The New T-Mobile G1
The T-Mobile G1 powered by Google Android boasts cut and paste functionality, but will it be the next phone that everyone's talking about?
At a press event in New York City today, T-Mobile, Google and HTC got together to launch the T-Mobile G1, the first phone to run Google's Android OS. We were at the event and had plenty of time to gather hands on impressions of the phone. Overall we were very impressed. It wasn't a perfect device by any means, there is still obvious room for improvement, both in the hardware and the software. But we were taken in by the phone's deep polish and attention to detail, and the all-important responsiveness of the hardware.
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
The New Stuff
The T-Mobile G1 (nice, easy name, by the way) has a somewhat unique design for QWERTY sliders. It's slightly curved at the lower end, the part that stays in place when the keyboard slides out. The keyboard and buttons were all solid, as we would expect from HTC, and even the trackball felt at least as good as any recent BlackBerry we've tried. The rest of the phone's case felt a little light in the hand. The plastics felt very light, perhaps a little flimsy, and the shell was a bit larger than we'd expect for such a light device. We think there is room to shrink this down in the future.
Enough about the hardware, though. What we really wanted to see was the interface. In this respect, Google has really hit one out of the park. Like the iPhone, the Google interface employs a virtual desktop system to help organize more icons and widgets on screen. Unlike the iPhone, though, the Google phone lets you pick a background picture, and when you pan from virtual space to space, the picture pans as well, like a panorama. The war is on.
We especially liked the compass features on the phone. This is something we've been expecting for a while, since we saw similar functions on the Nokia 6210 Navigator. Basically, the T-Mobile G1 uses a combined compass and accelerometer to display a virtual world on the phone screen, using Google's Street View. So, you can see the street you're on, and when you pan the phone up and down, or if you make an about face, the Street View virtual image will follow your movements. We can't say the compass seemed especially responsive, we'd like to give it a real street trial, but the accelerometer worked very well moving up and down, and provided a very cool, virtual experience.
Like Apple, T-Mobile and Google are also hoping to push applications to the T-Mobile G1 through an application store. Unlike Apple's phone, there will be other ways to load apps to the phone, including simple sideloading from a PC, and Google also made some bold claims about the supposed openness of the device. We'll believe it when we see video conferencing and bittorrent clients clogging up T-Mobile's shiny new HSDPA network. In any case, the T-Mobile G1 ships with an Amazon Music Store App for downloading music in Wi-Fi range. You can check out pictures of the new store here, in our full gallery.
The Good Stuff
We won't go into every detail about the interface design, but let's just say there were many fine detail. Menus opened up after a long press of the finger, just as they do in Windows Mobile. Like that business OS, Google's Android also has cut and paste features. Of course, it can't handle all Office documents, and Exchange support is a mystery, but we'll get to that later.
The interface seemed very responsive in spots where other touchscreen phones have fallen flat. For an HTC device, the T-Mobile G1 can switch display modes, from landscape to portrait, faster than any Windows Mobile device we've seen. Also, the T-Mobile G1 churned through long lists without breaking a sweat, or breaking down. We ran our fingers on the screen track and field style, a test only the iPhone has previously passed, and the T-Mobile G1 kept up without problems.
Network speeds were also pretty good, and the test units seemed to be running on T-Mobile's HSDPA network in midtown Manhattan. We got a GPS signal indoors, though we were within sight of some large front windows. We tried playing some YouTube videos and they looked, well, like YouTube videos. But we found those videos by jumping right from our music playlist, which was a pretty cool feature. There were plenty of similarly contextual features hidden throughout the phone.
The Bad Stuff
Besides the interface, the hardware feels a bit plain. It's quite functional, as we could see even in our brief hands-on period, but it still wasn't anything truly eye-catching. There was a lot of empty space taken up by light plastics. The slide mechanism is unique. The display slides up and to the side, making an arc on its journey and exposing the slide arms beneath. It's unique, but not in a good way. The T-Mobile G1 feels like it could be tighter all around, though perhaps the loose, more casual build is meant to appeal more to the hip, ex-Sidekick crowd.
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
Perhaps this is the same reason why the T-Mobile G1 won't ship with Exchange support. Of course, when pressed, Google execs repeated their new mantra that such support could always be built into the phone with a third-party application. We aren't concerned about the specific lack of Exchange support, but more about how we would synchronize our address books and calendars with the T-Mobile G1. Of course, Google provides all of these services for free with it's Gmail service, and these will work just fine with the phone, at least if the push technology works as promised. In fact, we use many of these services ourselves, but we still rely on Exchange for our business contacts and appointments, and Apple's iCal for our personal stuff. Since there will be no desktop client to synchronize the T-Mobile G1 to our various PCs, how can we expect to access these PIM tools? Wait for a third-party developer, of course. Or, we could learn how to build it ourselves, which seems to be a sly ulterior motive in Google's plan.

