It's More Than Meets The Eye!

If you've ever owned a vehicle no doubt you been what's called upside down in your car. It's when you owe more that the vehicle is worth. Well Rick Sullivan, a mechanic from Clinton, Illinois, spent six months and $6,000 to bring this extraordinary concept to life. The inspiration struck him when he saw a Ford Ranger overturned in the snow. This sight sparked an idea: to create a vehicle that permanently looked like it was flipped over.

Building Process

• Base Vehicle: The drivetrain of a '91 Ford Ranger.

• Transformation: Stripping the Ranger's body and fitting an upside-down Ford F-150 body onto it.

This project required not just mechanical skills but also a creative vision, something that is often undervalued in the automotive world.

Community Reaction and Impact

The truck has become a local sensation, drawing attention and sparking conversations wherever it goes. Passersby are often initially confused, then delighted by the truck's design.

Need A New Car?

It may be fun to drive an truck that is literally upside down but not so much when you owe more on a vehicle than it's worth. Stop by today where you can find a car that not only meets your needs but also puts you on a more stable financial path. Remember, being "upside down" isn't a permanent state – with the right approach, you can turn it around and drive forward with confidence.

Can Going Viral Help Sell Your Car?

If you've been on the internet lately, you might have come across a hilariously over-the-top car commercial that's been making rounds.

Do we really need car touch screens?

Car touch screens are becoming increasingly common in new cars and offer a way to control various systems such as the radio, temperature controls and more with ease. However, the question remains: do we really need them?

The Pros

There are certainly benefits to having car touch screens. For one, they make it possible to control everything from music to air conditioning without ever taking your hands off the wheel. This can be incredibly convenient, especially on long drives.

The Cons

But there are also downsides to car touch screens. They can be dangerously distracting, particularly if you’re not familiar with all their features and where they’re located. Taking your eyes off the road for even a few seconds can be risky and potentially fatal.

Minimizing Distractions

Some car manufacturers are addressing these concerns by designing touch screens that can disappear into the dashboard when they’re not in use. Other features that minimize driver distraction include voice controls, heads-up displays that project images onto the windshield, and gesture controls.

Conclusion

In the end, it’s up to individual drivers to determine whether or not car touch screens are right for them. If you can use them without taking your eyes off the road, then they can be a valuable asset. But if you find them distracting, it might be best to stick with traditional buttons and knobs.

Why Should You Buy A Used Car From A Dealer?

The car market has been full of ups and downs in recent months not to mention the tough economic times we are all facing. But despite this, everyone at some point will need to buy a car to replace their current one.

Used Car Dealers Vs. Classifieds

Buying a used car from a classified site has some pros and cons. On the surface it meets your budget but there will be uncertainty about the quality of what’s under the hood. Even if you've had good experiences in the past, it's hard to know for sure what you're getting.When you buy from a used car dealer, they have to be licensed by their state and typically vehicles will have been through a mechanical inspection of some sort.

1.  Condition – It's in their best interest to purchase cars that are in good condition to sell to you.

2.  History Reports  – When you buy from a dealer, they can tell you about the car's history. If it was involved in an accident, or how many owners it's had. This will give you some idea of what to expect down the road.

3.  Financing – Coming up with hard cash can be a challenge for anyone these days, and paying someone you just met online gives you little recourse. Most states have lemon laws giving you options from a dealer you wouldn't otherwise have.

4.  Paperwork – Oftentimes, people don't realize that when they purchase a used car from classified ads, they still have to go with the seller to transfer the title. You will also have to arrange your own financing. Most people barely have the time to shop for a car much less deal with all the paperwork that's required.

What Is A Good Deal On A Car

Everyone wants to get the best deal on a car they can, It's human nature and makes financial sense. However, getting that deal isn't always up to the car dealership. Your budget, credit score and trade-in value all play significant factors in what you actually pay for your car.

Know Your Budget

Most people think a budget is what you can afford monthly, but it also determines what cars and the features will have. A car that you like may have several trim levels with different features, but they will come at a higher price. So know your budget and research cars and trim levels that fit in it.

Know Your Must Haves

If you've done your research then you probably have an idea of what you're looking for. But It's important to know your must-haves in a vehicle. For some people, it might be four-wheel drive or a sunroof, but for others, it might be heated seats and remote start.

Know Your Can Do With Outs

After you know your must haves, you can start looking at what you can do without. It all ties back into your budget and what you're willing to spend. If you're not worried about having the latest and greatest features, then you can probably get by with a base model vehicle.

With your budget, must have, and do with outs in mind, head to a dealership and have a conversation with the salesperson. They will be able to guide you to a vehicle that fits your needs best. You will then have a better understanding of what a good deal on a car looks like.
