Whenever I have some free time I like to go online and read up on what’s new in the world of cars, trucks, and motorcycles. These are things that I have had a keen interest in ever since I was a young boy. As a teenager I spent many hours under the hood, of a car – either my own car, my father’s ford mustang, or a friend’s jeep. I was always so excited whenever my father let me help him change the oil on his mustang – afterwards he’d take me for a spin in it down to the local ice cream parlor for a sweet treat.
I’ve been thinking about the chevy avalanche specs I was reading – I’m hoping to buy a new pick-up in the near future, and my heart has always belonged to Chevy or GMC trucks. If I were in the market for a car, though, I’d want to give the honda crosstour a test drive. I’ve heard that it handles well and gets good mileage, too. There are so many great sounding cars out there it’s hard to make a decision!
I imagine that anyone who comes to my blog and sees my Wordpress Theme can tell that I happen to like cars – a lot! One of my hobbies is to go to car shows and take lots of pictures of the cars at the show. Another hobby is rebuilding cars in my garage in my spare time. My next car that I want to restore is a 1970 Chevy Chevelle with a 409 big block! The torque on these babies is tremendous! It’s just like getting on a roller coaster!
My wife gets bored from looking at all of the car photos that I download onto my computer. I guess she just doesn’t “get” my enthusiasm for cars. Especially the older cars that the owners customize with after market accessories!
Now my wife, she gets a lot more excited about looking at new cars. She’s been wanting to buy a kia since back in 1998 when she was thinking about buying a new four wheel drive vehicle to commute to work. At the time, though, the car reviews were not very flattering about the kia car and she ended up buying a Subaru Outback Sport. That car has needed some repairs off and on, but one of the things about Subarus is that if you take really good care of it those cars will run almost forever!
The biggest complaint we have about that little car is the road noise; I think that if they had insulated the roof better we would like it much better!
