Sometimes You Just Need A Truck

There are many car people out there who prefer cars over trucks. They like the gas efficiency, easy maneuverability, and compact size of a car. Don’t get me wrong, cars are great especially if you are looking for all of these qualities. Trucks do not really offer these type of qualities. However, they do provide other qualities that compact cars cannot. Trucks are lovely traveling vehicles, they are large, so you can fit a lot of stuff in them. They also have a backend which is perfect for hauling large items such as furniture, two by fours, and camping gear. Another quality that trucks have over cars is that they have larger engines and they can typically haul horse trailers, flatbed trailers, travel trailers, pop-up campers, etc. Anything you need a lot of space for or a high amount of horsepower for, a truck can do it.

What Kind of Truck Should I Get?

The type of truck you get should depend on your needs or jobs you plan on using it for. If you're hauling a travel trailer, you will obviously need something with quite a bit of horsepower in a larger engine and something that has fifth wheel conversion. If you’re looking for something just to haul a small number of supplies may be for work, then you can choose a smaller truck that may be better on gas mileage and a little easier to maneuver. There are all kinds and types of trucks out there but they typically also serve the same purpose. They are convenient when you can’t fit particular items in a compact car or an SUV. If you are a truck owner and you have friends and family who do not own one, then you are well aware that you might be the first person they call when they need something moved. Secretly, we are all wishing they would just invest in their own truck.

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen

How Movies Portrayed Car Salesmen Since the 80s and through the 90s, movies involving car dealerships shined a negative light on car salesmen and painted a stereotypical picture. These comedic characters came off as shady, sleazy, pushy, and willing to do anything to make the sale. The News Wheel has listed the Top 5 Worst Car Salesmen from Movies and they're some pretty bad ones. Here are my three favorites from the list. Rudy Russo from the 1980 film Used Cars . A young Kurt Russell portrays Rudy Russo, a state Senate hopeful. In order to get a $10,000 campaign investment from used car lot owner Luke Fuchs, Rudy must help him sell some cars to keep his business up and running. While doing so, Rudy uses standard stereotypical used car salesmen techniques like cheesy commercials, fast-talking, and pressure selling. He even baits a customer from a competing lot by using a $10 bill on a fishing line to get the man to cross the street. Joey O’Brien from Cadillac Man . The ...

Why Buy Through a Pre-Owned Car Dealership

Why Buy Through a Pre-Owned Car Dealership When you hear the words “used car dealership” you think of pushy salespeople trying to sell you an overpriced clunker. But there advantages to buying from an independent car dealership. And if you keep in mind that not all salesmen are trying to make a quick (and dishonest sale) you just might find the vehicle you deserve. The Advantages If you decide to go the route of buying from a dealer, instead of a private seller, you can choose some extra options for your vehicle. You can opt to have an extended warranty to cover your vehicle after the manufacturer warranty expires, curb rash can be removed, and special promotions may be offered, such as free oil changes or free tire rotations. Dealerships care about their reputation, it’s how they keep customers and gain new ones. So you can expect that customer service will be top-notch and they won’t just wash their hands clean after the sale. Dealers also offer their own financing and financ...

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America Over the years, Route 66 has provided travelers, dreamers, and renegades with an experience no other route can give. Established November 11, 1926, covered 2,448 miles and originally ran through eight states starting from Chicago, Ill to Santa Monica, CA and quickly began to be one of the most popular highways in America. It soon became known by other names such as The Mother Road, Will Rogers Highway, and was spotlighted in John Steinbeck’s classic novel The Grapes of Wrath. When The Great Depression hit in 1929 over 200,000 traveled to Californa seeking reprieve from The Dust Bowl and used The Mother Road to escape. Some traveled west with the promise of work. With barren land surrounding them, farmers and their families gathered essentials and traveled west in hopes of work. Towns, mom and pop businesses, and service stations along the highway survived The Great Depression by catering to travelers with supplies, fuel, and car parts. Res...
