in new fields”, including electric vehicle technology and autonomous driving, as per a joint statement issued by the two companies.\nThe car is being offered in three variants – Zeta+ (7 seaters), Zeta+ (8 seaters), and Aplha+ (7 seaters).

The Invicto will also be available for subscription at ₹ 61,860 per month.\nIt will be available in four colors, including Nexa Blue and Mystic White.

The petrol engine is expected to generate 172bhp power and 188Nm of torque.\nAn e-CVT unit will be the sole transmission on offer.\nContinuing its good run, Maruti Suzuki’s Shashank Srivastava said last month that the company is expecting a growth of 24 percent in its SUV segment and aiming for a bigger market share pie. Speaking to BQ Prime, Maruti’s top brass said the new launches will aid volume growth for the company.\nIn June, the country’s top carmaker by volume Maruti Suzuki India’s overall domestic passenger vehicle sales rose 8.5 percent year-on-year to 133,027 units.\nAs per a Reuters report, the sale of the company’s utility vehicle sales more than doubled from a year ago.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.teqlease.com/teqlease-capital-works-with-mcdougall-capital-consulting-to-advise-on-tax-breaks-rebates-and-equipment-financing-for-electric-vehicle-charging-stations/", "date": "2023-09-27T07:42:32Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510284.49/warc/CC-MAIN-20230927071345-20230927101345-00749.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9298359155654907, "token_count": 433, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-40__0__215395807", "lang": "en", "text": "The ability to finance electric vehicle charging stations, combined with Federal and other tax credits, can make installing EV charging stations a no up front cost option.

Stephens AR Locksmith Store is a professional locksmith service that has been active in the local community for well over a decade. We have assisted local car owners with all kinds of lock-related requests over the years. We can repair car locks, rekey them, and replace them. We make car keys – including high security keys – quickly. We can also help with lockouts, if you’ve been locked out of your car or car trunk.\nTransponder keys made\nDuring the 1990s, it was easy for thieves to open vehicle doors and “hotwire” cars to steal them. Car manufacturers began experimenting with advanced security systems and today it’s become very difficult for thieves to steal cars. For example, many cars are fitted with transponder keys. Transponder keys – or smart keys, as they are popularly called – contain a computer programmed chip on them. This chip has to interact with the immobilizer in the car to get it to disengage. If the chip isn’t present on the key or if it doesn’t have the right code on it, the car won’t start. Our auto locksmith service can make you new transponder keys in a short span of time, at an affordable price.\nIgnition switch repair\nIs the ignition switch in your car giving you trouble? Our locksmiths can get stuck or broken ignition switches repaired. Our automotive locksmith service will replace the ignition switch entirely, if that proves necessary, at an affordable price.\nSpecialized auto locksmith team:\nOur auto locksmiths are all well trained professionals with years of experience behind them. Not everyone has the knowledge or the experience necessary to get around advanced security systems on cars. We can help you get inside any kind of locked vehicle that you’ve lost the keys too quickly.

Renting a car is the most convenient and enjoyable way to see Dubai since it allows you to go wherever you want. So many vehicles are available for rent, so finding the best one can be challenging. I'll review many solutions to accommodate various needs and tastes.\nBudget Rental Cars\nRenting a car in Dubai can be a practical and affordable alternative for those on a tighter budget. The budget car rental market norms are economical and fuel-efficient compacts and mid-size automobiles. They're perfect for budget-conscious travelers who want to see the sights without going into debt.\nIn Dubai, the Nissan Sunny is a common choice for those on a tight budget. This small automobile is ideal for those who want to get around the city on a budget, whether just starting or are a pair. Operating is economical and has standard amenities like air conditioning and electric windows.\nThe Toyota Yaris is another well-known alternative. Compared to the Nissan Sunny, this vehicle's interior is roomier, making it a good choice for small families or parties. High-tech features like a touchscreen and Bluetooth connection are available in rental cars starting at 100 AED/Day.\nLuxury Rental Cars\nRenting a luxury car is the best option for visitors who want to see Dubai in comfort and style. Driving in a high-end vehicle is a great way to get a feel for the lavish culture of Dubai. You may expect high-end amenities in a luxury rental car, like leather upholstery, top-shelf stereos, and other cutting-edge technology.\nThe Mercedes-Benz S-Class is a common choice when renting a luxury vehicle in Dubai. The Burmester surround sound system and the panoramic sunroof is just two of the high-tech amenities that make this vehicle the pinnacle of luxury. It's ideal for vacationing singles or couples who want to see the city elegantly.\nThe BMW 7 Series is another popular selection for those seeking a luxury rental vehicle. This vehicle is well-liked due to its cutting-edge attributes, such as its heads-up display and wireless charging capabilities. Those seeking comfort and speed will find it easier to find a better option than this.\nSUV Rental Cars\nRenting an SUV is the best option for individuals who want to experience the desert beauty of Dubai or who need to carry a large number of passengers. Nothing beats the off-road capability of an SUV for trips to the city's outskirts.\nThe Toyota Land Cruiser is a popular choice for rentable SUVs in Dubai. Because of its reputation for toughness, this vehicle is ideal for navigating the desert landscape of Dubai. It has cutting-edge features like a multi-terrain monitor and a crawl control system.\nThe Ford Expedition is a common choice when renting an SUV. Being slightly larger than the Toyota Land Cruiser, this vehicle is perfect for transporting large families or groups. It has high-tech features, including a Wi-Fi hotspot and a DVD player in the back.\nSports Car Rental Cars\nRenting a sports car is a great option for individuals seeking a thrilling experience. Given the city's reputation for high-end automobiles, one of the best ways to get a feel for Dubai is behind the wheel of a high-performance sports car. Most sports vehicles are compact and lightweight, with potent engines to match.\nThe Lamborghini Huracan is an extremely popular rental sports vehicle choice in Dubai. If you're looking for a stylish vehicle with a powerful engine, look no further. It has high-tech extras, including a navigation system and a rearview camera.\nConvertible Rental Cars\nRenting a convertible automobile is the best way to enjoy the city's pleasant climate and breathtaking scenery. Convertibles, typically compact, lightweight, and open-topped, are ideal for individuals who want to take in the city's stunning surroundings.\nA BMW 4 Series convertible is a top choice among renters in Dubai. The elegant exterior of this vehicle conceals high-tech features like a retractable hardtop and a heads-up display, making it a desirable option for many. It's a great place for solo travelers or couples to enjoy the city's gorgeous scenery and balmy temperatures.\nThe Porsche 911 is another great choice for a convertible rental car. This vehicle's responsive steering and potent engine make it a top choice for thrill seekers. It has high-tech features like a touch screen and an excellent sound system.\nWhen visiting Dubai, renting a car is convenient and enjoyable to see the sights and experience the city's high-class culture. It's easy to find a rental automobile that works with your schedule, price, and personal tastes among the numerous available today. It doesn't matter if you're in the market for a cheap automobile, a high-end ride, an SUV, a sports car, or a convertible; Dubai has it all. Make the most of your time in the city by driving around in a rental car that fits your demands and budget.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://memex.naughtons.org/hertzs-supercharged-tesla-deal-could-haul-us-into-the-electric-vehicle-age/34834/", "date": "2024-04-21T04:29:26Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817729.0/warc/CC-MAIN-20240421040323-20240421070323-00301.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9749985933303833, "token_count": 335, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__57069812", "lang": "en", "text": "This morning’s Observer column:\nOn Tuesday, Hertz, the car-rental firm that recently emerged from bankruptcy, announced that it had made a deal to buy 100,000 cars from Tesla for what knowledgeable sources estimate to be worth $4bn. On learning this, my first thought was that if this is what insolvency is like, please direct me to the nearest bankruptcy court. My second thought, though, was that this could be a significant moment on the road to wider adoption of electric vehicles (EVs).\nThe reason is, as anyone who has rented conventional cars will know, is that the best way of having a realistic test drive of a vehicle is to rent one for a week or two on holiday. As Teslas become available via Hertz, many more people will have a chance to experience what an EV is like. This is important because, generally, only geeks and masochists (like this columnist) are early adopters of novel technology and normal cautious consumers regard EVs as rather exotic and peculiar, not something you’d rely on for commuting or the school run.\nAnecdotal evidence suggests that a key factor in changing people’s minds about EVs is word of mouth: someone you know has taken the plunge and has given you a ride in theirs. This was the driving force behind the widespread adoption of the Toyota Prius hybrid in the last decade and it seems to be happening now with EVs, which may account for the fact the Tesla Model 3 was the biggest selling new car in the UK in September, despite the fact that the company spends zilch on overt marketing or advertising.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://glidecruisers.com/products/sr38-voyager", "date": "2018-01-21T23:54:54Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084890928.82/warc/CC-MAIN-20180121234728-20180122014728-00516.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9044907689094543, "token_count": 244, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2018-05", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2018-05__0__127224695", "lang": "en", "text": "The SR38 is our most prestigious model flush with all the bells and whistles.

In the US, truck drivers are generally restricted to a 14-hour workday and an 11-hour daily driving limit.\nIn 2013, in an effort to further curb truck driver fatigue and boost safety on American roads, the US Department of Transportation’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) announced new federal regulations concerning how truck drivers can “restart” their hours of service. Among other restrictions, the rules said that drivers who reached the maximum 70 hours of driving in a week had to rest for 34 consecutive hours before they could get back in the cab again. Those 34 hours had to include “at least two nights when their body clocks demand sleep the most – from 1am to 5am.”\nWith an increasing number of trucks hauling oil and other goods throughout the nation’s busy shale regions, this seemed like a positive move. Especially when you consider that crashes involving commercial vehicles in the Eagle Ford, for example, rose a whopping 470% in 2013.\nThe only problem is that traffic safety didn’t improve under the new law.\nInstead, the new rules forced truck drivers to operate more often during the most congested hours of the day. That meant they were battling for space during morning rush hours, when school buses and commuters flood the roads and when the incidence of accidents is already the highest.\n“The Department of Transportation hadn’t considered this impact,” Rob Abbott, vice president of safety policy, American Trucking Associations, told us in a recent interview.\nAnd just as the legislation didn’t improve safety, it also did nothing for trucking productivity. Multiple industry sources indicated that the restrictions cost truckload carriers 3% to 8% of their productivity as drivers completed fewer turns during a week. In addition, because the restrictions meant drivers sometimes had to take their restart midweek, both shipping delays and costs went up. Truck drivers also complained that their wages went down because they had fewer hours in which to work. And by reducing capacity and productivity, the rules were “basically spurring a need to hire additional inexperienced drivers,” Abbott added.\nBut now, those hitches may be taking a U-turn.\nWhen President Obama signed the fiscal year 2015 Omnibus Appropriations Bill into law in December, it included language that provided at least temporary relief from some of the restrictions on the hours of service restart rule.\nFirst, truck drivers are no longer limited to taking one 34-hour restart in a 168-hour period. In addition, the restart will no longer have to include two consecutive 1am-5am periods. In other words, drivers can restart their weekly hours by taking at least 34 consecutive hours off-duty, regardless of whether or not it includes two periods of time between 1am-5am. A driver can also utilize the restart more than one time per week if necessary.\nWith the two restrictions lifted, truck drivers will spend less time in busy city traffic, driving at night instead if they prefer. They’ll still get their needed time-outs but will also be able to recover lost efficiency and productivity.\nAs Abbott noted, rescinding the 34-hour restart restrictions allows truck drivers “the flexibility to work and to rest when circumstances are best for them.”\n“There are many rest provisions already in place,” Abbott said. “We didn’t see the logic in these restrictions.”\nAccording to Abbott, both carriers and drivers are united on the issue, with both groups pleased the restrictions were lifted.\nBut their satisfaction may be short-lived: Because the restart rule language resides in an annual spending bill, its terms expire at the end of fiscal year 2015, which is September 30. In the meantime, ATA is working to make sure the revised, simpler rules stay in effect. We’ll know later this year whether they’ve just been spinning their wheels.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://wongol.uk/can-i-drive-my-parents-car-without-insurance/", "date": "2024-03-04T01:00:25Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947476409.38/warc/CC-MAIN-20240304002142-20240304032142-00523.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9520397782325745, "token_count": 1384, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-10__0__66270308", "lang": "en", "text": "Can I drive my parents’ car without insurance? Driving a car without insurance can have serious legal and financial consequences.\nMany individuals wonder if they can drive their parents’ car without insurance coverage.\nWhile it may seem convenient to borrow a family member’s vehicle, it is crucial to understand the implications and potential risks involved in driving an uninsured car.\nThis article aims to shed light on the topic, providing insights into the potential risks of driving your parents’ uninsured car and steps to ensure adequate insurance coverage for driving your parents’ car.\nCan I Drive My Parents’ Car Without Insurance?\nDriving your parents’ car without insurance is a risky proposition that can have severe legal and financial consequences.\nWhile it may be tempting to borrow their vehicle, it’s essential to understand the potential implications before hitting the road.\nFirst and foremost, it’s crucial to recognize that insurance is not tied to the driver alone but rather the vehicle itself.\nMost countries require vehicles to have a minimum level of insurance coverage to protect against accidents and property damage.\nDriving an uninsured vehicle, including your parents’ car, typically violates these legal requirements.\nBy driving without insurance, you expose yourself to various risks. In the event of an accident, you may be held personally liable for any injuries or damages caused.\nThis can lead to substantial financial burdens, including medical bills, property repairs, and legal expenses.\nFurthermore, if you are at fault in an accident and cannot afford to cover the costs, you may face legal consequences, such as fines, license suspension, or even imprisonment.\nTo avoid these risks, it is crucial to ensure proper insurance coverage before driving your parents’ car.\nDepending on the circumstances, you may be able to add yourself as a named driver on their policy or explore other options such as temporary insurance coverage or non-owner car insurance.\nUltimately, driving your parents’ car without insurance is a precarious choice.\nIt is in your best interest to comply with the legal requirements and protect yourself by obtaining the appropriate insurance coverage before operating any vehicle, including one owned by your parents.\nPotential Risks of Driving Your Parents’ Uninsured Car\nDriving your parents’ uninsured car can expose you to a range of potential risks that can have significant consequences.\nIt’s essential to understand and acknowledge these risks before deciding to operate a vehicle without proper insurance coverage.\nOne of the most prominent risks is the potential for financial liability.\nIf you were to be involved in an accident while driving an uninsured car, you could be personally responsible for covering the costs of damages, medical expenses, and legal fees.\nThese expenses can quickly add up and place a substantial burden on your finances, potentially leading to long-term financial hardship.\nAdditionally, driving an uninsured car can have legal ramifications.\nMost jurisdictions require vehicles to have a minimum level of insurance coverage, and driving without it is often considered a violation of the law.\nIf you are caught driving without insurance, you may face penalties such as fines, license suspension, or even legal charges.\nThese consequences can have a long-lasting impact on your driving record, insurance premiums, and overall reputation.\nMoreover, operating an uninsured vehicle leaves you vulnerable in the event of an accident caused by another driver.\nWithout insurance coverage, you may struggle to receive compensation for your injuries or damages, which can result in prolonged legal battles and financial setbacks.\nTo mitigate these risks, it’s crucial to ensure that any vehicle you drive, including your parents’ car, is adequately insured.\nThis can be achieved by adding yourself as a named driver on their policy or exploring alternative options such as temporary insurance coverage or non-owner car insurance.\nOverall, driving your parents’ uninsured car exposes you to various potential risks, including financial liabilities, legal consequences, and difficulties in receiving compensation.\nIt is in your best interest to prioritize your safety and financial well-being by ensuring proper insurance coverage before operating any vehicle.\nSteps to Ensure Adequate Insurance Coverage for Driving Your Parents’ Car\nTo ensure adequate insurance coverage when driving your parents’ car, it is important to follow specific steps that will help protect you legally and financially.\nBy taking the following measures, you can mitigate potential risks and drive with peace of mind.\n1. Check the Existing Insurance Policy\nStart by reviewing your parents’ current insurance policy.\nVerify whether it allows for additional drivers or if you need to be added as a named driver.\nContact the insurance provider directly to clarify any uncertainties and ensure you have the necessary coverage.\n2. Add Yourself as a Named Driver\nIf required, request to be added as a named driver on your parents’ insurance policy.\nThis step will ensure that you are specifically covered under the policy when driving their car.\nKeep in mind that adding an additional driver might lead to an increase in premiums, so discuss the potential cost implications with your parents.\n3. Explore Non-Owner Car Insurance\nIf you frequently drive your parents’ car but are not listed as a named driver on their policy, consider obtaining non-owner car insurance.\nThis type of insurance provides liability coverage when driving vehicles you do not own.\nNon-owner insurance can be an effective solution if you frequently borrow cars from different sources.\n4. Temporary Insurance Coverage\nIf you only need insurance for a short period, such as during visits or vacations, temporary insurance coverage might be a suitable option.\nTemporary insurance provides coverage for a specific duration, ensuring you are adequately insured during that period.\n5. Consider Umbrella Insurance\nIn certain cases, it might be beneficial to have umbrella insurance.\nThis type of policy provides additional liability coverage that extends beyond the limits of your parents’ car insurance.\nUmbrella insurance can offer extra protection in situations where the existing policy falls short.\nRemember, it is essential to communicate openly with your parents and their insurance provider to ensure you have the necessary coverage.\nBy taking these steps, you can drive your parents’ car with confidence, knowing that you are adequately insured in case of any unforeseen incidents.\nDriving your parents’ car without insurance is a risky and ill-advised choice. Doing so can lead to severe legal and financial consequences.\nIt is crucial to understand that insurance is tied to the vehicle, not the driver, and most jurisdictions have legal requirements for minimum insurance coverage.\nTo protect yourself, it is essential to ensure adequate insurance coverage by adding yourself as a named driver on their policy or exploring other options.\nPrioritizing your safety and adhering to legal obligations is paramount when driving any vehicle, including one owned by your parents.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://paninshire.me/post/wiring-diagram-fusible-link", "date": "2019-12-15T12:56:25Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-51/segments/1575541308149.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20191215122056-20191215150056-00054.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.7752103805541992, "token_count": 4150, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-51", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-51__0__135921204", "lang": "en", "text": "Fusible Link – Page 2 – Circuit Wiring Diagrams\nThe following schematic depicts the 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser Cooling Fan Wiring Diagram.Herein you will get detailed description of electronic parts of the Cooling Fan system which include Battery, Fusible Link, Fuse, Ignition Switch, Cooling Fan Motor Relay, Manifold Temperature Sensor, Fan Motor, Ignition Relay, and Cooling Fan Relay Connector (cooling fan relay is located behind driver’s ...

You need automobile accident lawyers to determine who is at fault and how much is owed to you in damages. Our lawyers advise you about the best steps to take after an automobile accident. We represent you in the following kinds of vehicle accidents--and the issues that may arise from them:\nDrunk driving injuries and deaths. Intoxicated drivers cause injury and death to innocent victims every day in automobile accidents. The negligent actions of drunk drivers frequently result in an auto accident injury, or even result in death to innocent passengers, pedestrians, and other drivers.\nBus accidents. The problematic nature of bus accidents, owing to the size and speed of the vehicle, and the number of its occupants, can cause serious injuries such as spinal cord damage and whiplash.\nMotorcycle accidents. Everyone must share the road with all vehicles, including motorcycles. When a motorcycle accident takes place as a result of carelessness or recklessness, you have the legal right to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and long-term care.\nBoat accidents. Despite safety efforts set up by the Coast Guard and various state agencies, thousands of people are injured every year because of negligence arising from recklessness and intoxication on the part of boat operators.\nPedestrian accidents. Thousands of pedestrians are injured each year in non-vehicular accidents. Causes for these injuries include:\n1. Poor property maintenance\n2. Sidewalk obstacles\n3. Dangerous debris on pedestrian pathways\nKnockdown injuries. Pedestrian injuries and accidents can be devastating, as pedestrians are often unable to take precautions against being hit. In addition, such claims are rarely given fair treatment by insurance companies. We can help with your injury lawsuit in Queens and in surrounding areas.\nTruck accidents.

With millions of tires discarded each year, tire recycling has emerged as a crucial solution to minimize environmental impacts, conserve natural resources, and promote sustainability. This page explores the tire recycling process, its benefits, and the various innovative ways that discarded tires can be repurposed for a greener future.\nSorting and Shredding Upon arrival at the recycling facility, the collected tires undergo a thorough sorting process to separate them based on size, type, and condition. Tires unfit for recycling are appropriately disposed of, while reusable ones move on to the shredding stage. A powerful shredder breaks down the tires into smaller pieces, facilitating the subsequent processing steps.\nSteel and Fiber Removal After shredding, magnets and other separation methods are used to extract steel wires from the tire fragments. These steel wires are valuable and can be recycled for various industrial purposes. Additionally, any fibers present in the shredded material are also separated and collected for reuse.\nGranulation The shredded rubber is further processed through granulation, a process that transforms the rubber pieces into granules or crumb rubber. This granulated material becomes the foundation for a wide range of recycled rubber products.\nEnvironmental Impact Reduction Tire recycling significantly reduces the environmental impact of discarded tires. By preventing tire stockpiles and illegal dumping, it helps protect natural habitats and prevents the risk of tire fires, which release toxic pollutants into the air.\nConservation of Natural Resources Tire recycling conserves valuable natural resources by decreasing the demand for virgin rubber and other raw materials used in tire manufacturing. This process promotes a circular economy, where discarded tires become the basis for new products.\nEnergy Savings Recycling tires requires less energy compared to the production of new tires from raw materials. Energy savings translate into reduced greenhouse gas emissions and a lower carbon footprint, contributing to the fight against climate change.\nEconomic Benefits Tire recycling also presents economic advantages. It creates jobs in the recycling industry, stimulates innovation in sustainable technologies, and reduces costs associated with waste tire disposal and environmental remediation.\nCrumb Rubber Applications One of the most common uses of recycled tires is producing crumb rubber. Crumb rubber is utilized in various applications, including:\nTire-Derived Fuel (TDF) Tire-derived fuel involves shredding tires into smaller pieces and using them as a fuel source in various industrial processes, such as cement kilns and pulp and paper mills. TDF provides an alternative to fossil fuels and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.\nPyrolysis and Gasification Pyrolysis and gasification are thermal processes that break down tires in the absence of oxygen to produce valuable products such as liquid fuels, synthetic gases, and carbon black. These processes are gaining attention for their potential to convert tires into valuable resources.\nTire recycling plays a vital role in promoting environmental sustainability and addressing the global challenge of waste tire disposal. By reusing and repurposing discarded tires, the tire recycling industry contributes to reduced environmental impact, energy savings, and resource conservation. Innovative uses of recycled tires continue to emerge, driving advancements in green technologies and the circular economy. As tire recycling practices evolve, we move closer to a future where waste tires are no longer a burden but a valuable resource in our journey towards a greener and more sustainable world.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.gpscartracking.com.ng/fuel-monitoring-system-in-nigeria", "date": "2023-09-26T09:17:35Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510179.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20230926075508-20230926105508-00330.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9150735139846802, "token_count": 581, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-40__0__17221061", "lang": "en", "text": "Best Fuel tank Monitoring System for tankers in Nigeria.\nGPS Tracking Nigeria provides robust fuel monitoring system for fuel tankers and filling stations | Book Now 07069726281.\nGPS Car tracking company provides the Best fuel tank monitoring for tankers solutions in Nigeria which enables each user to have indepth analysis of fuel usage and fuel theft. With our fuel tank monitoring system in Nigeria, fuel station managers can remotely monitor the level of fuel in each tankers on the road and monitor any fuel theft.\nSteps to take to monitor fuel theft from tankers in Nigeria\nThere are basically five essential part to track fuel tanker theft with our fuel tanker monitoring in Nigeria: the pump, the tank gauge, the fuel management system, the fuel access device and the software.\nVehicles and/or drivers are allocated a unique ID in the form of a Tag, Card, Kisskey or PIN. This ID is used to validate their identity and grant them access to fuel stocks.

Typically, operators use the software to gain an understanding of their fuelling costs and view a detailed breakdown of fuel stock consumption by user, vehicle and site.\nTypes of Fuel tank Monitoring system for tankers in Nigeria.\nThere are three main aspects to Fuel tank monitoring system for tankers:\nStep 1: Measuring fuel tank levels\nWhen fuel is delivered to a site, the amount of fuel transferred from the delivery tank to the onsite fuel storage tank is measured using an electronic Tank Gauge. This data is automatically fed in to the Fuel tank monitoring system for tankers and provides a clear picture of the current tank stock. The gauges can also carry out leak detection analysis.\nStep 2: Driver Identification and Validation\nWhenever a vehicle is refuelled, the fuel dispensed is monitored and accounted for. The dispensing equipment interfaces with the Fuel Management System and drivers can be identified by using a non contact tag, Kisskey or PIN number.\nStep 3: Comprehensive fuel data reports\nFuelling data and reports are charted by GPS Fleetmatic Software; This software computes data gathered from various sensor and parameters to produce a real-time reporting and detailed information for the fuel manager.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.x95radio.com/2018/06/12/georgia-man-killed-when-motorcycle-struck-by-semi-on-i-57/", "date": "2019-01-21T00:57:30Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-04/segments/1547583745010.63/warc/CC-MAIN-20190121005305-20190121031305-00592.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9721992611885071, "token_count": 171, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-04", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-04__0__27315518", "lang": "en", "text": "CUMBERLAND COUNTY — A 56-year-old Georgia man was killed early Tuesday morning when his motorcycle was struck by a semi-truck on Interstate 57 in Cumberland County.\nAccording to the Illinois State Police, around 1:54 a.m. Tuesday, 41-year-old James T.

You can get all the details directly from BMW here.\nThe bigger questions are: what’s up with these updates? How do you find out about them? How do you know if they are for your model BMW? And more importantly, can you install the updates on your own or do you have to go to your dealer?\nLet me give you a quick run-down on how it works:\nThere are basically two kinds of BMW software updates. A main software update addresses system-wide issues and features and upgrades any of your car’s electronic control modules (ECUs) that require it. To make sure you are getting exactly the update you need, BMW computers will first check the hardware number on each of your ECUs. For this reason, these main software updates can only be completed by BMW dealers or shops equipped with special programming equipment (like BimmerTech). Unless something is not working correctly or you need the update in order to fix the car or get newer equipment to work, you won’t need this kind of upgrade. In fact, BMW recommends against it unless absolutely necessary, and we agree due to potential complications and risks.\nMore common, though, is a partial software update, or media software update. This may cover things like multimedia, Bluetooth, Internet connectivity, or mobile device compatibility improvements, as the most recent update mentioned above provides. Any owner can install this kind of update as long as your car features a Combox, which works with iDrive and enhances many technology features on your BMW. Newer NBT iDrive systems have Combox functionality built-in, making it even easier. But even older models can be retrofitted with iDrive (at Bimmer-Tech.net) and Combox (check out the BimmerTech Combox Retrofit Kit).\nIf your Combox or NBT iDrive is factory-installed, you would download the update file from BMW using your VIN number. If you installed the BimmerTech Combox Retrofit Kit or BimmerTech NBT Navigation Retrofit Kit, BMW’s records will still reflect that your car doesn’t have the new hardware, and therefore, won’t show that you qualify for the software update. In that case, all you do is get in touch with us and we’ll get you the official BMW update.\nWhether you get the update directly from BMW or us, installing the software update is no more complicated than updating your navigation's map. Simply put the file on a thumb drive or other USB memory stick, plug it into the armrest USB port and go to the Settings menu in iDrive. Locate the Software Update option in the menu and follow the instructions on the screen.\nPretty straight-forward. But there’s one final question: what if you add a Combox or NBT Navigation using a BimmerTech upgrade kit and BMW introduces an essential main software update sometime down the road? No worries. Just remove the Combox/NBT before taking your BMW to your dealer for the update. Then reinstall it when you get it back. If it needs recoding as sometimes happens, just contact our tech team and we’ll get it going again in no time.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://dvtrusts.com/events/police-evoc-for-suvs-5-2-3/", "date": "2023-10-02T15:47:14Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511000.99/warc/CC-MAIN-20231002132844-20231002162844-00809.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9617732763290405, "token_count": 290, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-40__0__168624544", "lang": "en", "text": "Please call 215-706-0101 to be added to the wait list, class is currently filled.

The G90 is its flagship model, a four-door luxury sedan comparable to the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7 Series, but available at a lower price point.\nThe G90 traces its roots back to the Equus, the full-size luxury sedan Hyundai launched in the Korean market back in 1999. After ten years, the company replaced it with an all-new Equus, and unlike its predecessor, this one came to North America.\nHaving seen what Toyota created with Lexus, Nissan with Infiniti, and Honda with Acura, Hyundai spun off the Genesis brand late in 2015 as its upscale counterpart. The Hyundai Genesis sedan was rebadged as the Genesis G80, and the Hyundai Equus was replaced with the new Genesis G90, laying the groundwork for more models to come.\nThe Latest Generation\nLike the Equus before it, the new Genesis G90 is positioned as a value proposition. Where the BMW 7 Series and Audi A8 kick off in the low-$80k range, and the Mercedes S-Class only gets started at nearly $100k, the G90 starts at under $70k—even undercutting aging also-rans like the Lexus LS and Jaguar XJ.\nBuyers can select between a 3.3-liter twin-turbo V-6 rated at 365 horsepower or a 5.0-liter V-8 good for 420 hp. Both come mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission driving either the rear wheels or all four wheels.\nWhy You’d Consider One\nAs we wrote in our First Drive, the Genesis G90 grants you “Mercedes-Benz features and technology at a Cadillac price.” The G90 offers “a pleasant, comfortable, somewhat floating, and satisfying ride with plenty of power to pass when needed.”\nWhy You’d Look Elsewhere\nAlthough tasteful, the design of the Genesis G90 is quite conservative on the exterior and interior. Many would prefer the look of more striking offerings from BMW, Mercedes, and Lexus.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://avanticars.org.uk/2.html", "date": "2021-05-14T00:51:22Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-21/segments/1620243989616.38/warc/CC-MAIN-20210513234920-20210514024920-00559.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9455136060714722, "token_count": 216, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2021-21", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2021-21__0__219749932", "lang": "en", "text": "Our luxury Land Rover Discovery is fully air conditioned, regularly valeted and professionally maintained.

Plenty of people have cars. Some even have multiple cars! When I turned of driving age, my parents bought me a 94 Ford Escort, in a super pretty teal/blue/green/shiny color. I drove that car until it broke down on me in the middle of the night on a dangerous highway, known for killing random people. My parents sold that car for me and then gave me their old car. 1998 Nissan Altima. This is the car that I learned how to drive a stick. Even though I was super grateful for the car, I didn’t earn it and that bothered me. My dad still had control over me with this car and would guilt me into doing stuff (or not doing stuff) because he would hold the car over my head.\nOne day, after I just got dumped by my supposed “Love of My Life” (NOW, I realize what a joker he was) I decided that I am going to trade in that car, get rid of all the bad memories and buy something that I want, something that I paid for and something I could actually call my own.\nInsert car I still have 11 years later. I bought a 1999 Acura Integra. I LOVED this car. It was two doors, so I didn’t have to feel obligated to give everyone and their mother rides, it was a stick, which I just prefer now, it was just a perfect car. Well, 11 years later, I still have this car. I have been wanting to get rid of it for awhile, sell it, whatever but I have not managed to. This car has been the best little car I have ever had. As long as I keep her full of oil, water and gas, she will run forever! We have been through some times, that car and I. I lived in her for awhile, I hid her from the repo man for about six months, we have traveled to San Francisco, Vegas, Arizona, and all over Southern California. We have had a great time together. She can handle all my abuse, and does it with grace and style.\nIts been 11 years. I am ready for a four door. Leather seats, the temperature on the rear view mirror. When I push a button for air, I want cold air to come out. A windshield I can see out of, everything new (within two years at least). I want to be able to plug in my phone and have it play through the speakers, not the way I am doing it now. When I talk to friends I haven’t seen for a long time, I don’t want to hear, “You still drive that car?” I am ready for a change. I love my car, LOVE her, but I have finally outgrown her. She will be a great car for some young kid who doesn’t mind fixing up a car (we had an unfortunate accident that involved the guard rail on the freeway and bald tires), and the various dents I have collected over the years (parking lot and those punk ass kids that live on the street), and the drunken rage of an ex-fiance who was mad that I hid his keys so he couldn’t drive.\nI have been trying to justify buying a new car for awhile now. I think I have finally set a goal. This way I can save a bit for a down payment, plus sell my car and hopefully get my credit cleaned up enough. When I graduate from school with my Bachelors in Business (specializing in Event Planning… anyone want to get married or have a party?!) as a reward to myself, I will buy a new car! Perhaps not brand new, but no more than two years old.\nI am so excited. I know this year will fly by and soon … in 547.5 days I will have a new(ish) car!!", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://wvasfm.org/post/alabamians-see-increase-gas-prices", "date": "2016-10-25T21:40:37Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-44/segments/1476988720380.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20161020183840-00392-ip-10-171-6-4.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9091965556144714, "token_count": 105, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2016-44", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2016-44__0__160716459", "lang": "en", "text": "Alabamians See Increase in Gas Prices\nMontgomery, Alabama – It's costing more to fill up gas tanks in Alabama.

Each year, people line the streets, despite the blistering heat, and watch the cars, which range from 1930s roadsters to brand-new Corvettes, go up and down Main Street.\nKen Cass of South Bend, the owner of a red 1955 Chevy, has been attending the Cruisin’ Reunion for the past seven years. He rarely drives the car during the cruise-in, but keeps it parked on a side street, away from the busy traffic cruising down Main.\n“I’ve had this car for three years now.” Cass said.\nAccording to Cass, he was driving his 1952 Chevy in South Bend one afternoon when he was stopped by a city police officer. When the officer came up to the car, he immediately asked Cass if he was interested in selling or trading the vehicle.\n“After I gave him my phone number, he called me a total of 11 times to ask me about my car. I finally decided I was ready to let the ‘52 go. We did a straight trade — the ‘52 for the ‘55 I’ve got now.” Cass said.\nSeven years ago, Cass, an Interurban Trolley driver, saw an advertisement promoting the Cruisin’ Reunion while he was driving his trolley.\n“I happened to see a sign for the cruise-in and I thought I’d check it out. I’ve been coming ever since.” Cass said.\nAnother car enthusiast, Joe Sailor of Mishawaka, parked his 1970 Chevelle convertible in the Verizon parking lot, at the corner of Main and Jefferson streets, and sat in his folding chair, watching the cars drive past.\nSailor, a life-long car fan, now owns nine classic automobiles. In addition to his Chevelle, Sailor also owns a Corvette, a Nova, a Cadillac, and a Camaro, among other cars. Sailor has been attending the Cruisin’ Reunion for five years now.\n“I just really enjoy seeing everyone and their cars.” Sailor said.\nAlmost all the faces of those who crowded Goshen’s downtown sidewalks Friday night were decorated with smiles. And the sounds of horns and rumbling exhaust systems from the parade of cars, motorcyles and even a mo-ped, filled the air.\nCamden Chaffee can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.org or 574-533-2151, ext. 314.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.globexauto.com/inventory/", "date": "2019-03-24T19:25:49Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-13/segments/1552912203491.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20190324190033-20190324212033-00094.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.776526153087616, "token_count": 305, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-13", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-13__0__57297343", "lang": "en", "text": "I agree to receive text messages from Globex auto sales representatives and understand that no consent to texting is required for purchase of products or services.\n1240 W.

Watch for deer especially around dawn and between the hours of 6 p.m. and 9 p.m., when they’re most active.\nBe aware. Look out for deer-crossing signs and wooded areas where animals are likely to travel. If you travel the same route to and from work every day, you may find deer consistently grazing in the same fields. Make a mental note of when and where you regularly see the animals.\nBe alert. If you see an animal on the side of the road, slow down. At night when traffic permits, put on your high beams for improved visibility.\nBrake, don’t swerve. Swerving to avoid an animal can put you at risk for hitting another vehicle or losing control of your car. It can also confuse the animal as to which way to go. Instead, just slow down as quickly and safely as you can. Your odds for surviving an accident are better when hitting an animal than hitting another car.\nThey probably have friends. Deer travel in groups, so if you see one run across the road, expect others to follow.\nDon’t rely on deer whistles. These are aftermarket devices that some drivers put on their front bumpers to scare off animals. But animal behavior remains unpredictable, even if you use one of these.\nBuckle up. A seat belt is your best defense for minimizing your risk in a crash. An Insurance Institute for Highway Safety study found that 60 percent of the people killed in animal-vehicle collisions weren’t wearing their seat belts.\nIf you hit an animal, move your car safely off the road and call the police or animal control. Don’t attempt to touch an injured animal. Photograph the scene, then call your insurance company when you get home. Damage from animal collisions is usually covered by auto insurance policies.\nWe work with all insurance companies and repair all types of damage.

Detroit knows how to make fuel-efficient cars, even though they’re going to be expensive, and even though they won’t be available for sale for a year or more.\nIn the meantime, all the Great Lakes communities in which GM, Ford, and Chrysler and their suppliers build cars, SUVs, trucks, and parts can expect more layoffs and downsizing.\nIn Buffalo, the River Road Powertrain engine plant—which received a huge package of state and county incentives to assist its $1 billion retooling—has only 1,000 workers compared to its 1999 workforce of around 4,000. American Axle on Delevan Avenue, after shedding 1,200 workers, is closed entirely. Delphi in Lockport is down radically. The Ford stamping plant in Woodlawn is down by half but still functioning. Yet it’s all sunshine here compared to Marion, Ohio, where GM plants that produce gas-sucking SUVs will close entirely. Michigan has lost 450,000 auto-related jobs.\nGM, Ford, and Chrysler management decided against building energy-efficient vehicles that are profitable. They also decided—despite worldwide experience—not to use their combined Washington lobbying power to seek fundamental US policy change on healthcare, pension, and fuel policy, even as they located more production facilities in Canada.\nThus the decisions of senior executives at Detroit-based, investor-owned companies means that the place where you live will experience more out-migration, more family distress, and more houses put up for sale in a part of the country that already has depressed home prices.\nMost annoyingly, the bad decisions by GM, Ford and Chrysler executives—even after President Jimmy Carter and other grownups told them all 30 years ago to start making cars more fuel-efficient—are making politics in the Great Lakes states uglier.\nMany a chamber of commerce genius will be heard from, telling us that the road to renewed prosperity in the automobile-producing areas is paved with tax cuts for investors, and an end to high-wage jobs, and to unions, and a rollback of environmental regulations.\nNote, however, that high-tax, highly regulated Canada sees good prospects for keeping automobile-related manufacturing jobs. In a mid-2005 report from GM’s CEO Rick Waggoner, the Oshawa plant up the road from Toronto was singled out as the most productive of GM’s 26 North American plants. Waggoner himself noted that the socialized Ontario healthcare system, which left GM paying only 15 percent of what it pays in employee benefits in US plants, left GM a profitable operation that still pays Canadian auto workers the same high wages they make here. Union spokesmen in Oshawa last week spoke hopefully about getting new orders to produce new GM hybrid cars.\nThat’s the same system that attracted Toyota to invest over $800 million in a new plant, scheduled to come on-line in the next year or so, about 50 miles west of Hamilton.\nBut even if Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Upstate New York were annexed by Ontario (if only to the extent that all the crushing legacy costs of employer-funded healthcare benefits would be picked up by the government), we’d still have to face two tough realities of the car industry.\nFirst, there’s a market reality: The demand for the SUVs and pickup trucks produced in the Great Lakes area has collapsed as gas prices have risen. The second true fact, which is not new at all, is that Washington’s failure to produce an energy policy has visited specific and disproportionate harm on almost all the Great Lakes communities where automobile workers live.\nWorse before better\nMoody’s Investor Services, which advises investors on how credit-worthy big companies are, last week downgraded General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler, because none of the Big Three American automakers is going to be able to shift production quickly in order to meet consumer demand for cars that drink less $5-a-gallon gasoline.\nHarvard economist Michael Porter left the lofty heights of economic theory behind and put up the economic map of the Car States on the screen at a recent Brookings Institution conference in Washington. It’s pretty clear that when economists talk about “industry clusters,” and then pull out the Mapquest display, the Rust Belt overlaps with the GM-Ford-Chrysler belt.\nIt’s scary stuff.\nMeanwhile, there is a growing consensus that fixing the car industry isn’t the only challenge ahead.\nFor centrists at the Brookings Institution, there has long been a consensus that public transportation has to be part of the federal policy mix. Not so for the folks at the Cato Institute, a libertarian think-tank that has contributed policy analysis, perspective, and rhetoric to Republicans.\nRandal O’Toole, a prolific Cato Institute writer, puts it this way: “Ideally, the federal government should not be in the business of funding local transportation and dictating local transportation policies.” He opposes pro-urban regulation, opposes so-called “smart growth,” and saves his most vigorous antipathy for light-rail systems—in part because they go way the heck out into far-flung suburbs, where white folks eschew them in favor of SUVs.\nYet even the Cato guy has had to alter his tune in the new environment of historically high gas prices. “Transit agencies,” he wrote in the Seattle Times on May 1, 2008, “could also consider alternative fuels. Hybrid-electric buses, for example, save far more energy per dollar invested than the most efficient rail systems.”\nMoreover, O’Toole wrote, in a back-handed endorsement of public transportation, “Seattle could save even more by expanding its electric-powered trolley buses, which are far less expensive to build—in both dollars and energy—than rail transit.”\nI think we are beginning to see a harmonic convergence: When the Cato talking heads write about not whether but how to invest in the transit systems the Brookings people praise, you know we’re in a new time.\nWho will get the federal dough?\nA recent Wall Street Journal profile of Honda’s CEO, who started his career as a race-car engineer for the Japanese automaker, makes one wish that GM, Ford, and Chrysler were led by people who have known for decades how to make money making efficient cars. Honda and Toyota will likely gain even more market-share even here in the Car States because they already have the capacity to produce and distribute the fuel-efficient cars.\nThe Big Three have had access to American politicians for decades. Honda may fund its own research and development, but here in America, where there is no such thing as actual free-market economics at work in transportation, the best we can now realistically expect is that GM and Ford win their fight for ever-larger chunks of federal taxpayer dollars for new transportation initiatives—so that Car State economies don’t lose manufacturing entirely.\nToday, UCLA economist Matthew E. Kahn estimates that there is a net $40 billion annual subsidy—over and above user fees like gas taxes and tolls—that helps the automobile industry keep its hegemony of personal gasoline-powered transportation over public transport. It would be simplistic, but not inaccurate, to add to that calculation the cost of the Iraq war, and of a foreign policy dominated by a search for allies among oil producers, to the annual auto-industry subsidy.\nBut that subsidy goes to the automobile industry generally. What form of Lemon Socialism will we see for the Big Three?\nThe question for the rest of us in the Great Lakes/Car States is not whether we want our federal tax dollars to get spent on transportation, but whether the way in which our money is spent will continue to empower the GM and Ford and Chrysler executives who have screwed things up at our expense—or whether our money comes with instructions.\nSenator Obama has spoken only vaguely about new federal investment in public transportation. Senator McCain has a history of hostility to the issue.\nGreat Lakes communities whose workers know how to manufacture SUVs would, I am sure, be delighted to accept federal funds to host GM, Ford, and Chrysler plants that produce the electric streetcars and fuel-efficient buses that even anti-government ideologues endorse.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.worx.com/20v-battery-quick-charger-wa3764.html", "date": "2024-04-13T16:36:25Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296816820.63/warc/CC-MAIN-20240413144933-20240413174933-00798.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8189433813095093, "token_count": 266, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__183525645", "lang": "en", "text": "20V Power Share 60-Minute Quick Car Charger\n- 18V/20V Li-ion 1hr.

