New Car Safety Features

                                           This is the time of the year when the April car buying guide of Consumer Report comes out. I highly advise reading this if you are going to buy a car, either new or used. It is the packed with valuable information. Newer vehicles are packed with great safety equipment.

Top 5 Gotta Haves

To be able to adjust your passenger outside mirror by yourself when sitting in the driver’s seat is just a must. 4. Good tunes. 70% of 2007 vehicles will have a MP3 connection, read as an ipod connection 5. Air conditioning.  Keeps you comfortable in warm weather, helps keep the windshield from fogging up when cold. At freeway speeds, it increases fuel mileage over having the windows open by reducing drag
