My Long Hair Under The Hood

Ever seen a woman with her head under the hood? Don’t be amazed for it just shows how women of this age get through the quest to dominating over men. So if ever you think that automotive is a masculine thing, think again. Observe and get swept off by a woman’s heel.

As a college driver, I make it a point to be responsible for my own cars. The following are just some of the maintenance practices that I have learned so far with my roadster and crossover. If you are a female college driver like me, you can perhaps learn from these:

LUBRICATION

Moving parts settle from corner to corner underneath the sheets of a vehicle. And most of these suffer from extensive frictional heat. This is the reason why you need to regularly check and change the oil. There are other important fluids that include power steering fluid, which can let you control the steering wheel conveniently and not as if it is intended for the muscles in your triceps! The brake fluid and transmission fluid equally as important. Once you keep these fluids properly applied in particular auto systems, then you’re gonna save thousands of dollars. Trust me.

ELECTRICITY

As a young driver, the entertainment system is surely one of my priorities. This system will never run if not with the proper supply of electricity, which refers to the battery and fuses. Aside from the entertainment system, other auto systems will most importantly need electricity. Among the most essential ones are the auto lights and air conditioning systems. So never let the battery run out of charge especially when you are off for a long journey.

TIRES

Always bring an extra tire every time you drift off your garage! Who knows, the next time you are about to park your vehicle, one tire is rolling like a jelly. Also, make sure that every time you leave, have all the tires inflated properly. Never under or over-inflate them ok!

COOLING

The engine is one of the busiest auto components in your ride. Once it gets exhausted, you will be forced to bring your head under the hood. This is what I always ensure with my Lambo roadster. Just imagine how I am gonna deal with my elegant car that blows off black smoke underneath its brawny bodywork! Duh! To avoid this, make sure that the cooling system is regularly checked and maintained.

Age or gender is not a requirement for being accountable in driving and owning a car. So as a female college driver, I see to it that I can let my hair under the hood and get my hands ready for grease stains. Having my roadster and crossover is perhaps more than luxury. It is a responsibility.

Ford Sync Steps It Up With Just The Right Car Accessories

The interior of your car is just like your pink room while far away from home. Thus, you make it pleasant so that you will spend respite conveniently. All interior accessories should be all set and functioning well. Among the most useful and perhaps necessary gadgets (relative to your lifestyle), are the cell phones and players. These devices allow you to be anywhere while still getting connected with your friends and at the same time, enjoying your favorite music.

Such useful and entertaining gadgets are continuously developed by manufacturers. Fortunately, Ford has come up with an advanced design known as Ford Sync. This has been a joint project of Ford and Microsoft.

Instead of having a separate connection for the phones and players, Ford Sync is an all-in-one solution that can be updated from time to time. This sync targets “generation Y”, which refers to the people born between 1981 and 1995.

There are many vehicles that are provided with the connection from digital music players to the audio system. With these, you still have to cycle through your songs on the player itself or if not, a connection will be used to allow the iPod play via the dashboard’s audio controls. Similarly, Bluetooth wireless phone connections have also been used over the years. This allows you to interface with a wireless headset or other applicable gadgets.


How does it work?Sync can interface with just about any player or Bluetooth cell phone. This will allow any of your passengers to connect their phones through the integrated Bluetooth technology. The software will detect an address book and transfer the contacts to an internal database. Similar to other Bluetooth cellphone links, Sync can let you enjoy hands-free calling. This can be done by pushing a button on the steering wheel, then speak the name or number of the person you want to call.

From the traditional Bluetooth path, Sync diverts path by using text-to-speech technology to read aloud any text messages. The system is designed to effectively translate commonly used text message phrases. You can also make a reply to an audible text message from one of 20 predefined responses.

Other features such as caller ID, conference calling, caller log, call waiting, and signal strength are also found on Sync. Further, your personal ring tones can also be played. The mp3 players are connected to the system through a USB 2.0 port, which can also charge the player. You can operate the player through voice commands too. Just make sure that the music is properly filed from genre to genre.

