No matter what you drive, cool gadgets and car accessories can make an antique car futuristic.
Should You Include Amazon Alexa in Your Car?
If you were around in the 80s and 90s, you might recall the cellular car phone. At the time, you may have thought it was the coolest, smartest, most futuristic gadget imaginable. Of course now, like many things we reflect back upon and analyze, this bulky, awkward invention is obsolete, and arguably ridiculous, in the minds of millennials and beyond.

Swap Gears with These Hilarious Shift Knobs
I drive a Nissan Sentra. It's far from a cool car, and my son Jarret lets me know that every time I pick him up. There's not much I can do about it other than outfitting my car with a few cool accessories. I bought some chrome skull valve caps but the kids in my neighborhood stole them! So, now I'm looking at shift knobs because they're a way to communicate to my son, "Hey, I'm a cool guy," without breaking the bank or inviting thieves.

12 of the Best Selling Backup Cameras and Displays
Regardless of what you believe in, we all say a little prayer anytime we back up in a crowded parking lot or onto crowded streets. I recently got a new car that has a built-in backup camera and I do not know how I ever lived without one. Instead of frantically cracking my neck back and forth 20 times, I can now calmly check behind me once, twice at the most.

The First Car
Look, we all have that dream car. We all do, don't deny it. We all have seen or heard about that car we have to have. No matter what we do, we must have that car. I have had the same dream car since I was about 17. It's been a 1967 Chevy Chevelle SS, and it is the only car that I would ever own that would be a manual, because I am strictly an automatic driver—always have been, always will be. But this article isn't about the dream car, it is about our first car, which is just as poetic as that dream car that we all hope to get. I look back, and while my first car was a piece of shit, it was mine. I bought it with my own money, I didn't have help with it, I didn't rely on others to buy it for me. I bought it. I could call it mine. It was my first bit of freedom when I was a kid; it was my whole world. I could go and do whatever I wanted. I had a way to leave the house and travel around, go to the movies, go to work, and not have to wait or, god, hope someone would want to take me. No, I had something that could do all of that at the snap of my fingers.
