Muscle cars are a staple part of the cultural consciousness of developed North America; even those not familiar and really not too interested in engines and power can't help but turn their heads when a Barracuda or a Mustang rolls by. The combination of power and style that these cars bring together has always appealed to North Americans, from the early years of muscle cars in the classic 1960s right up to the present day. The problem with muscle cars has always been the same; people see them as impractical, both as family vehicles and in terms of economy. They have never gone out of style as far as looks, and maybe even desire, but they have never been able to reproduce the sales success they...

The life settlement industry was propelled into popularity by the viatical settlement industry. History has shown us that the early adopters of life settlement were those who were suffering from AIDS and who had only a couple of years to live. They sold their insurance policies assuming they would get immediate cash in return from the person who bought it. When medical breakthroughs found their way to fight the AIDS virus, these senior citizens lost out because they had to pay premiums for a long time. Some fraudulent companies also resorted to marketing this concept in order to make a fast buck by giving senior citizens the hope of further investment. Life settlement occurs when the holder of a...

We approach a steep downhill slope where the trail just seems to drop away from you. Since we don't have a good view of the approach to the descent, Justin, the Land Rover driving instructor, suggests that we step out of the car to get a better sense of what lies ahead. We jump out of the confines of the Range Rover's luxurious cabin onto a slippery surface of loose sand and rocks - suggesting that this may get somewhat tricky. The Range's parked just before a sharp left turn leading to the descent, which means that we have to turn the car and have it pointing straight before we start heading downhill - try going sideways through a steep downhill slope and you're likely to find yourself on your...

In Italy there were quite a number of designs for wind-driven vehicles, none of which were ever built. Leonardo da Vinci designed a clockwork vehicle, but that too remained just a concept. In America there were two prominent figures who would be remembered as forefathers of the modern automobile--Ransom E. Olds and Henry Ford. Olds was the first mass producer of gasoline-powered automobiles in America, while Ford built several prototypes and began selling cars in 1903. However, these cars were really...

There's plenty to consider when buying a new or used car without the anguish of fretting over your credit status, and wondering whether your car loan will be approved. Unfortunately, because of that fear of being rejected many people don't even bother to apply for car finance. Perhaps due to what they have read, or maybe because they were mis-informed by well-meaning friends or family, many would-be car buyers dismiss the idea that they ever could get car finance.

The American automobile industry began in the early 20th century and has been a huge factor in creating the society we live in today. It was the driving factor in creating the system of superhighways linking the country together. It was the driving force in the creation of the suburbs, many of which you can only get to by car. And, on the negative side, it can be argued, that it was the primal force in helping to speed the breakup of the nuclear family. It made travel so easy that it became almost trivial for family members to move cross country and start a family unit in an entirely new state.