Sync is upgradeable. Ford and Microsoft are working hand on hand to allow dealer service technicians to perform updates. Also, updates are made available thru the internet so that you can download and install them yourself.

How much does it cost? Totally not cheap, I bet.

Have You Seen Any Doors In The New LOREMO Concept Car?

LOREMO

Another futuristic car model is here! Wow. This Loremo car really amazes me. Its bodywork is unconventional yet, very pleasing to our sight. Look at that awesome fascia and hey, check out the hood at its grandeur strut. Haha. Wait! It is not actually a hood? You will get into this Loremo by a lateral threshold, so instead of two lateral doors, there is one “gate”. Thus, that is not a hood! it is actually the frontal door that opens forward before the seats, taking the steering wheel with it! Have you seen the roof and the doors? They are laid out as a two-layer plastic construction with some laminated interior sides. Worried about your baggage? The rear seats provide wide space for them. Instead of a longitudinal adjustment of the seat, the pedals and the steering wheel will be adjusted to you (if you are the driver). The rear seats are installed against the line of travel and the dashboard is replaced by a simple device mushroom-shaped with a display.

LOREMO NEW CONCEPT CAR

Loremo AG introduces this new Loremo Concept Car that will let you enjoy a drive while keeping your pocket at ease. This is because of the fuel economy that is brought by the reduction of weight and air resistance.

Fuel mileage : 1.5 litres / 100 km

Simple yet elegant, it is. This new concept car is a product of dedication from automotive engineers of AG who aimed to provide a driving machine that exhibits comfort, design, and efficiency.

The combined aspects of aesthetics, simplicity, and aerodynamics are vividly seen on the car’s features. The low air resistance is designed from the excellent Cw value of 0.2 and from a frontal area which has been reduced to the minimum.

If you want to be a Loremo’s driver, you will just need 300 liters of fuel at an annual road performance of 20,000 km, compared to a conventional small car that can consume 1,600 liters of fuel while assuming the same performance.

Loremo concept car is offered in two models, the Loremo LS and Loremo GT. The LS model is powered by a 20 hp, 2-cylinder turbodiesel. On the other hand, the GT is designed with a 50 hp, 3-cylinder unit. Both models have 2 2, mid-engine/RWD configurations with a 5-speed gearbox. In contrast, the GT has an advantage on speed (from 0-62 mph in 9 seconds), while the Loremo leads over it because of fuel efficiency (1.5 liters/100 km compared to the GT that consumes only 2.7 liters per 100 km.)

How much do these Loremo cars cost? Approximately, LS car model will be priced $13,100, while the GT car model will be more or less than $18,000.

Buy Me This Bugatti FGB Dad!

“Bugatti y Hermès presentarán un Veyron exclusivo en GInebra” 

Whatever this sentence means… I want that Bugatti!
My jaws are stuck in amaze again. I was never an enthusiast who follows Bugatti models but look at my bulging eyes now. When I saw Veyron FGB, there is one person who entered my mind- my dad. I know it is too much but hey, I have been an honor student since I was 6 and not only that, I have also been the president of our batch since 9. Don’t I deserve a Veyron then? Pleaaaaaaaase daaaaaad!

Why am I so into this ride? Look at this….

wargh! look at that!!!!

BUGATTI VEYRON Fgb

With its color and paint trim package, you can tell that the Bugatti Veyron FGB is special. Its face has been revamped with a brushed-aluminum trademark horse-collar grille, flanked with a panel and two air inlets. The mesh grilles (and radiator opening) and lower inlets (engine air snorkels aft of the passenger cabin and rocker panel inlets) have a pattern reflecting the Hermes “H” motif.

If you check out the interior, you will see the sand-colored leather everywhere. The inside door pulls have been reconfigured to appear more like luggage latches than door handles. You will also recognize the bespoke leather and Hermes logos on the wheel hubs and fuel- filler door speak to the car’s pedigree.

