It Starts By Looking In The Mirror

They say people start to look like their pets over time with the same expressions, same quirks, maybe even the same hairstyle. But what about our cars? Just as our pets become reflections of our lives, our vehicles often mirror who we are, from our daily routines to our wildest adventures. Whether you’re a dog lover, a road-tripper, or a mix of both, finding a car that truly suits your lifestyle (and accommodates your furry friend) can make every drive more enjoyable.

So, if your dog could weigh in, what would they think of your ride? From safety features to comfort and space, some cars are simply better suited for pet-friendly lives. Let’s take a look at what makes a car feel like a true extension of home—something that both you and your dog might just fall in love with.

Safety First: For You and Your Furry Co-Pilot

For pet owners, safety isn’t just about you, it’s also about your dog’s well-being. Modern car features help keep everyone secure, giving you peace of mind no matter the destination.

• Pet-Friendly Seat Anchors and Harness Hooks: Built-in hooks in the back seat make it easier to secure pet harnesses, so your dog stays safe on every ride. Plus, they’re great for other gear like grocery bags or sports equipment.

• Back-Seat Alerts: These safety reminders ensure you always double-check the back seat, a helpful feature for pet owners and parents alike to prevent accidentally leaving anything (or anyone) behind.

• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS): Lane-keeping assistance and automatic braking provide extra safety for busy drivers, whether your attention is on the road or occasionally checking on your pet in the rearview.

Durable, Low-Maintenance Interiors for Active Pet Owners

Pets bring a lot of joy, but they can also bring mess! For the pet owner or outdoor adventurer, durable, easy-to-clean interiors are a lifesaver.

• Scratch-Resistant Upholstery: Leatherette or synthetic materials are resistant to scratches and hair, making them ideal for pets. They’re also a great choice for anyone who’s constantly loading in and out, whether it’s a dog or a kayak.

• All-Weather Mats and Cargo Liners: Mud, sand, and pet hair are no problem with these mats, which keep floors clean and make it easy to shake out any mess.

• Washable Seat Covers: Back-seat hammocks and removable covers protect seats from paw prints, spills, or gear scuffs, keeping things neat and easy to clean.

Spacious and Flexible for Every Adventure

Roomy, adaptable interiors aren’t just a perk—they’re a must for those who love to bring pets or gear along for the ride. Whether you’re loading up for a weekend hike, a trip to the beach, or just a drive to the dog park, having enough space makes all the difference.

• Flat-Folding Seats and Expansive Cargo Space: These create plenty of room for pets to spread out or for loading gear. A flat floor is especially nice for larger dogs, giving them a stable place to relax.

• Low Loading Height for Easy Access: Cars with lower cargo areas make it easier for pets to jump in and out, which is perfect for larger or older dogs.

• Hidden Storage for Essentials: Keep leashes, water bowls, and treats in hidden compartments for an organized space. This is also handy for anyone who wants to keep essentials neatly out of sight.

Comfort and Convenience for You and Your Pet

A comfortable car isn’t just for humans. With these features, you and your pet can both enjoy a pleasant ride, whether it’s a quick errand or a cross-country drive.

• Rear Air Vents for Temperature Control: Pets are sensitive to temperature changes, so rear AC vents are a great addition to keep your pet comfortable in all weather.

• Built-In Sunshades and UV-Protected Windows: Keep your car cool on sunny days, and prevent pets from overheating. UV-protected windows are also great for families and adventurers who want a cooler cabin on bright days.

• Pet Ramp Compatibility: For those with larger or older pets, a car that can accommodate a pet ramp is essential, making it easier for them to hop in and out without strain.

Pet-Friendly Technology for the Modern Owner

Today’s cars come with advanced technology that can make life easier and safer for pet owners. Here are a few tech upgrades that are ideal for pet owners and busy drivers alike.

• In-Cabin Cameras: Keep an eye on your pet while driving, without needing to turn around or distract yourself from the road.

• Remote Start with Climate Control: Start your car from a distance, letting it cool down or warm up before loading your pet. It’s a great feature for pet owners and anyone who wants a comfortable cabin from the get-go.

• GPS Trackers and Smart Apps: Some cars now offer apps that track location, handy if your car is also your adventure companion or if you’re frequently on the go with your pet.