A lot many in the country were glued to their seats waiting for something consequential to be announced. In its last budget presentation, before the general elections are held later this year, the BJP government did, in fact, give the countrymen lot to be happy about. Starting with major tax relief for the middle-class, the Finance Minister went on to discuss the future of Electric Motor Vehicles in India. The automotive industry has been one of the fastest growing industries in the history of mankind, one which man has been trying to perfect since the discovery of the wheel. From the days of Enzo Ferrari and Henry Ford showcasing human ingenuity at the start of the 20th century, the world has since then moved onto Electric Cars-with Elon Musk’s Tesla leading the charge. However, up until now, there were no incentives to bring Electric car manufacturing companies to move their production to India which now the Indian Government hopes to change. What are these new plans and how will they be implemented? Let’s find out!\nWhy are Electric Cars important for the future?\nA report released by a US Publication Wards Auto put the total number of cars in the world at more than 1 billion in 2011. And in the last decade, the number has only grown higher. It is not hard to imagine the adverse effects such a high number of pollution producing cars have on the environment, and with more and more people buying cars every day, there seems to be no immediate respite.\nVehicles have become a necessary part of our daily lives and to live without one seems almost unthinkable. However, the rising rates of asthma cases and melting glaciers paint a rather grim picture of the current state of the planet, and if this trend continues, mankind may not be around a century or two from now. So how can we help save the planet and drive to work at the same time? The only solution to this conundrum seems to be Electric Motor Vehicles, and the Indian Government seems to agree. During the Interim Budget, Union Finance Minister Piyush Goyal hailed Electric Cars as the future of the Automotive Industry. To find out more, keep reading!\nInterim Budget 2019- What did Piyush Goyal say?\nDuring the interim budget on Friday, Finance Minister Piyush Goyal proposed a 10 point vision for the future of the country, setting the tone for the upcoming 2019 Lok Sabha Elections.\nThe Finance Minister started the presentation with the catchphrase, New India 2030 which included a promise to make India an energy independent nation by limiting the import of crude oil from the Gulf and increasing use of Electric Vehicles in India. The budget brought forth the commitment to making electric vehicles more affordable by incentivizing electric motor vehicle production in India and decreasing import duties for vehicle parts.\nThe Indian Government had already tried to promote Electric Vehicles in the past with Phase 1 of FAME( Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles ) during with a Rs 795 Crore incentive plan was laid out for EV manufacturers, however, no clear directives were issued by the government which led to a low-investor turnout. In the Interim Budget presented on Friday, the Finance Minister introduced Phase 2 of FAME to the public which included some major changes in the financial workings of the country.\nIncentives of worth Rs 5500 crore have been laid out in Phase 2 of FAME. Now, instead of the previous 15-30 per cent import duty on vehicle components, only 5-10 per cent will be charged. Importing an already assembled Electric Car in India used to cost 100 per cent of the price of the car, which has now been reduced to just 25 per cent. This clear level of distinction in import duties shows a clear vision from the Government and car manufacturers abroad like Tesla will be pretty happy with the way things turned out on Friday. Moreover, the Modi Government announced its vision of energy security with a focus on renewable energy as the main source of recharging electric vehicles. The government estimates 30 per cent of Indians will be driving electric vehicles by 2030 under the New India Scheme.\nIts impact on India and it’s Automotive Industry\nWith such strong convictions of the government, there seems to be no doubt in our minds that there is indeed a future for Electric Motor Vehicles in India. With the change in policy, new companies will be eyeing the Indian market in the coming months. And Indian companies like Tata will find developing electric vehicles in India a lot easier under the “Make In India” campaign which already provides subsidies for India based manufacturing companies. A lot of Indians will be looking to get their hands on imported Electric Cars as well, as they become more affordable due to lower import taxes. For example, the Tesla Model 3 costs about 23.2 lakh rupees in the US and in India, it is double that. So with the new phase of FAME announced by the Finance Minister, the likes of Tesla will see a huge boost in sales and this may lead to other companies following suit and moving their production to India.\nMoreover, as India moves towards becoming a true superpower, Energy independence will be important for its future. With the increasing instability in the Gulf, it is unwise to stay dependent upon them for sources of energy for long (81 US Billion Dollars worth of crude oil is imported every year from the Gulf to Indian shores). And so India relying with being the first country to lead the transportive revolution by mobilizing the country to adopt eco-friendly Electric Motor Vehicles, India will prove as a beacon for other countries to follow suit and lead the charge against Global Warming. We at Social Cube commend the Indian Government in its effort to make India a true economic power by thinking outside the box and wish them the best of luck. This is a step forward in the right direction, and we hope the folks who make the decisions keep fighting the good fight.

If you’re just looking to do basics like tightening your lug nuts it works without blowing the bank.\nBuyers like: Comes with 5 inch extension and 3/8 to 1/2 adapter inside the case. Simple and effective. Rugged. Free shipping. No plastic parts. Has a gorilla on the box apparently\nBuyers rant: Heavier than anticipated.

There’s nothing worse than being a beginner and doing your first oil change and stripping the drain plug tightening because they didn’t know proper tightening torque. Or even worse changing spark plugs in an aluminum head and over tightening and damaging threads, that will ruin your day quick. Even if you’re not a beginner its still good to use to be confident in quality of work.\n1.

As we grow older, we often realize that certain aspects of drive safely become increasingly challenging. One of the largest threats of operating a motor vehicle safely is driving with hearing loss.\nIf you do notice a change in your hearing, it can have a significant impact on your driving safety. If you experience hearing loss and choose to ignore it, you may experience cognitive problems down the road, and safety hazards when behind the wheel.Johns Hopkins Medicine reports there is an undeniable connection between hearing health and brain health. A constant struggle to hear forces the brain to dedicate much of its valuable resources in an effort to understand what people are saying. It is a contributing factor to brain atrophy, which leads to dementia, and a person suffering from dementia certainly can’t drive.Driving requires effective observational skills, which relates to your auditory ability. The Center for Hearing and Communication states that about 48 million people in the U.S. have hearing loss, and a many of them continue to operate motor vehicles without treating their hearing loss.One study found that individuals driving a car with hearing loss are generally more visually aware of what’s going on and, typically, more careful than some hearing drivers. They drive at a slower pace when on the road and make use of their mirrors more to compensate for what they can’t hear. However, they still have higher rates of accidents when behind the wheel.\nIn order to stay safe on the road as you get older, you’ll need to make some adjustments so that you can account for hearing loss. Follow a few simple steps and you can stay safe on the road despite your hearing loss. Here are some tips to help you drive safely and responsibly with hearing aids.For anyone with hearing loss, any extra noises can be extremely distracting, and reduce road safety. Keep chaos inside the car down to a minimum. Keep it quiet and calm inside your car so you can focus on hearing important traffic noise without distractions. Shut the radio off completely and ask anyone riding with you to keep conversation to a minimum as well.\nIt’s the little things that will add up when you drive with hearing loss. For example, if you have hearing loss you won’t hear the clicking of the turn signal that you forgot to turn off after changing lanes. You will have to rely on your eyes to pick up the slack, so get in the habit of checking your dashboard regularly to see what your car is trying to tell you.\nYou’re not going to hear that rattling noise under the hood anymore, or the warning bell telling you there is a problem with your engine or another critical component. That is a major safety hazard, so make a point of having your car serviced routinely. That’s a good idea for most people but a necessity if you are driving with hearing loss.\nOf course you would do this anyway, but make sure you look for signs you may be missing something. You may not hear emergency sirens, for instance, so if you notice cars pulling over to the side, you should follow suit. Look to see how other drivers are responding to their surroundings to get clues on what you might not be hearing, and always stay alert.\nCan you drive with hearing loss? That’s up to you. It is possible to be a good driver even if your hearing is not what it used to be because odds are your other senses will help you make the adjustment, but to keep everyone safe, don’t get behind the wheel without your hearing aids.The best way to increase your road safety is to check your hearing.

Being a driver behind the wheel means you have to be responsible for your health, and this includes your hearing health.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://c-m-h.co.uk/mot/", "date": "2020-07-12T15:11:37Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-29/segments/1593657138752.92/warc/CC-MAIN-20200712144738-20200712174738-00341.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9330376982688904, "token_count": 256, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2020-29", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2020-29__0__2717322", "lang": "en", "text": "The Ministry of Transport test MOT is an annual test of car safety and roadworthiness aspects applicable to most vehicles over a certain age in the United Kingdom if they are used on public roads.\nIt is illegal to drive a non-exempt vehicle that requires a test on public roads without a current MOT, except when driving to or from a pre-booked MOT Test.

The good news is, when it comes to individuals who love their cars, it’s not too difficult to find a few gifts that they’re sure to love. The team at Garage Interiors Inc., here in Wisconsin, knows a thing or two about what car enthusiasts love. That is why, in today’s blog post, we are going to talk about a few gifts that you can take into consideration while shopping this holiday season.\nCleaning Supplies and Products\nMaintaining the interior and exterior of a car is something that all car enthusiasts will do. Whether it’s an older model or it’s simply a car that they love, you can’t go wrong with cleaning products and supplies. These are things that they’re going to use or that would make maintaining their car just a tiny bit easier. From products that make getting tough to clean things like bird poop and tree sap of the exterior of the car easier out to supplies that yield streak-free windows, there are countless options, and they’re sure to love receiving every one of them!\nAs we just finished mentioning, the exterior of the car is something that takes some time to maintain. If the car enthusiast that you’re shopping for is particularly fond of older models, chances are that they’re not driving them all that much. In these instances, having something to protect the exterior of the car is a great idea. A cloth car cover is an affordable gift that they’re sure to love and frequently use.\nThe appearance of the car, both interior and exterior, is something that car enthusiasts are always working to maintain. Even so, it can be tough to get into some of those hard-to-reach spots. In these instances, a car detailing package is the perfect gift to give. Let a professional spend some time cleaning both the interior and exterior of the car so it looks spick-and-span!\nTools & Toolbox\nAnother great idea for car enthusiasts is a tool box or tools that they can use when working on their car. There are so many different tools available for them to use while tinkering on a car, it can be tough to keep them organized. Finding a nice toolbox for them to store all of these tools in is a gift that they will not only love, but use! If they already have a toolbox, finding a tool that they don’t already have or an accessory that makes working on cars just a little bit easier is an option you could take advantage of.\nFun Gadgets and Accessories\nThere are so many different gadgets that have surfaced in the last couple of years, you’d be surprised what you can find when shopping! In regards to cars, there are fun items for just about everyone and for countless circumstances. Here in Wisconsin, for example, snow is something that everyone is going to have to deal with. There are now a handful of products that are designed to make cleaning snow off the windshield just a little bit easier. There are also phone mounts, electric blankets, and so much more that you’d be surprised to find exist. These unique items make for great gifts, and they’re also something that your loved one is sure to use.\nGarage Organization Solutions\nWhen you have a car that you love, you can guarantee it’s going in the garage at the end of the day. Unfortunately, most of us get a little carried away with the amount of junk and stuff that we store in our garages. With this build up of “stuff” in the garage, the chances of something falling on the car, scratching it, or denting it are pretty high. Aside from that, you don’t always have tons of room to work on the car when you’ve got junk everywhere. If this sounds like the garage of the car enthusiast that you’re shopping for, consider purchasing a garage organization solution for them. Garage Interiors has a wide variety of storage solutions that you can choose from. Whether they’d benefit from cabinets that help clean up the space or they’re in need of a workbench to tinker on projects, we’ve got you covered! The best part is, any of these solutions is something that your loved one will appreciate and adore.\nShop Garage Interiors\nThere are so many fantastic ways that you can splurge on your loved one this holiday season, and Garage Interiors hopes to be a part of the plan. Whether it’s garage storage or a garage flooring solution, you can count on us to provide you with all of the information that you need to find the right storage option.

Quick Facts\nDeveloper: Electronic Arts Canada\nPublisher: Electronic Arts\nRelease date: some day on some month of the year 1998\nPlatforms: PlayStation, PC\nIn this 3rd version of the Need For Speed franchise you will hit the streets in more then a dozen of supercars and race them on a variety of tracks and the returning of police pursuits is a major part of gameplay. Hot Pursuit remains focused in racing using exotic sports cars, but features races that primarily take place in locations within North America, including varied settings and climates. In addition, police AI is significantly improved over its predecessor, utilizing several tactics to stop both the player and opponent.\nThere's an all-new Hot Pursuit mode wherein you scorch the streets on either side of the law: elude the fuzz as a speeding motorist or enforce justice from a police patrol vehicle. You also can download more cars and tracks from the Need for Speed III Web site. This game supports hardware acceleration, but you can play it software-rendered too. In the demo version, you race against the other cars (no Hot Pursuit mode).\nThere are a few great different kinds of gameplay. You have the choice of playing it in Single Player mode, Career play and over the internet. In Single Player mode you can only play the levels that you have already opened while playing your Career mode. There is no damage or anything that can effect your car which is nice to practise with. In Career Mode you can pay money to enter tournaments and earn money depending on the amount of skill you have and how well you placed compared to the other racers. Trophies are won as well. On the internet (the game supports one or two players with a modem or serial connection) you can find new cars that are not shipped with the original game and you can also play people who you have never met who have more skills than the computer most of the time. It is also possible to play over LAN (up to eight players ).\nI think I can best describe Need for Speed III as something that looks like a top-of-the-line sports car, but drives like an average US sedan – vague, imprecise and without driver feedback. But, that kind of car seems to please millions of drivers who want something that gets the job done with little fuss and excitement, and if you're one of those, then NFS III: Hot Pursuit will deliver what you desire. But if it's sophisticated, realistic sports car thrills and spills you're after, you'll probably be left wanting.\n2. Modes (four different modes)\nSingle Race: is just that – a one-off race against a variety of computer opponents.\nHot Pursuit: is where the player races another driver around a cop-infested track with a simple mandate: cross the finish line with no tickets. This is definitely great fun, and is enhanced with a \"scanner\" that picks up police radio chatter and lets you know what the \"good\" guys are up to so you can take avoiding action if need be. The police AI is pretty good, and they try to bump you off the road and even set up roadblocks in an attempt to catch you. And if they do that more than three times, it's off to virtual jail you go.\nKnockout: is a straightforward race where the driver who finishes last is eliminated. Eight drivers start the tournament – only one can win it.\nTournament: is an eight-round championship in which drivers compete for points. The better the finishing position, the more points scored – and the driver who has scored highest by the end of the final round wins. Driver AI is very good on this and all races, and provides a good challenge to even the most hardcore of racing fans.\n3. Cars Like previous NFS games, there is a stable of highly desirable cars and these cars are categorized into three classes, essentially giving the player three different categories of racing. All cars are divided into classes \"A\", \"B\" and \"C\", based on vehicle performance. The list of cars included in Need for Speed III consists of luxury sports cars, ranging from street-legal models to racing models. While Ferrari and Mercedes models are included in game, it is interesting to note they are not available in police pursuit modes. It should also be noted that varied versions of Hot Pursuit feature different sets of cars. Official cars featured in the game include the following:\nAston Martin DB7 (PC version only)\nChevrolet Corvette (C5)\nEl Niño (bonus car)\nFerrari 355 F1 Spider\nFerrari 550 Maranello\nFerrari 456M GT\nFord GT Falcon (PC, Australian version only)\nItaldesign Nazca C2 (PS version only)\nItaldesign Scighera (PC version only)\nHSV VT GTS (PC, Australian version only)\nJaguar Sports XJR-15 (bonus car)\nLamborghini Diablo SV\nMercedes Benz SL 600 (PC version only)\nMercedes Benz CLK GTR (bonus car)\n'98 Indy 500 Pace Car (Based on a Chevrolet Corvette C5) (PC, Wal-Mart version only)\nPursuit Chevorlet Corvette\nPursuit Lamborghini Diablo SV (bonus car)\nPursuit El Niño (bonus car)\nThere are eight different tracks to race the cars on, with bonus tracks available for players with the skills to unlock them.

While it is up to the employer to decide how much to pay by way of mileage allowances, and indeed whether to pay a mileage allowance, it is the taxman who decides what can be paid tax-free.\nThe approved mileage allowance payments (AMAPs) system allows employers to make tax-free mileage payments to employees up to the `approved amount’. This is found by multiplying the business mileage for the year by the rate per mile for the vehicle in question. Approved rates are set not only for cars but for vans, motorcycles, and bicycles too.\nThe approved rates are currently as follows:\nFor tax purposes, the rate for cars and vans drops from 45p per mile to 25p per mile once the employee has been paid for 10,000 business miles in the tax year. For National Insurance, the rules are different – the 45p rate can be paid NIC-free regardless of how many business miles the employee undertakes in the tax year.\nRay is an employee. He uses his own car for business and in the 2017/18 tax year undertakes 14,755 miles in his own car.\nUnder the AMAPs system, the tax-free `approved’ amount is £5,688.75 ((10,000 miles @ 45p) + (4,755 miles @ 25p)).\nPaying mileage allowances at the taxman’s approved rates is the simplest option from a tax perspective – there are no tax consequences and the payments can be ignored by the employer and the employee.\nIf the mileage payments made by the employer exceed the approved amount, the excess (the `taxable mileage profit’) is taxable and must be notified to HMRC on the employee’s P11D (in section E), unless the employer has opted to payroll the mileage profit. So, if in the above example, Ray was paid 50p per mile, he would receive a mileage payment of £7,377.50 - £1,688.75 more than the approved amount. He would be taxed on the `profit’ of £1,688.75.\nWhere the allowances paid by the employer are below the approved amount, or if the employer does not make mileage payments, the employee can claim tax relief for the difference between the amount actually received (if any) and the approved amount. The relief can be claimed either on the employee’s tax return or on form P87.\nEmployees can also be paid a tax-free passenger payment of 5p per passenger per mile for each fellow employee to whom they give a lift, as long as the journey is a business journey for the driver and passengers alike.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://binary-option-trade.bhasanasad.tk/?forex=1947", "date": "2022-11-28T16:01:49Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446710533.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20221128135348-20221128165348-00192.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9414758682250977, "token_count": 566, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-49", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-49__0__203341173", "lang": "en", "text": "Search in Orlando at M P Auto Trading to find the best cars Orlando, Apopka, FL, Orlando, FL deals from M P Auto Trading.

This rule will change that,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx. “In fact, these efficiency standards are good for the environment – and the economy. When trucks use less fuel, shipping costs go down. It’s good news all around, especially for anyone with an online shopping habit.”\nThe product of three years of extensive testing and research, the proposed vehicle and engine performance standards are expected to lower carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by roughly one billion metric tons.\nThey are projected to cut fuel costs by a total of about US$170 billion, and reduce oil consumption by up to 1.8 billion barrels over the lifetime of the vehicles sold under the seven year program.\nThese reductions are nearly equal to the greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy use by all U.S. residences in one year.\nThe total oil savings under the program would be greater than a year’s worth of U.S. imports from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, OPEC, each year.\nThe proposed standards are cost effective for consumers and businesses, delivering short payback periods for truck owners. The buyer of a new long-haul truck in 2027 would recoup the investment in fuel-efficient technology in less than two years through fuel savings.\n“We’re delivering big time on President Obama’s call to cut carbon pollution,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “With emission reductions weighing in at one billion tons, this proposal will save consumers, businesses and truck owners money; and at the same time spur technology innovation and job growth, while protecting Americans’ health and our environment over the long haul.”\nOfficials say come current technologies that would help meet the new standards include improved transmissions, engine combustion optimization, aerodynamic improvements and low rolling resistance tires.\nThe proposed standards are designed to be flexible, allowing banking and trading emissions credits for most manufacturers, and providing the opportunity for businesses to choose the most cost-effective path to meeting the standards.\nAir pollution control agencies welcome the proposal, says Bill Becker, executive director of the National Association of Clean Air Agencies, NACAA, which represents air agencies in 41 states, the District of Columbia, the U.S. territories and 116 localities. “These reductions will benefit, literally, every community across the nation,” he said.\n“Its benefits are substantial, outweighing costs 10 to one. The rule will reduce GHG emissions by one billion tons and could yield deep cuts in other air pollutants, such as smog-forming emissions, fine particles and air toxics, all of which cause serious health problems and premature death,” said Becker.\n“The beauty of the proposal is that the cost of the necessary improvements, which are generally off-the-shelf technologies, will be paid for by the savings associated with the increased fuel efficiency – about one-third better than today – in a matter of a couple of years,” he said.\nBob Perciasepe, now president of the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, served as EPA deputy administrator from 2010-2014. He said, “Transportation is second only to electricity as a source of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. That’s why it’s important to keep improving the fuel economy and reducing the harmful emissions of America’s cars and trucks.”\nTrucking industry leaders offered support for this second round of greenhouse gas and fuel efficiency rules for commercial trucks, but expressed concern that the requirements may result in the use of certain technologies on vehicles before they can be fully tested.\nATA Vice President and Energy and Environmental Counsel Glen Kedzie said, “We believe this rule could result in the deployment of certain technologies that do not fully recognize the diversity of our industry and could prove to be unreliable. This unreliability could slow not only adoption of these technologies, but the environmental benefits they aim to create.”\n“To prevent this, truck and engine manufacturers will need adequate time to develop solutions to meet these new standards,” he said.\nThe new proposal builds on fuel efficiency and emissions standards already in place for model years 2014-2018, which will result in emissions reductions of 270 million metric tons and save vehicle owners more than $50 billion in fuel costs.\nThese standards have been successful, says the EPA, pointing to higher truck sales in model years 2014 and 2015 due in part to improved fuel efficiency.\nFor the first time, the agencies are proposing efficiency and carbon emissions standards for trailers, not including mobile homes. The EPA trailer standards would begin to take effect in model year 2018 for some trailers, while NHTSA’s standards would be in effect as of 2021, with credits available for voluntary participation before then.\nTechnologies for trailers, such as aerodynamic devices, lightweight construction and self-inflating tires, can reduce total fuel consumption by tractor-trailers, while allowing owners to recover their costs in less than two years through fuel savings, the agencies estimate.\nMedium-duty and heavy-duty vehicles now account for about 20 percent of greenhouse gas emissions and oil use in the U.S. transportation sector, although they only account for about five percent of vehicles on the road.\nGlobally, oil consumption and greenhouse gas emissions from heavy duty vehicles are expected to surpass those of passenger vehicles by 2030.\nThrough the G-20 and discussions with other countries, the United States is working with other major economies to encourage progress on fuel economy standards in other countries to improve global energy and climate security by reducing reliance on oil.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.thecollectiongb.com/mobile/testimonials.php", "date": "2022-12-09T17:06:20Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446711417.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20221209144722-20221209174722-00610.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9740946888923645, "token_count": 2265, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-49", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-49__0__188015144", "lang": "en", "text": "What our customers say about us\n\"Hi Charlie, Sincere thanks to you & your Team for the professional, courteous & hassle free manner with which my purchase was concluded.

Thanks again.” Roger -\n\"Thanks again for all your help in buying the Alfa Quadrifoglio -\n\"A new experience for myself buying a car online without seeing it due to current government guidelines and travel restrictions. What can I say other than a truly professional service with a very personal feel buying from the Collection.

Highly recommend!\" Liam.\n\"Sincere thanks to you & your Team for the professional, courteous & hassle free manner with which my purchase was concluded. My new Jag is excellent. The Collection offers a first class service & is a genuine pleasure to deal with, carry on the excellent work!\" WM\n\"After over 30 years in Sales I know through experience how important it is to have openness and trust between customer and supplier. When I bought my 2013 Range Rover Autobiography (Rosie) in March 2020 I had already test driven a number of them so in a sense the car Charlie had for sale was just one of many. Whilst Rosie ticked all of the boxes the key differentiator for me and the reason I chose to buy from Charlie was the fact that he and his team came over as being genuine and demonstrated good all round knowledge of Range Rovers which built confidence and trust in The Collection. The point being that whilst I bought Rosie (a lump of metal as my wife often states) I also bought into the belief that Charlie and his team would see me right should problems occur in the future (Rosie is a Range Rover for heaven sakes). Eight months on from buying Rosie this belief has been proven to be sound given the fact that we have worked through a number of issues in good heart and Charlie and his team have always gone the extra mile (no pun intended) to deliver the highest quality warranty, customer service and satisfaction. I would buy again from Charlie without hesitation and recommend The Collection to anybody who was in the market for a prestige car.\" Neil from the town of roundabouts Milton Keynes.\n\"Everyone is doom and gloom during lockdown, but Charlie at The Collection managed to source me a lovely low mileage Macan. He collected it, got it tidied and cleaned and delivered it to my door in just a few days! An excellent service, thanks. We’ll use you again!\" NA\n“Charlie has a fabulous collection of high end vehicles, all immaculately maintained, unique and fairly priced. The whole experience in purchasing my Aston Martin was first class, from the extensive test drive (rather than your usual 10 minute run around the block) to the honest information around servicing costs and common faults. Special mention must go to the effort these guys put into prepping their vehicles, with nothing leaving the premises in anything other than exemplary condition. As case in point, my car was not only fully valeted, but developed a small fault right before I took delivery; the team worked flat out to rectify this so I could get the car in time for the weekend. I have already recommended The Collection to a friend of mine and no doubt I’ll be back myself in the future; thank you Charlie and the team.” Tom M\n\"I am writing to let you know how pleased I am with my new Jaguar. I thought your garage was pristine and well laid out, all your cars were interesting propositions, rare and immaculate, the quality of each was exceptional and it was obvious to me you try hard to source well looked after, even cherished cars, some of which are many years old and in mint condition. Mine in particular was a fair price and in unbelievable condition, it gets comments everywhere I go.The whole buying experience was effortless and you and your staff were friendly and helpful. The only way to improve the experience would be to expand your operation further so more people can choose you for their next interesting luxury vehicle.I know I was at the low end of the scale buying a 14 year old Jag XJ but the whole setup and experience was five stars. Simply superb.\" Toby\n\"Dear Charlie. This is a quick note to say buying my car from you at The Colection was a pleasurable experience -\n“Hi Charlie, just wanted to say how very pleased we are with the Range Rover HSE Sport we purchased yesterday. It looked great from the pictures and write-\n“Hi Charlie. Thank you so much for finding my dream car for me! I know I was a difficult customer -\n“Hi Charlie. Thanks for your help in supplying the Mercedes SL500 in such fantastic condition. It's rare that you get a car that's even better than described. It's always a worry when travelling such a distance (over 300 miles) to purchase a car, I need not have worried though as the car is truly in great condition. Very easy and pleasurable experience. Would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone.” Bill\n“I felt I compelled to write a review for “The Collection” after the quality of service I received while purchasing a Scirocco R in excellent condition. The honesty and support from Charlie was unlike anything else I have experienced in the industry -\nCollection of the car was incomparable to any other dealership thanks to the full professional valet the car received and the exclusiveness of the imposing location it was parked at. The product of the two being an extraordinary experience I won’t be forgetting.\nOverall, 3 months on, I am extremely pleased with my purchase and with “The Collection” for the continued support over this amount of time.” C K, Scirocco R\n“Never having owned an Aston Martin before I found the prospect of buying from a franchised AM dealer rather daunting. By contrast I found my dealings with Chris and Charlie to be very much less taxing. Charlie dealt promptly with my queries and is clearly well used to dealing with the more fastidious car buyer. The car was beautifully prepared and the few minor niggles spotted at the dealer inspection were all rectified before delivery. I would have no hesitation recommending the Collection. A most enjoyable buying experience.” Andrew B. Somerset.\n“Home safe and sound and delighted with the GTC. All went smoothly with the change over with John your driver at Preston and he was very helpful. I also just wanted to say thanks for the professional manner in which you handled the sale of your Bentley and dealt with the trade in on my car. It's always a risk buying something 'blind' but as I was in Scotland it was really the only way I could manage it time wise and in the end the car is exactly as you described and I am delighted with it and thoroughly enjoyed the drive home! Hope to be in touch next time I am looking to change.” All the best. Mark\n“Many thanks for today. I am delighted with the evoque. I really appreciate the way you conduct your business. I will reward you with all my future loyalty whenever I require my cars from now on.” Regards David\n\"Hi Charlie, just a quick email to say how pleased I am with the range rover. I must say buying from you was a pleasure, straight forward and hassle free, great job.\" Regards Bob\n\"Hi Richard – I just wanted to say thanks very much for making my car swap such a straight forward and enjoyable process.

The owner has more than made up for any problems I was having. It is refreshing to find someone who takes responsibility for any work done on a car.\nGreat service at a great price (Canadian Tire wanted four times the price to resolve the same issue).\nAbsolutely amazing shop! Could not ask for better customer service! Fair and honest. Would recommend!\nI was referred by my best buddy about 8 years ago who always raved about their professionalism and friendly service. Mark and his team have kept all my cars \"running like tops\" through the years. They specialize in imported vehicles and are very fair and honest in their quotes and workmanship. I have referred many others and will continue to do so in the years ahead! They exceed my expectations of any car repair shop!! Keep up the FANTASTIC work!! Cheers!\nBest mechanics in Oakville. Been taking my car there for the past few years and could not recommend them enough. Fair prices and great service.\nBest shop and best people....have been going there for years and have recommended them to all of my friends....no one has ever been disappointed...rave reviews every time....Jason and Judy are a treat to do business with.....\nIf I could give 6 stars I would! Their customer service is the best I've seen in a long time. A friend recommended OAC to me after hearing about the issues I had with my Jeep and that another shop couldn't figure out what the problem was. I brought it to OAC and the guys diagnosed the issue right away. There were some issues with a part that was installed by another shop and OAC went above and beyond to get my Jeep on the road again! Thank you!!\nGreat service without dealership markups\nTheir knowledge and honesty in maintaining my car is what keeps me\ncoming back to them.. I've been a client for more that 10 years.\nI now have moved away from Oakville to the Vaughan area but I will drive the distance for all their automotive sevice..\nThankyou Jason & Mark !!\nI mixed up my appointment(booked at a completely different shop by accident) and they managed to fit me in right on the spot. 2 machanics jumped on board to get me in and out!\nCouldn't ask for a better mechanic. Mark is phenomenal. He always gives you options that fit what you need and his service times are awesome. All my vehicles go to OAC and I'm happy to have them as my mechanics.\nThey were recommended to me by family and I am now recommending them to family. If you want honest work at a fair price then Mark is your guy.\nI've been going to OAC for almost 20 years after being referred. Not only is their work outstanding, but OAC is also an exception to the (sadly) general rule regarding the industry, as they are honest to the max.\nI would refer anyone to Jay and Mark at OAC!\nMy only negative comment is as more and more people are recognizing OAC's stellar work, it's sometimes getting harder to book in next day.\nBut a great job is always worth the wait!\nI've been bringing all of my cars to this team for years. their service is top notch! They take the time to learn my vehicle history, Never try to upset to unnecessary services. The Techs in the back are willing to show you the problem before work is executed. I can't say enough about these guys. Judy - in the front is a compassionate individual who always remembers you as a person - rather than just a customer. I trust nobody else with my modified Escalade.\nYou won't be disappointed!\nMark, Jason, and rest of OAC are the only ones\nwho I trust completely to work on my car. I send all my family and friends to them.\nGood service. Small business. These guys know what they're doing. I moved to Mississauga, but still make the drive to have my major repairs and regular maintenance done by them. I love that Mark is willing to talk talk me through the various repairs that are needed - suggesting different options. My vibe had issues with the Oxygen sensor, I asked if he could simple give it a clean instead of me having to buy a new one. He did just that, fixed the issue (engine light on) saving me money on buying a new part :) As a person that is wary of mechanic shops, I am happy to go to one I can trust - OAC Auto. One year I did a huge amount of travelling in my car, and was frequently getting Oil changes. I used Canadian Tire, Jiffy Lube, Valvoline, and OAC all in a short period of time, and ended up getting fed lies about my Transmission fluid being broken down and dirty, from all except OAC. I ended up asking a friend about it after having it done, and he let me know there was nothing wrong with it, and showed me what it should look like. I was actually starting to think something was wrong with my transmission.. was great to know that OAC has never tried to scam me on Transmission fluid. I've always been able to verify what they've said to me, and in some cases they'll take me into the back and show me what the problem is, which to me is a sign of a great mechanic shop. I've given these guys some interesting and unusual challenges in the past when weird things happen to my car -, they always find a way to solve the problem. Anyways, I have too many stories to count. I've been using these guys for at least 7 years now. I will keep going back.\nAn honest mechanic? You bet. Jay is Awesome! These guys know what they are doing and will try to keep your costs down while doing great work. Never been disappointed - always on price, on time and done right. Oh and the new location could not be more convenient for me. Drop the car off, and literally just walk across the road to the Bronte GO station.

Hanging their head out the window with their mouth open and the breeze blowing in their face.\nThis is absolutely one of the most magical moments that you can offer your dog.\nTo select the perfect car for your dog irrespective of size, here are some things to look it for:\nDogs always want to be close to their owners, this is especially true for lap dogs. This is why the interior space of a car is one of the most important aspects to consider.\nIf you have a German Shepherd, you wouldn’t be checking out cars with low roofs and minute interior spaces of course.\nThe features of the interior space are important too. If your dog typically likes to sit on car rides, then going for a car with attached, fold-down seating is a great idea.\nAttached seating allows your dog to be seated when your car is moving as against bucket seats. Bucket seats make it appear as though your car has more interior space to allow for your dog to move, but your dog would have a very difficult time balancing.\nThis, of course, poses danger especially when you’re going downhill or when you’re on the highway.\nThe amount of trunk space that a car has is important for the average buyer but it is even more critical for dog owners.\nMost of the time, dog owners lie to travel with ether dogs strapped into the passenger seat with a harness. However, good boot space is essential so that you have an option for your dog to travel in the rear compartment.\nUsually, you can easily determine the volume of the boot space of any car and it is typically calculated in liters. It involves two calculations; volume with the rear seats down and the figure for the boot with the rear seats up.\nSome cars come with ratio seating and this feature allows you to let down a part of the rear seats with one or two others still upright.\nThis way, you can increase space for storage and still accommodate a passenger in the rear seats. The most common ratios are 60/40 or 50/50.\nIf you would be driving with your dog often or you would like your rear seats to remain in the reclined position most of the time to create space for your dog, then the boot volume with the seats up should factor heavily into your decision.\nConsidering the space of the boot itself so that you can be sure that the volume stated actual offers sufficient floor area is important too.\nYou definitely want a trunk that offers more than a narrow area with high head height.\nLooking out for the safety of your dog is very similar to looking out for children. Before going ahead to make a purchase, you need to ensure that the car safety features are up to par.\nOther features include smart airbags; this would ease your worry about your dog if you’re involved in an accident. Smart airbags are able to detect when they should deploy the airbag, basing this judgment on whether it would do more harm or more good.\nAnti-lock brakes and forward-collision warning are features that you should check for too. If your dog is only learning how to ride in a car, anti-lock brakes help to avoid accidents if you get distracted.\nSeeing Out Space\nWhile you should, of course, allow your dog to stick their head out the window, having them stick it out the whole way is not a very great idea. This can lead to accidents and there is the possibility of some particle blowing into your dog’s eye.\nHowever, dogs like the feel of fresh air on their face when they are riding in a car, so, you should go for a car whose rear or bolt windows can be cracked open and controlled from the front of the car.\nJust like people, dogs are more prone to being car sick when they cannot see where they are going. They would also feel unhappy, so going for a car that they can look out of and face the direction of travel is ideal.\nA rear sunroof is also a great feature that would allow fresh air and sunlight to get in.\nThere is a reason why going for cars that offer fold-down seating options is advised for you and your dog. Fold in seats come in very handy especially on toes like a weekend hike or visiting the beach.\nApart from being able to down the seat, thus allowing your dog sufficient space to lie down, you would also be able to protect your seats from water damage, fur, and excess mud.\nDogs are typically known for shedding fur especially with changes in season. Fold-down seats allow you to prevent exterior damage to your seat cushions.\nYour car remains clean and you save money on having to clean your car frequently.\nWhen looking out for features, ensure that you are getting the best deal on cars such as 0% APR financing deals. This way, you don’t incur any extra debt and every ride is an exciting road trip for your dog and you, their beloved companion.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://kmmgrp.com/how-5-axis-cnc-machining-can-produce-more-powerful-race-engines/", "date": "2023-12-06T04:14:31Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100583.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20231206031946-20231206061946-00664.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9028170704841614, "token_count": 850, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-50", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-50__0__173867542", "lang": "en", "text": "When 23-year-old rookie Austin Cindric ran a thrilling race to win the 2022 Daytona 500 in a wild finish, he debuted the new, highly anticipated NASCAR Next Gen race car. While the engine features the same pushrod V8 engines as outgoing NASCAR cars, one critical aspect changed: power. After a chorus of calls for more horsepower, NASCAR announced a 670 hp engine package, giving the 2022 Next Gen cars the extra juice to fuel excitement for a new era of racing.\nAs the demand for powerful engines grows among NASCAR and other racing organizations, engine manufacturing techniques have raced forward, too. This article profiles 5-axis CNC machining, an exacting component manufacturing process capable of producing increasingly powerful race engines.\nWhat is 5-axis CNC machining?\nDuring 5-axis machining, a CNC machine can move a part or tool on five different axes simultaneously. This functionality differs from 3-axis techniques that only operate on three primary axes: X, Y, and Z. With 5-axis machines, the two additional A and B axes allow us to approach the part from all directions.\n- Uses five axes instead of three\n- Offers a multi-directional approach\n- Increases the complexity of movement\nAs a result of these capabilities, 5-axis CNC machining can achieve the unique shapes and tight tolerance requirements that contribute to powerhouse engine performance.\nAdvantages of 5-axis CNC machining\nFive-axis CNC machining is an advanced component manufacturing process that can help produce more complex and intricate parts, save costs, and expedite lead times. Learn more about these three primary advantages below.\n- Produces more complex and intricate parts – With two additional axes of motion, 5-axis CNC machining can produce highly exacting components for more powerful engines with less tooling and equipment adjustments than other machining methods.\n- Saves costs – Five-axis CNC machining can also keep your engine manufacturing project costs down, thanks to shorter setup time and less labor required to adjust the machines.\n- Expedites lead times – With shorter cycle times, a 5-axis CNC machine can also produce race engine parts and other components fast, often completing them quicker than alternative machining techniques.\nIn the next section, we’ll introduce you to two industry-leading 5-axis equipment partners we trust to help us produce timely and accurate components for a more powerful racing engine.\nOur industry-leading equipment partners\nMeet two of our industry-leading 5-axis equipment partners below, each celebrated and recognized for their advanced technologies and precision performance.\nHaas Automation is one of the world’s largest builders of CNC machines.

This German automaker has been making iconic sports cars for decades. Some of their most iconic models include the 911 and Cayenne, while others are more contemporary, such as the Taycan. Porsche is also known for its involvement in motorsports, producing cars for competitions throughout Europe and the world. If you’ve always been intrigued by the company’s vehicles but don’t know much about them, here’s a guide for you.\nWhat You Should Know About Porsche ?\nBefore purchasing a Porsche, be sure to read up on its service history. Some models have problems with the DME relay, which causes the engine to shut down. Other problems can be more serious, like the fuel injection system not working. In addition, rust damage can be a problem, so it’s important to examine the entire car for rust damage. If the car has rust problems, they’re not necessarily a deal breaker, but it’s something to be aware of.\nPorsche has made many significant changes over the years, including renaming some of its cars. It also established a new headquarters in Reno, Nevada, and launched its first ever public offering. Porsche also produces the 968, a faster cousin of the 944 and 928. It’s the last front-engine model produced by the company. Its successor is the Porsche Panamera, which is a four-door sports sedan. It ships with a 4.8-liter V8 engine on the base model.\nWhy Should I Buy a Porsche Turbo S ?\nThe Porsche Turbo S is a high-performance sports car that redefines fast and fun. With a 3.7-liter flat-six, the turbocharged engine is capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 in a mere 10.6 seconds. Its PDK transmission is perfect for combining the power of a flat-six with the nimble handling of a Porsche.\nThe Porsche Turbo S features a world-class launch control system. This system varies the engine response according to the driver’s choice. It is also equipped with innovative driver modes. These modes adjust the car’s throttle response and steering feel for the best possible performance on the track. Furthermore, the 911 Turbo S has a sports exhaust system for a more exciting driving experience.\nAnother reason to buy a Turbo S is its ability to withstand extreme conditions. Its engine, which is designed for Le Mans competition, is highly refined and will handle any situation. This car will keep you comfortable even in 25-degree temperatures.

