safety agencies, along with the new active-safety options offered in the 2013 Cruze, it offers one of the most comprehensive safety packages of any compact sedan” (Halvorson). The Chevy Cruze comes with a very high tech air bag system with very unique features. For instance, the car doesn’t just have front airbags but also rear, side, overhead, and even knee airbags. This provides for the most possible protection for any person, whether they are by themselves or if they have a packed vehicle.

This makes it to where if you have too much power and the car feels that you can’t control it, the car will take some power away from the motor, thus making the drive suitable for anyone to handle. This feature also applies brakes to the car so that the driver does not lose
Travelling across the country in an old Ford Model T would never be easy; but, traveling in a Model T on a bumpy dirt road with ruts and holes, almost unbearable. Thankfully, many advances in America’s roadway systems came about in the 1900s. Traveling from one city to another became not only quicker and easier, but also safer, thanks to the many innovations that roadways experienced over the last century. Many engineers put in a lot of time and effort to make these innovations and need to be accredited for their scientific achievements. However, getting to the roadway system that we take for granted today did not happen overnight. It took new technology and some brilliant minds to bring the pieces together to form the luxury of nice, smooth
“The Red Convertible” by Louise Erdrich, is a story of two Native American brothers whom share a deep bond and very close relationship before circumstances start falling apart; throughout the story, the reader learns about Henry’s psychological state. As the narrator, Lyman, informs the reader, they owned a car for the first time “We owned it together until his boots filled with water on a windy night and he bought out my share.” (358) is when a magnificent brotherly can be seen connection. But the time passed by, and their link was breaking apart, because a war situation. Although Henry and Lyman are the main characters, Lyman invests most of the time describing how he feels of Henry’s life before and after he went to war and how the relationship was deteriorating.
Throughout the play, the playwright Edward Albee made it so there is a clear showing of several different literary allusions. But in this case, in that particular scene, the focus is on Tennessee Williams A Street Car Named Desire. First of all, In the beginning of the scene, the point where she is talking to herself, you can spot that she makes some references to “The Poker Game” the painting based on the scene in which fragile Blanche comes in on her animalistic brother-in-law Stanley's poker game. And secondly, George, when he enters with the flowers in hand, or snapdragons, he is seen quoting a line of dialogue that comes from Williams play, the famous line "Flores para los muertos," which means flowers for the dead. Now here is the explanation or the comparison that can be made here. We all know that, in the play Streetcar, this particular line is used to foreshadow Blanches death. Not her physical death though, more so, it is used to foreshadow her emotional and spiritual death. In Woolf, George is using that line to foreshadow his announcement of "sonny-Jim's" death. Not only that, but it is also used to proceed the spiritual decimation of his and Martha's marriage. In addition to that, there is m ore death foreshadowing that can be seen, when we think or the part where Martha yells "Pansies! Rosemary! Violence! My wedding bouquet!" This line is making a reference to Hamlet, the part where Ophelia does her crazy speech where she offers imaginary flowers. Martha is heard using the word violence instead of violets in order to characterize her marriage. This offers shadowing of death also since Ophelia gives her mad speech before drowning herself. I think the greatest theme that this scene, this Act and the play in...
A Tesla automobile features so many innovative designs. Automobiles are 100% electric, they include wireless updates, auto pilot, massive batteries, chargers, and the design. The Model 3 features a price point that is very similar to a gas-powered car in the modern century.

The most common safety feature of the car is its seat belt. Unfortunately this is also the most commonly ignored feature of the car. You can increase your chances of surviving a car crash by 50% just by putting on your seat belt. There are different types of seat belts. The most common one on cars that you buy are the three point seat belts. They stretch across your shoulder and your lap for better protection if you are in a crash. There is a lot of engineering that goes into seat belt, and the technology that we have today makes them as safe as they can possibly be. Your seat belt automatically secures you as so as the ignition is turned on. If your car comes to an abrupt stop, your seat belt stops you from moving forward because it has pretensioners that tighten the seat belt and prevent you from flying through the windshield. The seat belt is connected to a retractor mechanism that has a spring to rotate it. It has the technology to lock itself during a collision. It can either be triggered by the car or belt’s abrupt movement.
When I was fourteen I began the search for a vehicle. I want to find an older truck or muscle car to fix up and have done by the time I got my driver’s license. So every day I would search the web for what would be the best looking, easiest to work on, and cheapest vehicle I could find. I fell in love with the look of the square body Chevy short bed trucks and it was all the things I was looking for; the hunt was on for the one for me.

Blanche is a beautiful woman who struggles to live up to her expectations as a southern belle and shows many signs of mental instability due to the death of her young husband many years ago. While Stella on the other hand married an abusive husband whose relationship with her is a rollercoaster of excitement and disappointment. Southern Society perceived the ideal woman as one who followed the ways of the Virgin Mary, staying pure until marriage and tending to their husbands every whim. However in street car the women are treated more like slaves having to cooking and cleaning to please Stanley with no recognition for their hard work. In animal farm the pigs reward the animals for their hard word determination to build the working on the windmill and their bravery in the battle of the cowshed. Even before Blanche arrival she resorts to prostitution after the loss of her job which in society’s eyes made her unworthy of marriage.

Mazda, a relatively small player in the world automobile market in the automobile market at that time, wanted a string international partner in order to make the transformation from being a small niche player to becoming a major global automaker.

One of the very first things a buyer should consider when looking for a car is what kind of car he/she wants. Many different factors can affect the car buying process. For one, the buyer must consider how big of a vehicle he/she wants and safety features like airbags, seatbelts, and working brakes. Itemizing a list of accessories can also help narrow down what kind of car to buy. While some people might prefer a Sedan with a large back seat and seat warmers, others may prefer an extreme luxury car with full stereo systems and miniature televisions. Every person has different tastes in accessories; luckily, there is a vehicle that can fit almost every personality. Most new models have the latest technology installed, although some of the “newer” used cars have the option of adding in those accessories. Once the...

In addition to the car model and color choices were decisions on options packages. And having seen the "pimped out" SUVs on MTV Cribs, complete with two or three LCD screens (one in the dashboard for the driver, of course), DVD player, speakers costing more than my college education, GPS navigation systems similar to those used in the Space Shuttle, heated seats, and 20 inch chrome wheels, my eyes were wide with opportunity. After checking on financing and whittling down the alternatives to what I might really need or want, I ended up with the most basic of standard packages.
