Ferrari S.P.A


Ferrari S.P.A is an Italian sports car. Its manufacture based in Maranello, Italy.
Enzo Ferrari founded Ferrari as Scuderia Ferrari in 1929. Enzo Ferrari stated that he never intended to produce road cars when he made Scuderia Ferrari in 1928 as a sponsor for time pass drivers headquartered in Modena.
The first Ferrari road car was the 1955, powered by 1.5 l V12 engine in 1947. Enzo Ferrari unwillingly built and sold his automobiles to fund Scuderia Ferrari. The company has been noticed for its continued participation in racing, where it has had outstanding success.
Ferrari manufactured and successfully raced, different drivers in Alfa Romeo cars until 1938, when he was appointed by Alfa Romeo to run their motor racing department.
In 1941, Alfa Romeo was seized by the patriotic government of Benito Mussolini as part of the Axis power's war effort. Enzo Ferrari's distribution was small enough to be unpretended by this. He was forbidden be contract from racing for four years.
The Tip 815 was the one race car produced in the non-competition time. It was the first Ferrari car, ( its firstly appeaned or drived at the 1940 Mille Miglia ).
The Ferrari Factory moved to Maranello in 1943, where it has remained ever since.
Enzo Ferrari launched the Ferrari F40 in 1988, became his last launched Ferrari after his death.
Ferrari introduced the Enzo, the fastest model at the time in honor of the great founder of Enzo Ferrari. It also created a World Record of the most wealthy automobile, however, as each one cost 1.8 million dollars for a piece.
Ferrari cars are generally known as a symbol of wealth and luxury.

The Best Minivan in North America


When we think about minivans, we think about the three main ones, the Nissan Quest, Honda Odyssey, and Toyota Sienna. They are really good ones, but when speaking in the behalf of money, we think Kia Sedona, Leather, Cheap and want to get our selves one of the Kia's. Kia it self is a good company but suffers from low resale value and since it is Korean it inst reliable. Maybe you are a person who dislikes minivans and think you can use a 7 passenger suv such as the Acura MDX, until you realize it lacks space and can not deal like a minivan. So which minivan is the best? Lets find out. In the previous generations, it was all about being different. Before 2004, all vans had a different shape and different interiors but Honda Odyssey was clearly the winner. The   1999-2003 Honda Odyssey EX-L with RES was my favorite but it lacked a sunroof. The sienna had the worst shape but had a classy interior. Nissan Quest was also a good one but not popular and had a lot of Engine noises. In 2004 Toyota and Nissan both changed their vans, Honda took a year break which I think was worth it. The 2004 Nissan Quest was all about being different, but it was also controversial, was it the bold styling or the problem that the battery kept dying for no reason? The 04 quest had the worst resale value in this comparison. But i honestly like it,  the interior is very spacious and sporty rather then other minivans. Then the 2004 Sienna also came out which was a complete change from the previous generation. The Sienna's Exterior by far was the most classy but the interior seemed more like a Buick's interior. Wood  and boring written all over. It was not anything special but still sells more then the Quest or the Odyssey. In 2005, Honda launched the redesigned Odyssey. I think it  won the cup, the Touring model was the best minivan to date. It was a fully loaded van you can say, with the best exterior I had seen. The interior was roomy yet it was capable of seating 8. The exterior was awesome because it showed an angry look unlike the Quest which clearly said I don't want to mess with anyone.  So for that Generation, the Honda Odyssey is the winner. In 2007, Nissan decided that they need to catch up with Honda so they had a mid refresher for the Nissan Quest. They finally changed the controversial speed gauge and put it where it belonged, which was a great idea, they also put dual dvd's and kept the panoramic roof. The exterior changes included a new grille, which I liked. Toyota Sienna had no changes and kept going, they did have a refresher and  put in a GPS for the XLE Limited. In 2008, Honda Odyssey changed a bit too, the new changes included a new type of grille and a new model called the DX. Nothing major but it did make it look more angrier. Now we are in 2012 and all of the vans changed in 2011. Honda odyssey I hate to say it came 3rd on my list. The interior is by far the best no doubt, but I question what they have done to the exterior? The back looks like a person whose sick and seems very squished. It does not belong there so I dislike the exterior, it seems more like a Chrysler Pacifica,  an Adult mini Bus. The interior is great though. 2nd Place is the Nissan Quest, it changed a lot. I was a fan of the large middle row windows but since they changed it, it looks alright. Some good features include a power sliding door with the option of not grabbing the handle. I like that but I really dislike the tail lights. So Ladies and Gentlemen, the winner of the Minivan Segment is the 2011 Toyota Sienna. Good Interior, Good exterior, Good performance, Good resale value. What else do you need? So in Short, used minivans still sell and a lot of people buy them, So if your budget is between $1000-$6000 get the 2004 Honda Odyssey EX-L with RES. If you are Willing to get to $7000 to $10000 get the 2004 Nissan Quest SE , if you can afford $11000-$20000 then get the Honda Odyssey Touring and if you can afford more get the New Sienna XLE!

Underride Crash


When a car and a truck get in an accident, the car has one disadvantage; an under ride crash. An under ride crash is one of the most dangerous accidents and usually occurs on highways. Here is a picture of an under ride guard which is required on all trailers. But did you know that most under ride guards fail to stop a collision? According to IIHS; most of these guards fail to stop fetal accidents causing a lot of deaths. The Canadian standard is higher than the American standard. However; cars still manage to get under the truck even with the Canadian standard. If a car traveling at 55 KM/H following the truck in a lane behind goes underneath, the odds are the car will stop before it reaches the windshield of the car. If that happens, the passengers and the driver would be safe and would not have to deal with any serious injuries. If a car changing lane following behind a truck crashes on the side of the trailer, the under ride guards will fail to stop the car from under riding and will cause death to anyone in the front seats or possibly in the back too. The safest thing to do when following a truck on a highway is to maintain a safe distance from the back, say three car lengths. Or you can overtake the truck. To stay safe, just remember this: If you cant see the truck driver in his mirrors, he cannot see you.
