I am having second thoughts now about buying a small car. At first my wife and I have planned to buy a Peri from Great Wall Motors but now we are talking about buying a passenger van, the Cowry, also from Great Wall Motors Philippines.
I am saving up to buy a Peri by Great Wall Cars. I am highly considering it more than more popular brands because of the features it offers which are more than other more popular brands in its class of econo cars. First, among econo cars, it has a 1.3L engine In-line, 4-cylinder DOHC 16V engine which gives more power than any other econo car. Combine this with a gross vehicle weight of 1,315 kg then it gives a higher power to weight ratio than other cars with 1.3L engine.
I have a friend who settled in North Carolina after finding a job there. He worked as a nurse and in a few months, was able to buy a house and its insurance, a car, also with insurance and his own health care insurance from a North Carolina health insurance agency.
When I heard this, I felt happy for him and asked what type of car he got. He said it was a 2003 GMC Sierra 2500 HD pick-up truck with a Duramax 6.0L engine. I looked it up and I was impressed. I just hope that maintenance costs on it would not be too much.
The exhaust pipe and muffler of my car needs to be replaced so I can get the vehicle tested for its smoke emission. I figure that a new muffler would cost about $30-35 and an additional $5-10 fro labor. I just hope that there are no pipes that need to be replaced so as not to add to the cost.

Using a picture editor you can make use of its virtualization services of how your car would look like with the new changes.
In more ways than one, weekends are the culmination of each week. You dream of it in between meetings and phone calls. You plan it in your head as you walk on hallways. You make mental lists of things to do or places to go to as you pile a report on top of another. You imagine it as you snake through the urban jungle.
But for all the perfect moments a weekend connotes, the getaway of your dreams can easily turn into a cursed ordeal. First there is always the problem of space, especially for those traveling with friends and families. Then there’s the inconvenience of a noisy engine and a bumpy ride during long trips. And with the rising cost of fuel, gas mileage is also a consideration. With all these things coming into the scene, your weekend can begin looking like another stressful day at work. (more…)