Driving Clean
Domain Link Exchange There are rules and regulations that govern the selling of a used car in Ontario and they are designed with the public’s safety and health in mind. Especially since the environmental concerns of the last several years are rising to the forefront of everyone’s minds, the government of places like Ontario have implemented a Drive Clean program that we’re all familiar with but might not know everything about.
The program is a mandatory program that checks vehicles for smog causing problems that the owners need to have subsequently repaired. The tests begin on a rotating basis after the vehicle is five years old and all the vehicles that require the test are reminded when the owners receive their plate sticker renewal packages. Statistics on the program show that an overwhelming number of the car and truck owners in Ontario go out of their way to maintain their vehicles. As of last year, 85% of the twenty million light vehicles including cars passed the test while only 12% failed. The government also has suggestions for the general public so their cars and trucks stay in the majority.
• They suggest that you keep the tires properly inflated. Tires with the right air in them improve fuel economy so the engine doesn’t need to strain.
• Excessive engine idling costs in extra fuel and engine maintenance. The experts suggest that you shut the engine off whenever you can.
• Keep the car light. The more weight you carry in the vehicle, the more fuel you burn.
• Following the manufacturers maintenance program is important. You should especially follow the service schedule to help the car’s lifespan and performance.
• Pay attention to those flashing lights. An Engine Needs Service light is a real indication that there’s something wrong. Ignoring that warning could cost you in repairs to a damaged emissions system.
• Tune your car up properly. A poorly tuned vehicle costs up to 40% more in fuel and can wind up leading to early repairs.
The consumer should remember these helpful tips as there are more and more used cars on the road these days. The cost of insurance and a new vehicle itself is prohibitive in this modern world. As the used car and truck market grows online as well, the savvy consumer will need a professional place to look for the information they can trust. Try AutoProCanada.com for all you vehicle needs.

The Pros and Cons of the Used Car
There&undefined;s no doubt about it anymore, the car market is changing and a lot of that has to do with rising fuel costs. All statistics tell us that more and more people are downsizing in the kinds of vehicles they drive and moving from the more expensive SUVs to the smaller compact models, and there is also a trend that is becoming evident that the used car is selling more rapidly than the newer car.
It is possible to buy a high quality used car for less than market value, drive it for several years, and then resell it at a price close to the original. If you&undefined;ve done your homework and show a lot of patience you can save a lot of money on a used car. Used cars are cheap to buy since the appreciation takes a large chunk of the price of the car as soon as you drive it off a lot brand new.
As well, used cars are cheaper to insure because the replacement value of these is lower and insurance premiums on older cars are lower than the brand new models. For the most part, used cars are well taken care of. Particularly recently, these cars have been turned in after a one, two, or three year lease, and to avoid penalty charges consumers have taken care to make sure these vehicles are up kept in top condition. One of the last advantages to choosing a used car is their abundance.
When you first start looking for a used car on the market you will be amazed at all the choices. With such a wide range to choose from the consumer has quite a bit of power and the ability to walk away from any deal.
But there are disadvantages to the used car as well. Used cars have limited warranties or maybe even no warranties at all. As well, some used cars can have a checkered past and it&undefined;s difficult to get an accurate history of these cars unless there are fully documented service records within the vehicle. Although it may not look that way on the outside, used cars are usually overpriced as well—especially from the dealerships. Make sure you always try to negotiate at least 10% off the sticker price.

Finally there is a disadvantage to the used car that you may not have thought of and that&undefined;s that every used car is unique and because of that finding one that comes together with everything you want can be a chore. Every used car has different mileage, different options, and different driving characteristics. If you&undefined;ve decided that the used car is the right vehicle for you, it&undefined;s wise if you keep your wish list flexible. Make sure that what you expect from a used car is fairly simple and not to elaborate. Used cars tend to come with different variations that are out of the control of the buyer.

Making That Counter Offer
Once you&undefined;ve got a prospective car buyer to the point where they’ve made an offer, it’s time to either accept the offer, reject it, or make a counteroffer. One of the first things that you want to do is show some restraint and not answer right away. In the moment or two that you take to think about the offer, go over the reasons for the original price in your head. It&undefined;s a good idea to be a bit of an actor here, maybe even lapse into silence for a moment pretending you are thinking about the offer. You might even want to say something like,
“Gee that’s a good offer and all, but I checked with a few dealers that told me this was what the car was really worth.”
It may appear to the prospect that you are deeply thinking about their offer but in reality what you are doing is waiting for them to up their price .In the end it’s really all about the barter system. You might go a few hundred under your original asking price, but you want to be sure to go as close as possible to it. One of the things you need to do before the negotiation is set a rock bottom price. Then drop the highest price slowly to make the buyer think they are getting a great deal.
Once you’ve finally arrived at an agreement, one of the last things to do is get paid. In most cases, people are prepared to pay with cash or cashier’s check and you should be well aware that it is a little risky to take a personal check from someone that you don&undefined;t know very well. It&undefined;s important here to eliminate any misunderstandings if the buyer wants to pay with cash. Remind yourself to watch them as they count the bills, or count the money out loudly if they hand you a wad of money. If there is a discrepancy at all let them count the money to be sure or if they&undefined;ve done it, count the money yourself in front of them.
And as the saying goes, the job is never done until the paperwork is finished. Once you&undefined;ve got the money in your possession, you’ll to transfer ownership to the buyer and because the information varies from state to state you should check with the department of motor vehicles in your area to get the particulars. Things can get complicated if an out-of-state bank holds the title. In this case, you and the buyer should go to the department of motor vehicles in your area and get a temporary operating permit. Later on the new owner will have to apply for a permit in their own name. Save Money AUTOPROCANADA.