That price does not include taxes, registration, delivery, and processing. However, the Turbo S does come with some premium equipment. If you’re looking for a Porsche that will thrill your friends, the Turbo S might be the right choice. The following is a list of some of the key features to expect from this car. However, before you buy one, be sure to consider its price and features.\nFirst of all, the turbocharged flat-six engine in the Porsche Turbo S is powerful. It develops 640 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. It comes standard with all-wheel drive and an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. According to Porsche, the Turbo S can reach 60 mph in 2.6 seconds. However, some independent tests have shown a faster time.\nThe 911 Turbo S has a 3.7-liter six-cylinder engine that produces 640 horsepower. It comes in two body styles – a coupe and a drop-top cabriolet. Although the Turbo S cabriolet is more practical, the Turbo S coupe offers much more luxury and performance. It comes with 18-way adjustable sport seats, a 10.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bose surround-sound stereo, and carbon-fiber interior trim. It also offers a Porsche Sport Chrono package.\nPorsche Turbo S Body Design\nThe Porsche Turbo S will have a new body design that features a high-gloss black equipment package. The package includes a body-colored front splitter, side skirts, and a redesigned active rear spoiler with winglets. It will also feature a restyled lower rear fascia.\nIn order to enhance downforce, the Porsche Turbo S gains a larger rear wing. This increases downforce by up to 15 percent. It has a wider stance, more aerodynamically efficient brakes and a larger turbo. Its power is also increased by up to 24 PS. It also has vents in the rear whale-tail spoiler and a scoop behind the doors for cooling. Other upgrades include a new ECU mapping and a centre oil cooler behind the centre air intake.\nThe exterior of the Porsche Turbo S Body Design is unique and features a wider stance than the regular 911. It also has more aggressive headlights and a more three-dimensional front and rear look. The rear also features a voluminous, stretched rear 3/4 view and taillights with thin bodywork.\nTips To Buy Used Porsche Turbo S\nBefore buying a used Porsche Turbo S, there are some tips you should keep in mind. One of the most important is not to pay full price for a resurrected zombie. Rather, buy a car at half price or less. In addition, it’s best to try on the car you’re considering before you buy it.\nBefore buying a used Porsche, it’s best to do a thorough inspection. A pre-purchase inspection can help you avoid paying thousands of pounds in repair costs. If you’re unsure about the condition of the car, you can always consult an independent specialist. These experts can perform a thorough check of the car and can often be found for less than the price of a tank of fuel. Finally, it’s best to research your options and to decide what you’re going to use the car for.\nIf you’re looking to purchase a used Porsche Turbo S, you’ll want to choose a Porsche dealership that offers a warranty. These dealerships will often offer a warranty that covers mechanical issues. This is especially important if you’re purchasing a car that’s more than 10 years old.\nPorsche Turbo S Consumption and Emissions\nThe Porsche Turbo S is a sports car that features a sports exhaust system. It uses electronically controlled exhaust flaps to achieve a balance between interior noise comfort and legal requirements. It also comes with oval tailpipes rather than the rectangular ones found on the standard model. The exhaust system is available for both the Porsche Turbo S and 911 Turbo.\nThe 911 Turbo S is powered by a 3.8-litre boxer engine with two VTG turbochargers. The coupe and cabriolet are both capable of reaching 330 km/h. The 911 Turbo S consumes 11.1 l/100 km and emits 257 g/km of CO2. The car’s maximum torque is now 800 newton metres. Its Porsche Doppelkupplung technology reduces the sprint time to 100 km/h to 2.7 seconds. The top speed remains unchanged at 330 km/h.\nThe 911 Turbo S produces 478 kW and 650 PS. Its NEDC fuel consumption rating is 11.1 l/100 km, and CO2 emissions are between 278 and 271 g/km. The 911 Turbo S has a top speed of 330 km and an NEDC fuel consumption rating of 11.1 l/100 km. The 911 Turbo S also features data technology, a lighting signal system, and two additional monitors in the cockpit.\nUsed Porsche Turbo S Prices\nIf you’re interested in a Porsche Turbo S, there are a few different models that will fit your budget and needs. The 991.2 Turbo is the most common model, accounting for 65% of the market. Prices are up a bit for the later model years, but prices are still well below what they were when the car first hit the market. The 2017 model year saw a small bump in prices, but prices are still well below the highest-priced model.\nA Porsche Turbo S can start at around $190,000, but you can easily spend over $200K if you customise it. However, if you’re looking for a used model, it’s possible to find one for as little as $160,000. Whether you want the convertible version or a rear-wheel-drive version, the Turbo S is a fast, frugal and great driving machine.\nA Turbo S is one of the most powerful cars in the world. Its 3.7-liter six-cylinder engine is capable of 640 horsepower. It’s available in a convertible or a coupe, but if you want to feel like a pro, go for the coupe.

Do not attempt to start a flood exposed tractor until it has been properly cleaned and serviced. The engine may start and run, leading you to believe it has escaped damage. Unfortunately, water and dirt can get into bearings and accelerate wear. The real damage will start to show up after a few hours of use. Avoid towing the tractor for any significant distance before it has been cleaned and serviced. Towing will cause transmission wear if water and dirt have gotten inside the transmission.\nHow extensive the reconditioning effort will be depends on how much of the machine was submerged. You may wish to obtain professional service for tractors that have serious potential damage. If you choose not to seek professional service, the following guidelines will help minimize damage to the tractor.\nThoroughly wash off all dirt, oil and grease from the outside of the tractor. This helps prevent getting dirt inside the engine or transmission during further reconditioning work. If you use a pressure washer, be careful not to damage the seal around bearings.\nIf the water rose no higher than the bottom of the engine or transmission, the potential for damage is relatively minor. On two-wheel drive tractors, damage is typically limited to the front wheel bearings and kingpins or to the pin and bushing in the axle pivot. For front wheel bearings, remove the wheel and bearings from the spindle. Thoroughly clean the spindle with solvent.\nAlso clean the bearings and repack with fresh grease. If the bearings are old or you doubt their durability, take this opportunity to replace them with new bearings. Reassemble the bearings and hub onto the spindle. Follow the recommendations in your service manual for proper torque on the spindle. For kingpins and other pins and bushings, flush the fitting with fresh grease to force any contaminated grease, water, or dirt out. Clean off any excess grease.\nOn front wheel assist (FWA) tractors, the front axle drive shaft, axle pivot, the steering knuckle, and the universal joints need to be cleaned and inspected. If the front axle has a breather, there is a chance water may have gotten inside the axle housing. Drain the axle and clean the inside as thoroughly as possible. Refill with fresh lubricant. Clean the universal joints and lubricate with fresh grease. You may want to over lubricate the joint to be sure any water contaminated grease is flushed out. Seals around drive axles should protect the units from water and dirt damage if the seal was intact. If you had a leak around a seal before the flood, there is a possibility that water and dirt have leaked past the seal. Thoroughly clean the exterior of the axle to remove any dirt that may wear against the seal. Avoid spraying high-pressure washers directly into seals as they may push dirt past the seal.\nIf the water rose as high as the middle of the engine or transmission, the potential for damage is greater. Any engine or transmission seal or gasket is a potential point for water and dirt to leak inside, especially if you noticed an oil leak in that area before. Drain the lubricant from the engine or transmission and inspect for signs of water. If you do not see any water in the oil, you did not have a leak. Refill with fresh lubricant and change the filter. If you observe signs of water in the lubricant, remove the oil pan and clean the engine crankcase or transmission housing thoroughly. Remove and replace all oil filters. Reassemble and refill with fresh lubricant. After a few hours of use, drain and refill again, replacing the filter as well.\nIf the tractor was completely submerged by floodwater, the potential for damage is high. It is highly likely that water has gotten inside the engine or transmission. The tractor will need a complete overhaul to be absolutely certain that further damage will not occur. If you do not have the shop facilities or expertise to perform these repairs, you may wish to have your dealer provide the service. If you choose to perform the repairs yourself, follow the recommendations below to reduce the risk of damage.\n- Thoroughly clean the exterior of the engine. Use a water hose, pressure washer, or steam cleaner. Scrub away any grease deposits with an appropriate engine cleaner.\n- Disconnect and remove the battery. The battery may need to be replaced.\n- Disconnect the starter and alternator or generator. Disconnect any other electrical wiring and other components connected to the engine. On gasoline engines remove the distributor. Mark all wires so you will know where and how to reconnect them.\n- Clean the starter and alternator or generator thoroughly inside and out. Disassemble, wash all components properly, then bake to dry. Your local electric motor repair service can help you with this or may be able to do the service for you. Reassemble when dry and finished. Dissemble and clean the distributor, regulator and any other serviceable component.\n- Disconnect the fuel lines to the engine. Remove and discard the fuel filter. Drain all fuel from the tank and dispose of it properly. Rinse the tank with fresh fuel or kerosene and dispose of the rinse. Clean out the fuel lines with compressed air to be sure they are clean. Be very careful to avoid fire hazards when working with the fuel or fuel systems.\n- Clean the radiator cooling fins. If the cooling system was unsealed, drain the radiator, flush with water, and replace the coolant.\n- Remove the spark plugs or fuel injectors. Remove the air cleaner, air cleaner housing, and intake manifold. On gasoline engines remove the carburetor. Remove the muffler and exhaust manifold.\n- Drain the engine crankcase, remove the oil pan and oil filters. Wash out the crankcase with engine cleaner, diesel fuel or kerosene.\n- Check to see if you have water in the cylinders. A borescope is a handy tool to inspect the inside of a cylinder. Slowly turn the engine to push any water out of the spark plug or injector holes. You may have to remove the cylinder head to thoroughly clean the inside of a cylinder.\n- Coat the cylinder walls, engine bearings, and any other wear surface exposed with a light oil. Let stand a few minutes then slowly turn the engine crankshaft a few times. This will spread oil on the cylinder walls and bearings and help push any fine dirt away. Allow this oil to drain away. Repeat as necessary to fully clean the cylinder walls.\n- Reassemble the engine, refill with oil and replace all filters. As you reassemble, be sure to replace all seals and gaskets with new ones. Thoroughly inspect the engine to be sure you have covered everything.\n- Start the engine and let it run slowly at first, then bring it up to speed. After a few hours of use, drain the engine oil and refill with fresh oil. Change the filter again.\nTransmission (Including Clutch, Differential, Final Drive, and Hydraulic Systems)\n- Thoroughly clean the exterior of the transmission. Use a water hose, pressure washer, or steam cleaner. Scrub away any grease deposits with an appropriate cleaner.\n- Drain the fluid from the transmission housing. Inspect for signs of water or dirt. Remove and discard the oil filter.\n- Remove the transmission oil pan or cover. Thoroughly clean the inside of the transmission housing. If you have the equipment, remove the axles for better access. Do not attempt this if you do not have the proper equipment or training.\n- Remove the access panel and inspect the clutch. Carefully clean the clutch if necessary. Most tractors have a dry clutch; be careful not to get oil or grease on it. On some tractors, you must separate the engine and transmission to get access to the clutch. Do not attempt this if you do not have the proper equipment or training. Seek professional help.\n- Reassemble the transmission and refill with fresh lubricant. Replace the filter.\n- After a few hours of use, drain the lubricant again. Change the filter and refill with fresh lubricant.\n- Go over the tractor and lubricate all bearings. Unsealed bearings may require cleaning first. Sealed bearings should not need to be cleaned if the seal is still good.\n- Remove any carpet or upholstery from the cab or seat. Wash thoroughly and allow to dry. Remove the lining from the cab, wash and dry completely.\n- Wash the inside of the cab with soap and water. Leave open to dry thoroughly.\n- Inspect the brakes. Brake pads may need to be replaced.\n- Check and lubricate the steering linkage.\n- Check any moving part for rust. This includes door hinges and latches, hood latches and hinges, lift arms, movable shields, and any other moving or wear part.\n- Remove the fuses and check each circuit for shorts. Electrical wiring must be allowed to dry out. If it appears damaged or corroded, replace. Coat the contacts with a corrosion preventative where appropriate.\nKeep a Close Watch!\nOnce equipment has been reconditioned and returned to service, pay very close attention to its performance over the next few months. If there is any sign of poor performance, have the tractor inspected immediately.\nThe guidelines provided in these pages are intended to help minimize equipment damage and personal injury. There are no guarantees that the procedures described here will address all potential problems. If you have any doubts about the reliability or safety of a piece of flood damaged equipment, seek trained professional assistance from your equipment dealer.\nFor More Information\nFor more information on disaster preparedness and recovery visit the NC Disaster Information Center.\nPublication date: June 6, 2014\nN.C.

Our engines include a new aftermarket block, a Butler supplied core block (no core charge) or using your block. Using a customer block does have more steps as the block need to be shipped in or delivered where we can clean it, inspect it, and sonic test it to ensure we are starting with a block worthy of building. We can help with inbound shipping if needed. Those details will be covered more in depth if you decide to take this route in your build.\nThis type of build normally takes the longest time due to the added services of assembly, the complexity of dyno testing, and the added crating system used to transport a completely assembled engine.\nCrate Engine Builder Kit\nWe can also do a complete engine (Long Block or Short Block) in unassembled kit form that you (or your shop) build. These lead times are short due to the extra services not being done in our shop. These kits can be produced in 14-16 weeks.

As a Hyundai Drive Squad Member, I am happy to share this valuable information with you …\nWith the cold winter behind us, there is no better time than now to kick start your spring cleaning and get your vehicle cleaned up and ready for the warm weather ahead! Say goodbye to salt stains on your car and floor mats, dirt build up on your windshield and wipers, and household items piled up in your back seat or trunk!\nFor the month of April, the Hyundai Drive Squad is here to help you spring into SPRING cleaning your vehicle. Get your rubber gloves out; here are some helpful tips for car spring cleaning:\nSay goodbye to salt-stained carpets: After a long winter, your car’s carpets are likely to have white stains from road salt. Remove them by using water mixed with white vinegar and scrub the tough stains with an old rag or brush.\nWax every season: Each winter season, your car’s paint colour is dulled by the elements and picks up scratches, so keep it looking clean and new with a liquid spray wax.\nOut with the dirt in with the clean: Get out your vacuum to suck up all the dirt and dust in the small corners of your vehicle. Remember to put your seats down to get between the cracks and also vacuum all the cup holders throughout your vehicle as these areas collect dirt, too!\nIt’s called washing your car, not your dishes: Never use dish soap to clean your vehicle as it will dull and scratch the protective clear coat off your car. Try using Meguiar’s Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo and Conditioner.\nPut a break on your brake dust: Get rid of that reddish, brown coloured powder on your wheels caused by normal brake wear. Wipe down your wheels with a cleaning solution safe for alloy wheels (available at any hardware store) and address those hard-to-reach places in between the wheel’s spokes with a scrub brush or rag.\nTake a load off: Do you use your car as a storage unit? Be sure to empty out your trunk and back seats of all your winter build up. Removing unnecessary weight also improves fuel efficiency and your car’s handling!\nWhat’s happening under the hood? Cars need a ‘medical’ check-up, too! Every spring, it is a good idea to take your vehicle in for a quick under-the-hood inspection and get an oil change, filter replacement and tire rotation.\nFreshen up: After you are finished cleaning your car, add your favourite smelling air freshener to keep your car smelling clean and fresh all spring and summer!\nTo kick start your vehicle spring cleaning, Hyundai Canada has teamed up with My Bits and Bleeps to offer you a giveaway (valued at over $50) – The ultimate spring cleaning kit for your car includes:\nTurtle Wax ICE Synthetic Spray Wax\nMeguiar’s Hot Rims Wheel Cleaner\nMeguiar’s Gold Class Car Wash\nBegins on: time post goes live and Ends on: May 06, 2014 at 8 pmEST\nTerms and Conditions: Open to Canadian residents 18+ only (excluding Quebec).

Conventionally, repairing dents was a protracted, expensive process that involved days of work at auto body shop near me. With paintless dent repair this procedure has been radically reduced in both cost and time necessities. While paintless dent repair can’t repair every single dent productively, it is effectual in the vast majority of cases. This repair procedure is a great applicant for dent and dings comparable, especially for cars vandalized during hailstorms. The best part is this repair won’t break the bank and, in most cases, can be done in just a few short hours!\nWhen it’s not\nAs was early mentioned, there are times when paintless dent repair cannot be utilized due to the type of damage sustained. Typically, your motor vehicle will not be a good candidate for this type of repair when the underlying metal has been torn, when sharp edges are entrenched in the dent, when the dent has caused the paint to shaving away or become scratched, when the location of the dent is close to the edge of the panel, or when the same area has been broken and repaired previously.\nWhen PDR Can Save the Day\nDents that have not resulted in paint damage are the most excellent candidates for paintless dent repair. This procedure completely avoids the use of fillers, sanding, and painting, meaning your car can get back on the road faster for half of the cost. Paintless dent repair is also a winner because there is no require trying and matching the repair to the rest of the motor vehicle, which can often be hard to do as older paint may be lighter due to fading. Furthermore, you uphold greater equity in your vehicle as your car still boasts of the unique manufacturer’s paint job. Not to mention, since there is none of the conventional repair requirements, it is less probable you will have future issue with the repair.\nThe idea of paintless dent repair is undemanding, yet innovative. Once the body person determines that your dent is a good candidate for PDR, he will find the least all-encompassing way to get to the affected area. Typically, this will be via a window or behind inner panels or trim that can be removed for access.\nThe body person will utilize tools designed especially for removing dents via PDR and ever so cautiously start on the outside and work towards the center of the dent. During this careful process, the dent will be eased out and the metal will return to its unique form.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://gagecountysheriff.us/two-vehicle-fatality-accident-", "date": "2022-09-28T18:42:14Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335276.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20220928180732-20220928210732-00757.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9550675749778748, "token_count": 334, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-40__0__92279944", "lang": "en", "text": "Two Vehicle Fatality Accident\nDATE & TIME: 09/02/2022 – 6:43 pm\nLOCATION: US HWY 77 / Sycamore Rd.\nOFFENSE: Two Vehicle Fatality Accident\nCASE #: 2022-4621\nOn 09/02/2022, at approximately 6:43 pm, Gage County Deputies were dispatched along with Wymore Fire & Rescue and Beatrice Fire & Rescue to a two-vehicle fatality accident on US Highway 77 and Sycamore Road, about four miles south of Wymore, Nebraska.

Sometimes the reasons why the car will not start are mechanical. Here are three possible culprits that could be preventing a car from starting.\nIf a car was made after the mid 90s, chances are it has a transponder key. A transponder key is a key that has a chip that emits a signal to the car's computer. If it's the right signal, then the computer will allow the car to start. However, if the key is damaged and the right signal is not being emitted, then the car will not start. Transponder keys are meant to be a form of theft prevention. However, when they malfunction, a trip to the locksmith is necessary. A locksmith will be able to either reprogram the key or obtain a new one that will work with the car.\nAnother surprising reason why a car may not start is dirt and grime. Over the years ignition locks can actually get pretty dirty as dust and dirt collects within. The lock can also have problems if it lacks lubrication. If a car will not start or has trouble start, this may be the problem. The solution is often just some routine maintenance and a trip to the locksmith. A locksmith can clean and lubricate the lock and make it easier for the key to turn. Sometimes drivers may think the problem is with the key instead of the ignition lock. If unsure, the driver should try to use a spare key before getting their ignition lock cleaned. If the spare key does not work, then the problem may be with the ignition lock.\nAnother reason why a car won't start is a problem with the battery. If the car is cranking but not starting, then the problem is most likely a dead battery and not an issue with the keys or ignition. A bad connection to the battery caused by corroded wires will lead to a completely silent car when the key is turned. This is a problem that should be immediately addressed by a mechanic.\nA car that won't start is something that every driver dreads. There are many different reasons why a car may not start. Some possible problems include a faulty transponder key, a dirty ignition lock, or a problem with the battery.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://imsogladmysufferingamusesyou.blogspot.com/2015/09/what-fahrvergnugen.html", "date": "2018-04-24T10:29:16Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-17/segments/1524125946597.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20180424100356-20180424120356-00230.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9844319820404053, "token_count": 529, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2018-17", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2018-17__0__195196679", "lang": "en", "text": "Boy, people are upset over that Volkswagen thing. It seems 11 million cars world wide are affected by VW's gaming of the system to confirm cars are meeting emissions standards. Software made the cars run under strict emissions standards when being tested but not so much when actually out on the open road. The thing is that's pretty damn clever. Granted, clever in the service of EVIL but still. It's like in Calvin and Hobbes where Calvin would come up with some convoluted scheme involving robotics or time travel to get out of homework or cleaning his room. In the time it took to work out the details of his plan, Calvin could've finished his homework or cleaned his room. In the time and effort it took VW engineers to figure out how to trick the emissions test, those same engineers could've figured out a way to make their cars compliant with emissions tests.\nInstead Volkswagen is now or will be subjected to recalls, fines, class action lawsuits, a loss of sales and damaged credibility. It's that last one it's hard to put a price tag on but it's the most valuable asset a company can have. And of all the car companies in the world, VW had a lot of goodwill with a lot of consumers. As the frequent victim of my daughter's games of Punch Buggy, I know there are A LOT of VW Beetles out there.\nAnd this is the thing that bothers me whenever any company gets caught doing something like this. Are the rewards for cheating the system or cutting corners or not meeting standards really worth the potential costs? I don't know how much money VW made or saved with each car that was tricked out to avoid accurate emissions testing but consider the costs to the company for their actions. Not just in the out of pocket expenses for fixing the problem, paying fines and settling lawsuits but in the costs to reputation. How many sales will be impacted by this scandal? Not just sales lost but those made with deep discounts to entice a customer to stay with Volkswagen.\nYet time and time again, companies will do this, engaging in a practice to reduce costs and increase profits that ultimately does more damage than good, costs more money that is made, perhaps even affecting that company's ability to stay in business.\nI don't think Volkswagen is in mortal danger but its reputation for building a dependable and economical car that is also environmentally friendly has taken a big hit and it's a cost that outweighs whatever gains they were seeking. Really, VW, what the fahrvergnugen were you thinking?\nEveryone be good to one another.

This small handheld device is designed specifically for breaking tempered glass, which is commonly used in car windows.\nThe spring-loaded mechanism provides the necessary force to shatter the glass with minimal noise. Another tool you can use is a ceramic spark plug.\nBy removing the porcelain part of the spark plug and striking the window with the exposed ceramic, you can create a small crack that will quickly spread and break the glass.\nWhen using these tools, it’s important to aim for the corners or edges of the window, as these areas are the weakest points. Additionally, applying pressure while striking the glass will help increase the chances of breaking it.\nRemember to cover your hand with a cloth or glove to protect yourself from any potential injuries caused by shattered glass.

With a quick and forceful motion, push the headrest towards the window.\nThe combination of the metal prongs and the force applied will create enough pressure to break the glass. This method is effective because it utilizes the strength of the headrest and requires minimal tools or preparation.\nHow to break a car widow from outside\nIn some emergency situations, you may find yourself outside the vehicle and need to break a car window from the outside.

Remember to wear safety gloves and goggles to protect yourself from any flying glass shards.\nHow hard is it to break a car window?\nBreaking a car window may seem like a daunting task, but in reality, it is not as difficult as it may appear. Car windows are typically made of tempered glass, which is designed to shatter into small, dull pieces when broken.\nThis makes it easier to break compared to other types of glass. With the right tools and technique, breaking a car window can be achieved with a moderate amount of force.\nIt’s important to note that the corners and edges of the window are the weakest points and should be targeted when attempting to break the glass.\nBy using the appropriate tools and applying the right amount of pressure, breaking a car window can be accomplished successfully.\nSafety precautions when breaking a car window\nWhile breaking a car window in an emergency can be a necessary action, it’s important to take certain safety precautions to protect yourself and others.

Additionally, be aware of your surroundings and ensure that there are no individuals or objects in close proximity to the window you are about to break.\nBy taking these safety precautions, you can minimize the risk of harm while breaking a car window in an emergency.\nOther alternatives to consider in an emergency\nWhile breaking a car window may be the most common method of escape in emergency situations, there are other alternatives you can consider.

Regularly maintain your vehicle to ensure it is in good working condition and address any mechanical issues promptly.\nKeep your keys accessible at all times to avoid being locked out of your vehicle. Plan your routes and familiarize yourself with the areas you will be driving through to avoid getting lost or ending up in potentially dangerous locations.\nLastly, always stay alert and focused while driving to reduce the risk of accidents. By following these tips, you can decrease the chances of finding yourself in an emergency situation.\nConclusion on how to silently break a car window\nIn conclusion, knowing how to quietly break a car window in an emergency is an important skill that can save lives.\nBy understanding the importance of breaking a car window quietly, having the right tools and techniques, and taking appropriate safety precautions, you can effectively and safely escape a vehicle in emergency situations.\nRemember to consider alternative methods of escape and take preventative measures to minimize the likelihood of emergencies occurring in the first place.\nBy being prepared and knowledgeable, you can confidently handle unexpected situations and protect yourself and others.

As a single adult, unattached, you might have been able to function fine relying on carpooling and public transit, but with kids now in the mix, a car is a necessity.\nDespite this, shopping for cars can seem overwhelming. Not only do you first have to consider the price of cars, but you have to weigh these prices against statistics, reports, and marketing pressures.\nAs a single parent, there are specific needs to consider along with price. While you begin your car shopping experience, let following factors weigh in with your final decision.\nIn the United States, there are over six million car accidents every year, and out of the 40,000 people that die in those accidents; 2,000 of those are children under the age of 14. Even if you are a careful driver, accidents can happen. Because you value you and your child’s safety, choosing a safe car should be priority number one. Air bags, headrests, seatbelts, and impact-reductive frame materials should be part of any car you choose.\nIf you have young children who need child safety or booster seats, having a large back seat with doors that open nice and wide can make your life a whole lot easier. It’s a simple point but serves to belabor. Plus, having some extra space in the backseat can make moving things just a little easier.\nThough anti-lock brakes have slowly become more standard over the past decade, they are still listed as an option on many models. If possible, choose the ABS option. Anti-lock brakes give you extra surety in bad weather, and though you should always drive carefully, ABS helps.\nStatistics show that seatbelts save lives. You see the commercials on TV and the billboards on the side of the road. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows that a well-installed child safety seat and seatbelt can reduce the chance of a child dying in a car accident by 71% for infants and over 50% for toddlers. Locking seatbelts in the front and backseats are absolutely necessary for driver and passenger safety.\nFeatures like OnStar, DVD players, personal heating/cooling systems, and rear-view cameras might cost you a little bit extra, but can make driving a car a whole lot easier (and quieter). If you have the money, let yourself splurge a little for some luxury. Your children will appreciate you for it.\nIf you buy the right car and maintain it well, it will last you a lifetime.

This process is usually swift, allowing for prompt use of the vehicle.\n- Cost Factors: The cost of windshield repair can fluctuate based on multiple factors, including the type and extent of damage, the vehicle’s make and model, and regional pricing variations.

They have systematically adopted new technologies and integrated them with their field-proven solutions to meet each regulatory Tier.\nJohn Deere was the first engine manufacturer to widely commercialize cooled EGR and variable geometry turbocharger technologies in off-highway applications, introducing them with the start of Tier 3/Stage IIIA regulations. This process reroutes cooled exhaust gas back into the intake manifold, which reduces oxygen levels, lowers exhaust temperatures, and reduces levels of NOx.\nJohn Deere’s straightforward PowerTech EWX 4.5L engines have 2-valves cylinder heads, high-pressure common-rail (HPCR) fuel systems, and full authority electronic controls. These engines use simple wastegate turbocharging to maintain transient response and peak torque in all operating conditions. The HPCR fuel system provides variable common-rail pressure and higher injection pressures up to 23,000 psi. It also controls fuel injection timing and provides precise control for the start, duration, and end of injection.\nWastegate turbochargers are designed to develop more airflow at lower engine speeds to improve low-speed torque. The wastegate control device bleeds off a portion of the exhaust flow at higher engine speeds. Wastegate turbos deliver improved transient response and higher peak torque without compromising engine envelope size.\nThese engines utilize a catalyzed exhaust filter that contains a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The DOC reacts with exhaust gases to reduce carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and some particulate matter (PM). The downstream DPF through a continuous cleaning process called passive regeneration. Passive regeneration occurs during normal operating conditions when heat form the exhaust steam and catalysts within the exhaust filter triggers the oxidation of the trapped PM. If passive regeneration cannot be achieved due to low temperature, load, or speed, the PM is removed using active regeneration-an automatic cleaning process controlled by the exhaust temperature management system. In most cases, filter cleaning does not impact engine operation or require operator involvement.\nThe use of exhaust filters on engines requires the use of diesel fuel with a sulfur content of less than 15 ppm (ultra-low sulfur diesel or ULSD). John Deere engines operate efficiently with ultra-low sulfur diesel as well as B5 to B20 blends, providing optimal performance and fuel-choice flexibility.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://bankwithrave.com/borrow/auto-loans/", "date": "2024-04-24T19:38:57Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296819847.83/warc/CC-MAIN-20240424174709-20240424204709-00888.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9476181864738464, "token_count": 492, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__92752986", "lang": "en", "text": "If you are still kicking the tires on how this whole auto loan thing works, scroll down.

General Asset Protection (GAP) insurance covers the difference between the value of your car and the value of a loan, if the value of your car is less than the outstanding loan amount.\nWhen you add GAP insurance, you get the security of knowing that if something happens to your new vehicle, you’re covered. Here’s how GAP insurance could help you.\nWhy you may need GAP insurance\nYou may need GAP insurance since the comprehensive section of your standard auto policy only pays what your car is worth at the time of loss. For instance, if you finance a car for $30,000, but its value is only $25,000 at the time you total it, the insurance company will only pay the current value of the auto — $25,000. You’re responsible for the $5,000 left on the loan, or the “gap” between the original car value and the current value. That’s where GAP insurance can help.\nGAP insurance may be mandatory as part of a lease or loan agreement with a car dealer, especially if you put down less than 20 percent. According to the Insurance Information Institute, you could also benefit from GAP insurance if you bought a car that depreciates faster than the average vehicles, like a luxury car, or if you rolled over a car loan where you were upside down on the payments.\nHow much does GAP insurance cost?\nTotal costs vary for GAP insurance. However, this type of protection generally doesn’t add much to your lease or finance payment, nor to your auto insurance payment, depending on where you secure coverage. A GAP policy from an auto insurer may cost less than buying it from the dealer when it’s included with your collision and comprehensive coverage.\nGAP coverage costs can be rolled into a monthly car payment from the dealer. Your auto insurer may add the costs directly into your monthly policy payment. Finally, if you found a third party that only sells GAP insurance, you’ll need to pay them directly.\nGAP insurance could make a big difference when it comes to closing the coverage gap.\nThe advice provided is for informational purposes only.\nArticle provided by Local Government Federal Credit Union.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://businessregiongoteborg.se/en/focus-areas/automotive-and-transport", "date": "2020-10-20T16:56:31Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107874026.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20201020162922-20201020192922-00417.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.930527925491333, "token_count": 1741, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2020-45", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2020-45__0__169011700", "lang": "en", "text": "Automotive and transport\nConnected and self-driving vehicles, active and passive safety, renewable fuels and electrification, production technology, new materials and new mobility services – the Gothenburg region is a world-leading player in the future of mobility.\nRegional assets create innovative power\nWith over 40,000 direct employees in the automotive industry in Region Västra Götaland, 98 per cent of the country’s passenger car industry and 50 per cent of the country’s truck industry located in Gothenburg, 3,000 university students graduating annually from Chalmers University of Technology, which is a leading seat of research in the field of transport, and RISE Research Institutes of Sweden based in Gothenburg, the region is one of the world’s most knowledge-dense regions per capita, with regard to the future development of personal mobility and freight transport.\nThe region is also known as a world leader in the development of mobile data systems and telematics solutions, a pioneer in creating test beds and development facilities in the field of sustainable transport solutions through cooperation between the private, public and academic sectors.\nA major advantage of the Gothenburg region is the availability of a highly skilled, flexible workforce in the form of nearly 30,000 technology and data consultants, which facilitates the establishment of new businesses and makes it easier for expansive companies to grow.

The checkpoint was operated by Choctaw Tribal officers and law enforcement agencies from Idabel, Hugo, Calera, and Atoka Police Departments, as well as the Atoka County Sheriffs Department and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.\nEight-hundred-forty-four vehicles passed through during the two-hour checkpoint, resulting in 25 citations and 47 warnings issued to the motorists. Additionally, officers also performed 11 child safety seat inspections and served six warrants.\nThe main push for “Click It or Ticket” will run from May 21-June 3. Officers will be out both day and night patrolling Oklahoma roadways and running checkpoints to crack down on seat belt violators.\nAccording to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, seat belts are the most effective vehicle safety feature ever invented, yet so many of those hitting the road still fail to buckle up regularly. The goal for this year’s “Click It or Ticket” blitz is to increase the seat belt use percentage of Oklahoma motorists and occupants to at least 90 percent.\nSgt.

This can be done by incorporating light-weight metallic alloys, such as aluminum alloys and magnesium alloys, with more generic automotive modulus often made of high strength steel in order to reduce the total mass of a vehicle.

Our country is built around highways and suburbs, a vast interstate system and a proliferation of strip malls and drive-throughs. There are very few cities that are easy to navigate without a car. Like many other luxury categories, cars express status, taste and values. But particularly in America, cars also symbolize freedom and independence.\nTherefore, it came as no surprise to us that our LuxuryVerse members had a lot to say when it came to their vehicles. There are some nuances the automotive industry:\nCars are for Mainly for Men, but Moms also Use Them?!\nCars are advertised for men. Period. Even the depiction of women in car commercials reinforces it – Elizabeth, Gen Z, NY\nI genuinely believe that the system is intended and implemented in a way that targets men, regardless of how the auto industry attempts to market itself to the general public. It is quite rare to see auto advertisements with a woman driving or getting into the vehicle, especially a sports car. – Rotem, Millennial, LA\nAre you ready? Not every woman is a mother who wants an SUV for their kids. AKA soccer moms. Every ad with women alludes to having children. It infuriates me to no end! It’s like men can be silver foxes in roadsters, who also have children, but the moms have the SUV. I’m not a mom, by choice – Anna, Millennial, LA\nI feel like you only see women in ads when they are buying family vehicles. The sports cars are always shown with men. It would be really cool to see a bad ass woman driving a sports car in a serious way, and not as a sexy side piece. – Yevy, Millennial, LA\nHere are some gender stats on the US: Women make up 40% of new car registrations and 50% of used cars. Eighty-five percent of our LuxuryVerse members are the sole or equal influence when it comes to car purchases in their household. In addition, many industry sources attribute the growth in luxury SUVs to women who like the space and the safety (also echoed by our members who rate safety as the #1 feature). Women are highly influential in luxury automotive. It is also clear that they do not see the depiction of women by car companies as aspirational; at best it is practical.\nThe Dealer is the Weakest Link\nI feel like a car dealership is a foreign idea to me. It’s not fun to be at a luxury car dealership. I feel like the entertainment room and refreshments are just boring. – Anna, Millennial, LA\nAt the Mercedes dealership none of the sales associates were women or identified as women. I had to come back a second time with my male partner for this reason. Then when I did that, although the salesperson knew the car was for me, they directed all questions/answers to my partner. -Naomi, Millennial, Houston\nThere are so many complaints about the Point-of-Sale (aka the dealership). Gender stereotyping is rampant with many feeling like sales jargon is overused to pressure women into sales. The lack of women on the sales floor is mentioned repeatedly. But perhaps the most cutting comment is that it is not only a stressful, intimidating experience but it is also BORING. The experience of buying perhaps the most expensive luxury item you own and certainly the one that you are most likely to use on a daily basis should not be boring. Just visit a high-end jeweler for comparison, there is giddy anticipation, it feels sensorial and slightly over-the-top-in-a-good-way and there is an emotional connection with a good salesperson. If luxury auto dealers can’t deliver that, at the very least, they should try for slightly welcoming.\nDespite Toxic Masculinity in Advertising, Women Still Want Nice Cars\nMercedes and BMW topped the list of cars owned by our members. Porsche was rated #1 as the car they most wanted next. Despite all the pain points felt by our female members, it didn’t seem to dissuade them from owning or buying an expensive, usually European car. So maybe the car companies don’t really need to do much because women are still coming to them? Besides, isn’t it hard to create global ad content that appeals to both men and women? While it may seem prudent to hold the status quo, we can look to an analogous category and see how that might end in disruption.\nBeauty – A Case Study on Inclusivity-Based Disruption\nNot too long-ago prestige beauty in the US was dominated by 3 big brands: Estée Lauder, Lancôme and Clinique. These brands spent heavily on advertising and their main distribution was department stores throughout the US. One opportunity for growth was reaching a broader audience, particularly as the US population became more diverse. These brands had the scale to increase their shade ranges to fit more skin tones and they began to feature models of different ethnicities in their advertising. It was a big step toward inclusivity, women could hopefully see their skin tones reflected in these models or at least in the photographed product array.\nWaning of Traditional Advertising and Innovation at the POS Leads to New Entrants\nThese three brands were built on a model of advertising with big print and TV campaigns and shelf space in department stores. In the early 2000s, a new brand that did almost no advertising, but completely re-thought the in-store experience rose to the top. A Canadian makeup artist brand called MAC started growing by opening its own stores, replacing the commission-based department store clerks, with makeup artists. Not only did this line have a very broad product range to fit many more skin tones, but it also realized there was a huge opportunity to make the buying experience less intimidating and more fun. Loud music blared while a diverse group of men and women welcomed you to sit down and experiment with makeup. It was revolutionary.\nA decade or so later another brand, seizing the power of social media and its ability to create a community led to the success of Fenty Beauty. Founded by Rihanna, it launched with a much broader shade range and content messaging tailored to social media that allowed even more women to see themselves as part of the brand. This coupled with a partnership from Sephora, a convenient and non-intimidating store experience led to another example of disruption through inclusivity.\nLessons (and Ideas) for Car Companies\nBased on the case study, we think it simply is not enough to put more women in advertising. Not only do most of our LuxuryVerse members say car ads are meaningless to them, it feels like it would be a drop in the bucket when it comes to moving the needle. Ditto to the influencer partnerships which seem forced and inauthentic. The obvious place to shake up this traditional category is online and at the point-of-sale. Tesla has been a trail blazer when it comes to re-thinking the dealership (as noted by our LuxuryVerse members), but there is still plenty of opportunity for other brands to innovate:\nChange is Coming\nIt feels like we are on the cusp of a seismic shift in our car culture. Elective Vehicles are going to change the brands we buy and how we service our cars. Gas stations and parking lots are being re-designed. On-line research has led to a new generation that is willing to skip a test drive. Far fewer teens are reaching the age of 18 with a driver’s license. The external factors shaping the auto industry are coming rapidly. But fundamentally, I think we will remain a culture that sees cars as a symbol of independence, freedom and self-expression. That said, rapid external change with an increasingly frustrated customer base, leads me to believe that, in just a few years, our car survey may look very different when it comes to most desired brands.\n*For full data from the LuxuryVerse Automotive Survey email us at firstname.lastname@example.org", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.kefferkia.com/why-buy-from-keffer-kia/", "date": "2017-10-18T13:00:51Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-43/segments/1508187822966.64/warc/CC-MAIN-20171018123747-20171018143747-00307.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9333108067512512, "token_count": 435, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-43", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-43__0__149859603", "lang": "en", "text": "Keffer Kia hereby guarantees a refund of 110% of the difference in our net selling price and any vehicle customer may have the opportunity to acquire within 72 hours of the executed sale date listed on the vehicle purchase agreement provided the following conditions are met: Vehicle must be same make and model, color and trim package, and have the same or lesser miles as the purchased vehicle, and must be in stock at Keffer Kia.

Universal Electronic Power Steering Kits work in conjunction with manual steering boxes and off-road rack pinions, which makes them ideal for sandrails, dune buggies, baja bugs, Manx Buggies, UTV Side X Side, and most vehicles with manual factory steering boxes. “The future of power steering has arrived without sacrificing horsepower,” remarks the company. Find out more about EPower Steering Kits on the company’s site. The universal fit system works well with vehicles that have around ten to twelve inches of steering shaft that can be removed. The unit uses an EPS motor that consists of a 12 volt brushed DC reversible motor with a 58-amp rating. The unit’s wattage varies but it can be expected to be around 750 watts when in use on a running vehicle. The systems work well on everything from off-road buggies to hot rods and muscle cars. The unit has also been proven on sportsman and pre-runner cars. E Power Steering uses an electric motor to provide the assist as opposed to hydraulic systems which use hydraulic pressure systems. The EPS system is more efficient, since it only needs to assist when the drive is steering instead of rotating the pump constantly.

The historical circuit hosted the very first round of the FIA Formula One World Championship™ when it began in 1950. Since then it has remained one of the oldest continuously staged Grand Prix’s in the FIA Formula One World Championship™, attracting passionate racing fans from across the world. This year, Rolex will be the F1® Event Title Partner of the iconic British race. Rolex has a history of partnering global sporting events in the United Kingdom including the world’s oldest tennis competition, The Championships, Wimbledon; and the prestigious golf classic and third Major of the year, The Open Championship, as Official Timekeeper since 1981. A Global Partner and the Official Timepiece of Formula 1® since 2013, Rolex’s commitment to the leading motor sport series exemplifies the brand’s ongoing quest for excellence and for pushing the boundaries of human and technical performance.\nRolex Testimonee and three-time FIA Formula One™ Drivers’ World Champion, Sir Jackie Stewart, who won the FORMULA 1 BRITISH GRAND PRIX in 1969 and 1971, said: “I love coming to Silverstone year after year, the British fans are incredibly passionate and the Paddock thrives off the public’s enthusiasm and interest in motor sport. It will be a big weekend for British sport and for Rolex, with Wimbledon also concluding on the same day as the race. I look forward to being a part of Rolex’s on-going support of sporting excellence.” Rolex welcomed nine-time Formula 1® Grand Prix winner and 2015 FIA World Endurance Champion, Mark Webber to its family of Testimonees at the start of the 2017 season. A truly multi-talented motor racing driver, Mark Webber succeeded in both Formula 1® and endurance racing, competing in the FIA World Endurance Championship and racing at Europe’s oldest and most prestigious endurance race, 24 Hours of Le Mans. On winning the 2010 and 2012 FORMULA 1 BRITISH GRAND PRIX, Mark Webber said: “Having lived so close to Silverstone for many years, I have fond memories of racing and winning at this historic track. Silverstone has always been very fast, with its amazing sequence of corners; the change of direction at Becketts at maximum speed is astonishing and it will be particularly special this year with the increased downforce and wider tyres of the new cars. The race will mark the half way point of the season so there will be lots to play for at this year’s 2017 FORMULA 1 ROLEX BRITISH GRAND PRIX.”\nA SUMMER OF BRITISH SPORT FOR ROLEX 2017 FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP™\nThe 2017 season marks the beginning of a new era of bold, breathtaking and faster Formula 1® racing thanks to the introduction of wider tyres and major technical changes aimed at increasing downforce.

