If you watched the Super Bowl last weekend you probably noticed that a large portion of the commercials went to the automakers. Today I came across this list of 10 up and coming car companies. You can find the list here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/40887273/ns/business-autos/#.TzA2S_kkols. What are your thoughts on purchasing a vehicle from a smaller new company rather than from one of the larger and well known companies? Would you support these ideas of innovation or stick with your trusty old favorites?

Automakers Head To The Super Bowl
This coming Sunday marks a big day for American culture…pizza, beer, chicken wings, parties…and that’s right, football! This Sunday people that do not even like football will attend parties or tune in to watch the Super Bowl. So what does this have to do with an auto blog? The commercials. Companies spend millions of dollars on advertising during the Super Bowl. Chrysler, GM, Volkswagen, Honda, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Hyundai, Acura, Toyota, Audi, and Suzuki are expected to have commercials during the showdown between the New England Patriot’s and the New York Giants. Below are links to a few automaker commercials that have been released prior to the actual game. Keep an eye out for car commercials during the game! Do you think these commercials are effective?
Why Are You Shipping Your Car?
When forced to transport your vehicle long distances you may drawl a blank on your transport options. Once you decide that you do not want to drive the vehicle your next move is probably off to the internet to research how to ship your car. You will find an assortment of auto transport options from someone willing to drive your car for you to brokers that will arrange every detail of your transport. It is important to determine the most important aspect of your auto shipment, such as the price, travel time, or vehicle safety. Once you determine this it will be much easier for you to narrow down what type of vehicle shipment will be best for you. For example if it is imperative that your vehicle arrive by a specific date for an auto show…and that date just happens to only be a week away, you may want to acknowledge that the lowest quoted price probably will not get your vehicle to your car show on time. Alternatively if time is not a factor and you are just looking for the overall lowest price, going with that low price may be an option as long as you understand that it will probably take some time for your vehicle to move. It is highly recommended that you explain your motivations and the circumstances of your vehicle shipment to your auto transporter to ensure that you receive the best service possible for your shipment.