Helping You to Get The Most For Your Money
Just like selling a home, one of the first things that you’ll want to look at when you decide to sell a used car is curb appeal. No one will even stop to take a look if the car is dirty and they’ll drive right by if they find the ad enticing enough to drop by and then see that it looks less than cared for. The very first thing that you’ll need to do is wash the car so you can see how that original paint looks once it’s been touched up a bit.
When the professionals talk about washing the car they mean cleaning all the exterior surfaces and drying them so there are no chalk white water marks. You should also pay attention to the glass surfaces so there are no streaks left. Remember that you want the vehicle to be as enticing as possible to any prospective buyer—you want it to look as close to new as possible. This is only the starting point for the things that need to be done but the car that you want to sell should already look at least 50% better.
After that there are a few other things that you can do and the next step is to make sure the vehicle is mechanically sound. This means that you’ll want to take it to a mechanic to make sure that there are no real large problems with the engine or electrical system or any of the other features the car needs to run properly. There’s a few good reasons for this. This first is the most obvious—most people wouldn’t want to sell a car to someone they thought was in fine mechanical shape only to find out later there was something wrong. As well, you always get more money for a certified car than one that’s not certified and certification is all about ensuring the vehicle is in at least safe condition.
There are a few other things that are minor but they can make a big difference in the appearance of the car and most of them are inexpensive as well. For example, using a little touch up paint on the scratches or pitted areas will help the car to look newer and applying some product like Armor All to the tires can help bring up their shine. Try wiping down the dashboard and of course clean the ashtrays if you haven’t already gotten rid of them completely. Try shampooing and cleaning the carpets and floor mats too and remember that if the car needs regular maintenance such as an oil and filter change, you should take care of that as well before you put the car up for sale.
There’s one other thing that you can do to speed up the sale. Obtaining a Carfax report will give anyone interested an indication that the title is clear and that the odometer has not been rolled back. "autoprocanada"

Areas of Concern
While you&undefined;re in the process of tweaking your used car so that it sells, there are several areas of concern that you want to take a look at because these are the areas that the consumer or potential buyer will gravitate towards. Understandably, one of the first is the acceleration. If a prospect finds that the car is sluggish in any way, they might be suspicious that there’s something wrong with the engine.
Potential customers will want to see if the car is powerful enough for them and will take their own driving habits into consideration when testing your car. If they do a lot of highway driving, they will want an engine that will bring him to cruising speed quickly and let them pass trucks on the highway in a hurry. Good acceleration also helps any driver’s ability to merge into lanes quickly.
As well they will want to really test the brakes. This means they’ll want to do a little more than just slow down at stop signs so you might want to ride alongside them on any test drive while they stomp on the brakes to see what they’re really made of. Really that’s only fair. If someone is really considering your car, they’ll want to know how it handles in emergencies.
Let them accelerate to their normal driving speed and then stomp on the brakes hard. They might also want to test out the steering in emergency situations as well by turning hard on the wheel. One of the best features that your brakes can show off is ABS—anti-lock brakes. This is a software program in the computer of your car that instructs the brakes to pump even if you stomp on them.
Of course, the suspension is another important part of the car buying process. The suspension determines how the car rides, and how your back will feel when you go to bed. Some of the factors that a prospect will want to look at are how the car handles when driving through a parking lot’s speed bumps. You might even want to give this a try on your own to see if this could be a potential problem area. As well, you can really test out the suspension by going over a railway track to see how the car handles before you go out on any test drive with a prospect in the car with you.
Used cars also have various unique characteristics that the person considering the vehicle will want to test. You want to take the car out by yourself and turn the radio down and roll the windows up so that you can hear how well the car shifts gears and how the transmission sounds. In some cases where there might be extensive problems, it’s best to get a mechanic to have a look at the areas before you put the car on the market. Often, you’ll need to decide if the issue is worth fixing or if the car should just be sold ‘as is.’ -autoprocanada.

