Why the Tesla Is the Best Car
About a month ago my boyfriend and I had the opportunity to test drive a Tesla. The car belonged to one of our good friends after we test drove the car we decided to look into what makes the car work. As we were test driving the car we noticed that the engine made no sound, there are no gears in a Tesla making the ride smooth and quiet. The car can go from slow to outstandingly fast in a matter of seconds, The increase in speed is caused by the lack of gears making it accelerate at an impressive state.

Why Sports Cars Are Often the Most Reliable Used Cars
Every genre of car has its own reputation. Muscle cars, for example, are known for not always being very reliable cars. Pickup trucks are known for being rugged enough to withstand offroading — and possibly a nuclear bomb.

How to Jump a Car Battery
Not everyone knows how to jump start their car battery. If you have zero clue on handling that situation, I'm with you there. Nothing is turning on — nothing. At first, you don't realize that your car battery is the problem. Then you flip open the hood of your car and you just stare at your car's organs like it's some sort of a medical procedure you're about to handle. Some of us don't even know where the car battery is. I've gone through this same incident.

Most Reliable Midsize Cars
Midsize cars are a wonderful compromise on a number of different factors. They offer enough room for you to pack up everything and head out without issue. They are zippy and compact enough to handle well on the streets and still be fun to drive. And yet, they do it all without compromising on leg room.

Spots in Your Car That Everyone Forgets to Clean
You don't need to be the owner of a classic muscle car or a super expensive sports car to want to keep your car clean. Keeping your car's interior pristine is incredibly important, especially if you're like me and have allergies to dust and grime. It's not like it's that terrible to do, either.

Most Reliable Sports Cars
Having a sports car is often considered to be a luxury purchase, and to a point, people tend to make the (wrong) assumption that sports cars aren't reliable as a result. After all, the idea many have is that people who drive sports cars probably have enough money for regular repairs — and that repair bills won't bother sports cars drivers.