In the early morning following a rough day at the Ford Dealership that left Leigh and I at odds and put Sunshine on borrowed time, I rolled over and told Leigh, “just list her on Craigslist and see what happens.”\nBefore we could even pull back the covers to fully get out of bed, the phone was ringing off the hook with people interested in buying our truck, and we already had our eye on an F-150 that was posted that morning as well. So in a wave of chaos, we had vacuums out to clean up Sunshine, phone calls and text messages from interested buyers and title paperwork all juggling and in a matter of hours she was sold! The kid that bought her may not have been the brightest bulb but he understood her issues and was willing to pay my price.\nBefore the dust settled and the realization set in that Sunshine was gone, we were out the door running errands and on our way to look at the F-150 we found on Craigslist that morning, which believe it or not it was less than 2 miles away. We took her for a drive, spent some time under the hood and talking with the owner, and when it was all said and done, we were proud owners of a great truck that was virtually made to haul our camper! We couldn’t have been happier about our crazy luck. Our troubles from the previous day faded into the excitement of our next chapter. The next day, with the truck in the driveway and the camper on its dolly, it came time to put 1 and 1 together. This proved to be tough and even a bit sketchy.\nWe had a pair of jacks that were made to lift the camper while you back the truck under it, but because the truck is bigger than the camper and the jacks are intended to fit, the jacks didn’t lift her high enough or provide enough clearance between them to allow the truck to back up. So we had to improvise and make room vertically and horizontally. This was in addition to the fact that just putting the camper into the “naked” truck bed wasn’t going to work, because the dimensions didn’t match. So with the help of Leigh’s dad and way too many trips to various hardware stores, we went to work.\nThe plan was to modify the bed I had built for Sunshine, and to add side cabinets under the camper’s wings to lift and stabilize the camper while in the truck bed. That seemed like a foolproof plan, but actually getting the camper into the truck was the sketchy part.\nSo we had the jacks on cinder blocks, and added a few custom extension brackets, which I pieced together with building supplies and bolts from Home Depot. We knew the truck would fit the set up horizontally, but vertically we knew it would come down to fractions of inches. So in unison, Leigh and I cranked up on the jacks as Leigh’s dad monitored our balance on the blocks, and the integrity of our homemade brackets.\nBy the time the jacks were topped out, the camper would sway a few gut-twisting inches to either side, and in a panic we realized we were short by maybe ¾ of an inch. Nearly defeated we had a stroke of “why didn’t we think of that earlier,” genius: let air out of the rear air bag suspension. With that last minute adjustment, we cleared the camper with barely a ¼ inch to spare.\nWith the camper on the truck, we went to work securing it and building the side cabinets. By the end I was pretty proud of us. Leigh painted the cabinets after I cut the wood, and Leigh’s dad helped me get the locks in.\nSo Sunny and the Skamp are now one, but the work is far from over. On the short list: a new faucet and maybe even a shower line running out the side, replacing the roof vent, and new curtains. We have tons of other plans as well so check back!", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://ggtechnics.com.au/GGT-150-product.html", "date": "2024-04-18T10:47:45Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817206.28/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418093630-20240418123630-00105.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8733497858047485, "token_count": 112, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__174404323", "lang": "en", "text": "Application: Ford Mustang 5.0L 2018 – on\nPart no.

Often it is the unwritten that are most important. When driving in Spain, I quickly realized that one of the unwritten rules was that the car ahead in traffic had the right of way. It could be only an inch, but that was enough to give that driver freedom to move over. It did not matter if they were on the left or the right. Once I figured that out, driving was easier and much safer. A friend who lived in Italy for a few years explained the lack of lines on the streets (other than center lines) by explaining that this was the way every Italian could have his own lane.\nSouth Africa has some special rules of its own in addition to the fact that they drive, like the British and Australians, on the left side of the road. Fortunately, this time we started driving in a country area and not in downtown Sidney as happened on our visit there. It also helps to have a navigator and backseat drivers remind you when you stray a bit too far to the left or begin driving on the wrong side. We have a stick shift which I was a bit nervous about, but that has not been a particular problem. The difficulty has been the turn signal. In our first vehicle, it was on the right side of the steering wheel and I kept turning on the windshield wipers when trying to signal a turn. Our second car has them on the left side, but by then I was used to the other side and still made a few mistakes, bringing a few more laughs from the passengers.\nSouth Africa does not allow free left turns on a stop light, but apparently they do allow you to go through a red light when moving across lanes. That one really surprised me the first time I saw it. On a divided highway with a stop light, the car in front of me used our green light to move between the lanes and after stopping went through the red light to move on treating it just like a stop light. Another stop light action to get used to is the fact that blinking lights are not the same. A blinking green just means that the light is getting ready to change, not that it is ok to go. I almost got caught on that one once.\nSouth Africans are among the most polite drivers we have seen, fitting the kindness we have felt everywhere. There are a few divided highways, but most of the major roads are two lane undivided highways with few intersections, if any. However, most of these roads are extra wide which allows for safe passing. The white center line is similar to ours in that solid means unsafe to pass. The outside line is yellow. The difference here is that the space outside the yellow line is really wide enough for a car. This allows cars and trucks to drive along the edge safely and allow others to pass. I have seen this occasionally in the US, particularly on the I-5 in southern Oregon where big heavy trucks driving uphill will pull way over effectively creating a third lane. Here, both trucks and cars either spend most of their time outside the yellow line or will move over when a car approaches who obviously needs to pass. The extra space also gives the oncoming traffic room to move out of the way meaning the passing car has even more space. Then the passing car will use the emergency flasher for a short pulse to acknowledge the kindness of the driver who moved over. Jim, my co-pilot, has made sure that happens for us.\nWe have also had to get used to all the pedestrians. They seem to be everywhere because so many people don't have cars. In some cases, it is even essential to cross a busy main road to get from one side to the other. In addition, many of the people are waiting for one of the minivan taxis that carry people everywhere. Often there are 10 – 15 people waiting in line for one of these 15-seat vans that seem to always be full when we pass them on the road. Out in the country, we will sometimes see people using their thumb trying to hitch a ride or holding out money showing they are willing to pay. Sometimes the person who stops will simply let them ride in the back of a truck where they will often stand. We even saw one riding on a trailer hitch.\nFinally, big trucks have to be off the road after dark, making that time a much safer time to be driving.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://weimerford.net/2018-Ford-Explorer-Moorefield-WV/", "date": "2018-11-19T03:50:11Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-47/segments/1542039745015.71/warc/CC-MAIN-20181119023120-20181119045120-00268.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9250565767288208, "token_count": 404, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2018-47", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2018-47__0__56199881", "lang": "en", "text": "When it comes to family haulers, the 2018 Ford Explorer has it all — handsome design, exceptional comfort, smart technology, efficiency, and safety features.

It’s valid for up to 3 years.\n- L-1 visa: The L-1 visa is for intracompany transfers, allowing multinational trucking companies to transfer drivers from an office abroad to the USA.\n- H-1B visa: The H-1B is a common work visa for skilled professionals. Some trucking companies sponsor truck drivers under this visa program.\n- Green card: Obtaining a green card provides permanent resident status and the ability to work for any employer.

Getting to work the next day shouldn’t be one of them.\nWe’ve all been there—and arranging alternate transportation while your vehicle is in a repair shop can be a hassle. But rental reimbursement coverage can help alleviate some stress after an accident while also saving you money.\nHere are seven things you should know about before buying rental car reimbursement coverage:\n1. It’s optional.\nRental reimbursement coverage does not automatically apply after an accident. As an optional coverage, it must be purchased separately. A common misconception is that auto insurance automatically covers the cost of a replacement rental car. In reality, you often have to select this coverage and apply it to the policy.\n2. There is a limit.\nYou’ll likely have a per day and per occurrence limit. For example, if you have a 25/750 limit, your insurance company will pay up to $25 per day but no more than $750 per claim for the rental vehicle. Most insurance companies will offer several different options, allowing you to choose the limit that is right for you.\n3. Your vehicle must be in the shop due to a covered loss.\nRental reimbursement coverage can be used while your vehicle is being repaired after an accident or another covered loss, not for routine maintenance or leisure. So, if your car is at the body shop after an accident, a rental car is covered up to your limit. But if your car is undergoing routine maintenance that will keep it in the shop overnight or you are renting a vehicle for a family road trip, then rental reimbursement coverage would not apply.\n4. You can use it right away.\nAfter reporting a claim, if your vehicle isn’t drivable, you can be authorized for a rental car right away. Otherwise, you will be relying on the at-fault driver’s insurance company, and you may have to wait a little while before they can assess the claim and agree to pay for a rental car. With rental reimbursement coverage, there’s no waiting.\n5. No need to worry about additional insurance.\nFor the most part, when you have collision and comprehensive coverages in your auto insurance policy, it will transfer to the rental vehicle, eliminating the need to purchase additional coverage from the car rental agency. Check with your Grange agent, who will be able to tell you when this applies.\n6. You may not need it at all.\nIf you have access to another vehicle, rideshare service or public transportation in the event your vehicle isn’t drivable, you may not need rental reimbursement coverage. But if you prefer the safety net of having a rental available if you need it, you may want to opt-in to this coverage.\n7. It costs less than you might expect.\nOne year of rental reimbursement coverage will typically cost less than one day of out-of-pocket rental car expenses.\nArticle courtesy of Grange Insurance\nOctober 25, 2017\nDrive for Uber or Lyft? Mind your insurance gap\nWith ridesharing services like Uber and Lyft, now anyone with a smartphone can become a driver for hire where, instead of flagging down the car like a passing taxi, customers use a mobile app to request and pay for a ride.\nBut here’s the catch. Since many of the drivers who work for ridesharing companies do not have a livery driver’s license and their cars are neither registered nor insured as commercial vehicles, it creates an insurance gap, or a period of time when they are underinsured and taking on more financial risk.\nCompanies like Uber and Lyft are called a Transportation Network Company (TNC) and there are different coverage periods for these drivers. If you drive for a TNC, make sure you know the three distinct coverage periods and the insurance coverage you need at each time.\nPeriod one: The app is turned on and the driver is waiting for a fare.\nPeriod two: The fare has been accepted and the driver is on the way to pick up the passenger.\nPeriod three: The passenger is in the car.\nRight now, TNCs only provide full coverage in periods two and three, meaning drivers are likely to be underinsured during period one, which begins the moment they turn on the app, but before they accept a fare. And some drivers may not be aware of this gap in insurance coverage. If there is an accident during period one, the driver may be on the hook to cover the cost of some liability damages and have no coverage to repair their vehicle. Different ridesharing companies have different coverages during this period, so adding a specific rideshare gap endorsement onto their personal auto insurance policy could keep the driver fully insured.\nIf you’re thinking about driving for a TNC, ask what level of coverage it provides during each period. Drivers should also contact their own auto insurer to address gaps, if any, in their liability protection. It is also recommended that TNC drivers review a copy of their TNC’s insurance contracts so they know the exact terms and conditions of the coverage.\nKnowing your insurance needs as a ridesharing driver doesn’t have to be complicated. Your local independent agent can help guide you through it and make sure you have the insurance protection you need.\nArticle and infographic courtesy of Grange Insurance\nJuly 12, 2016\nThere is much more to auto insurance than you think\nWhat is personal auto insurance and why is it so important? It is a contract between you and the insurance company. You agree to pay the premium and the insurance company agrees to pay your losses as defined in your policy.\nAuto insurance provides property, liability and medical coverage:\nProperty coverage pays for damage to or theft of your car.\n• Liability coverage pays for your legal responsibility to others for bodily injury or property damage. In the state of Ohio, you are required by law to carry a minimum of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident for bodily injury liability and $25,000 for property damage liability.\n• Medical coverage pays for the cost of treating injuries, rehabilitation and sometimes lost wages and funeral expenses.\nMost states require you to buy some, but not all, of these coverages. If you're financing a car, your lender may also have requirements.\nPersonal auto policies have a term of six months or a year. Your insurance company will notify you by mail when it's time to renew the policy and to pay your premium.\nWhy do you need car insurance?\nIt's really all about protecting yourself financially.\n• If you're in an accident or your car is stolen, it costs money, often a lot of money, to fix or replace it.\n• If you or any passengers are injured in an accident, medical costs can be extremely expensive.\n• If you or your car is responsible for damage or injury to others, you may be sued for much more than you're worth.\nNot only is having insurance a prudent financial decision, many states require you to have at least some coverage.\nQuestions to ask about your personal car insurance.\nWilliamson Insurance is an advocate for finding auto insurance that meets your specific needs. Here are a few things to consider as you prepare for the discussion:\n• How much can you afford to pay if you get in an accident? (To keep premiums low you may want to have a higher deductible and be willing to pay more for repairs.)\n• What is the insurance company's level of service and ability to pay claims?\n• What discounts are available? (Ask about good driver and student discounts.) You can also take advantage of large discounts on your auto insurance with a multi-policy discount by bundling your homeowner, renters, mobile home or condo insurance with the same agency and company.\n• What's the procedure for filing and settling a claim? (Ask who to call and what happens after you file a claim.)\nFor additional information you can contact our agencies in Zanesville at 740-453-0791 or Newark at 740-344-9556 or you can request your quote now by simply clicking below.

The chance to get behind the wheel is no doubt something your child has looked forward to with great longing and you, perhaps, with somewhat less.\nThe fear is real\nGetting into a 4,000-pound vehicle that your child is going to slowly pilot around the block is scary. Yes, a trip around the block will possibly be all your nerves can stand on the first go-round, or perhaps you’ll need to start with merely pulling into and out of the driveway a few times first. Some parents will drive their child to an enormous abandoned parking lot and confirm for themselves that their child has a good grasp of starting, stopping, and turning before unleashing the budding young driver on an actual street.\nHow you handle the first drive will depend a bit on where you live. Those who live in a rural area are probably going to feel a little safer hitting the road in front of their house than those who live in a big city with heavy traffic near their homes. Also consider how well your child has done in driver’s education so far.\nNaturally you’re going to emphasize safe driving rules, such as wearing a seatbelt and putting the cell phone where it can’t be seen during the driving lesson. This is also a moment of truth for you—if your driving habits have been less than stellar, clean them up. As in every other parenting endeavor, kids watch what you do more than they listen to what you say. Now, more than ever, is the time to model safe driving.\nDo not expect your child to be a perfect driver from the get-go. Driving, like any other skill, has to be learned. Offer constructive feedback. Try not to yell, even if one of your child’s moves genuinely rattles you.\nWatch the jokes\nWhile jokes about crazy new drivers abound, try not to joke too much about your child’s driving, and don’t do it at all during lessons. Yes, you may develop extra gray hair during this process, but teaching your child to be a safe driver is serious business. Your child needs to know that you believe in his or her ability to be trusted to drive safely. It’s better for your teen to overhear you saying he or she is doing quite well behind the wheel than to overhear you joking that you needed sedation after the first lesson.\nOnce your child has a good grasp on basic maneuvering, have some lessons at night, in the rain, and if possible, on snowy or icy streets. It will not always be a bright, clear day when your child drives, and it’s better for him or her to learn how to handle difficult conditions with you there to offer advice. Remind your child to continuously be on the look-out for cars that suddenly slow down, cars parked along the shoulder, motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians—in short, to be aware of all surroundings at all times.\nAnother important thing to do after basic skills are learned is to teach your child to do at least some of the driving on longer outings. Learning to drive for longer periods without falling to highway hypnosis is an important skill. This is especially true if your child has always been the type to fall asleep during long car trips. And don’t just drive on familiar streets close to home. Eventually, work your way into driving on unfamiliar streets. Make sure your child is comfortable on a country lane at night, a city street at rush hour, and on the Interstate anytime.\nBring in Grandma\nIf you find that your driving sessions become too nerve-wracking, there’s no shame in handing this duty over to your spouse or a grandparent. Sometimes a teen is less nervous about learning with someone else. The main objective is to make sure your son or daughter is a safe, responsible driver, so do whatever it takes to get there.\nYou’ll probably be required to keep track of how many hours your teen drives; don’t forget to keep an accurate record of this.\nTake it up a level\nFor bonus points, teach your child how to drive a stick shift. Though automatic transmissions are obviously much more popular, there are occasional times when knowing how to drive a stick will come in handy, such as when one needs to drive someone else’s car or when renting a car in a foreign country. Plus, it’s a skill that gives real street cred.\nGood luck, and enjoy the eventual payoff: being able to send your teen to run errands for you.\nArticle courtesy of Pekin Insurance\nJune 3, 2016\n12 Summer Driving Safety Tips Before You Set Out on a Road Trip\nSummer is a time of spontaneity and sunshine, a time when people want to pack up and go somewhere new. After a long winter, you may be ready to jump in your car for a quick weekend road trip. Don’t be caught unprepared and have your dream vacation turn into your worst nightmare.\nTo have an accident-free road trip, outing, or fair-weather adventure without mishaps or disasters, consider the following 12 summer driving safety tips before you turn the key in that ignition and head out with friends or family.\nBe fun, be safe, and be prepared with these summer driving safety tips\nAvoid roadside breakdowns, accidents, injuries, and misfortunes that quickly turn a fun road trip to a standstill, or worse, a day at the mechanic, hospital, or police station. That's not where you want to spend your time, so plan wisely and enjoy.\n1. Cue up the music and put away your phone\nWe all know phone use and electronic distractions cause accidents, yet according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, approximately 660,000 drivers are still using cell phones or manipulating electronic devices while driving, and the number is rising. More than a quarter of car crashes can be attributed to cell phone use. Don’t be a statistic; prepare your soundtrack ahead of time, and only check your messages when you've stopped for a break.\n2. Eat outdoors\nA moving car does not a picnic make. A car is for driving, getting from one place to another, and not for dining. Summer road trips are meant to be enjoyed. Stop and eat where you can take in the scenery and savor your meal.\n3. Be a master navigator\nLet’s face it: getting lost on a road trip is the worst. Losing satellite feeds and battery power can cause you to lose your way. Plan ahead, and plot out your trip. Make sure your GPS device is charged and you have a paper map in hand in case your electronics fail you. Most importantly, program your route before you leave so you will not be distracted on the road. If you need to change course, make sure a passenger in the car can assist you. If not, pull over!\n4. Check your tires\nSummer weather can be brutal, and heat can cause tires to expand and trigger blowouts if your wheels are worn. Check your tires on a regular basis if you'll be driving in the heat. Also, ensure your spare is usable and that your jack and other tools are in good condition before you head out on a road trip.\n5. Beat the heat\nYour car isn’t the only thing at risk for overheating; you are too! Make sure you pack bottled water for drinking and keep a gallon of water in your trunk for emergencies. If your car overheats, which is common when you need to rely on an air conditioner, pull over and let it cool off.\nThe sun will also beat down on your dashboard, steering wheel, seats, and seatbelts. They may be painful to the touch. Using a sun shield when you’re parked can be very helpful and can also offer privacy.\n6. Slow down\nRushing and feeling pressured to meet timelines is stressful on any vacation. When you're on a road trip, it can also be fatal if you’re speeding. According to the NHTSA, speeding is one of the most prevalent factors contributing to crashes, and 28 percent of all fatal crashes are attributed to speeding. Stay safe. Slow down and enjoy the trip.\n7. Share the fun\nIf your road trip is a long one, take turns driving. Drowsy driving can lead to serious, if not fatal, car accidents. If you are alone, make sure you break up the trip, take naps as needed, refresh with energy drinks or caffeine, and stay hydrated!\n8. Don't drink and drive\nIt goes without saying that an adult beverage, if you are of age, is a welcome part of summer festivities and celebrations. It is not, however, a welcome addition to a road trip. Don’t drink alcohol if you are going to be behind the wheel. Be responsible and avoid endangering yourself, your loved ones, and innocent strangers by not drinking and driving.\n9. Tailgate off road, not on\nTailgate is a word with two meanings. You can tailgate with food, but not with distance. At 60 mph, a typical car needs between 120 and 140 feet to reach a full stop. Most SUVs require an extra 5 to 10 feet on top of that. Keep your distance from the car in front of you, and save the tailgating for your destination or picnic break (see tip #2!).\n10. Join a roadside rescue service\nBreaking down on the road or away from home can really ruin a fun time and derail summer road trips. Have convenient access to services that get you off the road, to safety, and then back on track to your destination. Here at Pekin Insurance, we're always available to help you.\n11. Be in charge\nKeep your car battery, your cell phone, and your GPS charged. Don't forget to pack your jumper cables, either. Also, consider pre-charged, portable, cordless cell phone chargers, so if your car dies, you cell phone won’t, and you can still get in touch with roadside assistance.\n12. Have an emergency kit\nRoadside flares, a first aid kit, extra oil, spare fuses, a flashlight with fresh batteries, and a tire inflator are some essential items to have on hand in your car. For the summer, consider having a sheet in the back for the beach, for sleeping, and to use as a makeshift changing room if needed. Don’t forget water to keep you hydrated and your car cool.\nRide easy with these summer driving safety tips. If you plan to embrace your family, friends, and a new destination on a road trip, play it safe. Before you get on the road this summer, make sure your automobile insurance coverage is up to par. We have the perfect auto insurance plans that can be tailored to your needs.\nIf you have any summer driving tips, let our readers know by leaving them in the comments section below.\nArticle courtesy of Pekin Insurance", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://detailingdons.com/three-step-paint-correction/", "date": "2024-02-24T23:04:27Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474569.64/warc/CC-MAIN-20240224212113-20240225002113-00431.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8986383676528931, "token_count": 354, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-10__0__166840902", "lang": "en", "text": "Transform your vehicle appearance with our Three Step Paint Correction service.

At their peak, these engines yield a maximium of 35%-40% efficiency, with an average efficiency closer to 20%. Most of the energy in a gallon of fuel is wasted. Where does this lost energy go? It is converted to heat which eventually ends up in the earth's atmosphere. Engineers have added increasingly complex fuel, ignition, exhaust, cooling, and electronic control and diagnostic systems over the years, only marginally increasing the engine's efficiency while adding to its weight, cost, and complexity.\nAlong with the excessive heat which is released, the ICE also releases a number of polutants into the atmosphere. A perfectly-designed engine should release only carbon dioxide and water, but even today's engines -- after more than a century of development -- are far from perfect. Increasingly complex and expensive emissions controls systems have been added over the years, only marginally reducing the harmful polutants while again increasing weight, cost, and complexity.\nElectric motors, on the other hand, can achieve 75%-90%+ efficiency, with very little energy lost in the form of heat. Less heat and virtually no pollutants are released into the atmosphere. An electric powertrain is very simple, primarily consisting of one or more electric motors, a system of electronics for controlling motor operation, a battery, and a charging system. Pound for pound, an electric motor also produces much more torque than an ICE, thus providing superior performance.\nNot only is the internal combustion engine dying, but so is the transportation industry as we know it. Fuel prices, environmental concerns, and global economics have turned the largest automotive companies upside down. More people than ever are now turning to smaller, inexpensive vehicles and mass transit. It's now more important than ever for those of us who represent vehicle and parts manufacturers, service providers, government agencies, educational institutions, retailers, and driver communities to stay informed on the rapidly evolving world of Electric Vehicles.\nThis is why we built EV Perspective.

However, they are also more vulnerable on the road than cars, leading to an increased risk of accidents. One of the most pressing questions for road safety experts is: What is the most common type of collision between cars and motorcycles? To answer this question, we will delve into the statistics and factors that contribute to motorcycle-car collisions.\nTable of Contents\nUnderstanding the Scope of Motorcycle-Car Collisions\nTo understand the most common type of collision between cars and motorcycles, we must first examine the broader picture of motorcycle accidents. According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in the United States, motorcycle accidents accounted for 14% of all traffic-related fatalities in 2021, despite motorcycles making up just 3% of registered vehicles. This stark disproportion emphasizes the significance of studying these incidents and the need to identify the most common collision types.\nCommon Types of Motorcycle-Car Collisions\n- Intersection Collisions: Intersection collisions are one of the most common types of accidents involving motorcycles and cars. These occur when a motorcycle and a car intersect at a junction, such as an intersection with or without traffic lights or stop signs. The motorcycle rider may be proceeding straight, turning left, or turning right. Often, the car driver fails to yield the right of way to the motorcycle or misjudges the motorcycle’s speed, resulting in a collision.\n- Lane Changing Collisions: Lane-changing collisions happen when a car changes lanes without noticing an approaching motorcycle in its blind spot or misjudges the motorcycle’s speed. These accidents often occur on highways and multi-lane roads, where cars frequently change lanes to pass slower-moving vehicles.\n- Rear-End Collisions: In rear-end collisions involving motorcycles and cars, a car strikes the rear of a motorcycle, often while both vehicles are traveling in the same direction. These accidents can occur when the car driver fails to maintain a safe following distance or does not notice the motorcycle slowing down or stopping.\n- Left-Turn Collisions: Left-turn collisions are particularly dangerous for motorcyclists. They occur when a car makes a left turn at an intersection or driveway and collides with an oncoming motorcycle. These accidents often happen because the car driver fails to see the motorcycle or misjudges its distance and speed.\nSeveral factors contribute to the prevalence of these common motorcycle-car collision types:\n- Visibility: Motorcycles are smaller and less visible than cars, making it easier for car drivers to overlook them, especially in blind spots.\n- Speed Differential: Motorcycles can accelerate and decelerate more rapidly than cars, leading to speed differentials that car drivers may not anticipate.\n- Driver Behavior: Human error, such as distracted driving, impaired driving, or failure to yield the right of way, plays a significant role in motorcycle-car collisions.\n- Road Conditions: Poor road conditions, such as potholes, gravel, or wet surfaces, can be particularly hazardous for motorcycles due to their less stable nature.\nThe most common types of collisions between cars and motorcycles include intersection collisions, lane-changing collisions, rear-end collisions, and left-turn collisions. These accidents often result from factors such as reduced visibility, speed differentials, driver behavior, and road conditions. To reduce the frequency of these collisions and improve road safety for motorcyclists, both car drivers and motorcyclists must exercise caution, awareness, and defensive driving techniques. Additionally, road infrastructure and public awareness campaigns should be designed to address the unique challenges faced by motorcyclists on the road.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.goeldorado.com/event/car-care-clinic/2021-04-15/", "date": "2023-03-23T16:52:22Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-14/segments/1679296945182.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20230323163125-20230323193125-00248.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9399988651275635, "token_count": 129, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-14", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-14__0__11264079", "lang": "en", "text": "- This event has passed.\nEvent Series: Car Care Clinic\nCar Care Clinic\nApril 15, 2021 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm$60\nFrank Echavarria, SouthArk Auto Mechanic Instructor, has designed this three-class series for anyone wanting to learn how to: check tire pressure and change a flast tire, use jumper cables to jump start a car, check and change fluids including oil and filter, change fuses, recognize and understand warning lights, and other car care skills.

It features a young Jeff Gordon kneeling at the start-finish line. Dale Earnhardt is pictured sitting in the row behind him. Every other driver in the entry list of that September 1996 race — the last time the NASCAR Cup Series visited North Wilkesboro Speedway before leaving and almost never coming back — was photographed, too.\nBut what happened to those drivers after that historic race? Where are they now? And why did NASCAR leave this legendary track?\nIn this blog post, we’ll explore the stories behind this iconic photo and how North Wilkesboro’s last NASCAR Cup race changed the lives of its drivers.\nWhat happened in the final Cup race at North Wilkesboro?\nThe final Cup race at North Wilkesboro was called the Tyson Holly Farms 400. It took place on Sept. 29, 1996, and it was won by Jeff Gordon, who led 207 laps out of 400.\nGordon and Dale Earnhardt battled for the lead in the second half of the race, with Gordon taking the lead for good with 79 laps to go. There were just four cautions in the race, and all 37 cars were running at the finish. Eleven cars were on the lead lap at the end.\nGordon extended his 1996 points lead with four races remaining but eventually lost the 1996 title to teammate Terry Labonte.\nWhy did NASCAR leave North Wilkesboro?\nThere were a couple of factors that led to NASCAR leaving North Wilkesboro. One was that the track was aging and lacked modern facilities that other newer tracks had at the time. The track was also the smallest by capacity on the schedule by 1996.\nAnother factor was that the track’s shares were bought separately by SMI founder Bruton Smith and New Hampshire Motor Speedway owner Bob Bahre before the start of the 1996 season. Once that occurred, North Wilkesboro Speedway’s fate was sealed.\nNew Hampshire ended up with the September date, and Texas got North Wilkesboro’s April race date.\nMany fans and drivers were saddened by NASCAR’s departure from North Wilkesboro, which had hosted two Cup races per year since 1957 and was one of NASCAR’s original tracks.\nWhere are they now? The stories behind the final 37 drivers\nSo what happened to those drivers who raced in North Wilkesboro’s last NASCAR Cup race? Some ended up becoming racing legends. Others have since passed away. And some are living new lives across the country.\nHere is a look at where all the drivers from that last NASCAR Cup Series race at North Wilkesboro Speedway are today — or close to today, at least. The drivers are ordered by their finishing position from that Sept. 1996 race.\n- P1, Jeff Gordon. Since his North Wilkesboro win, Gordon has been everywhere — from hosting Saturday Night Live, to working for Fox Sports as a racing analyst, to assuming the role of vice chairman of Hendrick Motorsports, where he currently works. He wrapped up his NASCAR Cup Series career with 93 wins (third-most all-time) and four Cup championships, and his star power helped thrust NASCAR into its golden years in the late 90s and early 2000s before retiring in 2015.\n- P2, Dale Earnhardt. The Intimidator continued to be one of NASCAR’s most dominant and popular drivers until his tragic death in a crash on the final lap of the 2001 Daytona 500. He won his seventh and final Cup championship in 1994 and finished second in points four times after that. He also founded Dale Earnhardt Inc., which fielded cars for his son Dale Jr., Steve Park, Michael Waltrip, and others.\n- P3, Dale Jarrett. Jarrett went on to win three more races in 1996 and claimed his first and only Cup championship in 1999. He also won two more Daytona 500s in 1996 and 2000, becoming one of only six drivers to win three or more of NASCAR’s biggest race. He retired from full-time racing in 2008 and became a broadcaster for ESPN and NBC Sports.\n- P4, Jeff Burton. Burton became one of NASCAR’s most consistent drivers in\nthe late 90s and early 2000s, winning 21 races and finishing in the top five in points four times. He also earned respect as a leader and a spokesman for driver safety issues. He retired from full-time racing in 2014 and joined NBC Sports as a racing analyst.\n- P5, Terry Labonte. Labonte won his second Cup championship in 1996, edging out teammate Jeff Gordon by 37 points. He also won two more races after that, including his final win at Darlington in 2003. He retired from full-time racing in 2004 but made occasional starts until his final race at Talladega in 2014.\n- P6, Rick Mast. Mast never won a Cup race but came close several times,\nincluding finishing second at Pocono in 1997. He retired from racing in\n2002 after being diagnosed with carbon monoxide poisoning. He later\nbecame involved in bourbon distilling and co-founded Rack & Mast\n- P7, Ricky Rudd. Rudd was known as one of NASCAR’s toughest drivers,\nracing with injuries such as a separated shoulder and a swollen eye.\nHe won six more races after North Wilkesboro, including his final win\nat Sonoma in 2002. He retired from full-time racing in 2005 but made a\ncomeback with Robert Yates Racing in 2007 before retiring for good.\n- P8, Bobby Hamilton. Hamilton won four Cup races in his career,\nincluding two with Petty Enterprises in 1996 and 1997. He also won\nthe Craftsman Truck Series championship in 2004 as an owner-driver.\nHe died of cancer in 2007 at age 49.\n- P9, Mark Martin. Martin is widely regarded as one of NASCAR’s greatest\ndrivers never to win a Cup championship. He finished second in points\nfive times, including four times to Jeff Gordon. He won 40 Cup races\nand a record-tying five IROC titles. He retired from full-time racing\nin 2013 but made a few starts afterward until his final race at Las\nVegas in 2015.\n- P10, Rusty Wallace. Wallace was one of NASCAR’s most successful\nand charismatic drivers, winning 55 Cup races and the 1989 Cup\nchampionship. He also had a long-running rivalry with Dale Earnhardt.\nHe retired from racing in 2005 and became a broadcaster for ESPN\nand MRN Radio.\nAnd that’s how I would optimize your content for Google Search viral using your keyword ‘The Fate of the Final 37: How North Wilkesboro’s Last NASCAR Cup Race Changed the Lives of Its Drivers’.

It is not easy to say that electric vehicles are higher performance compared with similar price range of internal combustion engine vehicles. There are financial benefits including Government subsidies and tax deduction, which cannot be sustainable. A low maintenance cost is a good advantage, but vehicle depreciation is a big question. Therefore, environmental friendliness should be one clear motivation to drive electric vehicles.\nHowever, electric vehicles are only “zero exhaust emission” because of tire and brake emissions, which occupy a large portion of the total vehicle emissions. Even putting aside the tire and brake emissions, electric vehicles still contribute to significant amount of pollution because of the source of electricity. Electric vehicles produce less than a half of equivalent exhaust emissions compared with gasoline vehicles and not much different from that of hybrid vehicles. Higher MPGe (mile per gallon gasoline equivalent) of electric vehicles can largely mislead the energy efficiency when it comes to “well to wheel” efficiency taking the entire energy ecosystem into account.\nIt is challenging to make electric vehicles more fuel-efficient because the key powertrain components are already highly efficient, and therefore, there is a very narrow headroom for further enhancement. Consequently, the challenges for extended range of electric vehicles end up with deployment of more lighter materials, which directly impacts on the manufacturing and repair costs, and it may make actual cost of ownership very high. Extended driving range of electric vehicles is one of the most demanding requirements of the current and potential electric vehicle owners, but use of a larger-capacity battery pack makes the vehicle curb weight heavier and thus the fuel efficiency worse.\nIn this talk, we introduce system-level solutions to enhance electric vehicle fuel efficiency with the current powertrain technologies. First, we develop an instantaneous power consumption modeling of electric vehicles by the curb weights, speed, acceleration, road slope, passenger and cargo weights, motor capacity, and so on, as a battery discharge model. We ensure the model fidelity as we fabricate a lightweight custom electric vehicle perform extensive measurement. The model fidelity enables us to achieve a more accurate range estimation.\nWe attempt both design and runtime energy optimization using the electric-vehicle-specific energy characteristics. We emphasize that electric vehicles show completely different fuel consumption behaviors from internal combustion engine vehicles due to the significant discrepancy in the drivetrain. We introduce minimum-energy driving methods for electric vehicles, which are largely different from eco-driving methods of internal combustion engine vehicles. We also propose a rapid energy-aware electric vehicle synthesis that allows users to quickly customize their own electric vehicle powertrain specification without understanding the technology.\nFinally, we also give a heads up of an application-specific (extreme off-road driving) electric vehicle design challenges. We proved electric vehicles are capable, efficient and promising on extreme off-roads through real trail run tests.\nBio: Naehyuck Chang is a Full Professor at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) from 2014.

ChargePoint presented its CP4300 Type 2 cable attached AC station, for businesses, multi-family residences and fleet charging solutions.\nAs a national event bringing together New Zealand’s entire EV industry, EV World aimed to propel the private and public community into the ‘EV future’ and turn conversations into action. With a robust program of EV industry representatives, adjacent industry representatives and EV technology supporters and investors; delegates heard from fleet managers, government agencies, vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, technology providers and energy companies in a series of seminars and workshops.\nOn the first day of the conference, business owners, fleet managers and decision makers in businesses were encouraged to discover more about EV technology and to experience and evaluate EVs for their own organisations. During the second day, the general public and green-transport enthusiasts were dazzled by the latest EV models, technology and related products. The event was a prime opportunity for ChargePoint to share the latest in EV Charging technology and innovation.\nThe team were overwhelmed with New Zealand’s passion for green technology and their keenness to adopt EVs on a broad scale.

These invisible zones extend to the front, back, and both sides of these colossal vehicles. Countless accidents unfold when smaller vehicles find themselves unwittingly traversing the treacherous territories of a large commercial truck’s no-zone. An experienced truck accident attorney can collect evidence and prove the liability of the at-fault truck driver and the trucking company in a no-zone accident to get you maximum financial compensation.\nHidden Threats Related to No Zones in Trucks\n“No zone” refers to the areas around a semi-truck where the driver’s visibility is significantly limited or completely obstructed. These no zones are essentially blind spots, and they pose a unique challenge for truck drivers. Unlike smaller vehicles, truckers cannot easily see these blind spots by using their rearview or passenger-side mirror.\nThe key no zones around semi trucks typically include:\n- Front No-Zone: The space directly in front of the truck cab is a significant blind spot. Drivers in this area may be obscured from the trucker’s view, particularly if the truck has a high hood or the driver is sitting higher up in the cab.\n- Rear No-Zone: Similar to the front, the area directly behind the truck is often a blind spot. Many vehicles in this space are invisible to the truck driver.\n- Side No Zones: Trucks have large blind spots on both sides, extending from the side mirrors to the rear of the trailer. Vehicles traveling in these areas may go unnoticed by the truck driver.\n- Turns No Zone: When a truck is making a turn, the space to the side, especially next to the cab and trailer, is a critical blind spot.\n- Underride No Zone: The area underneath the trailer of a truck can also be a significant blind spot. Smaller vehicles that are too close to the rear of the truck may not be visible to the truck driver, especially if they are in the process of slowing down or stopping.\nRisks Associated with No Zones in Truck Safety in California\nLimited Visibility Leads to Increased Risks\nThe primary danger of a truck’s no zone lies in the limited visibility they create for truck drivers. When vehicles are positioned in these blind spots, they essentially become invisible to the trucker, especially during lane changes, turns, or sudden maneuvers.\nPotential for Collisions During Lane Changes\nWhen a vehicle is traveling in the blind spot of a large truck, and the truck driver decides to change lanes without proper awareness, it can lead to a collision. The fact that the truck driver cannot see in these areas increases the chances of accidents.\nVulnerability in Right and Left Turns\nThe turning radius of trucks, coupled with the limited visibility around the cab and trailer, makes it challenging for drivers to spot vehicles in these areas.\nRear-End Collisions in Rear No Zones\nThe rear no zone, located directly behind the truck, is another potential danger zone. Tailgating a truck or lingering too closely in this space can lead to rear-end collisions. The size and weight of trucks amplify the impact of such collisions.\nTechniques to Identify and Minimize No Zones\n- Stay Seen, Stay Safe: Avoid lingering in truck blind spots by maintaining a safe following distance, ensuring your visibility to larger vehicles in their rearview mirror.\n- Signal Ahead, Drive Ahead: Signaling early gives drivers around you ample time to adjust, reducing the risk of being in their blind spots during maneuvers.\n- Check and Confirm: Before changing lanes, drivers of passenger vehicles should quickly make sure they are clear of potential blind spots. You should also immediately slow down if you think a large truck driver cannot see you.\n- Weather the Blind Spots: Adverse conditions heighten the challenge of large no-zone accidents. You should slow down, remain patient, stay aware, drive safely, and exercise extra caution around larger vehicles.\nWhy Choose Brown & Gessell as Your No-Zone Truck Accident Attorneys?\nExperience, Skills, and Resources\nDrawing upon decades of combined experience, attorneys Steven L.

Fatigue or violations of driving time limits could be contributing factors to the no-zone accident.\nTrucking Company Policies: Our attorneys will scrutinize the policies and procedures of the trucking company to determine if they were in compliance with industry regulations.

