The 2013 Bugatti 16c Galiblier
I know you have been waiting. You are wealthy, but pragmatic. You desire the best in life, but only when it has justification. There is no sense in just owning things, they must be useful as well. Well, here it is... the 2013 Bugatti 16c Galibier. Finally, a 1000HP luxury sedan with rear seating so that you can take along the kid(s) in their gold plated, rear facing child seats no less.

Are You Stuck in a Buying Rut?
One of the things most people do that they probably would like to change is the process of falling into habits. Some habits are comforting, but others can be destructive. My wife's father worked for 30 years at the same company, the last 20 years in the same position, in the same building, in the same office. She told me that if she ever wanted to go eat lunch with him she would just need to look at the calendar and see what day it was... On each day of the week was a designated restaurant, and it never varied. I don't know if a habit like that could be considered destructive (like smoking or overeating) but it certainly wasn't very imaginative.
If you live in a small town I think you know what I mean... and if you have ever tried to move to a small town and open a business, I KNOW you know what I am talking about. Getting people to change their habits can be tough. All of the reasons you give for trying to move their business to you, are probably the reasons they are stuck where they are... loyalty, service, familiarity, etc.. Hopefully the reasons they will stay with you once you can prove yourself.
That is where we find ourselves on the internet with Autopartstomorrow.com . Although we have been around, selling auto parts since 1928, we are fairly new to the internet world. For the last year or so we have been quickly growing by offering those long standing values that have allowed us to succeed for the last 80+ years. Consistent quality backed up by superior customer service... and on the internet, a clear and easy to use web page offering GREAT prices.
Since we have always offered our wholesale prices only to dealerships and jobber stores in the past, local garages and the general public are just catching on. We love ALL of our customers, but I think you will find a little extra willingness to help out with some of our newest on the site. We have built a first class team of automotive parts experts, and they are all here and waiting to jump in and help wherever they are needed. Please e-mail or call us if you have any questions. That is why we are here and YOU are who we want to help!!

What's on the Radio?
I had to laugh when I saw this photo. Do you remember when the AM car radio was high tech? It was a cherished addition to vehicles that allowed entertainment while actually rolling down the road... imagine! Then came FM and 8 track. My step father actually had a 45 turntable installed in his early Pontiac Grand Prix, but that didn't work well unless parked somewhere. Cassettes... I was cleaning some boxes from the attic over Christmas and ran across a Sony Walkman Cassette player and remembered how proud I was to own it when it came out... and CD's are even old technology now.
So, what do you do for entertainment in your vehicle now? Do you have satellite radio? Do you Bluetooth Pandora from your IPhone? Do you have your entire music library on a tiny thumb drive and shuffle the songs by category? Now imagine a few years from now when we will look back with condescension, and a little fondness, on what we think is high tech today. Maybe music won't even be the thing... maybe we will be able to stream feelings or memories (even from someone else) through the internet cloud... maybe there won't even be cars?
Future Cars?

Avoid the Wrecker
I was reading an automotive service blog the other day and a statement jumped off the page at me... "...while the automotive industry as a whole spends millions of dollars a year trying to explain to consumers that preventive maintenance will save them big money over the lifetime of their vehicle, it has become obvious we are failing miserably with that message." The reason it struck me is that we are probably part of that problem, as well as part of the solution.
With the price of replacement parts at Autopartstomorrow.com as low as they are, we really help people out when they find themselves in emergency "broken down" situations. However, all of our prices are low, and many people have begun adding wiper blades, oil filters, spark plugs, etc. to their orders.
While saving over $100 on a fuel sending unit or ABS Module is a great thing, we would prefer to assist you in keeping your car up and running with the maintenance items as well. Either way, saving money on maintaining your vehicle is our job. Please let us know how we can help...

Personal Development
At first you may not think that personal development has anything to do with #Autoparts. You are probably right. What we try to focus on however, as we look for things to share, is that our "customers are people". Once we realize that our customers are people, and our job is to help them the best we can, the topics that can be shared open up quite a bit. The auto parts that we sell are an offshoot of our goal to be as helpful as possible when someone is having problems with their car. Beyond that is that with today's economy what things cost must be considered. So we sell our parts at or below wholesale to get people back on the road and working towards taking care of whatever their life needs them to be doing at the moment (not broken down, stranded and frustrated).
So, back to the topic of the day. Just like maintaining your vehicle helps keep actual repairs to a minimum, maintaining your mind and body will keep your well being on track. I have found a resource that shares many other sites that will help us along that path. www.lifehack.org/articles/lifestyle/22-killer-personal-development-resources.html/ Most of the time we know what we should do, just don't really know how to begin. These resources should offer something for everyone. Now, it is just up to you to take up these tools and build something! Good Luck!!