Handling Inquiries
One of the toughest techniques that you’ll need to learn to sell that used car is the art of taking phone calls and dealing with people you don’t know. Although it’s possible to sell the car by word of mouth to a friend or family member, most of us that will sell a used car will need to deal with someone we aren’t familiar with. If handled correctly, the whole process can be profitable for both parties and even pleasant, but there are certain things that you’ll need to protect yourself in what might be a tricky process.
Remember that people who call you after they see the ad that you’ve placed will generally want a little more information before they go to the bother of coming to see the car in person. They will be interested so what you’ll need to do here is supply that little extra push by presenting the vehicle in the best possible light over the phone. A cautionary note here—there’s no reason to waste their time and present the car in a false light or tell them a few white lies to get them to come and see the car when they’re going to find out the truth anyway. Be honest. The experts suggest that it’s better if you think of yourself as an information provider rather than a salesman.
You should always lead off with a little pitch though. Maybe something about what a great car the one you’re selling has been or how you really wouldn’t be selling it at all if it weren’t for getting a new one. The people who phone might want you to take the lead—if that’s the case, make sure to go over the vital statistics again even if you’ve listed them in your ad. If they’ve got their own set of questions, then by all means let them run the show. Basically, there are five areas that anyone buying a used car will be most interested in.
• Make, model, year
• Mileage
• Color
• Price
• Options
• Condition
Once these have been established, you can move up to the next level but always be cautious about staying away from a direct sales pitch. For example, you can mention the options the car has but try to remember not to go on too long or list all of them so that you start to sound desperate or needy. Make sure to have a positive reason ready to go about why you’re selling the vehicle as well. Needing a bigger trunk for the samples that you need to fit there as a traveling salesman is a much better reason than wanting something with a better ride.
When the caller is interested, the time is right to tell them about any complications that might arise form the sale. For instance, if the air conditioner doesn’t work and you didn’t get it fixed, here is the time to tell them, but make sure to tell the prospect that you’ve made allowances in the sale price for the defect. - autoprocanada

For the most part, used cars are well taken care of. Particularly recently, these cars have been turned in after a one, two, or three year lease, and to avoid penalty charges consumers have taken care to make sure these vehicles are up kept in top condition. One of the last advantages to choosing a used car is their abundance.
When you first start looking for a used car on the market you will be amazed at all the choices. With such a wide range to choose from the consumer has quite a bit of power and the ability to walk away from any deal.
But there are disadvantages to the used car as well. Used cars have limited warranties or maybe even no warranties at all. As well, some used cars can have a checkered past and it&undefined;s difficult to get an accurate history of these cars unless there are fully documented service records within the vehicle. Although it may not look that way on the outside, used cars are usually overpriced as well—especially from the dealerships. Make sure you always try to negotiate at least 10% off the sticker price.
Just Use autoprocanada.
Finally there is a disadvantage to the used car that you may not have thought of and that&undefined;s that every used car is unique and because of that finding one that comes together with everything you want can be a chore. Every used car has different mileage, different options, and different driving characteristics. If you&undefined;ve decided that the used car is the right vehicle for you, it&undefined;s wise if you keep your wish list flexible. Make sure that what you expect from a used car is fairly simple and not to elaborate. Used cars tend to come with different variations that are out of the control of the buyer.

Making That Counter Offer
Once you&undefined;ve got a prospective car buyer to the point where they’ve made an offer, it’s time to either accept the offer, reject it, or make a counteroffer. One of the first things that you want to do is show some restraint and not answer right away. In the moment or two that you take to think about the offer, go over the reasons for the original price in your head. It&undefined;s a good idea to be a bit of an actor here, maybe even lapse into silence for a moment pretending you are thinking about the offer. You might even want to say something like,
“Gee that’s a good offer and all, but I checked with a few dealers that told me this was what the car was really worth.”
It may appear to the prospect that you are deeply thinking about their offer but in reality what you are doing is waiting for them to up their price .In the end it’s really all about the barter system. You might go a few hundred under your original asking price, but you want to be sure to go as close as possible to it. One of the things you need to do before the negotiation is set a rock bottom price. Then drop the highest price slowly to make the buyer think they are getting a great deal.
Once you’ve finally arrived at an agreement, one of the last things to do is get paid. In most cases, people are prepared to pay with cash or cashier’s check and you should be well aware that it is a little risky to take a personal check from someone that you don&undefined;t know very well. It&undefined;s important here to eliminate any misunderstandings if the buyer wants to pay with cash. Remind yourself to watch them as they count the bills, or count the money out loudly if they hand you a wad of money. If there is a discrepancy at all let them count the money to be sure or if they&undefined;ve done it, count the money yourself in front of them.
And as the saying goes, the job is never done until the paperwork is finished. Once you&undefined;ve got the money in your possession, you’ll to transfer ownership to the buyer and because the information varies from state to state you should check with the department of motor vehicles in your area to get the particulars. Things can get complicated if an out-of-state bank holds the title. In this case, you and the buyer should go to the department of motor vehicles in your area and get a temporary operating permit. Later on the new owner will have to apply for a permit in their own name. Save Money AUTOPROCANADA.