Did You See The Look On Your Dog's Face?

When you catch that look in your dog’s eyes in the rearview mirror, the one that says, “Are we there yet?” it might be a sign your car isn’t as pet-friendly as it could be. Take a moment to consider: is your car really set up for park visits, road trips, and everyday errands with your furry co-pilot? Do you find yourself wishing for a cleaner, easier, and more organized ride that meets both your desires and expectations?

For pet lovers, these outings can quickly turn into a hassle if your car isn’t equipped to handle all the fur, paws, and gear that come with an active lifestyle. Imagine a car that’s made for both you and your dog—one that keeps them secure, gives you peace of mind, and makes every adventure a breeze.

Types like SUVs, crossovers, and hatchbacks often provide extra space, flexibility, and pet-friendly features to accommodate both your needs. These vehicles typically offer flat-folding seats, roomy cargo areas, and low loading heights that make it easy for pets to hop in, stretch out, and enjoy the ride. With the right setup, you might just catch that look in the mirror—the one that says, “Now this is the life!” as your pup happily rides along like the VIP they truly are. Because let’s face it, in their eyes, you’re already the chauffeur!

We believe a car should be more than just a way to get around—it should support your life, ready for pets, kids, outdoor gear, or all of the above. Explore our selection of used cars and find the perfect fit for you and your favorite co-pilot.

It's Aboat Time You Reel in the Best Truck for Towing!

So, you’ve finally caught the fishing bug, and now you’ve got your eyes on that sleek new boat. The thought of those early morning casts and the thrill of reeling in the big one has you itching to hit the water. But there’s just one thing standing between you and your dream fishing trips: finding the perfect truck to tow that boat.

Let’s dive into what you should be looking for when choosing the right truck for the job. Trust me, you don’t want to be that guy stuck at the boat ramp with an underpowered vehicle that can’t handle the load. Not only does it ruin your day, but it’s also a great way to become the unofficial laughingstock of the marina.

Towing Capacity: The Backbone of Your Rig

First things first, let’s talk about towing capacity. Think of it as the backbone of your rig, without the proper strength, you’re going nowhere fast. The key is to match your truck’s towing capacity with the weight of your boat, trailer, and all your gear. It’s a bit like making sure your fishing line is strong enough to handle that trophy catch if it’s too weak, you’re in for a big disappointment.

• Know Your Numbers: Before you even step foot in a dealership, make sure you know the exact weight of your boat and trailer. Boats aren’t light, and once you factor in the engine, fuel, gear, and a cooler full of cold ones, the weight adds up quickly. You need a truck that can handle all that without breaking a sweat.

• Leave Room for Extras: It’s not just about getting by. A little extra towing capacity gives you peace of mind and keeps you from overloading your truck. This is especially important if you’re planning to haul your boat over long distances or up steep inclines.

Engine Power and Torque: The Muscle You Need

When it comes to towing, not all engines are created equal. You wouldn’t bring a light rod to a deep-sea fishing trip, right? The same logic applies to your truck’s engine. A powerful engine, packed with plenty of torque, is what you need to confidently pull your boat out of the water and get it up those hills.

• Bigger is Often Better: When you’re towing a boat, size matters at least in the engine department. A V8 or a turbocharged V6 is usually the go-to for serious towing. These engines deliver the kind of grunt you need to get the job done without straining.

• Torque Talk: Torque is what gets your truck moving, especially when you’re pulling a heavy load from a dead stop. Think of it like setting the hook on a fish—you need that initial burst of power to get the fish on the line. The more torque, the easier it is to get your boat moving and keep it going.

Transmission and Suspension: The Unsung Heroes

You might not think much about your truck’s transmission or suspension, but these two elements are the unsung heroes when it comes to towing. Without them, even the most powerful engine can fall short.

• Strong Transmission: A robust transmission is crucial for towing. You want something that can handle the extra load without overheating or shifting awkwardly. Look for trucks with tow/haul modes that adjust shift points to maximize towing performance and protect your transmission from undue stress.

• Suspension That Holds Steady: Towing a boat isn’t just about moving forward; it’s about doing so safely and comfortably. A good suspension system will keep your truck stable, preventing that dreaded trailer sway that can turn a relaxing drive into a white-knuckle nightmare.