As is, Bugatti Veyron has its legendary performance from 1001 bhp, V16 quad-turbocharged engine, which drives a factory claimed 0-62 mph at 2.6 seconds. By the way, this Bugatti model costs nearly $2 million.

See-Thru Car Bra, Anyone?

Have you ever compared your ride to your own body? Oh well, maybe this will require so many exemptions like if you are skinny and you have a brawny Cherokee jeep. Kidding.

Like our body, vehicles are made up of several parts that compose different systems. Furthermore, these are accessorized to improve aerodynamics, convenience, form, and aesthetics. Auto accessories are of great help, especially to meticulous car owners. One of the best accessories that you should install on your ride is the transparent car bra.

The surface of your ride’s hood is never safe from flying road debris and insects. I am sure you do not want these detrimental elements to just leave chips and stain over the sleeking finish of that wide area on the fascia. Thus, a car bra is always great for protection.

Transparent car bras have paint protection film conversion and installation services. These have carved a niche for themselves because of their ability to minimize paint damage. A car bra can ensure you that the paint of your ride is not virtually sandblasted from everyday driving.

A Transparent Bra is always great for preserving the beauty of your ride. Just imagine how an SPF lotion protects your skin from the harmful effect of the sun’s rays. This is almost the same with how the car bra shields the hood from the inevitable flying debris. This car accessory is easy to install, as you can do it yourself.

Not like traditional bras that have always been cumbersome, transparent car bras can be left on indefinitely, washed, and then waxed along with the rest of the car. Furthermore, these bras use a special clear impact-resistant urethane film that is specially made for automobile finishes.

It;s A Plane... It's A Space Shuttle... It's Mach 5!

A time machine. Wacha think? Haha. The mere sight of its white, curvilinear bodywork will transport most thirty- and forty-something car enthusiasts back in time! What an amazing car design we have here. Looking at its features just takes me into a fantasy world where super Speed Racer goes wheel to wheel with a squad of racing villains.

Racer Motors Mach 5 >> “The animated series, titled Speed Racer (called Mach GoGoGo in Japan) is the brainchild of animation legend Tatsuo Yoshida, and it eventually developed a loyal following among American preteen viewers. Broadcast on a UHF station in my hometown, Speed Racer was my favorite program in the early 1970s. You might say it kick-started my passion for automobiles.”

Futuristic Furai Is The New Mazda Car

I am always amazed by new car models that are engineered with futuristic features. And this one that I have found earlier did not fail to hit me with a dropped jaw. Woooah. My bulging eyes are again focused on the details of the astonishing Mazda Furai. "Furai," referring to "sound of the wind", is the fifth evolution of Mazda's new design language exemplified in its initial Nagare concept (Nagare refers to "flow"). This working concept has begun life as one of Mazda's 2006 season ALMS P2 race cars.

The following are the specs and significant features of Mazda Furai

• Built on a Courage C65 chassis

• Powered by a 450-bhp 3-rotor rotary engine, ethanol (E100)-powered concept

• Complex outer shell that clearly follows its predecessor's design trends

• Front-fascia channels direct air to the brake ducts

• Sculpted flanks create turbulence which draws air to the side ducts, keeping the engine cool in conjunction with the radiators mounted in the car's side pods

• Aft of the gullwing doors, flow-directing details continue to guide air over the car's rear haunches toward a large, functioning, adjustable-element spoiler. The sharp element you see protruding from the roof is called an A

• Air Fang that optimizes ram air induction

This new concept car will surely make a hit in autoworld. (I wish my dad has enough savings to buy me one.) With Mazda Furai’s sophisticated aerodynamic design, even batman will dump his own batmobile to take it for a ride.

The unique design of Furai took an American Le Mans Series (ALMS) racecar and translated its appeal of the Courage C65 chassis.

Its aggressive look and strong appeal are reminiscent of the past concepts such as Hakaze, Ryuga, and Taiki. Take a closer look on the details and recite your own woooahs…
