"We are overstocked and that is our problem, but it can be good for you as prices have never been lower" says the nice man in the television ad. Or " It is Tax time and we have to get rid of 100 cars this week before the tax man comes." The perils of purchasing a car are discussed in this short narrative, which is dedicated to the American Auto Sales Industry. Cars should be labeled like cigarette packages as being harmful to your health. People fear the task of buying a car, much the same as giving a speech in public. It ranks with fear of Death. Yet like the lemming that continually march to the sea, people continually march to the lot and are the gluttons for the product. The ordeal is sometimes traumatic but never dull. The advertising, the sales gimmicks and chicanery of the auto business are reveled in this humorous anecdotal account of "Car Man." The fantasies and greed of the owners to the avarice of the sales managers are exposed to the naked eye. Reading is believing, times change, models change, years go by but car man's tactics remain constant. The inner life of the "Car Man" is exposed in a humorous tongue in cheek approach. The author attempts through personal knowledge to tell the public of the inner workings of the auto sales business. The life and times of "CAR MAN." His methods, his lifestyle, his basic motivations are laid bare to the public in this expose. Beginning with the history of the automobile and its influence on the lifestyles of the southwest in the early parts of the 20th century taking into account the daily boring grind of the auto salesperson to the final excitement of the closing. The endless cold and lonely hours out on the "LOT." Car man's environment. His social habits as well as his Sociopathy. Looking at the inner secrets of the auto dealership to include: "invoices" the most treasured artifact of the auto business. Documents that the CIA cannot see. Compared to this in-depth treatise the inner workings of the Masonic Lodge are general knowledge and mundane. Then taking the reader a step further so as to look at the futuristic marketing of "autofliers" the Buick or Oldsmobile of the future. Looking at artificially maintained atmospheres in biospheric domes. We will discover that in spite of adverse elements, CAR MAN will adapt and prevail.

Get the behind the scenes view of arguably the most iconic automotive movie car and scene in history. Ask any automotive enthusiast what his or her favorite chase scene to appear in a movie is, and the majority will respond with "Bullitt." It has made the top 5 in every list covering the best automotive chase scenes in history. But the appeal isn’t just about the chase scene. Shot entirely on location in picturesque San Francisco in 1968, the movie not only features the historic chase scene but also many outdoor scenes filled with cars and architecture of the period that are filmed in crisp clear color. The movie was the fifth-highest-grossing film for 1968, it was well received by critics, and the chase scene won Franks P. Keller an Oscar for editing. In Bullitt: The Cars and People Behind Steve McQueen, you will get the complete behind the scenes picture of how all the action was coordinated and filmed. Included are the ideas behind the making of the movie, an interview with Director Peter Yates, production stills, and the planning for the scene. Also covered is the cast, the building of the cars used in the film, and the how and why the stunts were choreographed and filmed. To round out the story, an examination of what happened to the cars is included as well as coverage of the multiple Bullitt Edition cars released by Ford after the film, including the latest 2019 edition. While several books have been published about Steve McQueen, the "King of Cool," never before has there been a thorough examination of this specific film and these specific cars. This edition is a welcome addition to the library of any McQueen, Mustang, or automotive film history fan.

Rockin Down The Highway written by Paul Grushkin and has been published by Voyageur Press (MN) this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2006 with Music categories.
"In this absolutely unprecedented and beautifully produced coffee-table volume, best-selling music writer Paul Grushkin draws on top museum collections and private archives, renowned photographers, lauded poster artists, and record labels to illustrate the remarkable 70-year synergy between music and motoring. The narrative comprises scores of first-person interviews with prominent figures and explores common themes that have been addressed in vehicle-related songs - as symbols of freedom, vehicles as status symbols, as courting tools, as utilitarian work conveyances, as metaphors (when Reverend Horton Heat sings about his "Big Red Rocket of Love," he's not just talking about his shoebox Ford), and vehicles simply as vehicles. Illustrated with images of musicians, bands, vehicles, album and poster art, and collectibles, the book draws direct lineages juxtaposing artists that may have previously seemed disparate. Also included are music's car-related lore and tragedies, like Gene Vincent's motorcycle accident that spurred his spiral into alcoholism; Hank Williams' death in the backseat of his Cadillac; the death of So-Cal punk icon D. Boon in a tour-van accident; and Neil Young connecting with Stephen Stills in L.A. because the latter saw the former's Ontario plates in a traffic jam. In the end, Wheels is the expansive sort of book that everyone from the most casual music fan to the most hardcore musicologist will find difficult to put down."--Provided by the publisher.

In Curbing Traffic: The Human Case for Fewer Cars in Our Lives, mobility experts Melissa and Chris Bruntlett chronicle their experience living in the Netherlands and the benefits that result from treating cars as visitors rather than owners of the road. They weave their personal story with research and interviews with experts and Delft locals to help readers share the experience of living in a city designed for people. Their insights will help decision makers and advocates to better understand and communicate the human impacts of low-car cities: lower anxiety and stress, increased independence, social autonomy, inclusion, and improved mental and physical wellbeing. Curbing Traffic provides relatable, emotional, and personal reasons why it matters and inspiration for exporting the low-car city.

It has long been accepted that the social and cultural meanings of the car far exceed the practical need for mobility. This book marks the first attempt to contribute to road safety, considering, in depth, these meanings and the cultures of driving that are shaped by them. In the Company of Cars examines the perspectives that young people have on cars, and explores the broader social and cultural meanings of the car, the potential it is supposed to fulfil, and the anticipated benefits it offers to young drivers. From focus-group research conducted in Australia, the book takes up the views of young people on a range of topics, from media to car use to gender performance. The author looks at the ways in which driving has been defined by articulations of the car that emphasize valued features of the car-driver, such as gender, youthfulness, status, age, power, raciness, sexiness, ruggedness and competitiveness. The book takes a global perspective on mobility, considering the impact of cars and road safety policy on quality of life, and the value and significance of other modes of travel, in a range of countries.