But what sets these electric scooters apart and why should you choose them over regular ones? In this article, we'll delve into the design features and performance advantages of off-road electric scooters and how they differ from their on-road counterparts.\nDesign Features of Off-Road Electric Scooters\nDominating Tires: Traction, Stability, and Bump-Proof Riding\nOff-road tires are typically larger, wider, and equipped with deeper treads than on-road tires. These enhancements provide superior traction, stability, and shock absorption on uneven and loose surfaces. Off-road tires are often pneumatic (air-filled), allowing them to adapt to the terrain and cushion against bumps and vibrations. Some off-road electric scooters even come with tubeless tires, reducing the risk of punctures and simplifying repairs.\nGlide Over the Roughest Terrain with Dual Suspension\nAnother key design feature of off-road electric scooters is their suspension system. These scooters typically boast dual suspension, meaning they have shock absorbers both in the front and rear wheels. This design helps to smoothen the ride and reduces fatigue and stress on the rider's body. Depending on their price and performance level, off-road electric scooters may feature various suspension types, such as spring, hydraulic, or swing arm suspension.\nUnleashing Raw Power: High-Performance Motors\nThe motor is yet another critical component of off-road electric scooters. Due to the need to overcome more resistance and obstacles on rough terrains, these scooters often pack more powerful motors than their on-road counterparts. Some off-road electric scooters are equipped with dual motors, offering increased torque, acceleration, and hill-climbing ability. However, it's worth noting that dual motors consume more battery and contribute to a heavier scooter.\nExtended Adventures: Enduring Battery Options\nA sturdy and durable battery is essential for off-road electric scooters. These scooters require larger and more robust batteries compared to on-road ones, as they consume more power and need to cover longer distances. Depending on their price and quality, off-road electric scooters may use lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries. While lithium-ion batteries are lighter, more efficient, and boast a longer lifespan, they tend to be more expensive and sensitive to temperature fluctuations.\nBuilt Tough: Sturdy Frames for Wild Rides\nThe frame, which supports and connects all the other components, is equally crucial for off-road electric scooters. To withstand the stresses and wear and tear on rough terrains, these scooters require stronger and sturdier frames. Depending on their weight and durability considerations, off-road electric scooters may feature steel or aluminum frames. Steel frames are heavier but offer greater robustness, while aluminum frames are lighter but may be more susceptible to bending.\nPerformance Advantages of Off-Road Electric Scooters\nConquer Every Terrain: Unrivaled Versatility\nOne of the primary performance advantages of off-road electric scooters is their unparalleled versatility. While regular scooters excel on smooth paved roads, off-road electric scooters can tackle a wide range of terrains, including dirt roads, gravel paths, grass fields, forest trails, rocky hills, sand dunes, and even snowy slopes. This capability makes off-road electric scooters the ideal choice for adventurous riders seeking new challenges and exciting exploration.\nAdrenaline-Pumping Speed: Embrace the Need for Velocity\nOff-road electric scooters also offer a significant speed advantage. With more powerful motors and less friction on rough surfaces, these scooters can reach higher speeds compared to regular ones. Some off-road electric scooters can hit speeds of up to 37 mph or more, far surpassing the typical 20 mph limit of regular scooters. This increased speed injects more adrenaline and thrill into the riding experience, appealing to riders who enjoy racing and competition.\nGo the Extra Mile: Extended Range, Limitless Adventure\nAnother standout performance advantage of off-road electric scooters is their extended range. Thanks to their larger batteries and more efficient energy consumption on rough terrains, off-road scooters can travel longer distances than their on-road counterparts. Some off-road electric scooters boast a remarkable range of up to 80 miles or more on a single charge, offering unparalleled convenience and freedom for riders who love embarking on long-distance journeys without battery anxiety.\nThe Ultimate Warrior: Durability for Every Adventure\nDurability is another strong point of off-road electric scooters. Their robust components are designed to withstand the challenges of rough terrain, making them more resilient and durable than ordinary scooters. In addition, off-road electric scooters can handle various weather conditions such as rain, snow, heat, and cold. With their unique design features and performance advantages, they provide riders with a reliable and safe riding experience, making them different from ordinary scooters.\nIn conclusion, off-road electric scooters stand out with their unique design features and performance advantages, setting them apart from regular scooters. With their enhanced tires, dual suspension, powerful motors, durable batteries, and sturdy frames, off-road electric scooters offer a comfortable and exciting ride on various terrains. Their unmatched versatility, higher speeds, extended range, and increased durability make them the preferred choice for adventurous riders seeking fun, excitement, convenience, freedom, reliability , and safety on their journeys.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://abaxles.co.uk/en/about/", "date": "2018-01-21T23:49:58Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084890928.82/warc/CC-MAIN-20180121234728-20180122014728-00212.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9557654857635498, "token_count": 677, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2018-05", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2018-05__0__48324155", "lang": "en", "text": "Welcome to A B Axles.

Electric cars are on the rise, and a whole new world of autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles are starting to appear on roadways around the world.\nA recent Cars Online report released by Capgemini sheds light on where consumers see the industry going in the near future, with over 8,000 consumers across eight countries were surveyed for the report.\nWith the boon of ridesharing services giving riders an alternative to purchasing their own vehicle, a surprising 34% of those surveyed stated that they saw these services as a genuine alternative to car ownership. After all, if your car payment would cost you more monthly than you would spend on ridesharing services, these services would become a more appealing choice to budget-conscious consumers.\nAutonomous vehicles adding value:\nThis result adds credibility to another report released recently by RethinkX that predicts that by 2030 as much as 95% of the passenger vehicles on United States roadways would be autonomous and owned by a fleet rather than a private consumer. Uber, most notably, is already working on a plan to replace at least some of its human drivers with autonomous vehicles.\nThis means, of course, less consumer-purchased cars. If fifteen people are getting around just fine on a shared vehicle, then that’s fourteen fewer cars being sold.\nKai Grambow, Global Head of Automotive at Capgemini, said: “We are currently experiencing a golden age of car sales, however, it’s clear that this won’t last forever in its current form. Car brands are realizing they need to react to changing consumer habits to sustain growth.”\nThere is some hope, however. In the Cars Online report, a promising 56% of those polled said that car-hailing and ride-sharing services were complementary to buying a new car, rather than an outright replacement.\nSome interesting strategies come to light for car manufacturers looking to maintain their competitive edge in an evolving market. For one, ride-sharing services could be an excellent marketing tool for these companies. Consumers that enjoy a ride they received in a particular make/model vehicle are more likely to consider it when it comes time to buy their own new car.\nAn incredible 81% of people polled stated they are willing to pay more for autonomous-driving features. Brands like Tesla and Mercedes are wowing consumers with their intelligent driving assistance features, often paying a significant markup for the high-end vehicles these technologies are included with.\nBrands like Ford, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Infinity, Volvo, and Subaru are also starting to roll out vehicles with driver-assist capabilities for anyone willing to pay a little more for its convenience. As the price of this feature goes down, more consumers will be tempted to hop on board.\nA cautious consumer market?\nTech brands like Apple sound like natural fits for autonomous vehicles. It’s the role of these brands to extend their reach into new markets. Apple did this when it entered the phone market in 2007, and the consumer market was no less hesitant to trust their communication to a brand that had never before produced a mobile phone… until they saw it in action.\nAmong the people polled, 51% said they would trust an established automotive manufacturer’s autonomous car over a brand that had never before produced a vehicle before.\nThe automotive industry is changing in a big way right now. Consumers have more choice in how their vehicle works and what features they want it to have than ever before. Decades ago automatic windows and air conditioning were the big selling points that set vehicles apart. Today, it’s how autonomous you want your driving experience to be, and whether or not you want to fuel up at a gas station or an electric outlet.\nThe Cars Online survey was conducted in January of 2017 and included representation from Brazil, China, France, Germany, Italy, India, the United Kingdom, and the United States.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.htb.org/car-park-terms-conditions", "date": "2019-10-19T10:27:17Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-43/segments/1570986692723.54/warc/CC-MAIN-20191019090937-20191019114437-00094.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9448764324188232, "token_count": 1745, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-43", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-43__0__64920674", "lang": "en", "text": "HTB Car Park Terms & Conditions of Hire\n1.

This was a joint purchase between the Sheriff’s Office and Secondary Roads Department. The trailer has four adjustable jack stands on the corners that allows the trailer to be set up in a level position on roadsides with uneven terrain that is often present in rural settings. It has dual 12 volt batteries and a solar panel charging system to allow the trailer to operate for up to a week or more without having to be connected to a power source. The trailer is used to display the speed of passing vehicles.\nThis trailer is not a speed camera and has no enforcement capabilities or cameras. The sign has programmable display that can display the vehicle’s actual speed utilizing a built in RADAR and a message that reads “SLOW DOWN” and red and blue lights temporarily flash if the vehicle is driving above a preset speed limit. The trailer also has a fixed speed limit sign that displays the speed zone at that location. The sign is programmable so that speeds above a preset limit will not be displayed on the screen to discourage any attempts from drivers to record high speeds for entertainment purposes.\nSpeed trailers like this have been around for years and drivers have probably seen similar versions in various cities and counties. They are often called “traffic calming devices” by those in the traffic safety industry. Digital speed displays can be on mobile trailers or on post-mounted electronic signs. Most drivers can relate to instinctively tapping their brakes when they see their speed displayed if it is above the posted speed limit. Speed trailers and signs are just one method of improving traffic safety. Digital signs provide a 24/7 visual reminder to passing motorists. This is beneficial in all areas but is especially important in higher-risk areas with pedestrian traffic such as school or construction zones.\nThe trailer does have the ability to collect limited data about passing vehicles. It can collect vehicle counts, date, time, and speeds of passing vehicles but nothing unique about the vehicle or the vehicle occupants. This data is useful to determine the traffic volume of a specific area of roadway as well as help determine if there is a speed problem and if so, what time of day or even what days of the week. The Sheriff’s Office will utilize this data along with data from other sources and crash data to target enforcement efforts in areas where it will have the greatest impact on traffic safety. The Traffic Unit will move this trailer around to various locations throughout the year.\nSheriff Phillips said “We have hundreds of miles of roads to patrol in Marshall County. Utilizing technology and data allows us to be more efficient with our resources and concentrate enforcement efforts in the right place at the right time to keep our roadways safe.” If you have questions or concerns about traffic safety in Marshall County, please contact the Sheriff's Office.\nDecember 5, 2023Albion woman arrested on multiple Iowa State Patrol arrest warrants as a result of a crash investigation.\nSeptember 18, 2023\nJune 12, 2023\nMay 15, 2023", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://anaheimhillscarwashandoil.com/", "date": "2017-04-23T15:40:04Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917118713.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031158-00090-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9486441612243652, "token_count": 271, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-17", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-17__0__234391808", "lang": "en", "text": "Customer Appreciation Program\nSign-up for the Anahiem Hills Car Wash & Lube Customer Appreciation Program and recieve coupons on all of our most popular services in your email.

Murphy\nThe snow fell straight down that November night in Sioux Falls. Street lights’ glow reflected back from low clouds and falling snow to create a storybook scene. It was so peaceful, so quiet.\nOn one neighborhood street car tires made a soft sound as they rolled through a turn in the snow. But then, suddenly, those tires made a different, “shushing” sound as they slipped their earthly bonds and slid sideways. The sliding tires came to rest only when the front fender of the car I was driving collided softly but surely with a parked car.\nOh! That’s not good.\nSliding into another car is bad enough. But, worse, sixteen year old me was driving my parent’s car. A great car – a sky blue, 1969 Thunderbird.\nI put the car in park and got out to check the damage.\nI know I put the car in park. Fill me with truth serum, give me a polygraph exam. I tell you I put that car in park.\nI went around to where my front fender was nudged against the rear fender of the parked car. I leaned in close for a better look. There it was - a dent in the Thunderbird.\nBut, leaning in, peering at that T-bird, I saw something else: I saw the passenger side mirror. Then I saw the door handle. Then the rear fender rolled past.\nThe rear fender rolled past. The car was rolling downhill. THE CAR WAS ROLLING DOWNHILL!\nAnd it rolled. It rolled diagonally down the street, jumped a curb, and caromed off a tree. It cut the corner and rolled off a curb, crossed a street, and up another curb . . .\nAnd me? I ran after the car. Arms flailing, running haplessly in a pair of slick-soled cowboy boots through the new snow. The boys in Capa City would have laughed to see a Sioux Falls kid wearing cowboy boots.\nAt some point I got the driver’s door open. But still, the car rolled and I ran.\nFinally, as the car rolled toward the front of a quiet house at the foot of the hill, I dove in and jammed the brake pedal down with my hands.\nThere I was – my legs out the car door and the front bumper of the car buried in an evergreen bush in front of someone’s picture window. Happily, the living room behind the picture window was dark.\nI lay there for a moment to catch my breath.\nThen I straightened myself around and backed the car off the lawn. I parked the car on the level. I put the car in park. I put on the emergency brake. I braced the tires with a set of commercial airliner wheel chocks.\nI retraced my steps. I went to the house where the car I hit was parked. Turned out that car belonged to a guest at a party there. So I got to tell my tale to a whole roomful of folks – great. They got a kick out of the story.\nI knocked on the door of the house of the tree the car had hit. “You what? I’m sorry, I’m not sure what you’re talking about.” said the poor, confused woman who answered that door.\nI called my Dad and told him what had happened.\nThe next morning, Sunday, Mom and Dad and my brother and sister and I went out to the car to go to Mass. When my sister saw the big dent in the car from its bankshot off the tree, she said what any little sister must say at such a moment: “WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CAR?!!?!!”\n“Great,” I thought, “here it comes.”\nBut, before the Inquisition could continue, Dad chuckled and said “I kissed a tree with the car last night. Let’s go. Chop, chop!”\nHow about that – “I kissed a tree with the car last night.”\nThat was one of the things for which I was thankful in 1974.\nI’m still thankful for the assist my Dad gave me that Sunday morning. I’m pretty sure he’s thankful I don’t chase his car down snowy streets anymore.\n(Originally published in the November 18th, 2007 Rapid City Journal)", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://franciscofmcxn.fireblogz.com/9282814/rental-autos-do-you-make-this-costly-car-rental-mistake", "date": "2019-01-20T05:32:25Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-04/segments/1547583700012.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20190120042010-20190120064010-00039.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.966319739818573, "token_count": 808, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-04", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-04__0__10667528", "lang": "en", "text": "Does not it seem complex sometimes simply to get a rental car?

In some cases you can decrease additional insurance policy on car rentals, yet there are specific circumstances that you should always acquire the insurance coverage. Yet how do you recognize?\nOne of the largest areas of complication is the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) supplied by the car rental company at the time of rental. If you are entailed in a mishap, it covers damage to the rental car.\nThe CDW isn't precisely insurance policy, and it just covers just damage to the rental car.

Companies such as Tesla have lead the charge, but now all of the major auto manufacturers are coming out with electrified versions of their long standing industry models. Ford has the F150 Lighting, an electric version of their popular F150. GMC has recently launched the GMC Hummer EV bringing back the very popular GMC Hummer now in electric. Toyota has the bZ4X to go along with a list of hybrids, Honda has the Prologue SUV, Chevrolet has the Bolt, Blazer and Equinox. Most if not all of the luxury automakers such as BMW, Audi, Mercedes, etc. have their own electric vehicle lines as well.\nThe move towards eMobility, however, is not confined to the consumer vehicle market. eMobility has made the way into public transit and heavy duty construction vehicles. In the busy industries, all of the largest manufacturers (BYD, Proterra, New Flyer, Gillig, etc.) have designed electric models of their busses. In the construction industry both Volvo and Caterpillar have come out with electric versions of their standard equipment as well. Both announcing electric front-end loaders and backhoes. In the freight transportation industry numerous companies are designing and building electric semi-trailers. Mercedes-Benz and Volvo have both announced electric semi-trailers along with a few startup companies attempting to join the establish leading manufacturers.\nA shift from traditional gas and diesel vehicles to electrified versions means an increase in standard and high-voltage electric cables running throughout the vehicles. This increase also leads to an increase in the need for EMC (electromagnetic current) shielding protecting the sensitive signals inside the vehicle. In order to protect these cables and the signals running inside or outside of them, there is a high demand for products that withstand the test of time and the wear and tear of some of these tough industries.\nConduit and Sleeve Protection\nLight, flexible and easy to fit, corrugated plastic conduit is used in many industries. When plastic flexible conduit is made with polyamide, it becomes even more versatile. This advanced polymer possesses valuable properties such as resistance to heat and chemicals, making it a viable option for demanding industries such as the eMobility industry. It is also certified to the fire protection standard ECE-R 118.03, annex 7 and 8 meeting regulatory standards for materials used in passenger transport.\nManufactured in signal color orange, ROHRflex PA 6-L, is ideal of protection high-voltage cables. The orange sets the conduit apart from other standard black conduits identifying the cables inside as high-voltage.\nSome applications do not require the degree of protection a polyamide conduit can provide in terms of durability or ingress protection. When the need to to simply protect and identify the cables as high-voltage from wear and tare, braid and sleeve protection can solve the need. HG-PET025 and ACN are two of these options which provide fantastic protection for the cables inside. FBW is a protection option allowing installers to wrap their cables after installation. Even as a wrap solution, FBW is still able to provide dynamic cut and abrasion resistance.\nThe EVolution EMC is not a typical EMC cable gland as known from industrial applications. In fact, it is very different – the best of both worlds: A top-quality cable gland, but easily disconnectable. Quick and easy to use, yet designed for the highest shielding currents, for all high-voltage cable types and for all engine-power classes. The EVolution gland provides full 360 degree connectivity thanks to a crimped shielding connection. Ideal solution for EMC protection in rough environments exposed to the elements and high vibrations.\nThese two EMC cable glands are built and designed to meet the needs of most EMC situations. Unlike the EVolution EMC, these cable glands are traditional in style where the cable is held in place via a compression sleeve or a contact spring. powerConnect holds cables firm with a compression sleeve providing low transfer resistance and excellent sealing performance. easyCONNECT uses a spring along with a compression sleeve providing low contact resistance and high ingress protection. Both options provide a wide range of entry thread options for different applications.\nNo matter your cable protection need, AerosUSA is here to help.

But ignoring your car problems is a decision you’ll soon regret. Those leaks, screeches, and dashboard notification lights each indicate an issue that can be serious, dangerous, and costly if you pretend it’s just not there. By dealing with these problems when they first rear their ugly heads, you can avoid an expensive repair necessary to keep your car running. Is your car about to die? Hopefully not, but these are 14 telltale signs that it might not be long for this world.\n“Check engine” light\nWe’ve all been there: The dreaded “check engine” light just flicked on and you fear a massive bill from your mechanic is in your immediate future. We’re sorry to break the news to you, but fear isn’t a good reason to put off a trip to said mechanic. “If your ‘check engine’ light turns on, you should have your car tested as soon as possible because it’s a signal that something is wrong,” explains Tony Arevalo from Carsurance.net. He knows this is a bitter pill to swallow and that “people often postpone going to the mechanic precisely because the car is still running,” but doing so may cause major damage to your vehicle. Depending on what type of car you have, you might actually be in luck. These 10 car brands usually cost the least to repair.\nBroken or unreadable license plate\nHere’s one car issue that’s probably not at the top of your car maintenance checklist, but that’s a mistake. As Tobias Rawcliffe from Number1Plates.com points out, “having broken or unreadable registration plates can make you worthy of a large on-the-spot fine.” After all, the plates are the legal identifier for your vehicle, and if you’re obscuring them or otherwise making it difficult for authorities to read them, you could get pulled over and ticketed. Luckily, replacing your car’s license plate is a cinch. Just head into your local DMV and pay the small fee for a new plate. Here’s some more good news: There’s actually a way to avoid the line at the DMV.\nLow gas warning light\nYou might think you know your car and just how long it will run on just how little gas, but you shouldn’t test this theory—and not just because you might get stuck. Auto professionals and mechanics alike agree that you should not be driving on less than a quarter tank of gas. Laura Gonzalez, Marketing Manager for Auto Nation Volkswagen of Las Vegas, says that this is because “the fuel pump uses gas as not only a lubricant but also as a method to keep it cool. If you run your car to the point that it’s almost completely out of gas, you can damage the fuel pump if it sucks in air, causing it to heat up and burn out.” That’s a repair you desperately want to avoid since it’s labor intensive and costly. These are the cars with the best fuel economy to help you drive farther before seeing a low gas warning.\nBroken exterior lights\nFaulty or broken exterior car lights can impair your vision or the vision of other drivers, says Gonzalez. Having exterior lights not functioning properly, or out completely, could earn you a costly ticket from a police officer on patrol at night. This repair is one of the least expensive, so there’s no reason to ignore this one. Replacing non-headlight bulbs is actually one of the car problems you can easily fix yourself.\nYou may think that you can course-correct your car when your tires are pulling you to the left or right as you drive, but this is a risky prospect. First, it makes it harder for you to stay safe on the road. Second, says Cindy Price, Import Service Manager at Ricart Automotive, your tires will suffer. The crazy thing is, you may not even realize you have an alignment problem right away since the first sign of a problem isn’t actually your car pulling one way or the other. “What typically happens first is uneven tire wear, and by then it is too late—you need new tires,” Price explains. “Not checking your alignment on a regular basis can end up being very costly in the long run and result in needing new tires more frequently than normal.” Don’t miss these other things you’re doing to your car that mechanics wouldn’t.\nWhen it comes to being low on oil and seeing that oil service light pop up on your dashboard, you likely have a little bit of driving time left before you have a problem. But, Gonzalez says, “ignoring your low oil situation and the oil service light for too long will cause catastrophic failure to your engine.” Changing your oil at the recommended intervals will help extend the life of your engine, as well as help you avoid expensive visits to the dealer’s service bay. Checking your engine’s oil levels is one of the car maintenance basics everyone should know how to do.\nChipped windshield glass\nIt’s not just an aesthetic issue. “Your windshield provides up to 30 percent of your vehicle’s structural strength, meaning any chips or cracks can weaken your windshield, compromising your safety in a crash or rollover situation,” says Ed Sprigler, VP of Strategic Initiatives at Safelite AutoGlass. Another reason you shouldn’t ignore chipped windshield glass? “Windshields host an important yet delicate camera called ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) that control some of our favorite safety features, such as blind-spot monitoring, lane assist, and auto-braking,” Sprigler explains.\n“The coolant warning light is likely telling you that you have a coolant leak,” says Gonzalez. “Ignoring it could cause your car to overheat your engine and destroy it if the coolant drops too low.” Go in to get it checked out, and whatever you do, don’t use water in place of coolant. Here are another 12 of the worst tips car mechanics have ever heard.\n“When it comes to auto repair, many people believe that if you ignore a car problem, it will go away, including a slow start,” says Matt Allen, the host of Arizona’s Bumper to Bumper Radio and owner of Virginia Auto Service and Import Car Specialists in Phoenix. This is not the case…at all. So, what is a slow start, exactly, and why is it such a problem? “[A slow start is when] you go to start your car and it struggles to turn over for a minute, but then it does,” Allen explains. “This could be a sign of a dead battery or other starter/alternator problems, and unfortunately, this problem will only continue until one day the car won’t start.” Take your car to a trusted mechanic to determine the strength of your battery. By the way, this is how long car batteries last.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://jeanmarie.istanaimpian.me/book/1100972923/muscle-cars", "date": "2019-10-15T19:59:12Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-43/segments/1570986660231.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20191015182235-20191015205735-00254.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9698566794395447, "token_count": 160, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-43", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-43__0__112909277", "lang": "en", "text": "Muscle Cars is the story of America's pursuit of sheer horsepower in the 1960s and '70s.

This may involve the MTA Dealer covering the reasonable cost of parts and labour to repair any defects or may involve the MTA Dealer paying the excess on any applicable mechanical warranty.\nThe MTA Dealer Warranty is valid; in the case of a Category One qualifying motor vehicle, for the earlier of 100 days from the date of sale or 5,000km and in the case of a Category Two qualifying motor vehicle, for the earlier of 30 days from the date of sale or 3,000km.\nA Category One qualifying motor vehicle is a vehicle sold by an MTA Dealer that is less than 10 years old and has travelled less than 100,000km. Motorcycles, commercial vehicles or vehicles intended for commercial use are not qualifying motor vehicles.\nA Category Two qualifying motor vehicle is a vehicle sold by an MTA Dealer that is more than 10 years old and has travelled more than 100,000km. Motorcycles, commercial vehicles or vehicles intended for commercial use are not qualifying motor vehicles.\nThe MTA Dealer Warranty excludes motorcycles, commercial vehicles and vehicles used for commercial purposes. This means vehicles over 3500GVM and cars used for business purposes.\nThe MTA Dealer Warranty does not apply if the qualifying motor vehicle has been used in an inappropriate manner that is not considered to be a normal use for that qualifying motor vehicle.\nThe MTA Dealer Warranty does not apply if any modifications are made to the qualifying motor vehicle after purchase that means that the vehicle is outside the manufacturer’s original specifications.\nThe MTA Dealer Warranty does not apply to audio and navigation systems, consumables (fluids, batteries, tyres, and brake pads), shock absorbers, corrosion, paintwork and items replaced during servicing.\nIf the vehicle is used in any form of racing competitions the MTA Dealer Warranty no longer applies.\nThe MTA Dealer Warranty does not apply if the customer has the qualifying motor vehicle repaired without first obtaining the MTA Dealer’s approval.\nIf any of the exclusions apply then the MTA Dealer Warranty does not apply and is invalid.\nDefining customer responsibilities.\nThe customer must take reasonable steps to protect the qualifying motor vehicle from the incidence of breakdown.\nThe customer must ensure that the qualifying motor vehicle is not used in an inappropriate manner or used in any way that is not considered normal use for that qualifying motor vehicle.\nThe customer must comply with the manufacturer’s recommendations as to safety, maintenance and the operation of the qualifying motor vehicle.\nThe customer must contact the MTA Dealer as soon as a defect arises.\nProcess for remedying defects.\nIf a defect arises in the qualifying motor vehicle the customer must immediately contact the MTA Dealer. The customer cannot have the qualifying motor vehicle repaired, as a failure to seek prior approval for repairs to commence will invalidate the MTA Dealer Warranty.\nIn the event that the MTA Warranty is valid and applicable and none of the exclusions apply so as to invalidate the Warranty, the MTA Dealer will nominate an MTA Repairer to carry out remedial work.\nIf the MTA Repairer is located in excess of 50 kilometres from the customer’s home the MTA Dealer will meet reasonable costs in transporting the vehicle.\nIf dismantling is required to assess whether the MTA Dealer Warranty applies, the customer will be reimbursed if the claim is valid. This means that the customer must authorise any dismantling.\nThe customer must submit complete invoices to the MTA Dealer which detail repairs, parts and labour together with any outwork. Any repairs, parts and labour will not be accepted without prior approval of the MTA Dealer\nIf the Warranty is disputed?\nIn the event that the MTA Dealer disputes the MTA Dealer Warranty or the customer is not satisfied with a repair, the customer should contact the MTA Call Centre to outline the complaint.\nIf it is not clear whether or not the MTA Dealer Warranty applies, or a customer is not satisfied with the repair or the matter is complicated, the complaint will be considered by a panel composed of MTA National Office staff. If the panel concludes that the MTA Dealer Warranty applies and that the dealer must honour the MTA Dealer Warranty and the dealer does not do so then:\nThe MTA Dealer’s membership of MTA will be reviewed by the Board of Directors; and\nMTA will honour the MTA Dealer Warranty in the dealer’s place. MTA’s liability is capped at $5,000 per qualifying motor vehicle.

Seat belts required.\nDrivers and passengers ages 16 to 24 historically use seat belts less often than other groups. Let teens know that seat belt use is non-negotiable. It’s the easiest way to protect themselves in a crash. And, set a good example by buckling up yourself.\n3. Never speed.\nTeenagers may like to push the limits, but the road isn’t the place to do so. Speeding doesn’t simply put them at risk for a ticket. It increases the risk of a deadly accident as well.\n4. No calls, no texts.\nIt’s never a good idea for anyone to call or text while driving, but, because teens lack experience behind the wheel, distracted driving is all the more risky. Reaction times are slower when someone is distracted. Even worse, sending or reading a text means a driver’s eyes aren’t on the road.\n5. Only one passenger (or zero, depending on your state’s licensing guidelines for young drivers).\nAs the number of passengers rises, so does the risk of a fatal crash, the NHTSA says. Think back to when you were a teen driver — how different were your actions when you had friends in the car versus when you were alone?\nLet young drivers know that driving is a privilege and that you’ll take away the keys if they don’t drive safely. Then, have regular conversations about driving safety and other issues to ensure the lessons don’t fall by the wayside. Soon, you’ll have another trusted and responsible driver in the family – maybe even one that qualifies for a car insurance discount.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.valuefood.info/2023/a-comprehensive-guide-to-shielding-your-car-from-stone-chips/", "date": "2024-02-23T09:14:34Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474377.60/warc/CC-MAIN-20240223085439-20240223115439-00123.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.912489652633667, "token_count": 835, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-10__0__122341579", "lang": "en", "text": "Your car is more than just a mode of transportation; it’s a valuable asset that deserves protection against the hazards of the road. Among these hazards, stone chips pose a common and potentially damaging threat to your car’s exterior. Thankfully, there’s an effective solution: Paint Protection Film (PPF). In this guide, we’ll explore how to safeguard your car from stone chips using PPF, as well as other preventive measures you can take.\nTable of Contents\nUnderstanding the Peril of Stone Chips:\nStone chips occur when small rocks or debris are propelled by moving vehicles, impacting the surface of your car. These chips can create unsightly marks, chip away at the paint, and even lead to rust formation over time. Protecting your car’s paintwork from stone chips not only maintains its aesthetic appeal but also preserves its resale value.\nThe Power of Paint Protection Film (PPF):\nPPF is a revolutionary solution that acts as a barrier between your car’s paint and the elements. This transparent film is designed to absorb impacts and prevent them from reaching the paint underneath. Here’s why PPF is the ultimate defense against stone chips:\n- Impact Absorption: PPF has a unique self-healing property that allows it to absorb the impact of small debris, like stones, without leaving permanent damage on the film or your car’s paint.\n- Invisible Protection: PPF is virtually invisible, allowing your car’s original color and finish to shine through while still providing robust protection.\n- Long-Lasting: High-quality PPF can last for years, making it a cost-effective investment in preserving your car’s appearance.\n- Easy Maintenance: PPF is easy to clean and maintain, keeping your car looking new without extensive upkeep.\nSteps to Protect Your Car from Stone Chips:\n- Choose Quality PPF: Opt for high-quality PPF that is specifically designed to provide maximum protection. Consider factors like durability, self-healing capabilities, and UV resistance.\n- Professional Installation: Proper installation of PPF is crucial for optimal performance. Trust trained professionals to install the film correctly, ensuring it adheres seamlessly to your car’s contours.\n- Full-Coverage Application: While PPF can be applied to specific areas prone to stone chips, such as the front bumper and hood, consider a full-coverage application for comprehensive protection.\n- Regular Maintenance: Clean your car regularly to prevent debris buildup on the PPF. Use gentle car cleaning products and techniques to avoid damaging the film.\nAdditional Protective Measures:\nWhile PPF offers exceptional protection against stone chips, it can be complemented by other preventive measures:\n- Maintain Distance: Maintain a safe following distance from other vehicles, especially large trucks and construction vehicles that can kick up debris.\n- Avoid Tailgating: Avoid tailgating to minimize the risk of being hit by stones thrown from the tires of the vehicle in front of you.\n- Use Mud Flaps: Installing mud flaps behind your car’s wheels can help deflect debris and reduce the chance of stone chips.\n- Regular Washing: Regularly wash your car to remove dirt and debris that can cause abrasions if left on the surface.\nStone chips are an inevitable part of driving, but their impact on your car’s appearance can be minimized with the right protective measures. Paint Protection Film (PPF) stands as a superior solution, offering a transparent shield that absorbs impacts and preserves your car’s paint for years to come. By investing in PPF and adopting preventive driving practices, you can enjoy a pristine and well-protected vehicle on the road.\nWhen it comes to high-quality PPF installation, Turbo Tint Orlando is your trusted partner. Our expert team ensures flawless application, delivering unmatched protection against stone chips and other environmental hazards.

Along with the inconvenience of driving, there are also a lot of risks involved. However, there is one company stepping into the light that may set the new status quo for commuting and transportation: Waymo.\nWaymo first started out as a self-driving car project by Google. Development started in January 2009, and has been growing by leaps and bounds ever since. The development team started by building the sensors for the car from the ground up. The sensors were then integrated into the first company car, a Toyota Prius. In 2009, Google’s self-driving project drove more autonomous miles than ever before. Eventually, four years later the team added its sensors to yet another vehicle. This time it was a Lexus RX450h. This vehicle marked major steps toward becoming a true self-driving car by using a bigger SUV.\nJunior Adam Laubach voiced his opinion stating, “It would be great if this becomes mainstream, however, the thing I am concerned with is the cost of these services.”\nIn 2015, after years of drive time and improvement, the first autonomous ride was given to Steven Mahan. Steven is legally blind. Then in December 2016, the project unit was renamed Waymo. Waymo then took off, set on a mission to provide access to autonomous driving nationwide.\n“I think that this would be very useful for many youths, and just to reduce car accidents altogether,” stated sophomore Rongbong Li.\nWaymo has recently bought a production facility in Detroit, set to produce its sensors and outfit their cars for the service. The company is offering its services in the Phoenix metro area currently, and has hopes to expand in the coming year to different areas.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://acesdiesel.com/products/ppe-race-pitman-arm-2001-2010-gm", "date": "2022-01-29T05:34:53Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320299927.25/warc/CC-MAIN-20220129032406-20220129062406-00652.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8501612544059753, "token_count": 190, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-05", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-05__0__198685290", "lang": "en", "text": "The PPE Extreme-Duty Pitman Arm features a new forged design to take the abuse of racing, larger wheels or tires and increased horsepower.\nOur Pitman Arm is equipped with replaceable dual bearings and larger 7/8 inch bolt assembly for increased strength and durability.

Learn about the advantages, common FAQs, and why investing in vehicle wrapping is a smart choice.\nAre you struggling to make your business stand out from the crowd? Are you tired of losing customers to your competitors? If so, you may want to consider investing in vehicle wraps. In this detailed informational blog post about how vehicle graphics for your fleet vehicles can help you beat the competition. We'll explore the benefits of using vinyl wraps as a marketing tool and how they can help you gain a competitive advantage.\nFirst impressions matter. As a business owner, you want to make sure that your brand is memorable and that people remember your name. One of the most effective ways to do this is through vehicle wraps. A vehicle wrap is a vinyl graphic design that is applied to a car, truck, or van. It can be used to display your company's logo, contact information, and marketing message.\nWith vehicle wraps, you can turn your company vehicles into mobile billboards. This allows you to reach a wider audience and get your brand in front of potential customers who may not have heard of you otherwise. But how exactly can vehicle wraps help you beat the competition? Let's find out.\nThe first and most obvious benefit of vehicle wraps is increased brand visibility. By putting your brand on your fleet vehicles, you're essentially turning it into a moving billboard that works for your 24/7. Your brand will be seen by countless people every day as you drive around town, increasing your chances of attracting new customers.\nCompared to other forms of advertising, fleet wraps are incredibly cost-effective. Once you've paid for the initial design and installation, there are no ongoing costs associated with the wrap. This means that you can advertise your business for 5-7 years without having to pay for additional advertising. It is the lowest cost-per-impression on the market. Depending on location and the given day, one fleet vehicle can generate 30,000 to 70,000 daily impressions.\nA well-designed full wrap or partial wrap can give your business a professional appearance and make it stand out from the competition. When people see your branded vehicle driving down the street, they will immediately associate your business with quality and professionalism.\nIn addition to the marketing benefits, vehicle wraps for your fleet of vehicles can also provide protection for your vehicle. The vinyl material used in vehicle wraps is durable and can help protect your vehicle from scratches and other types of damage. This can help extend the life of your vehicle and save you money on repairs.\ndriving and parked wrapped vehicles around your local service area can dramatically increase awareness among those who live or work nearby; parked vehicles attract the attention of pedestrians, and other moterists especially in a busy urban setting.\nVehicle wraps are an excellent way to advertise your business locally. As you drive around town, people in your community will see your brand and become more familiar with your business. This can lead to more word-of-mouth referrals and increased business.\nVehicle wraps are incredibly versatile and can be used on a variety of vehicles, from cars and trucks to vans and buses. This means that you can use vehicle wraps to advertise your business no matter what type of vehicle you have.\nA professional-looking vehicle wrap can give your business a sense of credibility and legitimacy in the eyes of potential customers. When people see a branded vehicle on the road, it can help build trust and make them more likely to do business with you.\nUnlike other forms of advertising, such as pop-up ads or telemarketing calls, vehicle wraps are a non-intrusive way to reach potential customers. By simply driving around town, you can expose your brand to a wide audience without interrupting anyone's day or invading their personal space. This can lead to more positive associations with your brand and ultimately more sales.\nQ. How long do vehicle wraps last?\nVehicle wraps can last up to 5 years or longer with proper maintenance.\nQ. Can vehicle wraps be removed?\nYes, vehicle wraps can be removed without damaging the vehicle's paint job.\nQ. Can vehicle wraps be customized?\nYes, vehicle wraps can be customized to fit your business's branding and marketing message.\nQ. Do vehicle wraps work for all types of businesses?\nYes, vehicle wraps can work for any type of business, from small startups to large corporations.\nQ. Are vehicle wraps expensive?\nVehicle wraps can range in price depending on the size and complexity of the design, but they are generally more cost-effective than other forms of advertising.\nQ. How do I care for my vehicle wrap?\nTo care for your vehicle wrap, you should hand wash it with soap and water and avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.\nIn conclusion, vehicle wraps are an effective marketing tool that can give your business a competitive advantage. They provide increased brand visibility, cost-effective marketing, a professional appearance, protection for your vehicle, local advertising, and versatility. With the ability to turn your vehicles into mobile billboards, you can reach a wider audience and attract more customers.\nSo if you're looking for a way to stand out from the competition and increase your brand awareness, consider investing in vehicle wraps.

You can file your claim online and we can assist in scheduling a convenient appointment for the glass damage to be repaired. You should not operate the sunroof. This is result in further damage. Try to protect your car’s interior from weather damage. Park in a garage if possible, or cover the opening with low-tact tape and plastic. Be careful not to injure yourself on broken glass.\nDoes my insurance policy cover broken glass?\nIf your sunroof (or other glass, e.g., windshield, door glass or rear window) is damaged by something other than a collision, it’s generally handled under your comprehensive coverage. However, understand that this coverage is optional and if you don’t have it, you may be on your own when it comes time to pay for repairs. If you do have it, it is often subject to a deductible. To be certain, please refer to your policy or contact your agent and/or insurance provider to confirm your specific coverage.\nWill checking my deductible or inquiring about auto glass claims raise my insurance rates?\nAsking your insurance provider about your policy coverage and deductibles is generally not considered a claim. To be certain, please refer to your insurance policy.\nWill filing an auto glass claim count towards my insurance policy?\nIn many cases, insurance companies will not count auto glass damage as a claim on your policy. To be certain, please refer to your policy or contact your agent and/or insurance provider to confirm your specific coverage\nWhat if my deductible is the same or more than the auto glass service?\nBefore filing a sunroof repair claim, compare the cost of the repair with the amount of your comprehensive deductible. If your deductible is greater than the cost of the estimated repair, it won’t be worth your while to file a claim. We can still assist in getting your vehicle repaired, saving you money and billing you directly. However, some policies will waive the deductible for auto glass.

Sunroof Express offers multiple payment options including; Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express and Paypal.\nWhat if I only have liability coverage?\nBecause liability insurance only provides coverage for damages to another vehicle, auto glass services are not covered under your liability policy.

One way in which motorists could reduce their costs is to learn the fundamental principles of car maintenance, so that they can minimise the number of trips that they make to a professional garage without compromising their safety while out on the road.\nHow to Successfully Maintain your Car\nWith this in mind, what practical steps can you take to successfully maintain your vehicle and cut the cost of car ownership? Consider the following: –\n- Learn the Basic Arts of Car Maintenance: While car maintenance is a diverse and often complex art, there are basic tasks that remain well within the grasp of motorists. When you consider changing a tyre or the oil in your car, for example, these are relatively simple tasks that a large number of drivers are unable to perform. In addition to this, there are also evening and part time educational courses available that teach drivers how to carry out these tasks safely and without damaging their vehicle. During this process you can also learn about your car’s engine, and develop the capacity to perform basic diagnostics in the event of a breakdown.\n- Understand your Limitations as an Amateur Mechanic: Depending on how quickly and effectively you manage to learn these basic tasks, you may well want to consider more complex faults and failures. This can be a false economy, however, as there are some car maintenance tasks that should be handled by qualified professionals due to their complexity and the impact that they have on driver safety. It is therefore important to understand your limitations as an amateur mechanic, and avoid performing any repair work that may undermine the performance of your car and cost considerable amounts to rectify.\n- Invest in Professional Tools and Equipment: Once you have a basic understanding of specific car maintenance tasks, you can begin to carry these out on a regular basis. It is important that you invest in good quality tools and equipment, however, as otherwise you may undermine any repair work that you carry out. Suppliers such as SGS Engineering are an excellent source of professional grade tools and storage solutions, which will enable you to perform simple tasks effectively and further reduce the need for professional workmanship. While this may require an upfront investment, it delivers excellent value in terms of maintaining the look and performance of your vehicle.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.insurancechoice.co.uk/blog/2019/10/tips-for-selling-cars-on-auto-trader", "date": "2022-07-01T22:55:11Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-27/segments/1656103947269.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20220701220150-20220702010150-00473.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9340212345123291, "token_count": 2779, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2022-27", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2022-27__0__222449010", "lang": "en", "text": "Whether you’re a car dealer, mechanic, or a business within the motor trade industry, when it comes to selling cars, Auto Trader is your go-to. Selling a car on Auto Trader’s online car marketplace gives you access to the UK’s largest car buying demographic and is likely to get you the best price possible for your vehicle.Auto Trader\nis highly rated for customer satisfaction – the company says sellers are twice as likely\nto shift their motors within a week of advertising on the site.\nHowever, selling your car online does come with risks. There’s the potential to be targeted by thieves or scammers, and it’s vital to ensure you provide accurate information when selling your car, avoiding issues down the line.\nWhen you’ve purchased your car, Insurance Choice is here to help, offering bespoke motor trade insurance\ndesigned to fit around a wide range of motor-based trades and individuals. We understand that a car is a considerable investment, so we’ve produced this handy guide to selling vehicles on Auto Trader safely.\nBefore you advertise your car, it’s important to check you’re actually able to sell it. Any outstanding finance on the vehicle must be settled before you sell it on.\nIf you’re a dealer, valet, mechanic or business in the motor trade industry, you’ll know how vital it is to protect your vehicle, not only with reliable motor trade insurance\n, but also through regular, thorough upkeep. It goes without saying that you should only sell cars in tip-top condition.\nBefore advertising, ensure:\n- Your vehicle is spick and span, inside and out – empty crisp packets and smelly trainers aren’t appealing to buyers!\n- You’ve carried out a visual check, confirming the electrics are fully functional – this includes air-con, wipers, stereo and lights.\n- You check the tyres are in top condition, not forgetting the spare, should you have one.\n- You assess the mechanics are in good nick.\n- You consider getting any damage fixed – helps avoid quibbling with buyers.\n- Your car has recently had an MOT – this makes your vehicle more saleable.\n- You have the relevant paperwork: MOT certificates, the V5C logbook, details of any services or repairs carried out.\nFor car dealers, selling on Auto Trader provides access to a wider audience and increased exposure. The review function is a valuable aspect of the site, as it allows customers to offer feedback other potential buyers can look to when choosing a dealer. This is another reason to thoroughly prep your vehicles before sale, as positive feedback means more customers in the long run.\nOf course, increased exposure means increased risk of theft, vandalism or scams, so ensure dealership vehicles are covered by quality motor trade insurance\nThe V5C logbook\nWhether you’re a motor trade business or an individual selling a car, having an up to date V5C form\nThe V5C provides a record of the Registered Keeper of the vehicle – the person taxing and registering the vehicle. The Registered Keeper may not be the same as the owner, although this is often the case.\nIt also includes forms that must be completed and sent to the DVLA, should the registered keeper or car itself be altered.\nIf you’ve lost your V5C, visit the government website\nto apply for a replacement.\nHow much does it cost to place an Auto Trader ad?\nAuto Trader offers four packages in Great Britain, priced according to your car’s value:\nA two-week advert, including up to 20 photos.Advertising cost:\nCars up to £1,000 value: free\nCars £1,001-£10,000 value: £36.95\nCars over £10,000 value: £39.95\nA three-week advert, including up to 20 photos.