4WD/AWD: The Extra Traction You’ll Thank Yourself For

Ever tried pulling a boat out of the water on a wet, slimy ramp with just rear-wheel drive? It’s a recipe for spinning tires and frustration. This is where 4WD or AWD becomes your best friend.

• Ramp Ready: 4WD gives you the traction you need to get your boat up those slick ramps without a hitch. It’s like having the right lure for the right fish—perfectly matched to the task at hand.

• Off-Road Adventures: If your favorite fishing spot is off the beaten path, 4WD/AWD is a must. It provides the extra grip you need to navigate uneven terrain, whether you’re launching from a gravel ramp or taking a shortcut through the woods.

Size, Maneuverability, and Fuel Efficiency: Finding the Sweet Spot

While power and capacity are critical, size and maneuverability also play significant roles in your towing experience. Bigger trucks offer more towing power, but they can be cumbersome to maneuver, especially in tight spots like crowded boat ramps or narrow parking areas.

• Maneuvering Matters: A truck with a good turning radius and easy handling can make the difference between a smooth launch and a stressful one. If you’re not used to towing, a truck that’s easier to handle can make the whole process less daunting.

• Fuel Efficiency: Let’s face it, towing isn’t exactly fuel-efficient. However, some trucks strike a better balance than others. While it’s important not to compromise on power, finding a truck that doesn’t guzzle gas like it’s going out of style can save you money on those long hauls to the lake.

Safety Features: Peace of Mind on Every Trip

Safety should always be a top priority, especially when you’re towing something as valuable as your boat. Modern trucks come with a host of safety features designed to make towing easier and safer.

• Integrated Brake Controllers: These are a must for controlling the trailer brakes, especially when you need to make a quick stop. They ensure that your trailer brakes in sync with your truck, reducing the risk of skidding or jackknifing.

• Backup Cameras and Sensors: Let’s be honest, lining up your truck with your trailer’s hitch can be a pain. Backup cameras and sensors take the guesswork out of the process, making hitching up a breeze.

Wrapping It Up: Hook, Line, and Sinker

Choosing the right truck to tow your boat isn’t just about picking the biggest, baddest machine on the lot. It’s about finding the perfect balance of power, capability, and convenience. Whether you’re hauling a lightweight skiff or a fully loaded fishing rig, the right truck can make all the difference in getting you to the water and back home again, safely and efficiently.

So, as you get ready to reel in that new truck, remember that it’s not just about horsepower and towing specs. It’s about making sure your next fishing adventure starts and ends on the right foot. After all, it’s aboat time you got the best truck for the job!

Driving into the Future: The Rise of Autonomous Vehicles

Movies have the power to be insightful, aspirational, and provide an escape from the stresses of every day life. It's when technology bridges the gap between fiction and reality, that movie magic becomes innovation.

Who could forget the Audi RSQ from I Robot, the Lexus 2054 from Minority Report and the quirky automated Johnny Cab from Total Recall. But just how close are we to having autonomous cars as part of our daily lives.

The Current State Of Technology

In order for these cars to become mainstream, breakthroughs in the following areas are needed.

• Sensors: Self-driving cars rely on a suite of sensors like cameras, lidar (which uses lasers to create 3D maps), and radar to get a complete picture of the road.

• Software: This is the brain of the operation! It processes the sensor data to understand what's happening around the car and make decisions about speed, steering, and braking.

• Mapping: Self-driving cars also rely on detailed maps to understand road layouts, traffic signs, and possible obstacles.

It is true that well known pioneers of autonomous technology like Tesla and Waymo: a subsidiary of Alphabet (Google's Parent Company) have vehicles that are what is called Level 3 Automation. These cars can perform driving tasks but require driver interaction

However, it's also true that these companies will have to win over a skeptical and cautious consumer base. Part of that process is to roll out Level 4 testing which will use controlled environments, and favorable conditions found in the Sun Belt states.

Commercial Applications

Beyond personal transportation, autonomous vehicles are poised to disrupt entire industries. Long-haul trucking could be revolutionized by self-driving trucks that tirelessly navigate highways, delivering goods more efficiently and reducing reliance on a strained workforce.

