It seems that a good amount of people are using their tax returns to purchase new cars and taking advantage of the stimulus package that has been extended. My sister and her husband are buying a chevy Volt. My cousin is looking seriously at a nice for fusion hybrid, which I think is pretty darn cool. They have always been Ford people and I don’t think they will ever change in that area. We are creatures of habit.

At work people are using their down time and going online looking at various new cars. The gal that sits next to me is going crazy over the new nissan rogue, I expect to be hearing soon if her husband will approve and to see her driving into the employee parking lot with her brand new car at any time.

Myself, I’d be checking into the hyundai genesis. Check this one out that I found online earlier. Man, wouldn’t I look good behind the wheel of this pretty piece of 2010 metal! A girl can dream can’t she?

I’ve always had at least one cat in the house. I’ve never been much on dogs, but all types of animals are dear to my heart. The Internet is full of the funniest photos of all types of animals and I am always on the look for new photos with cats in them. This is my latest find.

Romancing The Road

This is a wonderful video that my best friend sent me today. She always comes up with some pretty cool jokes and videos. I never seem to have enough time to find these types of things, so I’m glad that she keeps them coming and coming and coming……

I just got this email from my friend in South Carolina. I’m assuming that this is a true announcement, but one never knows these days. Guess I’ll wait to hear more about them, possibly on the evening news.

New Michelin Tires… Absolutely SCARY looking…

Look for ‘em in August. These tires are made in Greenville, South Carolina , USA …

SEE THROUGH TIRES

Radical new tire design by Michelin. The next generation of tires. They had a pair at the Philadelphia car show.

philly show

Yes, those are ’spoke’ like connections to the inner part of the tire from the outside tread ‘wrap!’ The next picture shows how odd it looks in motion…

2nd tire

 Makes you wonder how the ride feels doesn’t it?

3rd tire

 These tires are airless and are scheduled to be out on the market very soon. The bad news for law enforcement is that spike strips will not work on these.

Just think of the impact on existing technology:

A. no more air valves…

B. no more air compressors at gas stations…

C. no more repair kits…

D. no more flats…

These are actual pictures taken at the South Carolina plant of Michelin.

I have always enjoyed a nice looking vehicle. One day I’d love to own my own brand new vehicle, driven by yours truly right off the show room floor, paid for in cash money. Well a girl can dream can’t she? I’ve owned a few nice cars in my time, but never a brand new one and never with cash money.

There are so many types of wonderful cars out on the market these days. I’m afraid that I’d be hard put to have to make a decision if and when the time comes that I was able to do such a thing. So many things to consider and so many options, my goodness, I really wouldn’t even know where to start. All though I would certainly start on the Internet.

A nice Mustang would be great, all though I like the old and new models of the Ford Mustang. One with one of the nice custom billet grilles and a custom paint job would be a great beginning to make it my “dream Mustang”. Nothing but the best and custom all the way. Still dreaming…………