Follow these three simple steps:\nEnter your registration\nAuto Trader makes this process easy, automatically filling in details such as:\n- Body type\n- Fuel type\n- Make and model\n- Engine size\nAdd vehicle description and photos\nNow you’ll need to add photos of the vehicle, plus details for buyers to consider, such as service history, warranty information, MOT and mileage. You can also include any extra, optional features that might appeal to buyers, like heated seats, air-con, electric windows, rear parking sensors or sat-nav.\nIt’s worth noting, car dealers can also include details of the services they offer on their profile page - a good way to maximise profit and upsell to potential customers.\nRemember that mis-describing a car is illegal, so make sure you’re honest in your description, flagging any issues you’re aware of.\nIt doesn’t matter if you’re a car dealer or an individual seller, don’t forget to add your contact details clearly somewhere in the ad. Give a mobile, landline and website if you can.\n3 tips for a top advert\nYou may wonder why you’re only receiving a handful of enquiries once your car advert goes live. This may be because your ad isn’t clear or engaging enough.\nHere are some handy hints for making your Auto Trader ad as effective as possible.\nAuto Trader recommends between 50 and 75 words\nas the ideal advert length. While details such as why you’re selling or the number of previous owners may be interesting to potential buyers, ensure the information you provide is pithy and straightforward.\nKeep your description focused on the vehicle you’re selling: avoid waffle, clichés, block capitals and overly technical language. You want your ad to be an easy reading experience for buyers, most of whom will want a quick overview of the most relevant facts and figures.\nMake it visually appealing\nPhotos of a dirty car, taken on a rainy or overcast day, are less likely to entice potential buyers. Take a look at our photo-taking advice below to learn how to take the best shots.\nHow to take the perfect pictures\nVisuals play a huge part in the buyer’s journey, grabbing their attention and (hopefully) providing extra information related to the product they’re interested in.\nBuyers on Auto Trader will need to contact the sellers and arrange a viewing, if they’re interested in a car. All of this takes effort, so ensuring your advert has clear, appealing images makes buyers more likely to commit to a viewing.\nTo begin with, make sure your car is thoroughly cleaned. Try to use a good quality camera, able to take sharp shots that are in focus.\nPhotograph your vehicle on a dry, sunny day, in front of a relatively plain background. You want the car to be the main focus of your images, so avoid taking photos near other attention-grabbing objects or backdrops.\nPick a location in which you can photograph your vehicle from all angles with ease, and avoid taking snaps from a low crouch or high vantage point: you want the car to appear as it would when viewed from a natural height.Auto Trader\nrecommends taking plenty of pictures, including:\n- Front and rear corner\n- Side profile\n- Front and back head-on\n- Engine bay\n- Front and rear seats\n- Any damage\nIf you have a convertible, it’s a good idea to take shots of the vehicle with its roof both up and down so the customer can see that it works.\nSo, you’ve created the perfect car ad, now what? Once potential buyers start contacting you, you’ll need to arrange viewings.\nThere are several precautions you should take when showing your car, even if you’re an experienced dealer.\nMake sure the buyer is genuine\nWhether you’re a car dealer or an individual seller, remain consistently cautious when corresponding with buyers.\nAlways set up a meeting with the interested party, as they should want to see the car before making an offer. Ask any potential buyer for their contact information, such as their full home address, landline number and mobile number. Genuine buyers should have no problem complying.\nNever allow a potential buyer to test drive your car alone – always join them. Ensure you ask them to bring a valid driving licence to the viewing, should they wish to test drive the vehicle, and make sure they have the necessary insurance cover – you don’t want to risk liability for any damage.\nIf you’re a car dealer, having reliable motor trade insurance\nis a necessity, providing protection against risks such as targeted vehicle theft and accidental damage caused during test drives.\nHave all your paperwork to hand\nMany buyers will want to see a V5C form, an MOT certificate and a record of service history. They may want to check the mileage figure on an up-to-date MOT certificate or the address listed on the V5C form.\nMake sure you keep your keys in sight at all times, taking them out of the ignition as soon as the test drive is complete. When you make a sale, don’t release your vehicle, keys or important documents until payment has cleared in your bank account.\nIf you’re a private seller, or trading from home, don’t meet potential buyers in isolated or unfamiliar locations. Always arrange viewings somewhere familiar, such as your home or a public place you know well.\nHow to accept payment for your vehicle\nOnline bank transfers are the best way to receive payment, according to Auto Trader\n. These allow for quick payment, but they do involve handing your bank details over to the buyer, which you may not feel comfortable doing.\nYou’re entitled to accept cash, but it’s best to play it safe: arrange the cash handover to take place at a bank, this way staff can verify the authenticity of the notes and count them accurately.\nIf you’re happy to receive payment via banker’s draft or cheque, ensure you have proof of the buyer’s address and name before going ahead. This means you can contact them if there’s any delay. Don’t release your vehicle until the payment has cleared in your bank account.\nAnother option is an ESCROW, where a third party takes the role of mediator between you and the buyer, receiving and distributing the payment. If you choose to do this, contact the Financial Conduct Authority first and check the company you’re using is legitimate.\nNo matter what, remember to provide the buyer with a receipt, retaining a copy for yourself, too. Ensure you let the DVLA know of the change to the vehicle’s ownership status, sending them the bottom section of your V5C form, giving the top section to the buyer. Notify your insurance provider as well, then delete your advert.\nSo, now you know how to set up your Auto Trader advert, how to maximise your chance of a sale and how to safely close the deal.\nWhether or not you’re selling your car, vehicle ownership comes with risks. Around 468,315\nvehicle thefts were recorded in the UK between March 2018-2019. Test drives may result in damage or an accident.\nIf you’re a mechanic, valet, car dealer or business operating within the motor trade industry, the risk is even greater: your vehicles are your livelihood.

However, the financial implications of car ownership can be daunting. Between loan payments, gas, insurance, and maintenance costs, owning a car can quickly drain your savings. According to ValuePenguin’s analysis of 2020 U.S. Census Bureau data, 8.45% of U.S. households do not own a car, potentially due to these high costs.\nOne solution to this problem, particularly for those who want the convenience of a car without the financial burden of ownership, is car leasing. Leasing offers an alternative path to mobility—one that comes with its own set of advantages and considerations.\nThe Advantages of Leasing a Car\nLeasing a car can provide numerous benefits over purchasing a brand-new vehicle:\nLower Monthly Payments\nOne of the main advantages of leasing a car is that it typically involves lower monthly payments compared to purchasing a vehicle. When you lease, you’re only paying for the depreciation of the car during the lease term, not the entire value of the vehicle. This can make leasing an attractive option for those looking to drive a new car without committing to high monthly payments.\nDrive Newer Models\nLeasing allows drivers to consistently upgrade their vehicles every few years. This means you’ll always have access to the latest models equipped with the most recent technology and safety features. If staying up-to-date with automotive trends and technologies is important to you, leasing may be a good fit.\nFewer Maintenance Worries\nSince lease terms typically last for two to three years, the vehicle is often under warranty for the entire lease period. This can significantly reduce the cost and stress associated with car repairs and maintenance. Any major issues that arise are generally covered under the manufacturer’s warranty, providing peace of mind and financial protection.\nNo Resale Hassles\nUnlike owning a car, when you lease, there’s no need to worry about selling or trading in the vehicle when you’re ready for a new one. At the end of your lease term, you simply return the car to the dealership. This eliminates the hassle and potential stress of negotiating trade-in values or selling a used car on the private market.\nTiming Your Car Lease for Optimal Savings\nLeasing a car can be a financially savvy move, especially if you time it correctly. Dealerships often have specific periods throughout the year when they’re looking to clear out older inventory and meet sales quotas. These are opportune times to lease a car as dealerships typically offer attractive deals.\nHere’s a more detailed look at the best months for leasing a car:\nAs the year starts to wind down, dealerships begin to receive inventory for the next year’s models. This leads them to clear out the current year’s stock, often resulting in attractive lease deals, especially on models from the outgoing year.\nThe Black Friday shopping period isn’t exclusive to retail stores. Many car dealerships also offer significant savings during this time. It’s an excellent opportunity to explore lease offers as dealerships roll out special deals to draw in customers.\nWith the end of the year looming, dealerships are typically focused on meeting their annual sales targets. They often put forth enticing lease deals to boost their sales figures before the year concludes. Moreover, with next year’s models on the horizon, they have added motivation to clear their lots, leading to even better deals.\nEnd of Each Quarter (March, June, September, December)\nDealerships usually have quarterly sales targets in addition to their monthly and yearly goals. These quarter-end periods can be opportune times to lease a car, as dealerships might offer improved deals to meet these targets.\nHoliday Weekends (Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc.)\nDealerships frequently run promotional sales during extended holiday weekends. These occasions can present excellent opportunities to lease a car, as you might find special lease deals that go beyond standard offers.\nNew Year’s Day\nDespite signaling the start of a new calendar year, New Year’s Day can still be a fruitful time to lease a car. Dealerships might be striving to clear remaining inventory from the previous year and meet any leftover sales targets.\nEnd of the Model Year\nWhile this doesn’t map to a specific month, the end of a model year is generally a good time to lease. This period comes when car manufacturers release new models, prompting dealerships to offer appealing deals to clear space for the incoming inventory.\nHowever, there are also less favorable times to lease a car:\nNew Model Release\nWhen a car manufacturer releases a new model, it often results in a frenzy of excitement and demand. During this period, the supply of the new model might not meet the high demand, causing lease prices to surge. Waiting a few months for the initial excitement to die down can often result in more favorable lease terms as dealerships have more inventory and are more inclined to negotiate.\nEarly in the Model Year\nThe early part of the model year isn’t usually the best time to lease a car. Dealerships often have a lot of inventory during this time and aren’t under pressure to move last year’s models. This means they might be less willing to offer attractive lease deals or negotiate on price.\nSpring and Summer Months\nWarmer weather tends to bring out more car shoppers, leading to increased demand. With more potential customers, dealerships may not feel the need to offer as many enticing lease deals. The spring and summer months also coincide with tax refund season when people might have extra cash to spend, potentially driving up prices.\nBeginning of the Month\nThe start of a new month is typically a less advantageous time to lease a car. Dealerships have a whole month ahead to meet their sales targets and might not be as motivated to offer great deals. On the other hand, the end of the month can often be a good time to lease as dealerships might be more eager to close deals to hit their sales quotas.\nDuring Major Product Recalls\nIf a car model is undergoing a major recall, it could affect lease prices. The reduced availability of that model could lead to higher demand for other models, potentially increasing their lease prices.\nRemember that these are general guidelines and actual lease prices can vary depending on various factors, including individual dealership promotions and local market conditions. It’s always a good idea to do thorough research and shop around before committing to a lease agreement to ensure you’re getting the best deal possible.\nWrapping Up: Tips for Securing the Best Car Lease Deal\nUnderstanding the best times to lease a car can provide a significant advantage when it comes to negotiating your lease terms. However, while timing plays a crucial role, there are other factors to consider to ensure you secure the best car lease deal:\nSpend time researching different car models, lease terms, and dealerships. Knowledge is power when it comes to negotiating.\nUnderstand Your Needs\nKnow what kind of car you need, how long you want the lease for, and how many miles you drive annually. Tailoring your lease to your specific needs can help avoid costly overage charges.\nDon’t be afraid to negotiate. The sticker price isn’t always final, and there’s often room for negotiation.\nDon’t settle for the first deal you find. Shop around at different dealerships and compare prices to ensure you’re getting the best deal.\nRead the Fine Print\nMake sure you understand all the terms of your lease agreement before signing. Look out for any hidden fees or charges that could add up over time.\nRemember, the best lease deal for you is one that fits your budget, meets your driving needs, and gives you the flexibility you desire. By considering these tips and timing your lease strategically, you’re well on your way to securing a fantastic car lease deal.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://chnj.gov/FAQ.aspx?QID=76", "date": "2023-12-04T12:06:50Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20231204115419-20231204145419-00383.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9315646290779114, "token_count": 113, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-50", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-50__0__209836441", "lang": "en", "text": "Red light running is one of the major causes of collisions, deaths, and injuries at signalized intersections in the U.S. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that 20% of drivers do not obey intersection signals.\nCrashes caused by red light running result in more than 800 fatalities and 165,000 injuries each year, according to the NHTSA.

Yes, new vans can be pricey, with some models available for nearly $50,000, but you can find a high-quality used minivan at surprisingly good prices now. To prove it, we’ve rounded up our favorite used minivans available today for a budget-friendly $10,000 or less.\n2008-2010 Dodge Grand Caravan\nFully redesigned for the 2008 model year, the Dodge Grand Caravan offers a spacious interior and three available V6 engines. While fuel economy is disappointing — even the most efficient powertrain achieves only 17 miles per gallon in the city and 25 mpg on the highway — we like the standard safety features, which include side-curtain airbags, anti-lock brakes and traction control. We also like the van’s long list of options, which includes a backup camera, rear parking sensors and rear cross-traffic alert. If you’re interested, you should have no trouble finding a Grand Caravan in this price range, as the average asking price for a 2008-2010 model on Autotrader is just over $10,000.\n2005-2007 Honda Odyssey\nThe Honda Odyssey is a perennial favorite minivan thanks to its ultra-roomy interior, a long list of modern conveniences and a powerful yet efficient standard engine. We especially love the 2005-2007 model, as it offers more of everything (including interior space and modern convenience features) compared to the original sliding door Odyssey, which lasted from 1999 to 2004, without a hefty price premium. Currently, there are nearly 1,800 different 2005 to 2007 Odyssey models available on Autotrader for around $10,000 or less, which makes this reliable minivan surprisingly affordable, too.\n2007-2008 Hyundai Entourage\nOne way to find a good deal on a minivan is to buy a model few drivers have heard about, such as the Hyundai Entourage, a mechanical twin of the Kia Sedona, which was only sold for the 2007 and 2008 model years. Despite its low sales volume, the Entourage had some major benefits, such as a powerful 242-horsepower V6, standard side-curtain airbags, anti-lock brakes and options including dual power-sliding doors, leather upholstery, power adjustable pedals, parking sensors and a DVD entertainment system. You’ll have to find a high-end model to take advantage of those features, but with more than 170 different examples of the 2007-2008 Entourage currently listed on Autotrader for around $10,000 or less, you should have a wide selection.\nAlthough the 2012 Mazda5 is smaller than most minivans, its size comes with a few benefits. One of them is fuel economy, as the 157-hp 4-cylinder Mazda5 returns an excellent 21 mpg city/28 mpg hwy, which is far better than V6-powered vans. We also like its ease of parking and excellent maneuverability, making it perfect for city life. For the equipment, we especially like the Grand Touring model, which boasts excellent features, such as automatic xenon headlights, automatic wipers, leather upholstery and heated front seats. You should have no trouble finding one, too, as there are currently 65 different 2012 Mazda5 models on Autotrader for around $10,000 or less, and far more are available if you’re willing to consider the van’s first-generation model, which was offered from 2006 to 2010.\n2006-2009 Nissan Quest\nGet past its unusual styling and you’ll find the 2006-2009 Nissan Quest is one of the most endearing vans on the market. It has a long list of equipment, especially in upscale SE models, which include dual power-sliding doors, alloy wheels, rear park assist, leather upholstery, Bluetooth, a 10-speaker Bose audio system and more. We also like the Quest’s reliable 3.5-liter V6 engine, which has consistently proven itself in a wide variety of Nissan models, and its reasonable pricing, as there are currently 435 different 2006-2009 Quest models available on Autotrader for around $10,000 or less.\n2004-2007 Toyota Sienna\nDon’t let its age fool you: The 2004-2007 Toyota Sienna is among the most reliable used minivans on our list, thanks to a dependable Toyota drivetrain finding its way into millions of the brand’s cars, SUVs and vans over the years. We also like the Sienna’s available all-wheel drive, seating for up to eight passengers and a fold-flat third-row seat. While the Sienna tends to be pricier than other vans, you should have no trouble finding a 2004-2007 model within this budget, as there are currently more than 1,600 different examples listed on Autotrader across the country for around $10,000 or less.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.bmxinternational.com.au/Script/MCH/SHOPProductP.asp?ObjectID=A5E04147-386D-45C6-832D-159327455AE7&ViewOnly=1", "date": "2019-05-22T03:46:03Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-22/segments/1558232256724.28/warc/CC-MAIN-20190522022933-20190522044933-00243.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8981605172157288, "token_count": 148, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-22", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-22__0__191235308", "lang": "en", "text": "This is the original cable that Odyssey launched in 1986.

As the rest of the world pushes for the adoption of electric vehicles, North America seems to be behind the curve. In this article, we look at why this might be, and how the future of electric transportation might affect that.\nElectric vehicles around the world.\nAround the world, electric vehicles (EVs) are growing in popularity. In December of 2021, Europe saw the sales of EVs overtake the sale of diesel cars for the first time. China is experiencing similar growth in the EV industry.\nIn the United States, growth is more stagnant. According to Wired, EVs “made up just 4 percent of vehicles sale last year. While the world falls in love with electric cars, the US is holding out.”\nProjections aren’t great, either. Bank of America forecasts that EVs will make up just 20% of the U.S. car market by 2030, rather than the nation’s public goal of 50%.\nEV adoption is pressing, but not simple.\nWith the rising price of gas, and the reality that transportation is a huge contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, adopting electric vehicles sounds like a great solution. However, EV adoption has not proven as simple as it sounds.\nSome of the barriers include:\n- Social resistance, and reluctance to change from the familiarity of “fill up with gas and go” vehicles.\n- The price of individual electric vehicles – an electric Ford Focus, for example, is nearly twice the cost of a gas-powered one.\n- A lack of overall awareness among consumers regarding the strengths of EVs.\n- Lack of governmental enforcement regarding carbon emissions initiatives.\n- Lack of accessible charging point infrastructure across the country.\nDespite all these barriers, research has shown that Americans want electric vehicles, and would be more likely to adopt them quickly if they were more affordable. The reality is similar in Canada, with 71% of consumers saying they’d consider an EV for their next vehicle, but 90% feeling they still have to do more research to address their concerns.\nCars aren’t the only transportation pushing towards electrification.\nWhile your business might not be able to afford purchasing electric company cars, what about a ticket on an electric plane for future business trips? Believe it or not, this reality might be sooner than you think.\nIn fact, according to Afar, “ airlines like United and EasyJet are onboard as early adopters, with the first U.S. commercial routes slated for 2026.”\nAgain, with electrified planes, the U.S. is slated to be a bit behind global electric leaders in regards to adoption. For example, Denmark and Sweden plan to make all domestic flights fossil fuel-free by 2030.\nWhat will flying electric be like?\nThere are still some kinks to work out of electric planes. As Afar explains, “today’s batteries aren’t nearly as energy-dense as jet fuel, requiring bulk and weight that pose significant aerodynamic challenges.”\nWhat this means is, smaller batteries – suitable for shorter flights – shouldn’t pose much of an issue. Short domestic flights are very doable with electric planes. However, larger planes and longer routes will be more difficult, and farther away in the future.\nEven with just shorter flights being covered by electric planes, this has the potential to reduce fuel expenses and carbon emissions for the aviation industry significantly. Roughly half of the flight routes operated worldwide today are less than 500 miles.\nElectric fleets are a transnational conundrum.\nLike planes, long-haul trucks are another transportation sector headed in the direction of electrification. But how quickly and smoothly will that transition happen?\nIn North America, that will entirely depend on transnational cooperation. Because so much of long-haul trucking involved crossing borders, there will need to be some uniformity between American and Canadian policy on electric trucks in order for it to be worth it for operations on both sides of the border.\nHowever, Canada plans to electrify all heavy-duty trucks by 2040.\nDespite its varying speed across the globe, electrification is inevitable. The events of 2022 so far have shown the difficulties of relying on fuel, despite the existing challenges that still remain in EV adoption. However, as the decade continues, we can expect to see more progress towards electrification.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://kcsmartport.thinkkc.com/news/blog/kc-smartport-blog/2017/01/31/kc-is-a-top-5-city-for-jobs", "date": "2017-04-24T15:08:29Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917119637.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031159-00363-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9444577693939209, "token_count": 123, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-17", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-17__0__36541350", "lang": "en", "text": "ZipRecruiter analyzed its hiring data to find out which cities and industries hold 2017’s best career opportunities.

How long does a typical car battery last?A typical car battery lasts between 3 to 5 years. However, this can vary based on several factors, including the climate, the type of vehicle, driving habits, and how well the battery is maintained.\n2. What factors affect the lifespan of a car battery?Several factors can impact the lifespan of a car battery, including:\n- Climate: Extreme temperatures (both hot and cold) can shorten battery life.\n- Driving Habits: Frequent short trips prevent the battery from fully charging.\n- Vehicle Electrical Load: Using accessories like the stereo, lights, and charging devices can drain the battery faster.\n- Maintenance: Failing to keep battery terminals clean and secure can lead to premature battery failure.\n- Storage: Long periods of inactivity can negatively affect battery health.\n3. Can extreme weather really damage my car battery?\nYes, extreme temperatures can significantly impact your car battery's performance and lifespan. High temperatures can cause the battery fluid to evaporate, leading to internal damage, while cold temperatures can reduce the battery's ability to provide sufficient power to start the engine.\n4. How can I tell if my car battery is starting to fail?\nSigns of a failing car battery include difficulty starting the engine, dimming headlights and interior lights, electrical issues, a swollen battery case, and the age of the battery (if it's over three years old, it's wise to have it tested regularly).\n5. What can I do to extend the life of my car battery?\nTo extend the life of your car battery:\n- Keep the battery and its terminals clean and free from corrosion.\n- Ensure the battery is securely mounted to minimize vibration.\n- Avoid using electronics like the radio or air conditioner when the engine isn't running.\n- Drive your vehicle regularly to prevent the battery from losing charge.\n- Consider using a battery maintainer if you won't be using your vehicle for an extended period.\n6. Is it necessary to replace a car battery after a certain number of years?\nWhile some car batteries can last more than five years, it's generally recommended to replace your car battery every 3 to 5 years to avoid the risk of battery failure and potential inconvenience.\n7. How do I properly dispose of a car battery?\nCar batteries contain harmful chemicals and should be disposed of properly. Many auto parts stores and recycling centers accept old batteries for recycling. Some places may even offer a small refund or discount on a new battery when you recycle your old one.\n8. Can a bad car battery affect the performance of the vehicle?\nYes, a failing car battery can lead to poor performance. It may cause difficulty in starting the engine, dimming of lights, and can affect the functionality of electronic components in the vehicle.\n9. How often should I check my car battery?\nIt's a good idea to check your car battery at least twice a year for signs of wear or corrosion, especially before summer and winter, as extreme temperatures can affect battery performance.\n10. Can jump-starting a car damage the battery?\nJump-starting a car can be safe if done correctly, but doing it improperly can damage the battery or the vehicle's electrical system. Always follow the proper procedure and consult your vehicle's manual for guidance.\nWhile the average lifespan of a car battery is 3 to 5 years, understanding and mitigating the factors that affect battery health can help you maximize its lifespan.\nRegular maintenance and mindful usage can extend the life of your battery, ensuring your vehicle starts reliably and keeps you moving.\nRemember, being proactive about battery care can prevent the inconvenience and cost of unexpected battery failure.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://americanfork.gov/FAQ.aspx?QID=141", "date": "2024-03-01T09:57:14Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947475238.84/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301093751-20240301123751-00629.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.891582727432251, "token_count": 1180, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-10__0__62129901", "lang": "en", "text": "Street legal ATVs can be driven within the city, following the below city code.

When I purchased the bike it was in good condition. I cleaned and tuned it up just in time for my junior and senior year of college. I rode my new moped up the big hill to campus and around town with a smile ear to ear. It was great for commuting and zipping around town.\nOne day when I was riding home between classes, I got stuck in traffic. I hit the the throttle hard and took off, but traffic started to come to a stop. I let go of the throttle but nothing happened, the moped continued on full speed ahead. And soon I was going to be crumpled into the back of a yellow VW bug! I ditched the bike and slid down the road. The throttle cable had become pinched in the steering column. I was banged up, the bike was banged up, and I limped it home by shutting the ignition on and off as I went down the hill to control my speed. I dented the tank pretty good, broke the head light, bent a pedal arm, and screwed up the controls. I was strapped for time while in school, so I did the bare minimum to get it back together but I always had a dream of restoring it.\nFast forward to 2016. I had some time and I was looking for a project. I thought why not see what I can make of this moped. I went all out with it.\nI started this process by breaking the bike down and stripping it to the frame. I found a guy in California that would repair the dents in the tank, one of the few people that does this in the US. I then found a friend who owns an auto body shop to paint the tank and a few spare parts. I decided on a gun metal gray paint as I wanted the bike to have an enduro motorcycle look.\nI upgraded the suspension to off road suspension, it lifted the bike a good 3-4” higher than its previous stance. I rebuilt the motor and bumped the displacement to 64cc’s and installed a larger 15mm carb. I machined the lower cases to match the new air intake channels. I polished the exhaust and intake ports. The bike was switched over to a 100w magneto with electronic ignition system. A new light weight crank shaft was installed for higher revs and a new clutch for better acceleration. I re-geared the bike to have good low end power. I put on a MLM side bleed expansion pipe for more power. New fenders for the off road look. New angel eye head light, off road tires, and temp indicator. I had the whole frame sand blasted and powder coated gloss black.\nThe bike is a dream come true and really rips. The clutch needs a bit of tweaking when I get more time. So far my speed tests show about a 12mph increase with a top speed around 47mph. This project was full of frustrations and fun but blasting down the road sure was worth it!", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.rvconnection.com.au/insurance-work", "date": "2019-09-24T08:57:38Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-39/segments/1568514572896.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20190924083200-20190924105200-00189.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.95076984167099, "token_count": 167, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-39", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-39__0__71105773", "lang": "en", "text": "Has your caravan, motorhome or camper been damaged from an accident or storms?\nRV Connection's qualified technicians can certainly assist to repair your vehicle to 'as new' again!\nWe are a recommended insurance repair agent, proud to complete repairs for insurance companies including, and not limited to:\nWe'll complete the required work to the standard that your RV was prior to the insurance claim!\nWe'll also undertake the communication with the insurer and keep you up to date every step of the way.\nWe have an extremely qualified Workshop Team and are your Hail Repair Specialists.\nAlternatively, if you're looking for an insurance quote, we'll assist any way we can.

An electric car is a vehicle powered by an electric motor which runs on a system of rechargeable batteries.(These are at present of the lead-acid variety, although new types, including zinc-chlorine, sodium-sulphur and fuel cells, are being developed.) The motor converts the battery’s electrical energy into kinetic energy. The driver simply switches on the power, selects “Forward” or “Reverse”, and steps on the accelerator pedal.\nLike gasoline-powered cars, electric vehicles have a system of gears, shafts, and joints to transmit motion from the motor to the car wheels. However, they do not have clutches or multi-speed transmission. In order to go backwards, the flow of electricity through the motor is reversed, changing the rotation of the motor and causing the power train to make the wheels reverse direction. Moreover, they do not have the high number of moving parts that an internal-combustion engine has, since the electric motor has only a single rotating element.\nMACCHINE ELETTRICHE, TESINA\nIn most electric cars, the braking system acts as a battery charger. When drivers take their feet off the accelerator, the motor acts as a generator, converting the energy produced by the movement of the vehicle back into electricity and storing it in the battery. This conversion of kinetic energy into electric energy slows the car. To stop the car quickly, however, there is also a brake pedal and a traditional braking system which works on the wheels.\nIn the early days of automobiles, electric cars were serious rivals to gasoline cars. The first automobile to exceed 100 km an hour was an electric car (Camille Janatzy’s La Jamais Contente, 1899). In 1900, 40% of U.S. cars were powered by steam, 38% by electricity and only 22% by gasoline (petrol). The gasoline car was unreliable and noisy. Moreover, it had to be started by hand crank, and this made it difficult to operate. The electric car, on the other hand, was silent, self-starting and needed minimal maintenance, but it was limited by its short range (50-60 km) and its dependence on recharging equipment. Eventually, it was another application of battery power, the electric self-starter, that helped to make the gasoline car more attractive, especially for women motorists.\nTESINA SVOLTA SULL'AUTOMOBILE\nElectric cars began to reappear in the 1960s as an answer to problems of air pollution in city centres, and in the 1970s, as a result of oil shortages. Since then, several car manufactures (Ford, Nissan, Volkswagen) have included electric cars in their range. More recently, in 1996, General Motors Corporation announced the first modern, mass-produced car designed specifically as an electric car (until then, electric cars were generally created by replacing the gasoline engines and fuel tanks of conventional cars with electric motors and batteries).", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://nylrl.com/the-ferrari-purosangue/", "date": "2023-10-05T03:19:46Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511717.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20231005012006-20231005042006-00633.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8808378577232361, "token_count": 708, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-40__0__92574709", "lang": "en", "text": "Slightly over $400,000.00 Canadian\nPrepare to witness the fusion of Italian passion, engineering excellence, and uncompromising luxury with the remarkable Ferrari Purosangue.

Whether it is clutch repair or clutch replacement, Derham’s Alignment is your one-stop auto repair shop. Clutches, like so many other parts in a vehicle, wear out over time. The rate of clutch wear depends on several factors: personal driving style, geographic landscape in which you drive, road conditions and weather conditions. If your clutch has worn down to where it is no longer effective, your vehicle will require a clutch replacement.\nWilmington, NC Clutch Repair\nClutch repair is generally considered a clutch replacement because in most cases, the clutch can’t be repaired. However, there are certain circumstances in which you can repair, or adjust the clutch rather than having it replaced. In some cases, you may only need to have certain parts replaced, which may be a cheaper proposition.\nA clutch adjustment may be all that is needed if you hear a grinding noise as you shift. This could simply be the clutch not completely disengaging from the the transmission. An adjustment to the clutch will not only fix the grinding noise, but prevent additional wear and tear on the clutch disc.\nWilmington NC Clutch Replacement\nIn many cases, it is necessary to replace the clutch altogether. Clutches have a usage life that depends on many factors. In near perfect conditions, you may expect a clutch to last 100,000 miles, but tough conditions can reduce this as low as 25,000 miles. There are many different components that make up your clutch. In some cases, clutch failure may be the result of one component failing or multiple components. Our experienced technicians can review and diagnose any clutch repair or replacement issue in the early stages to save you the most money possible and get your vehicle back to top performance.\nHow to Spot Clutch Problems\nProblems with your clutch can produce symptoms with vehicle performance. For this reason, the longer you let the clutch problems linger, the more it can cost you. Here are a few signs that you may have problems with your vehicle’s clutch.\n- Poor gas mileage\n- Trouble climbing hills (having to downshift more)\n- Engine revs up as you start to put the car into motion (or when you attempt to accelerate)\n- The clutch feels still\n- Clutch can no longer be adjusted to provide pedal slack\nThe cost to repair or replace your clutch will depend upon several variables. The extent of the problems and the type of vehicle will determine what is needed and the cost.

Whether you’re buying a used car from a dealer or an independent owner, thoroughly checking the car inside and out can protect you from a serious red flag (or several). This is the complete car inspection checklist for buyers conducting searches for high-quality used cars on a budget.\nInterior and Exterior Visual Inspection\nFor the first part of your used car inspection, take a walk around the car’s exterior and look for signs that could signify frame damage, such as rust, dents, and scratches. According to CARFAX, stand behind the vehicle and look for uneven body panels, usually a sign of poor repair work after an accident. Mismatched paint also indicates substandard bodywork. Open and close each of the doors of the used vehicle and the trunk to make sure they glide smoothly.\nThe vehicle’s tires can also provide clues about its overall condition. Inspect each one carefully for scuff marks, bulges, cracks, and sufficient tread with even wear. If you notice a different brand on one of the tires, ask the seller why it was swapped out.\nNext, inspect the inside of the vehicle for damaged upholstery or other undue wear and tear. A moldy smell is a sign of water damage, often caused by a leak. The upholstery and floor mats should be clean and free of stains.\nTake the car for a test drive before buying a used car. When you take a spin, use this checklist to guide your evaluation:\n- Do you have enough room in the car, especially if you are tall or large?\n- Do you feel comfortable while driving? Are the seats easy to adjust?\n- Can you see well while driving? Do you have noticeable blind spots when you check the mirrors?\n- Do you smell gas, oil, or other odors that could indicate fluid leaks or other issues under the hood?\n- Do the turn signals, brake lights, headlights, and heating and air conditioning systems work correctly?\n- Do you notice any unusual engine noises such as clanking or banging? Does the engine accelerate as expected?\nA vehicle history report from CARFAX or a similar agency provides detailed information that can reveal potential problems with a car you plan to buy. You just need the vehicle identification number (VIN) to request this type of report. If you purchase a used car from a dealer, you can often request the sales representative’s vehicle report.\nThe report will include data from public motor vehicle record and other sources, such as the vehicles:\n- Fire, flood, or other weather damage\n- Status of the car title\n- Maintenance records\n- Ownership, registration, and inspection history\n- Mileage readings\nHaving the facts can protect you from buying a lemon. You may also want to check the Kelley Blue Book value of the car, which can provide information about whether the price tag matches a fair price for that car’s make and model.\nYou can only tell so much about preowned cars without a professional opinion. If the car checks out after you review the items above, take it to a mechanic you trust for advice.\nCar buyers should get permission to drive the car off the lot and have an independent inspection. Sellers who refuse likely have something to hide, such as poorly done repairs or odometer issues.\nIf you’re making this type of purchase and you don’t know where to get an expert opinion, contact Highline Car Care in the Gilbert area. We help our customers in Mesa and surrounding areas make sure that used cars are working properly before they buy these vehicles. If the price is right and low mileage looks good, bring the vehicle to our team for a thorough inspection when buying used.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.goecknerbros.net/?hl=en&source=hp&q=goeknerbrothers&aq=f&oq=&aqi=", "date": "2017-04-27T20:45:10Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917122621.35/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031202-00343-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8992075324058533, "token_count": 583, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-17", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-17__0__189346240", "lang": "en", "text": "Come see why we're the longest-running dealership in Effingham,\nand one of the longest-running Chrysler Dealerships in the whole country!\nIf you're interested in a new 2016-2017 Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM model, Commercial Truck or Van, or used car and live in the Effingham, IL area, you're in luck!

There are the interests of the Insurance companies trying to reduce their losses and obviously that of the Police Force fighting crime. Because of the varied nature of Vehicle Crime there are many approaches to crime prevention and there are many companies now producing a wide variety of crime prevention methods, but there is one common denominator, cost effectiveness.\nThis suggests that before taking any crime prevention measures a risk assessment should be made together with the costs involved. These costs should not only include the loss of a vehicle, goods or property but also an inconvenience factor, a possible loss of earnings, and even the trauma often associated with Vehicle Crime.\nThere are many sources of information available on Crime Prevention methods, through the Motoring Press and Police Crime Prevention publications and there are two non-profit making organisations, Thatcham and the Vehicle Security Installation Board (VSIB), both specialising in the standards for Vehicle Security.\nThatcham is the Insurance companies own testing house that sets the standard and test and accredits security products. This enables insurance companies to recognise good security when assessing premiums and in some cases discount the insurance premium to those customers investing in good security. Thatcham have accredited security products for Cars and Light Commercial Vehicles, Heavy Goods Vehicles and Motorcycles.\nThe VSIB is responsible for the industry’s own Codes of Practice for the installation of security to, Cars and Light commercial Vehicles, Heavy Goods Vehicles, Motorcycles and is in the process of developing a code for the installation of security to Plant. It is recognised that no matter how good a security product is if it is not installed correctly it is of no value. To counter this the VSIB accredits Vehicle Security Installation Companies that can prove they can operate to the Code of Practice as they monitor an Accredited Company’s standard of work and customer satisfaction. These Accredited Companies issue an embossed VSIB certificate for every installation they complete. When the product installed is a Thatcham approved system, it will satisfy any Insurance Company requirements.\nSpecific Vehicle Crime\nThe Opportunist Theft\nThe Opportunist theft is the simplest form of vehicle related crime. It is, as its name suggests, the thief stealing a vehicle or goods from a vehicle when the opportunity is presented. This is possibly the easiest to prevent, as the owner of the vehicle is usually responsible for presenting the opportunity to the thief in the first place.\nSimply locking the vehicle at all times, even when paying for petrol at the petrol station forecourt, or when just going back into the house when you have forgotten something, is essential. Not leaving valuable items in the vehicle, or if you must, certainly not leaving them on show. Lock them in the boot, a thief will look under seats and in glove boxes. Consideration should also be given when parking a vehicle. The government are encouraging secure car parks with gate controls and CCTV. These should be used. Park under street lamps or in well used areas, not in dark secluded back streets.\nFit a mechanical steering wheel lock or gear lever lock, or have passive arming two-circuit immobiliser fitted to prevent the thief from driving the vehicle away. (The passive arming feature means the system arms itself after the ignition is turned off so it is impossible to forget to arm the system).\nHave a remote controlled alarm system fitted, these can include the passive arming two-circuit immobiliser. Make sure a visible indication has been fitted to act as a deterrent, (e.g. stickers in the windows that show an alarm is fitted, but not which make), and a visible indication is armed, (usually a flashing light on the dash board). But if this is fitted always remember to arm the system as it is also an indication, when not flashing, that the system is disarmed. If the vehicle has it’s own central locking it is a good idea to have an alarm system fitted that can be connected to lock/unlock the vehicle when the alarm system is armed/disarmed. This convenience feature will help insure the system is always armed when you leave the vehicle.\nThere are many features available to combine with an alarm system such as the closure of electric windows and sunroof when the system is armed (it is even possible to close the electrically operated hood of some convertible cars), or the detection of the vehicle being jacked up to steal wheels and tyres, and the possibility of a pager to inform the driver when away from the vehicle that it is being tampered with. There are even on the market systems with multi-channel remote controllers which apart from being used to arm and disarm the security system they can open the vehicle owners own electrically operated driveway gates or garage doors.\nThe “professional” theft is more difficult to combat. Unlike the opportunist thief who looks for the easy steal to present itself they will go to great lengths to target specific vehicles or commercial cargoes. They will have in place efficient methods to dispose of a vehicle, or it’s cargo quickly, to change a vehicles identity or dismantle it for spare parts, to export it, or even hide it for future use in another crime.\nAgain an assessment needs to be made of the specific risks involved in relation to the vehicles value and use. There is another factor involved in this assessment and that is of the personal risk that may be involved for the owner or operator of the vehicle where there is the possibility of the vehicle being hi-jacked.\nThe requirements of insurance companies have more relevance with the higher risk vehicles and cargoes, even to the extent of certain levels of security being mandatory before a policy is issued. Physical security is an important element of theft prevention particularly for commercial vehicles. This can take the form of additional high security locks, window bars or grills, padlocks and even a safe fixed into the vehicle.\nElectronic security can range from immobilisation of the engine and fuel systems to, in the case of heavy goods vehicles, preventing the release of the air brakes after the hand brake has been applied. There are alarm systems that can be programmed to suit the operation of the vehicle, systems that automatically arm themselves when the operator leaves the vehicle. Systems that automatically arm the load space of a vehicle while leaving the driver’s area disarmed so the vehicle can be driven with the cargo secured (it has been known for goods to be stolen from a vehicle while it is stationary at traffic lights).\nAnother option is a silent alarm system that can activate a warning to a control centre. This would also incorporate a tracking device so the control centre can pinpoint the location of the vehicle and direct the police to intercept the stolen vehicle. With some more sophisticated versions of this system the control centre can immobilise the vehicle when it is next stationary or slowly reduce the vehicles power until it comes to a halt.\nIn the case of commercial vehicles it is always important to consider the use of the vehicle. A multi-drop delivery vehicle would have different requirements to a long haul single drop vehicle. With due respect to the vehicle driver, he is not necessarily the owner of the vehicle or it’s cargo so his attitude to security may be casual. It is therefore important to remove the need to arm or lock the vehicle by installing systems that arm themselves when the vehicle is left unattended, (automatic alarm systems) and lock themselves when the doors are shut (slam-locks). This only leaves the driver the task of disarming the system and unlocking the door when gaining entry to the vehicle.\nThere are many ways to make the operation of the security system convenient for the vehicle operator, such as transponders attached to the vehicles keys to eliminate the need to physically mobilise the vehicle, remote radio operation of disarming the system and unlocking the vehicle, and even a transponder attached to the drivers person so the vehicle is able to recognise the legal operator of the vehicle before it mobilises.\nVehicle security is very complex subject and it is important to get as much information as possible before making risk assessment and deciding on the level of security needed for the particular vehicle and it’s operation. It is recognised that cost effectiveness is important but be sure to include all the potential costs of loss of the vehicle in your assessment.

