If there is one thing that I did not expect to take off, it is the selling of cars on eBay. While GM had good intentions in the beginning, they certainly did not know how to execute them well enough to actually make a different. Sales this far have been pretty look and while eBay states that there have been about 630,000 visits and 960,000 searches of listed trucks and cars, the sales themselves are still pretty slow – on eBay at least.
One thing that I do not think that GM realized when they first started this ploy is the fact that people – unless they are rich, do not want to spend 30 – 40k on a car or truck that they have never even seen. Most of the time, when people are looking for a new car – or even a used car, they want to get in and drive it around or at least see it in person – be able to touch it. They do not want to do this online and that is where the biggest problem is.
All I can say – good luck GM, I really hop that you figure something out … seriously!

Matt Chambers started the Confederate Motor Company eighteen years ago, in 1991. His intention then was to make machines which used avant garde and holist processes to celebrate rebellion and the art of doing it right. The company has lived true to that, with such motorcycles as the Hellcat and the Wraith, which reminded a lot of people of a Terminator inspired contraption.
And now Confederate Motor Company has officially unleashed the power of the Confederate P120 Fighter.
The P120 Fighter features a 120 cubic inch motor — that is 1966 ccs, by the way — which offers up 160 horsepower as well as 145 feet per pounds of torque. Its frame is a lightweight aluminum which allows for nimble, easy handling and a great ride.
Then, too, there is the overall look at the bike. Talk about powerful, right? It looks like the bike from the future — and yes, folks, this is the real thing. No props here!

Car insurance is something that everyone in the world – mostly anyway needs to have. If you are driving a car, you truly need to make sure that you have car insurance, otherwise when you get pulled over, you will get a ticket.
This theory is true in most states and while car insurance is very important, you need to make sure that you are just a little bit picky with the type of car insurance that you get. After all, you do not want to settle just for any old company that is not credible and that you have not ever heard of.
Car insurance is one of those things that you need to spend your time picking out. Research is something that needs to be done and to be completely frank, getting a lot of different quotes from many different companies is something that you should consider doing. After all, you want to make sure that you find the right price to fit into your budget along with the right coverage!
