10th Generation 2014 Chevy Impala Has A lot of Promise

Fri, 27 Apr 2012 17:49:00 -0400

It’s been quite a while since the Chevrolet Impala has gotten a make-over. The Impala has always been a reliable vehicle among the industry but its unappealing appearance has had some describe it as primitive, and far behind the times. But not anymore!! The 2014 Chevrolet Impala looks amazing and has a lot to offer. This vehicle will be available in front-wheel drive and offer 3 engines to work in conjunction with the standard six-speed automatic transmission. According to motortrend.com, the engines will be direct-injected and includes a 2.4-liter I-4 with eAssist mild hybrid technology, estimated to produce 182 hp and 172 lb-ft of torque; a 2.5-liter Ecotec I-4 estimated at 195 hp and 187 lb-ft; and the familiar 3.6-liter V-6 producing 303 hp and 264 lb-ft. The 2014 Impala has also undergone a nice exterior makeover that keeps the traditional look while subtly incorporating new features. Check out the unveiling of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala at the 2012 New York Auto Show here!

Mike Anderson Chevrolet Asks, "What is Leap Year?"

Wed, 29 Feb 2012 18:49:00 -0500

Leap year (or day) is defined as an extra day that occurs every four years on February 29th, making the year 366 days long, instead of 365 days. But why do we need an extra day, every 4 years? Well according to timeanddate.com, leap days are needed to keep our calendar in alignment with the Earth’s revolutions around the sun. It takes the Earth approximately 365.242199 days (a tropical year) to circle once around the Sun. If we didn’t add a day on February 29 nearly every 4 years, we would lose almost six hours every year. After only 100 years, our calendar would be off by approximately 24 days!

The ancient Roman Calendar added an extra month every few years to maintain the correct seasonal changes.

Datsun 120Y/Sunny (1973-1978)

In the 70’s, the 120Y was the car that turned some skeptical European eyes to the other side of the world, and enjoyed some great success.

These funny looking Coupés with their funky looking pie-dish hubcaps shared some serious loving with their owners, especially since their peppy little engines provided great fun in just about every roundabout.