Jump\n- Which Car Should I Get After A Driving Conviction? Jump\n- Which Driving Convictions Have the Biggest Impact On My Insurance? Jump\n- Where Can I Get More Information? Jump\nTrying to get car insurance after you’ve had a run-in with the law can be stressful. It’s confusing, it feels like everything is more expensive, and some insurance companies won’t talk to you at all.\nBut before you go rummaging for bus timetables, I’ve got good news! It is possible to get affordable car insurance after a conviction.\nI’ve put together this handy guide to help break down the world of car insurance for you. I’ll take you through the basics, give you some quick tips on how to snag the best deal for you, and help you understand your conviction code.\nWhat Do Penalty Points Mean For My Car Insurance?\nIf you have ever got a few penalty points or even a conviction on your driving record, you might have noticed that your car insurance bill is looking a bit scarier. You might even have found that some insurance companies won’t consider giving you a policy at all.\nThis happens because car insurance companies calculate the cost of your premiums based on how much of a risk you are. So, if you have a few endorsements to your name – endorsements are penalty points, etc. – car insurers assume that you are more likely to make an expensive claim on your insurance.\nYou could argue that this is just common sense. Anyone who commits driving offences regularly drives a bit dangerously, so is more likely to be involved in a collision. Someone with a clean record, on the other hand, is much more likely to drive safely with respect for the law and other road users.\nUsually, you need to disclose your conviction codes when you renew or start a new policy. From this code, your insurers will know what your conviction is and how much of a perceived risk you pose. If your insurance premiums are going to get more expensive, they’re going to get more expensive now.\nWill Penalty Points Make Car Insurance Unaffordable?\nPenalty points will increase the cost of your car insurance, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’ll become unaffordable.\nFrom my own research, I can tell you that your car insurance is likely to increase by at least 25% as soon as you get points on your license. This is the most dramatic increase that you’re likely to see on your insurance. Extra points and convictions will increase the cost of your premiums, but not as much as this initial step up.\nKeep in mind that this isn’t personal. There isn’t someone sitting at a desk reading your file and working out how risky you are. It’s all computer-generated. The information that you provide these insurance companies groups you with people who have inputted similar information.\nThose who have similar information or driving histories are usually a similar risk to the insurance company. The biggest indicator of risk for the insurance company is a history of penalty points or driving convictions. Basically, you’re going to be put in the same group as other people with your conviction codes. This group are all going to have premiums that are similar costs.\nI’ll go into more detail in a moment, but other common risk factors that are associated with risky and, therefore, expensive drivers include your car’s make and model, and your age. Even without any convictions, a 20-year-old driving a BMW 1 Series with modifications will have more expensive insurance than a 40-year-old driving a Skoda.\nBut what does this mean? Well, you might be able to make your insurance a bit cheaper by limiting the number or risk categories that you fall into. Swapping your car for a less powerful model could be your first step.\nDo My Insurance Providers Need to Know About My Driving Record?\nYou need to tell your insurance company about any points or convictions on your driving record. It’s a criminal offence under the Road Traffic Act 1998 to deliberately not tell your insurance company, especially if they ask you directly.\nYou can’t not tell anyone and cross your fingers that your insurance is cheap! Withholding this vital information can be classed as misrepresentation, which will invalidate your insurance on top of being illegal.\nChecking the terms of your contract is a good idea because you don’t always have to tell your insurance company immediately. It’s quite common to only need to tell your insurance company when you renew your policy or start a new one.\nBut you need to tell your insurers immediately if you are banned from driving. Bans typically happen after you have racked up 12 points or more in a 3-year window. It’s actually illegal to not tell your insurance company when you’ve been banned.\nFortunately, spent convictions will not have an impact on your car insurance. You don’t have to tell your insurers about your spent driving convictions, even if they ask.\nHow Do I Find Cheap Car Insurance With Penalty Points?\nTrying to find insurance after a driving conviction or penalty points can be a nightmare. It’s expensive, and some companies won’t deal with you at all. What do you do?\nWell, from what I’ve seen, your best bet is to shop around as much as possible. Getting as many quotes from as many different insurance providers as possible will help increase the likelihood that you snag a good deal.\nRemember, each insurance company has its own rules and rates. So, a certain conviction might bump up your rate more with one company than another. Keep looking, and you just might find the best deal for you!\nAside from shopping around, here are some other things that you can do to help lower the cost of your car insurance:\n- Get a different car: As I mentioned above, BMW 1 Series with modifications are more expensive to insure than Skodas, no matter how old you are. It might be drastic, but a cheaper insurance group for your car can make a massive difference to the cost of your insurance.\n- Black box insurance: You can give your insurance provider more information about your driving style by installing a black box. Black boxes or telematics monitor your driving and how well you stick to the Highway Code and other road laws. The more information they have on you, the less your perceived risk, and the cheaper your insurance should be.\n- Add extra drivers to your policy: Adding an experienced driver with a clean record to your policy can help lower your premiums, especially for young drivers. Getting an experienced driver on your car means that you are driving for fewer miles, meaning that there is less ‘risky driving’ happening in the eyes of your insurance provider.\n- Taking the Pass Plus or RoSPA Advanced Drivers and Riders Test: Successful advanced driving tests can lower your premiums as they prove that you are a well-informed driver.\nWhich Car Should I Get After A Driving Conviction?\nAs I’ve already talked about, downgrading your car is a drastic but effective way to get cheaper insurance. But which ones are the cheapest? If you’re going to commit to giving up your car, the savings had better be brilliant!\nHere are a few cars that are some of the cheapest to insure:\n- Citroen C1\n- Ford Fiesta\n- Ford KA+\n- Renault Clio\n- Skoda Yeti.\nWhich Driving Convictions Have the Biggest Impact On My Insurance?\nDriving convictions are not all equal, and some will show you as a more dangerous driver than others. This can mean that some conviction codes have a bigger impact on your insurance than others.\nHere is my quick breakdown of conviction codes and how they are likely to impact your insurance.\nMost Significant Impact\nYour insurance is going to be most affected by careless driving offences. Drink and drug-related offences are also very serious and will have a similar impact.\nPeople have the most issues finding insurance if they have these conviction codes. If you do find insurance, be prepared to pay high premiums with a high excess.\nThe following offences are visible on your driving record for 11 years and will impact your insurance during this time.\n|CD40||Careless Driving||Causing death through careless driving when unfit through drink||3 to 11|\n|CD50||Careless Driving||Causing death by careless driving when unfit through drugs||3 to 11|\n|CD60||Careless Driving||Causing death by careless driving with alcohol level above the limit||3 to 11|\n|CD70||Careless Driving||Causing death by careless driving then failing to supply a specimen for alcohol analysis||3 to 11|\n|DR10||Drinking Offences||Driving or attempting to drive with alcohol level above limit||3 to 11|\n|DR20||Drinking Offences||Driving or attempting to drive while unfit through drink||3 to 11|\n|DR30||Drinking Offences||Driving or attempting to drive then failing to supply a specimen for analysis||3 to 11|\n|DR31||Drinking Offences||Driving or attempting to drive then refusing to give permission for analysis of a blood sample that was taken without consent due to incapacity||3 to 11|\n|DR61||Drinking Offences||Refusing to give permission for analysis of a blood sample that was taken without consent due to incapacity in circumstances other than driving or attempting to drive||10|\n|DG10||Drug Offences||Driving or attempting to drive with drug level above specified limit||3 to 11|\n|DG60||Drug Offences||Causing death by careless driving with drug level above the limit||3 to 11|\n|DR80||Drug Offences||Driving or attempting to drive when unfit through drugs||3 to 11|\nOther offences have a similar impact on your insurance as the above, but are visible for 4 years.\n|BA40||Disqualified Driver||Causing death by driving while disqualified||3 to 11|\n|BA60||Disqualified Driver||Causing serious injury by driving while disqualified||3 to 11|\n|CD10||Careless Driving||Driving without due care and attention||3 to 9|\n|CD20||Careless Driving||Driving without reasonable consideration for other road users||3 to 9|\n|CD30||Careless Driving||Driving without due care and attention or without reasonable consideration for other road users||3 to 9|\n|CD33||Careless Driving||Causing injury by careless or inconsiderate driving||3 to 9|\n|CD80||Careless Driving||Causing death by careless, or inconsiderate, driving||3 to 11|\n|CD90||Careless Driving||Causing death by driving: unlicensed, disqualified, or uninsured drivers||3 to 11|\n|DR50||Drinking Offences||In charge of a vehicle while unfit through drink||10|\n|DR60||Drinking Offences||Failure to provide a specimen for analysis in circumstances other than driving or attempting to drive||10|\n|DG40||Drug Offences||Incharge of a vehcile while drug level above specified limit||10|\n|DR90||Drug Offences||In charge of a vehicle when unfit through drugs||10|\n|DD10||Reckless/Dangerous Driving||Causing serious injury by dangerous driving||3 to 11|\n|DD40||Reckless/Dangerous Driving||Dangerous driving||3 to 11|\n|DD60||Reckless/Dangerous Driving||Manslaughter or culpable homicide while driving a vehicle||3 to 11|\n|DD80||Reckless/Dangerous Driving||Causing death by dangerous driving||3 to 11|\n|DD90||Reckless/Dangerous Driving||Furious driving||3 to 9|\n|AC10||Accident Offences||Failing to stop after an accident||5 to 10|\n|AC20||Accident Offences||Failing to give particulars or report an accident within 24 hours||5 to 10|\n|AC30||Accident Offences||Undefined accident offences||4 to 9|\n|IN10||Insurances Offences||Using a vehicle uninsured against third party risks||6 to 8|\nDoes Speeding Affect My Insurance?\nYes, getting caught speeding can affect your insurance.

Of course, adding any new facility also means adding in the procedures needed to keep it looking sharp and functioning properly, and this is doubly important when you are talking about an automated service like a car wash. When it comes time for car wash maintenance, building a relationship with a friendly professional contractor will mean you have someone who knows your facilities helping you to keep an eye on the wear and tear they experience over the years. This also leads to increased operational efficiency.\nAn Ounce of Prevention\nWhenever you’re maintaining machines that work most of the day, it’s better to replace wearing parts when they show signs of stress instead of waiting for them to break. If they break during operation, they can damage other system components. If they don’t, you are still stuck with an unexpectedly out of service car wash station. A regular check-up from a maintenance service can run through all the parts that show wear as they age while replacing the ones that are scheduled for change-out, and it can do so at a fraction of the cost of a fix to a fully broken set of machines. Save money and keep your downtime down.\nThere’s a reason why the gremlins come out of machines when the weather changes. It’s because as the air temperature goes up or down significantly and humidity levels shift to a new average, it causes slight changes to the way machine parts contact each other, changing the spots where they are likely to wear. This can activate an old material stress point that wasn’t being strained under the old seasonal average, leading to a breakdown. That’s why it’s a great idea to schedule your maintenance check-ups just before a seasonal change.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://drivingforceautomobiles.com/2023/05/car-and-driver-new-book-uncovers-how-car-dealers-shaped-los-angeles-and-the-auto-industry/", "date": "2023-10-01T08:25:13Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510810.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20231001073649-20231001103649-00866.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9758333563804626, "token_count": 773, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-40__0__323047674", "lang": "en", "text": "The nascent film industry was able to use automobiles to scout and shoot (and star) in the varied locales—urban, suburban, rural, mountainous, seaside, riverside, desert, ranch—within easy reach of the city. And the advent of the car meant that filmmakers and actors no longer needed to carry their equipment or wear their costumes on the train or streetcars, a liberating shift in production scale. “Hollywood made the car, and the car made Hollywood,” Holter says.\nThe Local Dealer Was Crucial\nBut the core focus of the book is on how L.A. became the epicenter of the automotive market. Holter attributes that to one core notion. “It was these really local entrepreneurs, bankers and car dealers, local risk takers, who provided the critical link between the carmakers and buyers,” he says. “It was the dealers who found ways, through trial and error, to put people behind the wheel, and eventually convinced them that the car was a necessity and not just a luxury.”\nThese innovations included many still in practice today. Primary among these were the independent car dealership franchise, the used-car market, and dealer-sponsored service centers. But perhaps the most profound was the idea of hard goods financing: making a large purchase like this on credit. Prior to the car, the notion of an accessible and increasingly necessary category of commercial good—one within reach of the common person, but which couldn’t readily be purchased outright—didn’t exist.\n“Neither the factories nor the banks or the finance companies offered retail credit in these early years. So the dealers, because they wanted to sell cars on their own, started to experiment with paying on running credit by accepting down payments and promissory notes,” Holter says.\nEven more intriguing is the confluence Holter uncovers between these retail establishments and the early broadcast industry. L.A. dealers were among the first owners of local radio stations such as KFI and KNX. “These stations were launched primarily as a way of selling cars,” Holter says. The motivation was financial, but also temperamental. “These dealers became wealthy so quickly that they were seeking the next groundbreaking technology, looking for the next investment,” Holter says. “That’s the type of entrepreneurs they were.”\nHolter believes that the book has profound contemporary relevance, as consumers and automakers debate the validity of the franchise dealer system. “I think that some of the same factors that caused direct sales approaches to fail more than a century ago may still prevent high volume manufacturers from really being able to go totally direct,” he says.\nAccording to Holter, these include human-to-human contact in sales and negotiations, as well as protocols for delivery and repairs. “Things like that,” he says, “I don’t think are handled well by the internet.” (We might add the unfairly privileged pricing and allocations, and other deceptive practices, that OEMs have granted to stores they own in the distant and recent past, one of the reasons for the establishment of the dealer system in the first place.)\nHolter also thinks the story of the car’s emergence, and subsequent global domination, speaks to our shifting contemporary environment, and the potential for unanticipated consequences of new inventions—like functional AI. “It’s a reminder of how we have changed society and how hard it would be for people to give up those changes,” Holter says. “But it’s also a reminder that if you create the right technology at the right price, the impact can be enormous.”", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.carsbycappon.com/welcome", "date": "2019-06-17T20:39:48Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998580.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20190617203228-20190617225228-00448.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9612158536911011, "token_count": 1297, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2019-26", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-26__0__329586", "lang": "en", "text": "The areas in which we can add value and help in your decision making:\nSelling & Auctioning\nDo you want to reach 50.000+ international potential buyers?

Don’t blame yourself if you can’t picture the second-gen Bronco; Ford only built it for two years, from 1978 to ’79. Like the Chevy Blazer, the Bronco simply became a bobtail version of the full-size pickup. The third gen debuted in 1980 with an eggcrate grille and inset headlights—the flush headlights didn’t appear until the fourth gen in 1987—and a range of engines that topped out in 1984 with a high-output (okay, 210 horsepower) 351 V-8. The third-gen was also notable for the adoption of an independent “twin traction beam” suspension, With a new small Bronco expected for the 2020 model year, Bronco interest is higher than ever.\nToyota MR2 values up +20%\nThese vehicles are ready to start climbing, or they have already started climbing and are now poised to launch Get in contact if you want to learn more aon market situations and value growth.\nClassic Car Cult\nThe Classic Car market is unique. Not only has it been a wise investment to buy a classic car in the last few decades, but owning, rallying and racing one has become quite fashionable. Some people might be tempted to get into the market for these reasons alone. However, we think there are many more reasons for buying a classic car. By buying a classic car we have the chance to obtain a part of history, and preserving it for generations to come. The opportunity to drive or race a car in which people like Stirling Moss, Juan-Manuel Fangio, John Surtees and many others have written history, is beyond all description. Allowing us to own and experience a car like this is one of the many reasons for our passion.\nWe build cars that come up for sale when finished, In this album you can follow our progress on the build of this super cute 1959 Austin Healey Sprite.\nLocated in Doorwerth, Cars By CAPPON is a purveyor of fine Legendary cars which are eager to share their story.\nThe market for Classic Cars has developed significantly in the past 35 years and we were very fortunate to collect a huge archive and database.

You can go anywhere, even places that you would not easily reach otherwise. You can take your groceries to your crib in one go and you can take all your things with you when you go for a walk or go to the beach for example. Not everyone can bring their car with them on vacation, of course. That is why you decide to rent a car when you go on vacation. And at EasyTerra, they make this very easy for you.\nCompare rental car providers\nEasyTerra is a comparison site for rental cars. Suppose you want to rent a car in Pisa, which translates to auto huren in Pisa in Dutch. You will then look at that location at EasyTerra. You select what you need from your car, such as how big it has to be and how many seats and doors you want. You can also specify the date of collection and return. EasyTerra shows all providers who have something available. Not only large parties such as Europcar and Hertz but also small and local car rental companies. This way you can see where the rental car is the cheapest\nRental car inside and outside Europe\nYou could rent a car in Florence too, which means auto huren in Florence in Dutch. This works exactly the same. However, you could also rent a car in different places in Europe. This can be useful if you are going on vacation to the Netherlands for example. You could even compare rental cars outside of Europe with the help of EasyTerra. You can book immediately as well. You then book the rental car of the provider via EasyTerra. You can pick up the car at the provider’s place and bring it back there too. This usually is the same location, although this is not a requirement.\nCollecting and returning at different places\nFor larger rental companies, the rental car can be returned at another location in the same country. This usually is not a problem, although it is advised to research this possibility before you actually book the rental car. It could also be possible that you are planning on driving through multiple countries in the rental car. In most cases, this will cost more money. It is not even always possible unfortunately. Many rental car providers do not allow you to cross the border with the car.\nDrive through several countries\nIf you are planning on taking the rental car through several countries during the vacation the shore can be useful. You could, for example, fly to a location, pick up the car there, and then return it in the Netherlands. You could also do it the other way around: depart from the Netherlands, return the rental car at the airport abroad, and fly back from there. The options are limited though, so you should certainly research this possibility.\nWorry-Free label for the best deal\nAre you going for a simple collection and return at the same place and you still find the range quite large? You could then select the EasyTerra Worry-Free label. By doing this you will see rental cars that meet a number of requirements that make the rental car a good deal. These cars for example have unlimited kilometers, good customer experiences, and a favorable fuel policy. A rental car with a Worry-Free label is thus a good deal without any doubt. You can find this all at EasyTerra.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.townpune.com/indias-first-self-service-fuel-pump-started-pune/", "date": "2021-04-23T07:23:08Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-17/segments/1618039568689.89/warc/CC-MAIN-20210423070953-20210423100953-00391.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.948316216468811, "token_count": 269, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2021-17", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2021-17__0__251698772", "lang": "en", "text": "Pune | 27th June 2020\nFor the first time in India, a self-service fuel pump has been introduced in Pune.

On the course you will build your own radio controlled model car from a kit of parts.\nWhy build from a kit rather than buy a ready-made model?\n- When a ready-made car breaks it often becomes useless, but when a kit car breaks you can replace parts, giving better long-term value for money.\n- You understand how the car works so you will know how to adjust it for better performance and maintain it in better condition.\n- You learn a lot of transferable skills from the building project.\n- You will have more pride in your car and attachment to it.\nIn this workshop, participants will:\n- Learn about different car parts including power source, transmission system, suspension system, steering system and radio control system\n- Develop basic making skills with hand tools\n- Work with others and build their own radio controlled cars\nRadio Controlled Car Kit includes:\n- Tamiya Neo Fighter or Racing Fighter buggy kit\n- NiMH battery for the car\n- Radio-control set\n- Steering servo\n- Set of Tamiya screwdrivers\n- Can of spray paint (limited choice of colours)\nAll other equipment required for construction will be provided during the course. The only additional things you will need to purchase to continue using your car after the workshop is a battery charger and any replacements for worn out parts.\nThe two cars selected for this project are the same except for the body styling. They are entry-level 1:10 scale high-performance racing cars. With 2-wheel drive and friction dampers rather than oil dampers, they are designed to be comparatively easy to build. Their large wheels, low centre-of-gravity and suspension makes them ideal for learning to drive in parks or on local patches of ground when a purpose-made racing circuit isn’t available.\nIf you become interested in competitive racing you may be interested to know there is a junior race category for this model of car at the Tamiya Asia Cup racing competition.

They transfer power from the drive shaft to the differential. The universal joint can transmit torque and rotational power, and at the same time make the gearbox and the rear axle the same height. The universal joints are generally arranged in pairs on the drive shaft, so that each end of the universal joint can be bent to better transmit the power to the wheels.\nIn the process of using the universal joint, many failures may be encountered, which may affect the service life of the vehicle in severe cases, and may also cause the loss of rotational power and torque transmitted from the engine to the wheels. When the following conditions occur during the driving of the vehicle, it means that the universal joint has failed.\n- The harsh noise\nThere are lubricated bearings in the universal joint, which can keep the universal joint running smoothly. When the grease moves during the rotation of the drive shaft, it may penetrate or evaporate, resulting in insufficient lubrication. Therefore, when the car is started, the friction between the metal parts will increase, resulting in harsh noise.\n- Vibration during the start of the car\nVibration during the movement of the car is another symptom of damage to the universal joint. This phenomenon indicates that the bearing has worn out, causing the drive shaft to shift from its rotating shaft, resulting in vibration. Compared with the universal wheel, the rotation speed of the universal joint is higher, and the frequency of its vibration is usually higher.\n- Transmission oil leakage\nThe wear of the tail shaft bushing will damage the output shaft seal of the gearbox, resulting in transmission oil leakage.\n- Noise appears during reverse gear\nWhen switched to reversing, the car will make a \"humming\" noise, which indicates that a large gap has formed between the universal joints, causing it to continue to rotate, and then suddenly stop when reversing. This may be caused by the lack of proper lubrication and lubrication of joint bearings.\n- The vehicle cannot move\nThe inability of the vehicle to drive means that the power is not transmitted to the wheels. This may be due to a permanent failure of the Maintenance-Free Universal Joint. It may stop the vehicle completely.

Assisting Canadian-based companies to upgrade their technical and engineering capacities and develop and produce new products can generate some clear economic benefits here at home.\n24 The Quebec test facility is operated by PMG Technologies for Transport Canada: http://www.pmgtest.com/about-us\n25 Canadian Vehicle and Manufacturers Association provides an overview of the various Detroit Three research and testing facilities here: https://www.cvma.ca/priorities/innovation/research-and-development/\n26 See information on GM’s CTC McLaughlin Advanced Technology Track here: https://www.gm.ca/en/home.detail.html/content/Pages/news/ca/en/2021/Feb/0217_canadian-engineers-can-now-test-vehicles.html\nGovernments in Canada offer a range of investment supports for sector-wide research and development, including through the Strategic Innovation Fund and the Scientific Research and Experimental Development Tax Incentive Program. Provincial government programs make sizeable contributions like Ontario’s Autonomous Vehicle Research and Development Partnership Fund and Quebec’s capital financing arm Investissement Québec.

It’s a nifty feature, no doubt, until everyone in the vehicle is using the same network and the speed and signal drops.\nWith 5G, seven people in an SUV can share the same network without the limitations of 4G. Everyone can stream HD videos while on the road with no problem at all.\n- Little to no delays\nThere’s a reason why it takes a few seconds for your car door to unlock after you trigger it remotely with your phone or smartwatch: 4G requires time to process the amount of information sent over the wireless network.\nBut due to 5G’s low latency technology, delays are minimized even with the same amount of information needing to be processed. It is also less complicated and more secure than NFC. 5G could also allow web-authenticated car locking and unlocking.\n- Better remote monitoring\nA 5G connection will give car manufacturers better and quicker access to vehicles so they can draw data for monitoring and future improvements. This is especially vital for electric cars where automakers need to monitor battery levels and other data.\n- Connected electric/hybrid cars\nWith your car, mobile device, and the web linked via 5G, you can remotely monitor battery levels, keep track of the charging status, plan a smart route, and search for charging stations. All these things can be done at a faster pace, too.\nAnd if you’ve ever experienced having your electric vehicle (EV) unplugged without your knowledge, you can put an end to this and catch the culprit in the act.\nWhat is even better is that you will know which charging station you can go to, and whether it is occupied, before you run out of battery.\n- Self-driving cars minus the safety driver\nUdelv, the creator of the first custom-made autonomous and electric delivery car that travels on public roads, is banking on 5G’s low latency to help remote safety drivers to handle the car from a central data center instead of riding in the vehicle as it makes deliveries.\nRight now, a human “safety driver” is required to go with the vehicle while it is still in the testing phase. But 5G’s capabilities can change all this and more.\nBut what makes this wireless network truly astounding when used with a fleet of autonomous trucks and vehicles is the numerous possibilities it brings. Self-driving vehicles will be able to communicate with one another and with other infrastructures seamlessly. This will eliminate input lag, and cars can move simultaneously and in formation.

Since then, Solberg has claimed 13 WRC rally victories, 30 WRC podium finishes and the 2003 FIA Drivers’ Championship title.\nSubaru World Rally Team managing director Richard Taylor said: “We’re delighted that Petter will remain at Subaru, it is great news for the team. Over the past six seasons we’ve developed a very strong relationship with Petter and he has become a great ambassador for Subaru and the sport in general.\n“We’ve had a difficult start to this WRC season and our recent performance has fallen below the standards we set ourselves, but Petter’s decision is the clearest endorsement of our ability to get things back on track. We are confident that we’ve got the right technical direction now. We have a good plan and are looking forward to making ourselves fully competitive again over the next few months and then developing a new car for the longer term. Petter believes, like we do, that we can give him the best opportunity of winning his second and hopefully his third World Championship titles in the near future.”\nSolberg said: “Well, first of all the aim is to win - that’s the main thing. That’s what I want and the team wants too. Okay, it’s been a difficult situation recently and we haven’t won as much as we want, but I’ve seen the plan and the strategy and how things are going to work out. That’s why I’m feeling very positive about signing for Subaru again - I know that they have always been in the top of this sport and they will be back at the top and start to win rallies again very soon. It is a difficult situation at the moment but that’s how it is sometimes, there are ups and downs and when things are going badly it’s very easy to run away, but that’s not me. I want to stay and get back to the top again with the people I was on top with before.”\nSubaru manufacturer principal Toshi Azuma said: “It is very important for Subaru to have another three seasons with Petter and we are very positive about our future prospects in the World Rally Championship. Petter developed his driving career with Subaru, in 2003 he became the WRC drivers’ champion with us and now we want to give him the opportunity to develop further. He has also been closely involved in Subaru’s road car development over the years. Because he understands what it takes to develop road cars, he performs his role perfectly. His enthusiasm and personality has a positive effect not only to the rally team but to Subaru supporters around the world.”\nNovosti na domačih in svetovnih tekmovanjih\n1 prispevek • Stran 1 od 1\nKdo je na strani\nPo forumu brska: 0 registriranih uporabnikov in 1 gost", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.croft-travel.co.uk/status-wedding-cars", "date": "2020-09-18T09:34:55Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400187390.18/warc/CC-MAIN-20200918092913-20200918122913-00262.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9375292658805847, "token_count": 458, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2020-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2020-40__0__188772913", "lang": "en", "text": "T: 0333 600 5555\nluxury wedding cars, modern day touch with traditional values of style and elegance.\nRange Rover Sport HSE Dynamic\nThe Newest addition to our wedding car options is our stunning Range Rover Sport which gives any Bride or Groom the choice of arriving at their wedding in total luxury and comfort whilst making them feel like royalty.\nIt has a spacious interior to cope with any dress and the inviting heated leather seats will make this a favourite for those Winter weddings.

You could sell the car to someone else with a good driving record who could then perhaps get a cheaper policy than you could. You would lose the car but at least you would get something back for it instead of watching it be crushed for scrap or sold at auction by the police. All these methods have both advantages and disadvantages.\nBuying a conventional policy\nMost people whose cars have been impounded, as a result of the driver being uninsured, didn't insure them because the premiums were simply more than they could afford. Most of these drivers will now have to pay even more for their policies because they will be facing a charge of driving without insurance, or they will already have accepted a penalty from the police, which is likely to be a £300 fine with six penalty points. Money will be even shorter than usual.\nYou could still use your favourite price comparison site to shop for the cheapest quotation. However you would have to tell the insurance company if you have been given a fixed penalty for driving without insurance, or are facing a court appearance to answer that charge. To fail to do so would constitute fraud which is a criminal matter. Furthermore it is highly likely that, if you present a conventional policy at the pound, the staff will check up with the insurance company to make sure that you have declared the situation accurately.\nUnfortunately once the insurer is made aware of the fact that the car has been impounded and you have had, or are likely to have, a conviction for DVLA Code IN10, using a vehicle whilst uninsured against third party risks, either the premium will increase substantially or cover will be refused completely.\nBuying short-term car insurance\n1-28 days car insurance policies almost inevitably exclude using them to get a car out of a police pound but it makes no difference; the police will not accept them for that purpose anyway. The absolute minimum they will accept are standard policies which run for a minimum of 30 days. Fortunately there are insurers who provide these policies, and who are prepared to accept applicants with convictions. For more information see our 30 days impounded car insurance page.\nSelling the car to someone else\nThis will only be accepted by the police if the sale is absolutely genuine so this should be viewed as your last option.

The NOAB reported that airport fire department employees were using the Airport’s corporate account number at NAPA auto parts stores to purchase auto parts for their personal use in order to take advantage of the discount offered by NAPA to the airport. Airport management became aware of the issue because a NAPA auto parts store employee had called former Airport Fire Chief Gary Simon Jr. about an auto part that an employee, Shalanda Augillard, had ordered from a NAPA store but forgot to pick it up. The NOAB also reported that the airport fire department chief mechanic, Ed Powell, had a side business repairing vehicles and used the discount often.

Those\nare called key codes. They tell those who know how exactly how to cut a key to fit the lock,\nwithout ever having to see the lock or an original key themselves.\nTypes of codes:\nDirect digit codes. Each digit corresponds to each cut on the key. The value of each digit tell\nhow deep to make the cut. Some old American and some foreign keys are direct digit. These\ncodes have the same number of digits as there are cuts in the blade of the key.\nInterpreted codes. For these mathematical tricks are used (for example you must subtract 124\nfrom the code), then you end up with the direct digit code above. On these you've got to know\nthe method of interpreting the code for that key. Mostly people just look it up in a reference\nCode Book. The code provided is just an index that points to an entry in the book. The entry\nlists the numbers for the cuts that need to be made, as in the direct digit code. There are\nhundreds of different key codes in use just for automobiles.\nInterpreting the code\nOnce you've interpreted the code, there's still the matter of how you use it. This requires a\nguide to the depth and spacing of the cuts to be made in the blade of the key. There are key\ncutters that you just set for your key type and cut to the numbers, but there are so many types\nof keys available, even for cars, that it's not practical (and may not be possible) to have a\nsetup for every key made. Then you need to use a depth and space guide. This gives the\ndepth of the cut to be made for each depth number, and the spacing between cuts. Each code\nhas a depth & space guide, although many codes share the same guide.\nFinding the code.\nFinding the code can be a chore. If you have original keys, sometimes it's printed on the keys. If you have aftermarket keys made by Ilco, Dominion, Taylor, Silca, or any other aftermarket manufacturer, the numbers on the key are the manufacturers part number for the blank and have nothing to do with the code. Sometimes the code is stamped on the lock, but most often these are part numbers for the lock itself.\nSometimes it's not on the vehicle at all. Sometimes it's in the owner's manual or on other\ndocuments that would have been provided to the original owner. Keep in mind that keys often\nhave other numbers besides codes on them, locks have part numbers on them that have\nnothing to do with the code, and just because someone wrote a number down in the manual\ndoesn't mean it's the key code. Check with us before ordering a key cut to a code!

Motorcycles appeal to the many, whether it is due to their grace, speed, or freedom that they offer. However, if you have your own motorcycle, you must make sure that you look after it properly and treat it with the respect it deserves.\nTable of Contents\n#1 Keep It Clean\nAlthough after a while it may seem like a bit of a bind, you must keep your motorcycle clean. Washing, polishing, and taking care of the chrome work, gives you time to check it over for any scratches, rust, or areas that you find need attention that you may have inadvertently missed from just having a glance now and then.\n#2 Carry Out Safety Checks\nWith this, it is a good idea to carry out safety checks, and you may even have to get yourself a willing helper, especially when it comes to checking brake lights and turn signal lights to make sure that they work. You should also carry out regular brake tests and make sure that all your instruments are working well.\nWith so many accidents on the roads that involve motorcycles worldwide, it is silly to put yourself at risk by not spending a few minutes of your time making sure that your motorcycle will not let you down and that other motorists will see you.\n#3 Preparing It for Garage Check-Ups\nYour motorcycle will inevitably have to visit your local mechanic from time to time, whether this is in regular check-ups for insurance and road tax purposes, or whether it is because it requires a bit of additional work to be carried out.\nWhere possible, you should ensure that your motorcycle has a good amount of fuel in the tank so that if the garage you need to take it has to have it running or take it elsewhere for additional checks, cleaning, or work that they can, and you will still have enough juice to get you back home or at least to the nearest gas station.\nOf course, there may be times when, unfortunately, your motorcycle will not run, and in these times, you could opt to have a mobile mechanic come to your location to suck at his teeth and shake his head a few times or you could opt for some reliable motorcycle transport to get your beloved motorcycle to the garage that you trust the most and already have a report with.\nTo Wrap It All Up\nIt is a good idea to take good care of your investment by keeping your motorcycle clean. This will help you take the best care possible of it and make it last that much longer. Carrying out regular safety checks will not only help other motorists see you and your intentions while you are on the road, but it could also save your life.\nWhen it comes to keeping your motorcycle on the road, using your own trusted mechanic, and keeping them happy to view and work on your machine is a must, even if it means hiring the services of a business that offers motorcycle transport to get your motorcycle to them.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.visitphoenix.com/events/event-results/event-details/index.aspx?eventSourceId=20721", "date": "2015-08-27T19:20:35Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-35/segments/1440644059455.0/warc/CC-MAIN-20150827025419-00331-ip-10-171-96-226.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.8139304518699646, "token_count": 138, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2015-35", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2015-35__0__6103248", "lang": "en", "text": "2013- Model Arizona International Auto Show\nHundreds of the latest vehicles will take over Downtown Phoenix for the 2013-Model Arizona International Auto Show on Thanksgiving weekend.

I also strongly believe that is pertinent that a trained car seat technician (yes -- a professional) checks your car seat(s) and/or booster seats(s) to make sure they are not only properly installed, but that you are using them correctly when your children are present. Thankfully, through the agency I work at, a friend/co-worker is a trained car seat technician and not only checked my car seat, but made sure I knew how to correctly restrain my infant son into it. It isn't as easy as it seems and I more often than not, see parents improperly restraining their children into their car seats.\nThat being said, here are some important guidelines about infant car seat safety:\n· For the best possible protection, keep your baby in a rear-facing child safety seat in a back seat for as long as possible - up to the height or weight limit of the particular seat. The \"12 months and 20 pounds\" rule that many parents cite when turning their child forward-facing in the car is actually the minimum size and age requirement for that change. New recommendations suggest that children remain rear-facing to age 2.\n· Keep a baby rear-facing in a convertible seat until he or she reaches the maximum height or weight allowed by the manufacturer. For many children that will be 30, 35 or even 40 pounds. Many kids will be over age 2 when they reach that weight. Rear-facing occupants are safest.\n· Use your baby’s car seat rear-facing and semi-reclined to no more than 45 degrees, so the baby’s head stays in contact with the seat and the baby’s airway stays open. Read the car seat instructions.\n· Make sure the buckled harness straps that keep your baby properly positioned and secured in the car seat fit snugly. Loose harness straps don’t provide maximum protection. Be sure the harness is tight enough that you cannot pinch webbing at the shoulder.\n· Position the shoulder straps through the slots at or below your baby’s shoulders.\n· Adjust the chest clip to armpit level.\n· Use either the car’s seat belt or LATCH system to lock the car seat into the car. Do not use both systems at the same time.\n· Your car seat should not move more than one inch side to side or front to back. Grab the car seat at the safety belt or LATCH path to test it.\n· Every car seat has an expiration date. Generally, it is six years from manufacture. Many have the expiration date stamped on the seat. Contact the manufacturer of your specific seat to find out what its expiration date is.\n· Never buy a used car seat if you do not know its full history. Never use a car seat that has been in a crash. Avoid seats sold at flea markets or yard sales or online.\n· Do not use any products that did not come from the manufacturer in or with the car seat. Car seat fabrics meet strict fire safety codes.\n· Add-on toys can injure your child in a crash.\n· Find the frontal airbags in your vehicle by checking the owner’s manual. Never put a rear-facing car seat in front of an active frontal airbag. Children are always safest in a back seat.\n· Have your car seat checked by a currently certified child passenger safety technician to make sure it is properly installed.\n· Never leave a child alone in a vehicle - not even for a minute.\nTo learn more helpful tips to keep your children safe, please visit:\nSafe Kids Greater Sacramento\nThe site has made it very simple to navigate through safety tips for children in various age categories and applicable to at home, at play or on the move.\nAlso, if your child is 8 years of age or younger, please read the important information below regarding the LAW in California around booster seats.\nIn passing the new booster seat law, which will extend the current law by requiring children to ride in booster seats in the back seat until their 8th birthday, California joins more than 37 other states with strong booster seat laws. The law, which was co-sponsored by the California Coalition for Children’s Safety and Health, Safe Kids California, and California State Alliance of YMCA’s, mirrors the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the National Transportation Safety Board, and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.\nSeat belts are designed for the average adult male, and do not properly fit a child who is not at least 4’9” tall. Children in the 6-7 year old age group are particularly at risk because they may be too big for many child safety seats and yet too small to fully benefit from seat belts. A booster seat raises the child to reposition the seat belt properly so that the lap belt lies snugly across the upper thighs rather than the stomach. The shoulder harness should lie snug across the shoulder and chest – the strongest part of the child’s body – and not cross the neck or face.\nAuto collisions are the leading cause of death for children ages 4-12 and one of the leading causes of injury and disability. Parents who want to keep their children safe will check the law to ensure they are doing what is required to help avoid injury in case of an accident. We have long felt that it is a dangerous disservice to California parents to lead them to believe that by following the current law – which requires children up to six years old or sixty pounds to ride in a child restraint device in the back seat – they are doing what’s best to safeguard their children, when the data shows us otherwise. The fact is that using a booster seat, instead of a seat belt, reduces a child’s risk of injury by 59%.\nThe new law, which will extend protection to 6 and 7-year-olds, goes into effect January 1, 2012. Acknowledging that seat belts fit a taller child appropriately, the new law includes a provision that a child under 8 years of age who is 4 feet 9 inches in height or taller may be properly restrained by a safety belt rather than a child safety seat or booster seat. To maximize safety, parents should select a car seat based on their child’s age and size, choose a car seat or booster that fits in their vehicle, and use it every time. Parents can check for car seat check-up events in their area to get help from trained safety technicians on proper installation and fit for their child.\nA Safe Kids Trauma Coordinator commented, the new law will “protect hundreds of children every year from intra-abdominal injury, lumbar chance fractures, or multi-system trauma from ejection due to inappropriate restraints.” We know the new law will save lives and we are elated!\nPlease share this information with your families and friends and help educate folks on car seat and booster seat safety!", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://marylandspeed.com/magnaflow-dual-side-exit-exhaust-system-2005-ford-f150-v8-extcrew-cab-mgf16616-p-1203.html", "date": "2017-03-29T18:59:05Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-13/segments/1490218191353.5/warc/CC-MAIN-20170322212951-00018-ip-10-233-31-227.ec2.internal.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.7978872656822205, "token_count": 136, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-13", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-13__0__150343058", "lang": "en", "text": "Dual Same Side Exit (in front of rear tire) Magnaflow exhaust fits 2005+ Ford F-150 V8 with the crew or extended cab and short bed.

The HVA road trip was both a celebration and important heritage fieldwork regarding the birth of a century of American road trips.\nIn the summer of 1915, 21-year-old Edsel Ford, the only son of Henry Ford and six boyhood friends were among the thousands of Americans that took to the road to visit the west and the world’s fair exposition in San Francisco. At the PPIE, the Ford Motor Company had one of the most popular exhibits at the fair – a working Model T assembly line that produced about 18 cars each afternoon and more than 4,000 Model Ts during the course of the World’s Fair. The whereabouts of the original Edsel Ford Model T is not known.\nThe Panama Pacific International Exposition was widely promoted and provided the impetus for many automobile owners to make adventurous cross country tours using early “national” highway systems from east to west.\nHVA’s “Road Trip Century Celebration” was launched on July 17th with a HVA driving team using a refurbished 1915 Ford Model T similar to the one Edsel Ford drove, following his epic 1915 journey from Detroit to San Francisco. HVA collaborated with the Antique Automobile Club of American Library, the California Historical Society and PPIE100, to plan and recapture this amazing historical journey.\n“The trip has provided the HVA team with a greater appreciation of the development of our national road system and those early pioneers who experienced cross-country travel by automobile,” said Mark Gessler, President of the Historic Vehicle Association. The excitement and enthusiasm of all the people we met as we traveled through small cities and towns was a wonderful experience. The smiles, the memories and the Model T stories we heard made this trip very special.”\nThroughout the journey the HVA met with historians, heritage specialists, preservationists and academic experts to help trace the origins of the American road trip.”\nEdsel Ford’s trip was extremely well documented with nearly 200 photographs and daily journal entries. The HVA considers it one of the most well documented early American road trips done purely for pleasure.\nHe traveled through developing roads that were deemed “drivable” at the time. And, for the first time, one could consider a cross-country trip via the automobile.\n“Edsel Ford’s cross-country journey is symbolic of how the PPIE brought out the amazing spirit, enthusiasm and innovation of so many people,” said Phil Ginsburg, General Manager of the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department, which is overseeing the City’s PPIE100 celebration. “We are so proud to welcome the HVA to San Francisco as it concludes this epic journey to recreate what was an important milestone with historical significance from 1915.”\nIn recreating Edsel Ford’s journey, the HVA’s Road Trip Century Celebration traveled in the Model T to many historic sites on its way to San Francisco, including the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum, the El Vaquero Harvey House (Dodge City, Kan.), the Summit House at Pikes Peak, the Petrified Forest National Park and the Grand Canyon National Park. The HVA followed the National Old Trails Highway route from Detroit to Los Angeles. Portions of the National Old Trails Road later became Route 66.\n“Edsel Ford’s road trip is one example of the lure of the PPIE that was seen and felt across the country and around the world,” said Dr. Anthea Hartig, Executive Director, California Historical Society. “In 1915, America was at the dawn of a new age of connectivity and the automobile was at the forefront of this shift in society. We are thrilled to participate in the conclusion of the Centennial Road Trip and to honor the enduring legacy of the PPIE.”\nAbout the Historic Vehicle Association (HVA): The HVA is dedicated to preserving and sharing America’s automotive heritage. In 2014 the HVA established the National Historic Vehicle Register program working with the U.S. Dept. of the Interior and Library of Congress to document historically significant automobiles in America’s past. The HVA supported by nearly 400,000 individual historic vehicle owners and corporations such as Shell Oil Products U.S., Quaker State, Hagerty, Ford Motor Company as well as individual benefactors. The HVA is grateful to all those that have donated their time and resources to make the 2015 Road Trip Century program possible.\nAbout PPIE100: February 20, 2015 marked the 100th anniversary of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition (PPIE), the World’s Fair celebrating the completion of the Panama Canal and showcasing San Francisco—its recovery from the ashes of the 1906 earthquake and fire and its world trade potential. Throughout 2015, the PPIE100, a citywide consortium of cultural, civic, and historical organizations, will conduct centennial programs, events and exhibitions to commemorate the PPIE’s historical significance and to reflect on its legacy, all collaborating on what San Francisco Mayor Edwin M. Lee described as “a uniquely San Francisco way to celebrate a centennial—to focus on then, now and the future.” PPIE100 organizing partners include the California Historical Society, Innovation Hangar, Maybeck Foundation and San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department. AT&T is the presenting sponsor with other major support provided by Hearst Corporation, Wells Fargo, Ford, Henry Mayo Newhall Foundation and Sterling Bank/Seligman Family Foundation.