Helping You to Get The Most For Your Money
Just like selling a home, one of the first things that you’ll want to look at when you decide to sell a used car is curb appeal. No one will even stop to take a look if the car is dirty and they’ll drive right by if they find the ad enticing enough to drop by and then see that it looks less than cared for. The very first thing that you’ll need to do is wash the car so you can see how that original paint looks once it’s been touched up a bit.
When the professionals talk about washing the car they mean cleaning all the exterior surfaces and drying them so there are no chalk white water marks. You should also pay attention to the glass surfaces so there are no streaks left. Remember that you want the vehicle to be as enticing as possible to any prospective buyer—you want it to look as close to new as possible. This is only the starting point for the things that need to be done but the car that you want to sell should already look at least 50% better.
After that there are a few other things that you can do and the next step is to make sure the vehicle is mechanically sound. This means that you’ll want to take it to a mechanic to make sure that there are no real large problems with the engine or electrical system or any of the other features the car needs to run properly. There’s a few good reasons for this. This first is the most obvious—most people wouldn’t want to sell a car to someone they thought was in fine mechanical shape only to find out later there was something wrong. As well, you always get more money for a certified car than one that’s not certified and certification is all about ensuring the vehicle is in at least safe condition.
There are a few other things that are minor but they can make a big difference in the appearance of the car and most of them are inexpensive as well. For example, using a little touch up paint on the scratches or pitted areas will help the car to look newer and applying some product like Armor All to the tires can help bring up their shine. Try wiping down the dashboard and of course clean the ashtrays if you haven’t already gotten rid of them completely. Try shampooing and cleaning the carpets and floor mats too and remember that if the car needs regular maintenance such as an oil and filter change, you should take care of that as well before you put the car up for sale.
There’s one other thing that you can do to speed up the sale. Obtaining a Carfax report will give anyone interested an indication that the title is clear and that the odometer has not been rolled back. "autoprocanada"

Areas of Concern
While you&undefined;re in the process of tweaking your used car so that it sells, there are several areas of concern that you want to take a look at because these are the areas that the consumer or potential buyer will gravitate towards. Understandably, one of the first is the acceleration. If a prospect finds that the car is sluggish in any way, they might be suspicious that there’s something wrong with the engine.
Potential customers will want to see if the car is powerful enough for them and will take their own driving habits into consideration when testing your car. If they do a lot of highway driving, they will want an engine that will bring him to cruising speed quickly and let them pass trucks on the highway in a hurry. Good acceleration also helps any driver’s ability to merge into lanes quickly.
As well they will want to really test the brakes. This means they’ll want to do a little more than just slow down at stop signs so you might want to ride alongside them on any test drive while they stomp on the brakes to see what they’re really made of. Really that’s only fair. If someone is really considering your car, they’ll want to know how it handles in emergencies.
Let them accelerate to their normal driving speed and then stomp on the brakes hard. They might also want to test out the steering in emergency situations as well by turning hard on the wheel. One of the best features that your brakes can show off is ABS—anti-lock brakes. This is a software program in the computer of your car that instructs the brakes to pump even if you stomp on them.
Of course, the suspension is another important part of the car buying process. The suspension determines how the car rides, and how your back will feel when you go to bed. Some of the factors that a prospect will want to look at are how the car handles when driving through a parking lot’s speed bumps. You might even want to give this a try on your own to see if this could be a potential problem area. As well, you can really test out the suspension by going over a railway track to see how the car handles before you go out on any test drive with a prospect in the car with you.
Used cars also have various unique characteristics that the person considering the vehicle will want to test. You want to take the car out by yourself and turn the radio down and roll the windows up so that you can hear how well the car shifts gears and how the transmission sounds. In some cases where there might be extensive problems, it’s best to get a mechanic to have a look at the areas before you put the car on the market. Often, you’ll need to decide if the issue is worth fixing or if the car should just be sold ‘as is.’ -autoprocanada.

Handling Inquiries
One of the toughest techniques that you’ll need to learn to sell that used car is the art of taking phone calls and dealing with people you don’t know. Although it’s possible to sell the car by word of mouth to a friend or family member, most of us that will sell a used car will need to deal with someone we aren’t familiar with. If handled correctly, the whole process can be profitable for both parties and even pleasant, but there are certain things that you’ll need to protect yourself in what might be a tricky process.
Remember that people who call you after they see the ad that you’ve placed will generally want a little more information before they go to the bother of coming to see the car in person. They will be interested so what you’ll need to do here is supply that little extra push by presenting the vehicle in the best possible light over the phone. A cautionary note here—there’s no reason to waste their time and present the car in a false light or tell them a few white lies to get them to come and see the car when they’re going to find out the truth anyway. Be honest. The experts suggest that it’s better if you think of yourself as an information provider rather than a salesman.
You should always lead off with a little pitch though. Maybe something about what a great car the one you’re selling has been or how you really wouldn’t be selling it at all if it weren’t for getting a new one. The people who phone might want you to take the lead—if that’s the case, make sure to go over the vital statistics again even if you’ve listed them in your ad. If they’ve got their own set of questions, then by all means let them run the show. Basically, there are five areas that anyone buying a used car will be most interested in.
• Make, model, year
• Mileage
• Color
• Price
• Options
• Condition
Once these have been established, you can move up to the next level but always be cautious about staying away from a direct sales pitch. For example, you can mention the options the car has but try to remember not to go on too long or list all of them so that you start to sound desperate or needy. Make sure to have a positive reason ready to go about why you’re selling the vehicle as well. Needing a bigger trunk for the samples that you need to fit there as a traveling salesman is a much better reason than wanting something with a better ride.
When the caller is interested, the time is right to tell them about any complications that might arise form the sale. For instance, if the air conditioner doesn’t work and you didn’t get it fixed, here is the time to tell them, but make sure to tell the prospect that you’ve made allowances in the sale price for the defect. - autoprocanada

