  • Choosing a Good Auto Window Tint Shop

    Most metropolitan areas have an abundance of tint shop choices. In the San Francisco, CA area alone, there are 30 different tint shops within a 30 mile radius. How does a discerning consumer choose the tint shop that does quality work? What is the difference between a "Dr. Tint" and a "Quality Window Tinting"?

    We at TintCenter.com Window Tinting Guides suggest that you do a little research. First, compile a list of 5 potential tint shops that are likely to do ...

    The Hybrid Car

    A hybrid car has a small engine that is fuel efficient, which is combined with an electric motor that aids the engine when additional power is needed during acceleration. The electric motor gets its power from battery banks which continuously charge while you are driving.

    Energy is conserved when you stop because the engine is shut off automatically. Then, when you apply gas, it automatically restarts.

    The hybrid car also uses a more advanced aerodynamic lightweight body, and combines it with low roll resistant tires that are stiffer and narrower to help reduce drag.

    In 2004, out of the 17 million vehicles sold there were around 80,000 hybrid vehicles sold. By 2005 that number had increased by 1.2% to 200,000, and it's estimated that by 2007 more than 400,000 hybrids will be sold.

    There are several hybrids currently available in North America. They include the Honda Civic, Honda Accord, Honda Insight, Toyota Prius, and the Mercury Mariner. There are also Hybrid SUVs available - the Ford Escape, the Lexus 400H and the Toyota Highlander, and many new models are on the way.

    The Toyota Prius holds 52% of the hybrid market with just under 108,000 vehicles. The Honda Civic is the next most popular with 25,000 vehicles.

    Now that consumer support for the hybrids has arrived, auto manufacturers are increasing the pace at which they introduce hybrid models. Just starting to come out are the Honda CR V SUV, Saturn Vue, Hyundai Accent, and Kia Rio are being introduced as hybrid models. In 2007 we will see the Toyota Camry, Honda Fit, Mazda Tribute, Chevrolet Malibu, and Nissan Altima; and 2008 will see the Ford Fusion and Mercury Millan available as hybrids.

    And as an added bonus in the United States, consumers that purchase a hybrid will get a tax break. Those purchasing fuel-cell vehicles will get up to $8000 in tax breaks, and those purchasing alternative fuel vehicles that weigh less than 8,500 pounds get a $2500 tax break. It's a nice pleasant surprise!

  • Benefits of Hybrid Automobiles

    High fuel prices and concerns over the environment have inspired more people than ever to go in search of alternative energy sources.

    VW's Car/Bike Hybrid Shifts Like a Rocket
    Responding to consumer demand for high-mileage vehicles, Volkswagen on Thursday previewed a sport car/motorcycle hybrid that goes from 0-60 in less than 5.7 seconds and gets 50 miles to the gallon. Unveiled at the 2006 Los Angeles International Auto Show, the GX3 is a three-wheeler (two at the front, one at back) that accommodates two helmeted passengers. Though only a concept, Volkswagen said the machine could go into production very soon and cost less than $17,000. Volkswagen, Europe's largest car maker, said the vehicle blends the comfort of a sports car with the speed and fuel consumption of a motorbike. Based on a four-cylinder engine driving the back wheel, the GX3 will accelerate as fast as high-performance racers, the company claimed. It will also be allowed on California's car-pool lanes because it would be classed as a motorcycle.
