New Car
Remember watching The Price is Right in the old days back when Bob Barker was hosting and when Lido Iacocca wasn't begging the government for bail out money? Those were the days. One of the best memories the 1980s brought us was the definitive Bob Barker moment when he pointed to the showcase room as sidekick Rod Roddy exclaimed that the lucky player could win..."a new car!" The audience erupted into applause and the lucky player flipped out on a national television. That should be the quintessential new car moment in an American's consciousness.
Many people are growing uneasy about the American automobile industry and the bailout situation happening in 2009. However, most people think it's just a matter of time before the situation is resolved. We are living in a country that is obsessed with success, free living, easy transportation, road trips, faster cars, traffic tickets and of course, those life-saving antilock brakes. While it's reasonable to assume that the auto industry will undergo a major change in the 21st century, it's not realistic to project the industry will be ending anytime soon. American consumers love buying American cars-especially new cars that are loaded with top-of-the-line features.
Just think about some of the newest features for 2010 and 2011 models and try to remain calm. In the next couple of years, new cars will have automatic rain-sensing wipers (No more manual control necessary!). New cars will also have extra-cold air-conditioned compartments which will operate as soda cooling zones. Other cars will boast a "smart transmission," which is a new form of automatic transmission that works via electronic clutch. Other new features include voice turn-by-turn navigation and even self-parking cars. That's right, your kids will finally pass the dreaded parallel parking test!
These are just some of the many new features coming from new cars in 2010 and onward. Though the news of the auto industry bailout might make you nervous, consider a little know fact that's sure to inspire you: now is actually the best time to buy a new car, better than any other time in recent history! Due to the economic recession, cash prices are at an all time low and financing terms are downright generous. The auto industry needs to sell a new car every day and is willing to work with you on terms, interest and credit.
Regardless of what happens in the auto industry bail out, there's no question that we are going to need transportation in the next few years as we always have. Cars, trucks and vans are responsible for transporting individuals to work, products to retailers and families to luxurious vacation sites. Treat yourself to... "A new car!"