You might even want to give this a try on your own to see if this could be a potential problem area. As well, you can really test out the suspension by going over a railway track to see how the car handles before you go out on any test drive with a prospect in the car with you.
Used cars also have various unique characteristics that the person considering the vehicle will want to test. You want to take the car out by yourself and turn the radio down and roll the windows up so that you can hear how well the car shifts gears and how the transmission sounds. In some cases where there might be extensive problems, it’s best to get a mechanic to have a look at the areas before you put the car on the market. Often, you’ll need to decide if the issue is worth fixing or if the car should just be sold ‘as is.’

Areas of Concern
While you're in the process of tweaking your used car so that it sells, there are several areas of concern that you want to take a look at because these are the areas that the consumer or potential buyer will gravitate towards. Understandably, one of the first is the acceleration. If a prospect finds that the car is sluggish in any way, they might be suspicious that there’s something wrong with the engine.
Potential customers will want to see if the car is powerful enough for them and will take their own driving habits into consideration when testing your car. If they do a lot of highway driving, they will want an engine that will bring him to cruising speed quickly and let them pass trucks on the highway in a hurry. Good acceleration also helps any driver’s ability to merge into lanes quickly.
As well they will want to really test the brakes. This means they’ll want to do a little more than just slow down at stop signs so you might want to ride alongside them on any test drive while they stomp on the brakes to see what they’re really made of. Really that’s only fair. If someone is really considering your car, they’ll want to know how it handles in emergencies.
Let them accelerate to their normal driving speed and then stomp on the brakes hard. They might also want to test out the steering in emergency situations as well by turning hard on the wheel. One of the best features that your brakes can show off is ABS—anti-lock brakes. This is a software program in the computer of your car that instructs the brakes to pump even if you stomp on them.
Of course, the suspension is another important part of the car buying process. The suspension determines how the car rides, and how your back will feel when you go to bed. Some of the factors that a prospect will want to look at are how the car handles when driving through a parking lot’s speed bumps.

pros of buying a used car.
The Pros and Cons of the Used Car
There's no doubt about it anymore, the car market is changing and a lot of that has to do with rising fuel costs. All statistics tell us that more and more people are downsizing in the kinds of vehicles they drive and moving from the more expensive SUVs to the smaller compact models, and there is also a trend that is becoming evident that the used car is selling more rapidly than the newer car.
It is possible to buy a high quality used car for less than market value, drive it for several years, and then resell it at a price close to the original. If you've done your homework and show a lot of patience you can save a lot of money on a used car. Used cars are cheap to buy since the appreciation takes a large chunk of the price of the car as soon as you drive it off a lot brand new.
As well, used cars are cheaper to insure because the replacement value of these is lower and insurance premiums on older cars are lower than the brand new models. For the most part, used cars are well taken care of. Particularly recently, these cars have been turned in after a one, two, or three year lease, and to avoid penalty charges consumers have taken care to make sure these vehicles are up kept in top condition. One of the last advantages to choosing a used car is their abundance.
When you first start looking for a used car on the market you will be amazed at all the choices. With such a wide range to choose from the consumer has quite a bit of power and the ability to walk away from any deal.
But there are disadvantages to the used car as well. Used cars have limited warranties or maybe even no warranties at all. As well, some used cars can have a checkered past and it's difficult to get an accurate history of these cars unless there are fully documented service records within the vehicle. Although it may not look that way on the outside, used cars are usually overpriced as well—especially from the dealerships. Make sure you always try to negotiate at least 10% off the sticker price.
Finally there is a disadvantage to the used car that you may not have thought of and that's that every used car is unique and because of that finding one that comes together with everything you want can be a chore. Every used car has different mileage, different options, and different driving characteristics. If you've decided that the used car is the right vehicle for you, it's wise if you keep your wish list flexible. Make sure that what you expect from a used car is fairly simple and not to elaborate. Used cars tend to come with different variations that are out of the control of the buyer.

