So, there I was sitting at the light, and waiting for it to turn green, and all of a sudden, someone came up behind me and crashed right into the back of my car going about 50 miles an hour. Needless to say, I got pretty bad whip lash, as well as a long hospital stay for some internal injuries from slamming into the steering wheel.

09/26 The Most Fun I Have Ever Had Driving

My husband has always picked out my cars. I must admit that I am always satisfied with what he chooses, but I have never been as thrilled as I was when he brought home, in my opinion, one of the coolest European cars Sydney Australia has ever seen. I am now the proud owner of a Peugeot 407 Touring Car. It has a panoramic glass roof that is awesome for night driving. The kids love it! We can get all of our family and our gear into this car easily. It handles beautifully, and it is actually the most fun I have ever had driving.

09/20 Motor Bike to Car

Ever wished you could get the feeling you get when you ride a motor bike when you drive your car from home to work every day? Well I have and I wanted a car that would give me that feeling so I though a good place to start would be a Suzuki dealership, after all Suzuki truly understand motor bikes and motor bikers and they also make cars. I arrived at the Suzuki showroom and the staff were polite and courteous. They showed me around their stock and talked me through each different model. Eventually I took one for a test drive, the car drove very well but it was nothing like ridding a motor bike.

09/19 Looking for used trikes

I have been a bike rider for many years. My wife and I have retired and now want to own bikes that provide stamina and safety. We are looking to buy a trike used. A VW model seems to have the highest ratings. For a trike with less than 20,000 miles on it, we are looking to offer no more than $8,000. If you own a trike and this offer interests you into selling, or you are selling a used trike and it suits our preference, feed back is appreciated. We are eager to purchase our trikes before we make our journey down south.

09/18 Keeping Your Shower Clean

There are a number of products which can be used to keep your shower clean.  These shower cleaning devices, and solutions can be very expensive.  What if your on a budget and cannot afford these cleaners?  We explore some ways to keep your shower clean, and save money.

Squeegee:  Works great on plastic shower walls.  Can work on tile depending on the depth of the grouting.  The last user of the shower would <a href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeegee”>squeegee</a> the walls and glass, this will remove moisture and dirt.  This is a perfect solution if you don’t mind the extra effort.  A towel will also work, but would be less effective at removing soap scum.Glass Treatments:  There are a couple of ways to make glass bead water.  Oil can be applied to the glass, if you don’t mind contaminating your tub with the rinsed off oil.  A better solution is Aquapel Glass Treatment.  This product creates a chemical bond with the glass which will make the glass bead water for about 6 months.  You’ll still need to clean the rest of your shower, but your glass shower doors will bead water like a champ.  Vinigar and Water:  Most Internet recipies I would not try out unless I know for sure what the chemical reaction would be.  There are some dangerously toxic mixtures you can make with household chemicals, so read the lable and only use as the manufacture suggests. 

That said, the vinigar and water mixture would create a weak acidic solution which should be safe, but the odor could be offensive.  A suggested recipe is 1 part plain white vinigar to 3 parts water.  This would be put in a spray bottle and used after showers to keep an already clean shower clean.

09/13 Anyone can convert to electric!

I am not mechanically inclined, nor do I know anything about cars except wear to put the gas, how to turn on the radio, drive it, and I do know where the spark plugs go.

When I saw friends of mine driving cars they had converted to electric, I thought maybe I can do an electric car conversion! Yes, I can, and I did! I have saved over $300 just this month is gas.

I can drive up to 50 mph in my car, and it gets me where I am going just as well as my gas car did!

09/09 Noise Pollution And Air Horns

When it comes to loud horn kits, there seems to be lot of debate about the issue of noise and volume. There are those who feel that train horn kits and similar products are nothing more than noise pollution.

I can see the reasoning behind this, but I’ll still have to disagree. I think that these horns do have their time and place. All in all, I find nothing wrong with them.

Personally, I feel as though the air horn has its place in the world of automobile customization. I look at it as just another facet of vehicle modification with its own merits. When used in this manner, they tend to illicit very positive responses.

09/08 number plate cameras get it wrong

In Australia 650 motorists have been wrongly billed for using a toll tunnel when number plate cameras identified the wrong cars. Most cars have electronic tags but when no tag is present the cameras photograph the car and a bill is sent to the driver. The computers attempt to read the registration number first but in cases where this is not possible a human will then determine the number. Problems are caused by number plates which are partially obscured by tow bars, dirty plates and number plates which have deteroriated with age. The authorities are working with the motorists concerned to resolve the issue.

09/04 Water4Gas Review

If anyone is interested in purchasing a water for gas kit then you may want to read the Water4Gas Review that I read.  More and more people are looking for ways to save money on gas, and these kits are the most popular method right now.  The review I read showed me what was in each chapter of the downloadable ebook.  That was I could see a glimpse of what I was going to purchase before I handed over my payment information.  Reading reviews are a great way to get a feel for the product you are purchasing before you do.

08/27 Using Safe Car Parts

One that that is your responsibility as a driver, is making sure your car is safe and road worthy. All the parts on your car should be official parts and not second hand ones are ones that haven’t passed the official regulations. If you happen to have an accident that is because of parts on your car, it is still your fault because you should have your car checked over at least once per year. Also be careful when people fit extra parts, such as water for gas conversion kits or other modifications to the engine. Even roof racks and caravan tow bars should be checked to make sure they are firmly secured.