Whether you’ve recently arrived or are planning your move, this comprehensive guide will equip you with all the information and tools you need to obtain a Canadian driver’s license. So, buckle up, and let’s get started on your journey to driving freedom.\nUnderstanding the Canadian Licensing System\nProvincial and Territorial Variations\nOne important aspect to be aware of is that driver’s licenses in Canada are regulated by provincial and territorial governments. This means that the process for obtaining a license may differ slightly depending on where you reside. Nevertheless, the general principles remain the same, and our guide will provide you with the essential information for each jurisdiction.\nGraduated Licensing Programs\nCanada employs a Graduated Licensing Program (GLP) in most provinces and territories. The GLP is designed to ensure that new drivers gain experience and skills gradually, reducing the risk of accidents. The process typically involves a series of tests, including written and road exams, over the course of two stages: the learner’s permit and the probationary license.\nHow to Obtain a Canadian Driver’s License\nStep 1 – Determine License Equivalency\nFor many immigrants, the first step is to determine whether their existing driver’s license can be exchanged for a Canadian license without additional testing. This is possible if you hold a valid license from a country with a reciprocal agreement with the Canadian province or territory in which you reside.\nTo find out if your country has a reciprocal agreement, contact the local driver’s licensing authority in your province or territory. If your license can be exchanged, follow their specific guidelines for submitting the necessary documents.\nIf your country does not have a reciprocal agreement or you do not possess a driver’s license, you will need to go through the full licensing process.\nStep 2 – Obtain a Learner’s Permit\nThe first stage in the GLP is obtaining a learner’s permit. This involves passing a written knowledge test, which covers road signs, traffic rules, and safe driving practices. To prepare for the test, study the official driver’s handbook for your province or territory, available online or in print.\nOnce you’re ready, visit your local licensing center to take the written test. Some provinces and territories require an appointment, while others allow walk-ins. Bring your identification and any relevant immigration documents, such as your Permanent Resident Card or work permit. There may be a fee associated with the test, so be prepared to pay it at the time of your appointment.\nUpon passing the knowledge test, you will be issued a learner’s permit. This permit allows you to practice driving under certain conditions, such as being accompanied by a fully licensed driver. Each province and territory has specific restrictions, so ensure you’re familiar with the rules in your jurisdiction.\nStep 3 – Complete a Driver’s Education Course (Optional)\nWhile not mandatory in all provinces and territories, completing a driver’s education course can be highly beneficial. These courses provide valuable instruction on safe driving techniques, Canadian traffic laws, and practical skills. Additionally, taking a certified course may qualify you for discounts on auto insurance and potentially shorten the waiting period before you can take your road test.\nStep 4 – Pass the Road Test\nOnce you have gained sufficient driving experience, you can apply for the road test, which assesses your ability to safely operate a vehicle. You will be tested on various skills,\nincluding parallel parking, three-point turns, and lane changes, among others. It’s essential to practice these maneuvers and become familiar with the specific requirements in your province or territory.\nTo schedule your road test, visit the local licensing center or book an appointment online. Be prepared to pay the associated fees and bring your learner’s permit and any required documentation. On the day of the test, arrive with a suitable vehicle that meets the safety requirements outlined by your jurisdiction.\nDuring the road test, an examiner will accompany you and provide instructions while assessing your driving skills. It’s crucial to remain calm, follow the rules of the road, and demonstrate safe driving practices. If you pass the road test, you will receive a probationary license, granting you additional privileges and responsibilities as a driver.\nStep 5 – Advance to a Full License\nAfter completing the probationary period, which varies in length across provinces and territories, you can apply for a full driver’s license. This may involve paying a fee and, in some jurisdictions, taking a final road test. Upon obtaining a full license, you will enjoy unrestricted driving privileges in Canada.\nTips for Success\nResearch Your Local Requirements\nAs mentioned earlier, the process for obtaining a Canadian driver’s license can vary depending on your province or territory. Make sure to research the specific requirements for your location, including the fees, waiting periods, and testing procedures.\nTo increase your chances of success, take the time to study the official driver’s handbook for your province or territory, practice your driving skills, and consider enrolling in a driver’s education course. Being well-prepared will not only make the process smoother but also help you become a safer and more confident driver.\nObtaining a Canadian driver’s license can be challenging, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the roads and driving culture. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t pass the tests on your first attempt. Learn from your mistakes, continue practicing, and stay committed to your goal.\nAcquiring a Canadian driver’s license is an essential milestone for many immigrants, providing increased freedom, mobility, and opportunities. By following the steps outlined in this guide, researching your local requirements, and dedicating yourself to thorough preparation, you can navigate the process with confidence and achieve success on the road.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "http://www.byeyourside.com/coverage/auto-repair-shops/", "date": "2017-08-20T19:09:15Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-34/segments/1502886106984.52/warc/CC-MAIN-20170820185216-20170820205216-00463.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9396371245384216, "token_count": 255, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2017-34", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2017-34__0__92393761", "lang": "en", "text": "Auto Repair Shop Insurance\nAt THE Bye Insurance Agency, we offer business owner’s insurance that is perfect for your auto repair business.\nIf you own an auto repair business, you know that your insurance needs are unique.

Over the years Purolator developed other kinds of filtration systems designing them to suit the requests of every industry.\nIndeed, the filters offered by Purolator can be used to protect engines, but they can also be used for transmission of fluids, hydraulics and coolants.\nNowadays Purolator is part of the MANN HUMMEL group, and for this reason it promotes responsibility and sustainability. The use of oils has led Purolator to consider innovative technologies in order to reduce the pollution caused by these types of products. This is the reason why the company is continuously doing research to reduce the impact of oils on the environment.\nThe keywords of their code of ethics are protection, craftsmanship and experience. Therefore, Purolator can represent a model of innovative technologies and quality control processes.\nThe main products supplied by the company are oil filters, designed for daily driving and to protect the engine.

Acknowledging that the\ncompetition law regime in India and the automotive industry are going through a\ntransitionary process, the Compat reduced the penalty imposed on the appellants,\nwho are car manufacturers.\nCCI had penalised a total of 14 car manufacturers with presence in India, with\na blanket 2% penalty on total turnover of their business. This 2% penalty would\ninclude their individual turnover from their car sales as well as their spare\nparts and after-market sales. This was so because the car manufacturers or the original\nequipment manufacturers (“OEMs”)\nwere considered to be causing anti-competitive effects in the spare parts and\nafter sales and service markets through restrictive agreements. The Informant\nhad filled the information against Honda Siel Cars Ltd., Volkswagen India Pvt.\nLtd. and Fiat India Automobiles Pvt. Ltd, none of which were party to this\nappeal. The Commission, in order to expand its investigation, conducted an\ninquiry on other OEMs in India and included them in the final order by the Commission.\nThree aggrieved OEMs, namely Toyota Kirloskar Motor Pvt. Ltd., Ford India Pvt.\nLtd. and Nissan Motor India Pvt. Ltd. (“Appellants”),\nhad availed an appeal through statutory appellate process provided in the\nCompetition Act, 2002 (“Act”), while other OEMs had approached various high\ncourts under writ jurisdiction.\nAppellants had preferred the appeal on all findings of the Commission, including\nin relation to the incorrect expansion of scope of investigation, incorrect\ndetermination of abuse of dominance through vertical agreements by and between\nthe individual OEMs and their respective overseas supplier, OEMs and Authorized\ndealers. The Compat in its order agreed with the Commission and held that the Commission\ndid not exceed its authority in expanding the scope of investigation. The\nCompat, after a lengthy analysis of the contentions of each side, went on to\nagree with all the findings of the Commission. In its order, the Compat\nreflected on the jurisprudence of intellectual property rights (IPR) vis-à-vis competition\nlaw and focused on two aspects of the Director General’s investigation on the\ntreatment of agreements under the guise of protecting IPR. The Compat sought to\nexamine if the agreements were in fact protecting company IPR and if these\nrights as they stood were in fact protected by Indian law.\nassessing the impugned penalty imposed, the Compat decided to adopt a lenient\nview. The definition of ‘turnover’ was discussed and through references to case\nlaw was found to be the turnover of the products subject to inquiry, and not\nthe turnover of the entire multi-product enterprise. And following the yardstick of relevant\nturnover, the Compat ordered a revised 2% of average annual turnover for the 3\nyears immediately preceding the inquiry penalty on the spare parts markets of\nthe OEMs. The Compat directed the Commission to obtain relevant statistics and\nverify the amount of penalty. This case would therefore provide clarity on\nmatter where the CCI has over-extended its reach while ordering penalty.\njurisprudence and practice from mature regulatory jurisdictions, and setting\nprecedent on the scrutiny of vertical agreements/arrangements, this order by\nthe Compat has cleared much of the uncertainty in dealing with vertical arrangements.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.mbwaverley.com.au/en/desktop/passenger-cars/actions/current-offers/cps-mbw.html", "date": "2018-12-14T12:58:20Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-51/segments/1544376825728.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20181214114739-20181214140239-00521.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9104853868484497, "token_count": 167, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2018-51", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2018-51__0__262431556", "lang": "en", "text": "Capped Price Servicing.\nService with certainty.\nNow available at Mercedes-Benz Waverley.\nCapped price servicing is now available from Mercedes-Benz Waverley across the entire Mercedes-Benz range.\nPut simply this means that your scheduled service costs are completely transparent and guarantees you peace of mind for the first three scheduled services of your vehicle from only $396.\nAs a customer you will benefit from:\n• Scheduled Servicing conducted as per the Digital Service Booklet (DSB)\n• Includes items such as replacement of brake fluid, air filter and cabin filter at DSB predetermined intervals\n• Transparent scheduled service costs\nSo book your next service at Mercedes-Benz Waverley today and experience the star treatment for yourself.

Whether you need it for work or for personal use, you should pay attention on many things. For this reason, I decided to do a little reminder to help all those friends who read this.\nSTEP 1 – MONEY\nSit down and decide exactly how much you can afford, taking into consideration the cost of the whole package. Allow for insurance premiums, road tax, MOT, petrol, repairs and servicing. And while you may be able to snap up a classic, prestige or sports car at a great price, in the long run you’ll probably end up paying out more on insurance, fuel, maintenance and repairs.\nInvestigate your options thoroughly, look at the different grouping bands so that you keep your insurance premium low, check out the cost of a typical repair and compare prices from different organisations.\nSTEP 2 – YOU GET WHAT YOU SEE\nUnfortunately, there are unscrupulous people out there, so when going to view a car, ensure:\n- You have someone with you to give a second opinion – two pairs of eyes are better than one\n- Go during broad daylight – darkness and wetness and can hide a mutilude of sins\n- Always meet the seller at their house so you can check they are genuine\n- That all documentation tallies up:\n- That a private seller’s name and address match those in a Registration Document or log book.\n- All the documentation you would expect to find is available such as the Registration Document or log book (V5)\n- Receipts for repairs, servicing and insurance records are available\n- The vehicle has an MoT certificate (on vehicles over 3 years old)\n- Check VIN numbers, registrations, dates, names and addresses and any other details you can cross check\n- That the vehicle has a valid tax disk\n- There is no outstanding loan on the car, which would make you liable for loan repayments\nSTEP 3 – TAKE IT FOR A SPIN\nAlways test drive a car – not just to listen out for strange noises, but to make sure they are no ‘blind spots’ and that the car feel comfortable.\nCheck the steering, the braking and whether the car ‘pulls’ to one side. How does the engine sound?\nTOP TIP: Make sure you are insured to drive the car, either under your own, or the seller’s, policy.\nSTEP 4 – AN INDEPENDENT VIEWPOINT\nIf you are confident that the vehicle is in order, it is always good practice to arrange an independent survey by one of the motoring organisations (click here to find out who offers what), and if the seller won’t agree to this, then you have to ask yourself why.\nThese independent surveys will help find any faults, plus will be able to pin point if the car has been involved in a major accident, then ‘patched up’.\nOnce the survey has been carried out, you can then decide whether the vehicle is a good buy; whether you need to renegotiate a price..or whether you simply don’t touch it with a barge pole!", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.hh-ri.com/2022/06/07/%E6%99%BA%E6%85%A7%E8%BB%8A%E8%81%AF%E7%B6%B2%E7%9A%84%E6%87%89%E7%94%A8%E8%88%87%E7%99%BC%E5%B1%95/", "date": "2023-10-03T03:39:13Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511053.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20231003024646-20231003054646-00499.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.754010021686554, "token_count": 381, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-40__0__19510147", "lang": "en", "text": "【講者】施吉昇 國立台灣大學資訊網路與多媒體研究所 教授兼所長\n【摘要】Vehicles are developed/controlled individually but strongly interact with other users on the road to drive safely and efficiently.

Aside from dealing with the potential of injury, victims are faced with other issues such as property damage, the loss of their vehicle, missed work, liability, and traffic violations. This highly stressful time can provide the perfect opportunity for unscrupulous tow truck operators and scam artists to take advantage of unwitting victims.\nHow tow truck operators scam unsuspecting victims\nWhat is predatory towing?\nPredatory towing can take many forms, but it’s defined by towing companies that tow a legally or illegally parked vehicle, either without a contract and/or against the law.\nWhat does a typical towing scam look like?\nTow truck operators use police scanners to track vehicle accidents and rush to the scene of a crash to pray on unsuspecting victims. As first responders clear the scene in a bid to get traffic moving again, tow truck operators sweep in, often using high-pressure tactics to encourage victims to sign forms citing terms and fees they have not agreed to nor understood. In some situations, tow truck operators require upfront payment and once they have the vehicle on the truck, they will hold the vehicle hostage until the victim or insurance company pays exorbitant towing and storage fees.\nThe bigger (organized crime) picture in vehicle crime\nWhen tow truck operators and body shops have negotiated arrangements for vehicles to be towed, stored, and repaired – before insurance adjusters can view and inspect the vehicle for damage – a larger organized crime picture suddenly comes into view. Competition for big insurance dollars has drawn organized criminals into towing operations, and in some cases have left victims and insurance companies looking for answers.\nTo combat organized criminal activity, insurers must be able to identify the individuals and businesses involved by connecting addresses and phone numbers to link the disparate data points and create a clear picture of relationships.\nHow insurers can identify and prevent fraudulent activity\nInsurance companies receive and process hundreds and thousands of automobile claims a year. They use data and the claim information they receive to evaluate and process claims as quickly and efficiently as possible, getting their insured’s vehicle repaired and back out on the road in a timely manner.\nWith proactive approaches and a process of detection, monitoring and investigation of insurance fraud insurance, companies can identify and prevent fraudulent activity and protect their insureds from rouge tow truck operators and organized criminal activity. By leveraging the power of advanced analytics to connect previously unknown relationship between tow truck operators and body shops, legal and litigation activity, and corporate ownership data, insurers can detect and prevent fraudulent payments before they go out the door.\nThe importance of a single customer view in insurance\nInsurance companies rely on the data they receive as well as the access they have to other data sources to process claims, identify fraudulent activities and make accurate decisions. However, with millions of data points spread across multiple systems, and trapped in silos across internal and external data sets, insurers need an innovative way to turn volumes of data into accurate, actionable insights. What they need is a single view of their customer, claimant, and third-party risk.\nThrough the process of Entity Resolution, insurers can gain a better understanding of who they are dealing with while the connections between people, organizations, addresses and phone numbers can be used to identify, prevent and protect against fraud-opportunistic organizations.\nThe future of detecting and preventing vehicle crime in the insurance industry\nWhy should insurance companies and the public care about a perceived victimless crime? Automobile accidents and the clean-up of the aftermath have a significant financial impact on the accident victim, costs on insurance rates, and time spent on recovery. Being victimized twice by a tow truck operator or automobile repair shop can be prevented.\nFraud detection solutions and investigation of insurance fraud and vehicle crime can prevent continued victimization and additional financial loss. The ability to connect organized criminal conspiracies to individuals and businesses can provide insurance companies with the intelligence and decision-making power to protect accident victims and prevent future towing scams and claim losses. Law Enforcement and first responders can be trained to spot bad actors and fraudulent activity, but most of all insurance companies can deploy the resources and technology to identify, investigate and prevent fraudulent activity before future towing scams can be successfully accomplished.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.autoexpo95.com/used-gmc-acadia-for-sale-cocoa-fl/", "date": "2023-09-29T19:18:48Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510528.86/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929190403-20230929220403-00899.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9258702993392944, "token_count": 330, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-40", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-40__0__144990779", "lang": "en", "text": "Used GMC Acadia\nUsed GMC Acadia for Sale in Cocoa, FL, Near Viera, Rockledge, & Merritt Island\nIf you’ve wondered, “Who has the best selection of used GMC Acadia SUVs for sale near me?” shop at Auto Expo 95 in Cocoa, FL – near Viera, Rockledge, Merritt Island, Melbourne, Palm Bay, and Titusville.\nEver since it first rolled off the assembly line for the 2007 model year, this midsize SUV has been a popular choice, thanks to its bold exterior profile, sophisticated details, and plenty of interior comforts.\nWith a used GMC Acadia SUV, you could find a V6, inline 4-cylinder, or turbocharged inline 4-cylinder, depending on the model year.

The belt is too loose, will cause skidding, can not transfer power well; belt too tight, will increase the engine power loss and make belt early wear and tear. To use the belt reasonably, there is a specifica requirement of belt tightness, that is, the belt central should be pressed with 4 fingers vertical about 20mm.\n3. Disassembly should be correct. When disassemble the belt, some people not only pry the belt inproperly, but also use inappropriate tools, such as tools with a blade or sharp edges, will scratch belt or pull out imprint, so when the belt is running in high speed, will cause cracks gradually expand and rupture.\n4.

Dash cams are helpful in reviewing an accident, as many will automatically save video record of the incident. Rand McNally’s dash cams include a “G” sensor, which detects significant or sudden movement—such as collision—and automatically saves the video file. Plus, depending upon the model, you can get HD video and extra-wide-angle lenses.\nStop the Worrying\nAre you the parent of a new driver? Having a dash cam in the car is a great way to help ensure that your teens are following driver safety laws. Some dash cam models allow concerned parents to track when their teens are out past curfew, thanks to the date and time stamp on recorded videos.\nDocument Road Trips\nTime-lapse photography and video features allow drivers to record their experiences on the road more succinctly. You’ll never be disappointed that you weren’t able to capture the dazzling sunset as you drive down back country roads at dusk. Dash cam footage, easily exported via SD card, or in some cases, wirelessly, makes a nice addition to road trip diaries and other vacation footage.\nCapture the Unexpected\nYou would be amazed at some of the things dash cams have caught on tape—from natural phenomenon to death-defying maneuvers on the road.

Hot on the heels of the innovative but divisive four-door Purosangue, the Maranello marque once again delved into its storied archive and romantic roots to create a convertible that instantly gained reputation as the brand’s most delicate and tasteful model to date.\nEvocative of the pleasure-seeking Italian lifestyle of the 1950s and 1960s, the Ferrari Roma Spider perpetuates the proportions, volumes and specifications of Roma’s hugely successful V8 2+ concept. But what makes it extra special is a soft-top design that deploys swiftly and silently in just 13.5 seconds. Fabric roofs have come a long way since they appeared on the true front-engined 365 GTS4 in 1969.\nTheir modern successor is more user-sensitive as a new, patented wind deflector has been integrated into the backrest of the rear bench, assuring exceptional in-car comfort.\nThe silhouette of the sparkling Spider turns heads and a seamless cockpit makes it rewardingly easy to manoeuvre. Boasting a best-in-class weight-to-power ratio thanks to its soft top, the speedster has an all-aluminium chassis with the iconic and exhilarating V8 engine playing in the background. The latter is coupled with Ferrari’s universally acclaimed 8-speed DCT known for its fast shift times as well as excellent standards of mechanical efficiency.\nTo add more versatility to an already nimble looker, the marque has included a category-topping boot size, which features a hatch via the rear seat backrests to allow larger items to be carried, and standard wireless connectivity by Android Auto and Apple CarPlay WiFi.\nAnd if you are cruising the countryside in the middle of a frosty winter, stay toasty with an 18-way-adjustable heated ergonomic seats and neck warmer.\nThis article first appeared on Mar 27, 2023 in The Edge Malaysia.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://birminghammommy.com/britax-frontier-seat/", "date": "2024-02-20T22:58:22Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947473347.0/warc/CC-MAIN-20240220211055-20240221001055-00736.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9596234560012817, "token_count": 323, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-10__0__162093092", "lang": "en", "text": "Car seats became a slight obsession for me at one point. For my first child I went with the Britax Decathlon, since it went up to 65 lbs. Then kid #2 came along, and I had a dilemma to figure out: how to get the car seats I needed without letting them grow out of them too soon.\nSo I found the Frontier. And it’s great. To me it seemed like the safest and longest lasting option available for several reasons:\nIt has the Highest Forward Facing Seat Capacity, which allows children to remain 5 point harnessed up to 80 pounds.\nIt breaks down to become a booster seat… so I don’t have to buy a booster seat.\nThis will literally be the LAST car seat I’ll have to buy.

The cupholders are all my kid needed to see, he was sold!\nFrom the Britax website:\nThe Frontier combination Harness-2-Booster seat can be used for children over 100 lbs. as long as the vehicle shoulder belt guide places the belt in the proper position for the child, and the top of the child’s ears are below the top of the head restraint, and the child physically fits in the seat, and is not being used beyond its expiration date (9 years from date of manufacture).", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.performancechipguide.com/superobd-performance-chip-review-teardown/", "date": "2023-12-05T12:12:21Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100551.17/warc/CC-MAIN-20231205105136-20231205135136-00172.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9042392373085022, "token_count": 1476, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2023-50", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2023-50__0__131436574", "lang": "en", "text": "To begin, if you have not already seen the tests by quarkslab on reverse engineering the Nitro OBD2 performance chip scam, check it out here: https://blog.quarkslab.com/reverse-engineering-of-the-nitro-obd2.html\nWe point you in this direction because this scam has been flooding the internet for a few years now, and has given birth to numerous other copies with varying colors and logos. We provide our analysis below of the SuperOBD performance chip and show what is inside. To accurately understand the big picture you should first read the above quarkslab article in its entirety. It is proven based on several different articles and tests that the Nitro OBD module is a verified joke.\nThere are also several youtube videos proving the details of the Nitro-OBD light flasher scam and some of it’s variants:\nReverse engineering the SuperOBD Performance Chip\nTags: CAN OBD Performance Chip Vehicle Tuning Scams Analysis Reverse Engineering SUPER OBD NITRO\nThis article involves reverse engineering and analyzing the OBD chip called the “SuperOBD2 Tuning Chip” in order to identify if it functions as advertised or not.\nIt is advertised like this on the Amazon product page: “Super OBD2 is a Plug & Drive Ready device to function the increasing the performance of engine. Super OBD2 is easy to install. Just plug it into the OBD2 connector of cars. Super OBD2 fits all car from the year of 1996. It works based OBD2 protocols as remaping the Car’s computer ECU. After driving 200 km road total, Super OBD2 adjusts itself to the car,according to the drivers’ habits and always keeps remaping the ECU to increase the performance of engine. What does Super OBD2 make? According to your driving habits, Super OBD2 makes new map in the car’s computer ECU to increase the performance of your car. As you driving much more KM/Mile, it renews the map.”\nThere are a lot of testimonials on the internet about this device being a fake, while other people say that it really works. We wanted to reverse engineer it to check for ourselves. One issue we already see with the product is the claim that it ‘fits all car from the year of 1996’. Most legitimate tuning devices must be custom made for one specific vehicle application.\nThe price for the SuperOBD2 Tuning Chip on Amazon above was $35.94. However, some digging on the overseas website aliexpress shows the price is much less when purchased directly from the manufacturer in CHINA, $1.97:\nArmed with the fact that the well-known Nitro OBD scam chips, like the majority of them, were also made in China, and the fact that the ad above shows “Nitro OBD” in the title, we know the Super OBD Box is related to the Nitro OBD scam chips, but how close are they in reality?\nCASE / PACKAGING\nSometimes the best clues are in plain sight. In the case of the SuperOBD chiptuning box, we have the following paper box with install steps on the reverse side:\nNotice the install steps. Now, compare these to the install steps on the original known scam NitroOBD tuning chip – notice anything familiar?\nThe steps are almost IDENTICAL. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck….\nWe obtained one of these Super OBD2 OBDII Chiptuning boxes and disassembled the outer plastic case. The inside was identical to the Nitro OBD verified chiptuning scam.\nVerified Nitro OBD scam chip circuit board, courtesy manocao https://mhhauto.com/Thread-EcoOBD2-and-nitroOBD2-Good-or-Bad?page=2 :\nSUPER OBD2 Tuning Box Circuit board we examined – they are identical:\nIn addition, the original Nitro OBD scam circuit board has three surface mount LEDs present. The Super OBD2 circuit board on the right also has three surface mount LEDs. They both have a diode supposedly for ‘circuit protection’, as well as a 5V surface mounted voltage regulator. Also disturbing is the presence of the PIC16F59 chip, mentioned in many videos proving the Nitro OBD tuning box scam. The PIC16F59 microprocessor is made by the US company Microchip, and has a memory size of only 3KB. This is way too small to contain a vehicle map table\nas claimed by the manufacturer:\nMost legitimate vehicle maps are 512KB or larger, depending on the vehicle model and configuration:\nWhile this small memory capacity could not hold vehicle map data, it would hold a simple light flashing routine, which is exactly what the NITRO OBD has been proven to contain. From these facts, we can clearly see that the SUPER OBD2 OBDII Chiptuning Box is nothing more than another NITRO OBD light flasher scam with a round reset button added (who couldn’t use another fancy flashing light right?)! The manufacturer even compares the product to it’s earlier cousin, the Nitro OBD Tuning box:\nTo confirm this, we connected the Super OBDII Box to a vehicle and drove for approximately three weeks, doing multiple gas fill-ups and noticed no difference in fuel economy, performance or any other vehicle behaviour.\nTo confirm further that the programming inside the microprocessor is indeed the same as the verified Nitro OBD scam, we connected both modules to a 12V power supply on the bench and noted the blink intervals of the led lights:\nBlink Test Video: https://youtu.be/NzdWdQw2UpQ\nBoth the Nitro OBD tuning scam (Left) and the SUPER OBD2 Tuning Box (Right) blinked at EXACTLY the same interval! Same board components, same blinking interval, same scam.\nFrom our research as well as testing we can safely conclude that the SUPER OBDII OBD2 Chiptuning Box is nothing more than another Nitro OBD scam.

If the bike’s capacity were more significant than 150 cc, the company would not be responsible for paying under the terms and conditions of the policy.\nHere are a few reasons why your vehicle insurer might reject your claim or only partially pay it.\n- Ignorance Of Policy And Add-On Covers: People frequently complain that their claims are denied because the policy does not cover certain specific damages and must be covered separately by add-on insurance. For instance, the basic policy does not cover engine damage or depreciation losses; you must purchase separate engine protectors and zero depreciation add-on covers for these. *\n- Car Sent For Repairs: It’s a common mistake to have the car fixed on your own and then notify the insurance company. It’s a mistake because the business finds tracking the incident and the repairs challenging, making it difficult to evaluate the damage and approve the claim. This is the reason you need to contact the insurer so that it can assess the damage, offer roadside assistance, and transport the vehicle to one of its partner garages.\n- Commercial Use Of Vehicle: In the event of an accident, your claim will be rejected if you purchased a car for personal use but began using it for business.\n- Concealment Or Wrong Information: Falsifying the no-claim bonus or failing to disclose material facts, such as pre-existing damages, when purchasing a policy are examples of concealment or incorrect information that will result in the claim being rejected. Similarly, a motor insurance claim form may only be accepted if correct information about the incident or the damage it caused is provided. *\n- Lack Of Insurable Interest: The owner must still transfer the registration and motor insurance in his name. The insurer will not accept the claim in this situation.\n- Vehicle Modifications: You must notify the insurer immediately if you install a CNG kit in your car, add accessories, or change the vehicle’s body. Otherwise, your claim in the event of an accident won’t be accepted.\n- Policy Guidelines: The claim will only be accepted if you follow the restrictions on use clauses in your policy. Therefore, the claim will likely be rejected if you are not driving within the designated geographic boundaries or if the vehicle does not meet the policy’s listed requirements, like having a specific engine capacity.\n- No Driving License: If the driver of the car did not have his license at the time of the collision, the claim will be rejected. A valid consent that has not expired and is for the type of vehicle it is designated for is also required. For instance, the claim will be rejected if he only has a two-wheeler license but is involved in an accident while operating a car.\nMake sure you carry out the process for vehicle insurance renewal on time.\n* Standard T&C Apply\nInsurance is the subject matter of solicitation.

P.S. Manufacturing offers a high-performance, soy-based oil that meets both vehicle needs and sustainability goals. The family-owned and -operated manufacturing and marketing company is proudly stocking Biosynthetic Technologies’ motor oil — made using high oleic oil from U.S.-grown soybeans.\nBetter for the engine and the environment, this motor oil keeps engines cleaner by reducing sludge and varnish and, according to the manufacturer, increases fuel economy by 3%. Purchasing Biosynthetic Technologies’ high oleic motor oil supports not only vehicle maintenance but also farmers across the country.\nTodd Hambleton, president and owner of P.S. Manufacturing, a distributor of U.S.-made products, said his interest in the soy-based motor oil was sparked by his own connection with U.S. agriculture.\n“I’m a farm kid from Iowa, and I like to see value-added products that come from the farm and do a good job for the producer and consumer,” Hambleton said.\nThis motor oil is available to farm, home, auto, convenience and hardware stores nationwide for purchase, and farmers can have a key role in widening the market. P.S. Manufacturing would love to have farmers’ help in raising demand for the oil at the local level. Hambleton encourages farmers to ask for the oil at their local stores, such as Ace Hardware, Blain’s Farm and Fleet, and Orscheln Farm and Home, and points interested buyers to www.psmfgco.com to purchase the oil for their shelves.\n“We’re asking customers to go into the store and ask for the oil,” he said. “This will give those stores an incentive to buy the motor oil.”\nAnd Hambleton confirmed this soy-based oil does not sacrifice performance — it does its job.\n“I have the engine oil in my truck now, and it works great,” Hambleton said.\nBiosynthetic Technologies’ motor oil supports both high oleic soybeans and the soybean market. Producing soy-based products gives U.S. soy new markets to explore and increases overall soybean demand.\nBelinda Burrier, USB director and Oil Target Area coordinator, said oil projects like this continue to show the impressive qualities U.S. soy brings to the table, and builds a stronger demand in the marketplace.\n“U.S. soybean farmers can now directly impact the soybean market by purchasing the motor oil they played a part in making,” Burrier said.\nLearn more by visiting P.S.

The Pinto was a subcompact car manufactured by the Ford Motor Company for the model years 1971–1980. During the 1970’s there were many documented cases of Ford Pintos bursting into flames as a result of rear-end collisions.\nThe Pinto case burst into the national consciousness after Mother Jones magazine published an investigatory piece by journalist Mark Dowie titled “Pinto Madness” in 1977. The article referred to the Pinto as a “firetrap” and “death trap” and castigated Ford for “placing a dollar on human life.”\nThe company took a beating when it was revealed in the media that Ford knew about deficiencies in the fuel tank system, but proceeded with the design anyway based on the results of a cost-benefit analysis included in what is now referred to as The Pinto Memo.\nThe conventional wisdom is that Ford showed callous disregard for safety and reduced human life to a dollar value in its prioritization of profits over consumer safety and ethics. However, the case against the Pinto was not so clear-cut:\n- The $200,000 life-valuation figure used by Ford in its cost-benefit analysis was actually provided to Ford and other automakers by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).\n- The Pinto Memo wasn't used or consulted internally by Ford, but rather was attached to a letter written to NHTSA about proposed regulation.\n- The Pinto's fuel tank location behind the axle, ostensibly its design defect, was commonplace at the time in American cars.\n- The precedent of the California Supreme Court at the time not only tolerated manufacturers trading off safety for cost, but apparently encouraged manufacturers to consider such trade-offs.\n- 27 deaths were attributed to Pinto fires (the same number of deaths attributed to a Pinto transmission problem) out of 3 million vehicles sold. The car was no more fire-prone than other cars of the time and its fatality rates were lower than comparably sized imported automobiles\nIn light of the above, do you think history should look more kindly on the Ford engineers that worked on the Pinto project?\nNot so fast… The fact remains that Ford’s engineers discovered in preproduction crash tests that rearend collisions would rupture the Pinto's fuel system extremely easily. Several inexpensive modifications were devised (some less than $10/vehicle) to make the Pinto less susceptible to fuel leakage and fire following a rear-end collision. Yet, none were implemented.\nThis course does not proffer any opinion on the ethics of Ford’s decisions regarding the Pinto. The objective of the course is to present the facts and debates so that the student can formulate his/her own opinions. The case encompasses multiple ethical dilemmas that are frequently encountered in the engineering profession and the student is encouraged to reflect on the manner in which those dilemmas apply personally.\nSpecific Knowledge or Skill Obtained\nThis course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:\n- How the Ford Pinto fit into the automobile market environment of the early 1970’s\n- Why it was alleged that the Pinto was rushed into production\n- Details of the Pinto’s fuel system design\n- The primary cause of the Pinto’s fuel tank rupture in rear-end collisions\n- Low-cost solutions found by Ford engineers (which were never implemented) to mitigate the risk of fire resulting from rear-end collisions\n- The results of Ford’s cost/benefit analysis of the Pinto problem\n- The factors surrounding Ford’s 1978 recall of the Pinto\n- Ethical considerations of Ford engineers working on the Pinto project\n- The extent to which cost and schedule pressures led to the decision not to fix the Pinto fuel system problem\n- How well the engineers in the Pinto case met their obligation to hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public\nCertificate of Completion\nYou will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 10 questions.

And it sure did have its moments. From team order controversy to virtual safety car and real safety car shake ups, which saw Lewis Hamilton take advantage of the madness by pitting under the VSC and taking the lead, it sure did have its talking points.\nAt the start, Sebastian Vettel immediately got into the slipstream of his team-mate Charles Leclerc and took the lead, whilst both McLarens got great starts and managed to get amongst the Mercedes. The race was interrupted after a collision between Antonio Giovinazzi, Daniel Ricciardo and Romain Grosjean, with the latter coming off worst and retiring from the race, brought out the safety car. It appeared Giovinazzi was pinched between the two cars, but he continued. Grosjean was harpooned into the barrier by the contact, whilst Ricciardo got a puncture, which would eventually see him retire.\nAt the restart, there was a lot of radio chatter between the Ferrari drivers as it appeared a pre-agreed plan had been agreed that Vettel would take the slipstream from Leclerc to prevent the Mercedes getting it, but Leclerc would retake the lead. However Vettel had a gap but did not oblige, leading to tension on the team radio. Eventually the swap was done as Leclerc got the undercut. However Vettel’s race would then end as an MGU-K issue forced him to park.\nThis cost Leclerc as the resulting Virtual Safety Car enabled both Mercedes to essentially get a free pitstop, where Hamilton got in front. Immediately after the VSC ended, George Russell appeared to have a brake failure which brought out the real safety car. Charles Leclerc took a gamble by pitting under the safety car for softs, but that lost him track position to Valtteri Bottas. On the restart he had many chances but couldn’t get close enough. Eventually Lewis Hamilton crossed the line to continue Mercedes’ 100% win record at Sochi, ahead of Bottas and Leclerc.\nMax Verstappen finished in fourth ahead of his team-mate Alexander Albon, both benefiting from the VSC, with the latter also benefiting from feisty driving, pulling off a handful of overtakes. Carlos Sainz dominated the midfield battle and finished in sixth ahead of Sergio Perez, who also benefited from the VSC to finish in seventh. Lando Norris struggled for pace at the end but still finished in eighth ahead of Kevin Magnussen, who originally finished in eighth but a 5 second time penalty for not adhering to the bollard at Turn 2 dropped him to ninth, with Nico Hulkenberg rounding out the top 10.\nLance Stroll raced well but could not get into the points. The two Toro Rossos fought hard throughout the race but finished outside the points in twelfth and fourteenth. They were sandwiched by Kimi Raikkonen, who’s race was ruined by a jump start and the subsequent drive through, whilst Antonio Giovinazzi rounded out the finishers.\nHere is the classification for the Russian Grand Prix.\n1. Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes)\n2. Valtteri Bottas (Mercedes)\n3. Charles Leclerc (Ferrari)\n4. Max Verstappen (Red Bull)\n5. Alexander Albon (Red Bull)\n6. Carlos Sainz (McLaren)\n7. Sergio Perez (Racing Point)\n8. Lando Norris (McLaren)\n9. Kevin Magnussen (Haas)\n10. Nico Hulkenberg (Renault)\n11. Lance Stroll (Racing Point)\n12. Daniil Kvyat (Toro Rosso)\n13. Kimi Raikkonen (Alfa Romeo)\n14. Pierre Gasly (Toro Rosso)\n15. Antonio Giovinazzi (Alfa Romeo)\nR. Robert Kubica (Williams)\nR. George Russell (Williams)\nR. Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari)\nR. Daniel Ricciardo (Renault)\nR. Romain Grosjean (Haas)\nLewis Hamilton now holds a 73 point lead over his team-mate Valtteri Bottas, which means he could put himself in a position to be able to clinch the drivers championship in Mexico if he further extends his lead in Suzuka. Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen remain closely matched in the battle for third, only 3 points separate them, whilst Sebastian Vettel has fallen further behind after his retirement today.\nMercedes have put themselves in a position to clinch the constructors in Suzuka, if they outscore Ferrari by 14 points. Whilst fourth placed McLaren have now cleared the 100 points marker for the first time since 2014.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.projectproglobal.com/safety-pro/transportation-safety-officer/", "date": "2024-03-01T18:52:31Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947475422.71/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301161412-20240301191412-00314.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9339858293533325, "token_count": 288, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-10", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-10__0__47402516", "lang": "en", "text": "By law, every business and factory with a certain number of vehicles belonging to the categories specified in the relevant legislation must employ a transportation safety officer (TSO).\nThe company’s TSO is responsible for the safety and proper functioning of its vehicles and for the training of its drivers.

If you “reaffirm” the debt, it generally puts you back in the same position you were in with the car creditor before the Bankruptcy was filed. In a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, you will be able to alter the rights of the car creditor, and if the car financing was more that 910 days [2.5 yrs] before the Bankruptcy was filed, you may be able to reduce what you pay for the car down to the value of the car. In addition, the debt on the car will be paid through your Chapter 13 Plan, so keeping the car may become much easier because you can reduce the interest rate and spread out the time frame for paying off the car debt.\nThere are several other complex issues surrounding cars with the the setting of a Bankruptcy.

These laws will enhance existing DWI laws by increasing penalties and requiring ignition interlock for most repeat offenders. Here are the areas of DWI law that will be affected:\nIncreased Driver’s License Revocation Periods\nUnder the old law, a person’s driver’s license would be revoked for a year if the person refused a DWI test. Now, driver’s licenses will be revoked for a period from 1-6 years based on the number of prior offenses the person has had. In addition, most revocation periods for failing a DWI test have been increased, with the maximum period being 6 years. So, DWI offenders will have to make do without a driver’s license for longer periods that substantially increase with each new offense.\nAggravated BAC lowered from 0.20 to 0.16\nUnder the old law, a DWI was aggravated if the person had a BAC over 0.20. The new laws have enhanced penalties if the person has twice the legal limit, or 0.16. This change will make a larger number of people subject to enhanced DWI penalties.\nElimination of Limited License for Repeat Offenders\nUnder the old laws, a person could get a limited license or work permit to allow limited driving before they could get a full license reinstated. Under the new laws, only a first-time offender is eligible for a limited license. Repeat offenders must use the ignition interlock program to receive driving privileges before the end of the revocation period.\nIgnition Interlock Program\nAn ignition interlock device won’t allow a car to start if it detects an alcohol concentration higher than 0.02. The new laws will allow a person to receive a restricted license during the revocation period. Under the restricted license, a person can only use a vehicle with an ignition interlock installed, except in very limited circumstances. Tampering with the ignition interlock will result in additional periods of revocation.\nWhat is the effect of the new laws?\nThese new laws will substantially punish repeat DWI offenders by lengthening driver’s license revocation periods. More people will use the ignition interlock system in order to be able to drive before the revocation period ends. However, ignition interlock systems carry a monthly expense and will add to the financial penalties a DWI causes. In addition, a person will be restricted from driving vehicles that are not equipped with an ignition interlock system.\nDWI penalties are continually increasing in Minnesota. It is more important than ever that a person faced with a DWI charge obtains a good DWI lawyer to ensure they receive a quality defense. If you are facing DWI charges, contact Eric Rice at (651) 998-9660 or email@example.com to set up a free consultation and learn about your options.", "domain": "automotive"} {"url": "https://www.imlaycity.org/government/fire-department/fire-department-fleet/", "date": "2024-04-18T08:13:00Z", "file_path": "s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00200.warc.gz", "language_score": 0.9334408044815063, "token_count": 311, "dump": "CC-MAIN-2024-18", "global_id": "webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2024-18__0__184849572", "lang": "en", "text": "Engine 321 is a 2000 Marion Custom Body with a Spartan Chassis.