MTV THE HILLS
MTV addresses more trash. Not really sure what the point of MTV Canada is besides ranking in the advertising dollars but the host are weak. At time I find myself feeling sorry for them and even embarrassed. Not sure why but the way they present themselves
On TV So giddy up.
There are a couple good show but for the most part shows like, “The Hills”, “Hogan Knows Best” and other similar make me sick. So yes like most suggest I just turned the
Channel. MTV Canada on Channel 102 will be participating with Canada’s Juno’s so it may help out a little with the ratings. So what about auto shows on TV.
Driving.ca with the help of Global Television is one show that uses all resources to advertise their auto paper along full of auto dealerships. Here is a list of all the Auto papers I know of that are available in Canada.
Auto Trader

New Car
Auto Mart.ca

These are just a couple Auto papers that I know of. As for Auto websites here is the list.
www.autoprocanada.com

Kijiji, craigslist.com selling cars
n terms of size, the Jeep Patriot is similar in many respects to the Compass concept, and both were unwrapped at the same time at the 2005 Frankfurt show. Both are based on the same platform, too. But the aim of the Patriot is somewhat different, as it is targeting a different market sector by being more utilitarian in style. It is immediately recognizable as a classic Jeep, for a start. Higher ground clearance gives plenty of space between the tires and body, something important for greater wheel articulation in serious off-road driving. Additionally, the Patriots more upright stance suggests a more practical off-road design than the lower-riding Compass, which has firmer suspension to match its road-car ambitions.
Pronounced wheel arches, an upright windshield making a definite corner to the roof panel, horizontal cant rails, and recessed square side windows: these are all features typical of the traditional Jeep. But in contrast to Jeeps much larger and more powerful models such as the Liberty and the Cherokee, the Patriot like the Compass is planned for a global market. Essential, therefore, is a choice of 2.4-liter and 2.0-liter diesel power options.
The Patriot at the Frankfurt show was painted armor green, with black accents and dark-tinted windows a fitting color scheme for a practically oriented vehicle. Together with the strong horizontal shoulder line that runs right through from the headlamps to the taillamps, this helps to give it the look and feel of an authentic 4x4 with rugged credentials.
The Patriot is only one of a large number of recent concepts presented by Jeep: each explores subtly different ground in bringing the Jeep message to a broader public. This model is closer to the core of what the Jeep brand currently stands for, so expect to see its influence in forthcoming volume production models.
Sell My Ride...Over the Internet
Buying and selling a car online has never been easier
When it comes to buying and selling cars, more and more Canadians are turning to the Internet. From the bargain hunter looking for an old "clunker" to the automotive enthusiast or collector with a dream car, using the Internet to find that automotive deal or sell your car is mounting in popularity.
According to a J.D. Power & Associates 2004 study, 85% of recent car buyers said the Internet impacted their purchase. And among first time car buyers, 35% report that the Internet is their most important source for information, compared to 8% citing TV, 4% citing magazines, and 3.6% citing newspapers (Polk Center for Automotive Studies, January 2006).
The surge in buying and selling cars online is due partly to the ease and flexibility of some web sites. For instance, Kijiji Canada (www.kijiji.ca), a free community classifieds site, enables people to quickly and easily sell their cars online. There is no need to register and sellers have no limit on word count, can post multiple photos, and their ad appears live on the site instantaneously – all absolutely free.
As one of Canada's leading classifieds sites, Kijiji is unique in that it focuses on sales by private individuals and is designed for local trading. Thirty-seven percent of used vehicles traded in Canada are bought and sold between private individuals, as many people prefer to deal directly with other individuals rather than auto dealers. Kijiji is designed to help these individuals connect with others locally. Kijiji offers 21 city-specific sites across Canada so people can buy and sell cars with others in their own city or town.
A variety of cars, SUVs, trucks and vans are listed on the Toronto Kijiji site (http://toronto.kijiji.ca) including Honda Civics', Vespas', BMWs' and Mercedes Benzs'. So if you're looking for that vintage ride or just cheap and cheerful transportation, consider Kijiji.
If you're thinking of selling your vehicle online consider these helpful tips:
Using the net to sell your car
* Use all the space you can when writing a description. Selling a car online is not like selling a car in the print classifieds: most online classifieds sites do not have a word limit so use the space to provide details! Some useful points to include:
o Year, make, colour and model
o Engine type and transmission
o Options and comfort features
o Mileage
o Ownership history
o Condition, including any superficial or structural damage
o Recent service history (if available)
o Warranty or certification.
* Including photos of your vehicle is very important to generate interest from potential buyers. To get the most out of your photos:
o Wash your car before taking pictures
o When taking pictures, provide a virtual walk-around of the car, both inside and out
o Include as many pictures as possible
o Provide an email address and/or phone number.
Cole Reiken (see bio below) is an industry "expert" and member of the Kijiji team. He is available to speak with you regarding buying and selling a car online. He can also provide references of people who have bought and sold cars on Kijiji.