Imagine a future where hailing a ride is as effortless as searching the web - "Robo-taxis" summoned by a tap on your phone, offering a safe and convenient alternative to traditional taxis or even owning a car altogether. The potential impact of autonomous vehicles extends far beyond the road, promising to reshape how we move goods and ourselves in the years to come.

Until The Future Arrives

While there's no autonomous cars that we can program to automatically visit our dealership (just yet!), our extensive inventory is sure to impress you. So, whether you're looking for a test drive in the traditional way or hoping to hail a robo-taxi in the future, we'll be here to meet your transportation needs.

It's That Time of Year

Schools are out, and that means families everywhere are gearing up for their next big adventure. With modern tools like GPS and travel apps, planning a road trip has never been easier. But not that long ago, just getting from one part of the country to another was not only dangerous, but almost unheard of for leisure traveling!.

You Thought Your Trip Was Tough

In 1903, H. Nelson Jackson and Sewall K. Crocker took on the challenge of driving across the United States in a car. They faced rough roads, breakdowns, and navigational hiccups. Their journey showed everyone that road trips were possible and sparked a love for the open road. It was many years later that road conditions and infrastructure developed to the point of making them practical. 

AAA To The Rescue

While AAA is synonymous with roadside assistance today, it was their TripTiks, introduced in 1937, that revolutionized road trips.  These custom-made maps charted detailed routes, pinpointed interesting attractions, and even offered safety advice. For families venturing out on vacation, TripTiks became an essential tool, ensuring they knew exactly where to go and what hidden gems awaited them along the way.

In addition to TripTiks, the AAA TourBook, was the go to guide for hotels, motels, restaurants, and gas stations across various regions. These books were invaluable, providing not only addresses and phone numbers but also reviews, price ranges, and amenities. However, the information could quickly become outdated, leading to occasional surprises.

Navigating to these locations was another challenge. Families had to plot their routes on paper maps, which required careful attention to detail and a good sense of direction. Map reading became a crucial skill, and having a designated navigator in the car was often essential.

Despite meticulous planning, it wasn't uncommon for families to face unexpected detours or arrive at their destinations only to find that a hotel was fully booked or a gas station was closed. These situations require flexibility and quick thinking. Sometimes, it meant driving further down the road to find the next available option or asking locals for recommendations.

Road Trip Evolution: From Maps to Magic

The lack of real-time information made these trips feel more adventurous but also more stressful. thankfully, the introduction of GPS ushered in a new era, replacing the days of bulky maps and dog-eared travel guides with the convenience of digital tools that could guide us to the nearest station, and beyond. GPS navigation replaced wrong turns with turn-by-turn guidance and real-time traffic updates, making getting lost a distant memory. Trips became efficient, stress-free, and even safer.

Smartphones took it a step further. Apps like Google Maps and TripAdvisor provide everything from gas stations to attractions at your fingertips. Families can now be spontaneous, with real-time reviews helping them find the best places to eat, sleep, and explore – making every adventure more enjoyable.

While it’s fun to look into the past to see how far we’ve come, choosing the right car for your family vacation is just as important today. The right vehicle can make all the difference in ensuring a comfortable, enjoyable, and stress-free journey for everyone. Here are some key considerations when selecting the perfect car for your next family adventure:

Space and Comfort

One of the most important factors is ensuring that there is enough space for both passengers and luggage. Long road trips require ample room to stretch out and relax. Look for vehicles with spacious interiors, adjustable seating, and plenty of cargo space. Features like captain's chairs, third-row seating, and foldable seats can provide added flexibility and comfort.

Advanced Safety Features

Safety is paramount, especially when traveling with family. Modern cars come equipped with advanced safety features that can significantly enhance your peace of mind. Look for vehicles with adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, and automatic emergency braking. These features can help prevent accidents and ensure a safer driving experience.

Entertainment Options

Keeping everyone entertained during long drives is essential. Modern vehicles offer a variety of entertainment options to keep passengers occupied. Look for cars with built-in entertainment systems, such as DVD or Blu-ray players, rear-seat screens, and connectivity options for streaming devices. Wi-Fi hotspots and multiple USB ports can also be a lifesaver for keeping devices charged and connected.

