Sure, it probably surprises you to see me touting a Ford Explorer gas-guzzling SUV monster as the best car I ever owned, but there is a specific reason for that. This car saved my life.

I only had three months with the car; it was shiny new, bought in August of 1998. I had done vast amounts of internet research preparatory to buying it, and it had come down between the Explorer and a Jeep Cherokee. The one deciding factor was the crash test rating. The Explorer’s acceptable rating raised it over the Jeep Grand Cherokee’s marginal rating. In 1998, I had found a source that rated the Explorer at 5-stars and the Grand Cherokee at 4-stars, and that’s what I used at the time. The ratings I just cited are from a contemporary MSN website, and they seem to bear out my memories in the comparative realm, at least. To my recollection, most of the other factors under consideration were similar'”gas mileage, room, features, etc. But the fact that I chose the Explorer over the Cherokee means, in my humble opinion, that I am here to write this article today instead of moldering away in a forgotten cemetery.

My husband and I had the occasion to crash test the car ourselves at a busy intersection in Tuscaloosa, Alabama in October of 1998, not that we set out to do that. We were on our way out of town for a Halloween party, and two blocks from our home, we …

There was once a car known as the RSX Type-S. With a powerful 2.0 liter motor that put out 200 horse power, and suspension that could compete with world class cars, the RSX was a import enthusiasts dream. However, while the RSX may no longer be in production, it’s spirit still lives on today, and it lives on in a Honda coupe that is known as the Civic Si.

Essentially, the Civic Si is the “Type R” Honda Civic that the United States never got. Although it may not be a true Type R vehicle, it does embody some of the same ideals. An incredibly high revving motor with lots of power, a short shift six speed manual transmission, and an interior that resembles a fighter plane cockpit all contribute to make the Si one interesting vehicle. Although this spiritual successor to the RSX may not be exactly as powerful, it does come very close, and the handling and style of the car are definitely designed to compete with vehicles costing much more than what the Si can be purchased for.

From the moment that one lays eyes on the Si, it becomes apparent that this is not an ordinary Civic. Although the awkward and strange looking “hatchback” version (think bubbly GTI) has since been dropped from the line, the new, more car like design is much better. The car is nicely angled, and although the front end may not have the aggressive appeal that everyone is looking for, the …

Anyone remotely familiar with the import market should be instantly familiar with the car that was known as the Integra. Produced from 1986 until 2001, the Acura Integra was one of the most revered and respected Japanese cars to ever grace American shores. However, most are unaware that the Integra still lives on today, or did, at least until 2006. While it may not be called the Integra anymore, the completely redesigned RSX offers everything that made the Integra such a superb vehicle, and expands on it greatly. Acura has truly created a masterpiece with the RSX, and the 2005 Type S is perhaps the perfect example to point out what exactly makes this particular model such a beauty for drivers, and such a smart buy for almost anyone.

For starters, it’s important to understand that the Type S is nothing if not a drivers’ car. In addition to the 210 horse power 2.0 liter engine, and iVTEC system, the Type S also comes standard with a 6 speed manual transmission, six CD changer, leather interior, sunroof, and a road hugging double wishbone rear suspension. However, a car can come with all the technical specifications in the world, but they mean nothing if all that technology just doesn’t work the right way. Thankfully, though, RSX owners will never have to deal with a problem like that.

Even the exterior of the vehicle is inspiring, a curvy and smooth body, perfectly proportioned with the two door body and a higher back …

You know what every house has? A bottle or a jar with a lid! That means anyone, anywhere, can make cute and aromatic sachets for drawers, kitchens and more. The sachets are so easy to make that even the kids will want to get in on the fun. The little sachets will make drawers and clothes smell great. You can also use the sachets as ornaments on Christmas trees and more.

Jar and bottle lids come in all sizes and types. Whether the lids are metal or plastic they will work well for creating assorted sachets. Sachets are generally placed in dresser drawers and closets, but they can also be used as room fresheners. They can be decorated in different ways to suit any decor theme.

Take any lid or cap and fill it with dry potpourri. Some lids you might consider using would include lids from soda bottles, spice jars, instant coffee jars, or even medicine bottles. Small lids, of course, will not be quite as aromatic as larger ones, since the large ones will hold much more potpourri.

After you’ve filled the chosen lid with the potpourri glue a piece of lace or netting over the top. The netting and lace have holes that will allow the aroma to escape easier than if you cover the lids with fabric. Trim the lace so that it hangs over the side somewhat. Glue the edges of the lace well so that they will cling to the lid as you continue …

The Ford Motor company has seemingly resolved an issue for consumers with the new 2009 Ford Sport Trac. Until now, a consumer looking for a pickup had to either purchase the huge professional trucks or the tiny one with no power. The 2009 Ford Sport Trac gives good power, towing capacity, and work capabilities without going too strong or too weak. Starting at about $27,460, the 2009 Ford Sport Trac gets 15 miles per gallon in the city and 21 miles per gallon on the highway and looks darn good doing it.

On the exterior, the 2009 Ford Sport Trac looks much more attractive than your average pickup truck with an impressive design, including fog lamps. It features a 4 foot by 5 foot open cargo bed with 3 integrated storage compartments and cargo box tie-downs.

The has an attractive yet comfortable interior, but you’ll still know you are driving a pickup truck. Power windows and door locks, a sliding rear window, and a leather wrapped steering wheel with tilt, cruise, and audio controls sets the tone. An overhead console, message center with outside temperature and compass, and driver and passenger sun visors with dual illuminated vanity mirrors have the comfort of passengers covered. The audio system consists of an AM/FM stereo with CD player and MP3 capability.

The 2009 Ford Sport Trac owes it’s superior performance to the 4.0 Liter, V-6 engine, with a 210 Horsepower output. With a trailer sway control system, the maximum towing capacity is 5,250 …

Are you in the market for a small family or personal car? Looking for something that stands out and is sporty? Maybe a look at the Subaru Impreza is in store for you. This article will review the Impreza inside and out.

Size of vehicle

The Subaru Impreza is in the compact car class, so don’t expect to be able to pack five adults into the car for a three day road trip. The Impreza is offered in two different models, a four door sedan as well as a five door hatchback. Both the front and rear seats feature ample headroom, which allows for people well over six feet tall to comfortably fit within the vehicle. Both the front and rear seats feature ample sitting room, however, with all cars of this class, long trips in the rear seats may become uncomfortable. The trunk will accommodate some cargo, but don’t expect to build a house out of it.

Cost

While Subaru Impreza is a very impressive car on the interior, the consumer pays for it up front. The base model 4 door, as well as the five door model, starts at just under $18,000. While this sounds more expensive than other cars of this class, it includes many features not standard on similar cars. Sporty models of the Impreza start at around $24,000 and run to as high as over $33,000. While this seems pricy, it includes a very sporty image, and the speed to back that image up. Remember, …