Preparing for a Sale Auto Pro Canada
Preparing a Used Car for Sale
There are hundreds if not thousands of used car places to buy and sell that used vehicle that you’ve been wanting to rid of. With the advent of the Internet, the number of these places has grown to the point where people buy and sell used cars and trucks online and the whole transaction is often done online. That means the competition is fierce with a new sleek professional site like the one at AutoProCanada.com coming out almost every day. So you’ll need an edge to stay on top. You’ll need a little something that puts your car or truck at the top of the heap.
The experts have a few suggestions on how you can make that used car or truck stand out. The first of these is to decide if you want to sell online or in the local newspaper and trade magazine. They suggest that the Internet is a viable option and has been since it became a viable economic force a decade ago, and they also suggest you look for the type of site that will draw in some traffic like Autopro Canada.com. They’ve also got some suggestions on what to do to prepare the vehicle for show.
Remember that a clean shiny car gives the impression that the owner cared for the vehicle. A good wash on the outside and a thorough vacuum on the inside is probably good enough for an older model. A new car should be taken to a dealer or if that isn’t possible, the local car wash usually has a few extra services that will make the vehicle look great before you go to sell it.
You should also fix any obvious damage on the car. Although fixing the damage could possibly eat into what you hoped to make on the transaction, not touching any bent fenders and such could result in the entire deal falling through and you staying stuck with the vehicle. If there are several dents to repair, the experts suggest that you find a body shop that will give a discount on all the work being done at once.
Try to find all the service records and keep them together as well. It’s a good selling feature to be able to show a perspective buyer a list of the things that you’ve done to keep the vehicle running smoothly.

www.autoprocanada.com hybrid stop copying us!!!
Stop Copying Us!!!! Be creative do your own marketing instead of just watching AutoproCanada grow!
In the next 24 months, General Motors (GM), Chrysler, Daimler (DAI) and BMW (BMWG) will collectively bring out at least nine hybrid trucks and sport-utility vehicles, including the Chevrolet Tahoe and Chrysler's Aspen and Dodge Durango, which are being unveiled this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show. But for the conditions of a joint technology agreement among the companies, each vehicle might have a badge on its side-panel that says "GM Inside."
That's right, GM, once a laggard in fuel efficiency technology, is making its nemesis Toyota (TM)—the undisputed image leader in fuel-efficient transportation—take notice by starting a new and legitimate rivalry for the next generation of hybrid trucks and SUVs, as well as plug-in vehicles. Chrysler, Mercedes-Benz, and BMW all opted in 2005 to adopt GM's hybrid technology in a four-company venture, rather than to license Toyota's hybrid hardware.
Hybrid Trucks Ready to Roll
GM launched the Chevy Tahoe hybrid last month, while the rest of the companies are rolling their hybrids out in 2008 and 2009. The Durango and Aspen hybrids are expected to increase fuel efficiency by 20% to 25% over their gas-only counterparts, or about 18 city/23 highway. The SUVs will come with 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engines with Multi-Displacement System (MDS), also known as "cylinder deactivation," as well as a feature that allows the engine to stop at traffic lights. That means, under highway cruising conditions, only four cylinders will push the SUV down the road unless it's packing a huge load. The improvement in city driving fuel economy, though, is 40% over the gas-only version.
Mercedes is using the same two-mode, hybrid transmission technology in the ML450 Hybrid, set to launch in 2009. BMW showed its first vehicle utilizing the technology from the venture in the X6 ActiveHybrid concept vehicle it showed last September at the Frankfurt Auto Show. The X6, scheduled to go on sale in the fourth quarter of 2009, can be driven on electric power only, on the combustion engine alone, or with a combination of both power sources.
It may surprise many consumers that companies as historically finicky and image-conscious as Mercedes-Benz and BMW would opt for GM's hybrid technology over Toyota's. After all, an internal study by GM last year showed that 70% of the consumers the automaker polled described GM as "part of the problem" when it comes to climate change and the impact of automobiles on the environment, whereas 70% of the same group described Toyota as "part of the solution."
GM's Solution Packs More Power
GM began its hybrid technology program in the shadow of Toyota. The Japanese automaker introduced the Prius hybrid in 1998 in the face of GM skepticism that there was a market for such a vehicle, or that it was the right sort of vehicle to carry a hybrid system. GM was developing a system for diesel-electric hybrid city buses with technology it planned to leverage into pickup trucks and SUVs. Toyota was clearly successful in terms of tapping into consumer desires and in developing a green halo that serves it well today. "There is no question that we [GM] underestimated the marketing power of the technology," says Larry Burns, GM's executive vice-president for research and development.
However, Toyota's hybrid system does not work well for towing or pulling heavy loads associated with pickups and SUVs. That's why Toyota has yet to introduce a hybrid version of its Tundra pickup (BusinessWeek, 1/30/07), or of SUVs such as the Sequoia and the Land Cruiser.