Fuel Efficiency and Reliability

Fuel-efficient vehicles, including hybrids and electric cars, are excellent choices for long road trips. They offer better mileage, which means fewer stops for gas and more savings. Additionally, environmentally friendly options help reduce your carbon footprint. Regular maintenance is also crucial to ensure your vehicle is in top condition and ready for any adventure. Make sure to check tire pressure, oil levels, and other essential fluids before hitting the road.

The Best Ways To Keep Your Car Smelling Like New Your Car

The smell of a new car is one of the best things in the world. It's like getting a fresh start, every time you get in. But what can you do to make sure your car smells like new for as long as possible? Here are four tips that will help keep your car smelling great.

1. Don't leave food in your car.

This one seems like a no-brainer, but it's worth repeating. Whenever you eat in your car, be sure to throw away any wrappers or leftover food. Otherwise, you're just inviting critters and bacteria to come in and make themselves at home.

2. Vacuum the seats and carpets often

Even if you don't eat in your car, dirt and dust can build up on the seats and carpets. Vacuuming regularly will help to remove these particles and keep your car smelling fresh.

3. Use a fabric freshener to keep the upholstery smelling good

There are a variety of fabric fresheners on the market, both in spray and gel form. These can help to keep the upholstery in your car smelling pleasant.

4. Spray a deodorizer in the car every week or so to keep it smelling fresh.

There are products that are designed to produce the new car smell. These can be found at most auto parts stores and can help keep your car smelling like new.

These are just the basics, but to really get rid of tough odors like smoke, it's going to take a bit more work. Deodorizers and fabric sprays may temporarily cover up smells, but they don’t actually remove them. If you’re looking for a more long-term solution, try an ozone generator.

An ozone generator can also be used to remove smoke odors from your car. They work by producing ozone molecules which attach to and break down the particles that cause odors. Ozone generators can be purchased online or at some home improvement stores.

Can You Avoid The Nightmare?

You've waited so long. You finally saved up enough money to buy your dream car. You do your research, take test drives, and find the perfect one. The day finally arrives when you drive off the lot in your new car. You're on top of the world. But then, one day, your car is gone. It's been stolen. Your dream has become a nightmare. No one ever thinks it will happen to them. But every year, thousands of people have their cars stolen. And for many, the loss is more than just material - it's a devastating blow to their sense of security and well-being.

For victims of car theft, the experience can be traumatizing. Not only are they left without a means of transportation, but they also have to deal with the fallout from the crime. This can include everything from filing a police report to dealing with insurance claims.If you've been the victim of car theft, it's important to know that you're not alone. There are resources available to help you through this difficult time. And with a little effort, you can make sure that your car is returned to you safely

Most Stolen Cars Of 2021

According to a recent article from autoblog.com the most stolen cars of 2021 were.

1. Chevrolet pickup (full-size): 48,206 total thefts

2. Ford pickup (full-size): 47,999 total thefts

3. Honda Civic: 31,673 total thefts

4. Honda Accord: 30,274 total thefts

5. Toyota Camry: 17,270 total thefts

6. GMC pickup (full-size): 15,599 total thefts

7. Nissan Altima: 14,108 total thefts

8. Honda CR-V: 13,308 total thefts

9. Jeep Cherokee / Grand Cherokee: 13,210 total thefts

10. Toyota Corolla: 12,927 total thefts

 As you can see from the list above the most stolen cars are full-size pickup trucks followed by Honda Civic and Accord. Although these represent the most stolen vehicles it doesn't mean that these are the only ones being targeted. In fact, any car can be stolen regardless of make or model.

Always Lock Your Doors

This seems like common sense but you'd be surprised how many people don't do it. Always make sure to lock your doors, even if you're just running into the store for a quick errand. And don't leave your keys in the ignition - no matter how tempting it may be on a hot day.

Don't Leave Spare Keys In The Car

Another common mistake is leaving a spare key hidden in the car. This may seem like a good idea at the time, but it's just asking for trouble. If a thief finds your spare key, they now have easy access to your vehicle.

Install A Tracking Device With A Remote Kill Switch

If you're really concerned about your car being stolen, you can install a tracking device with a remote kill switch. This will allow you to track the location of your car if it's stolen, and even disable it if necessary. Typically they come with an app that you can use to track the location of your vehicle. Then remotely disable the car and notify the authorities who will then be able to apprehend the thief and return your vehicle.

