In this week’s blog post, we will explore a little history of the Alpine car company and learn about the car that saw the most success from its introduction, the A110 R.

Ford is already introducing the 2024 Mustang Dark Horse and I have to say it looks very sexy…for a car. It has so many defined and jaw dropping features, making this a very stylish car overall.

2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E
Ford has finally done it! They have entered the wonderful world of the Electronic Vehicle (well they are into the third year, but this is the first vehicle under the Ford name that is electric). It comes with a wide range of equipment packages and has a lot more to offer than just the sporty vibe that comes with the Mustang name. Customers will be able to choose between the content-rich Premium model or the souped-up performance of the GT. Ford even stands behind the fact that this car can travel for more than 300 miles before needing a charge. This car stands out for more than one reason and…