Consider A Wheel Lock

A wheel lock is another good idea if you're worried about your car being stolen. This is a device that attaches to your wheel and makes it very difficult for a thief to drive away with your car. They're not 100% effective, but they can be a good deterrent.

Park In Well Lit Areas

Whenever possible, try to park in well lit areas and never leave packages or valuables in plain sight. Thieves often seek out easy targets of opportunity, so the less tempting your car is, the better. Although not full proof, putting valuables in the trunk is also a good i

Will Electric Cars Will Become Yesterday's News

Technology never stands still for long and, as anyone who's been paying attention to the automotive industry over the past few years will know, electric cars are very much the future. But what's next?

One area that is currently being explored is the possibility of flying cars. That's right, flying cars! While it may sound like something straight out of The Jetsons, there are a number of companies working on this incredible technology and it may not be as far-fetched as you might think.

Here's a headline from a recently published article from Car and Driver

Hyundai Subsidiary Unveils Flying Car Concept That Could Fly U.S. Skies by 2028

"Hyundai is also investing heavily in the nascent industry, launching a U.S.-based subsidiary called Supernal last November to focus on the so-called "Advanced Air Mobility market.” Now, Supernal has unveiled its eVTOL Vehicle Cabin concept at the Farnborough International Airshow in England, showing what the passenger compartment inside its upcoming intra-city air shuttle could look like."

Don't Count On Getting Frequent Flier Miles Just Yet

In addition to the technical hurdles that need to be overcome, there are also a number of regulatory issues that need to be sorted out before flying cars become a reality. Just like most industries I'm sure that traditional airlines are not going to be too thrilled about the idea of having competition from flying cars.

And then there's the question of whether or not people are actually going to want to fly in a car. I have to admit that the idea of getting stuck in traffic on the freeway is not all that appealing, but then again neither is being crammed into a metal tube with a bunch of strangers for hours on end.

Flying cars would obviously have a lot of advantages over traditional ground-based vehicles. For one, they would be able to avoid traffic jams and get from A to B much quicker. They would also be able to park in a lot less space and, perhaps most importantly, they would be a lot of fun!

Your Brakes Are Telling You Something!

Brakes are an essential part of every car, helping you to slow down and stop when needed. Generally, if your brakes are making a high-pitched squealing noise when you first step on them, it's an indication that the brake pads need to be replaced.

What causes that noise when you brake?

This can be due to a number of different factors - worn or dirty brake pads, issues with the rotors or calipers, or even something as simple as dirt or debris caught in the brakes.

If you're noticing a strange noise coming from your brakes, it's always best to have them checked out by a professional mechanic to ensure there isn't a bigger issue at play.

What are the different types of brakes, and how do they work?

There are many different types of brakes, each designed to perform a specific function and work in a particular way. Some common brake types include disc brakes, drum brakes, and vacuum brakes.

Disc brakes use a system of pads that press against a spinning metal disc to slow or stop the vehicle. Drum brakes consist of two brake shoes that press against the inside of a stationary metal drum. Vacuum brakes use suction to slow or stop a vehicle, drawing air from the atmosphere into chambers

How can you tell if your brakes need to be serviced or replaced?

If your car is making a noise when you brake, there's a good chance that something is wrong with your brakes. There are several things you can do to check your brakes and see if they need to be serviced or replaced.

Another way to tell if your brakes are in need of service is to look at your brake fluid levels. If the fluid is low or dark, it could be a sign that your brakes need to be flushed and refilled.

What does turning the Rotors mean?

If you've ever had your car's brakes serviced, you may have heard the term "turning the rotors." But what does that actually mean?

Rotors are the metal discs that your brake pads press against to slow or stop your car. When they become worn or dirty, they can cause a number of problems with braking performance. Turning the rotors means machining them down so that they are smooth and clean again, allowing for better braking. If they get worn down below a certain point, they will need to be replaced entirely by a mechanic.

As a driver, it's important to be aware of any issues with your car's brakes, as this can have serious implications for your safety on the road. Some common symptoms of worn or faulty brakes include a high-pitched squealing noise when braking, low or dark brake fluid levels, vibrations or shuddering when applying the brakes, and poor response time. If you notice any of these issues, be sure to have your brakes checked by a professional mechanic as soon as possible.
