The North American International Auto Show is a site to be seen around the country, but in the Detroit area it is a chance for the millions of local auto workers that live here to see what they may be producing and take pride in their company's name. Every year in January, the Cobo Center hosts the Detroit version of the Auto show and every year well over a half million people make the trip to the venue to take in the glory. This is a show for everyone, even the little ones. This years event took place from January 19 thru January 27th. It was a week of beauty, style, and concept. If you are a people watcher there is something here for you. If you are a car aficionado this is your dream, and if you are just looking for your next vehicle this is the place to start. The world has changed a lot. Most people don't know the names of all the cars on the market. Two cars in a family is common. People are busy and don't want to take the time to shop for that perfect car. Families with kids want SUV's. Everyone wants energy efficiency. Instead of asking how much horse power, people are asking how many miles per gallon.

If you are one of those hard-working people who like to drive in style in their trucks, then here is one just for you. Previously the GMC Sierra Denali was only available as a luxury light duty pick-up. That has now changed with the Heavy Duty line slated for 2011. It features a four-bar chrome perforated grille and ride on an all new chassis. There will be chrome accents on the doors and door handles. Inside will have a Bose audio system, power-adjustable pedals, 12-way power seats and brushed aluminum trim. This is the first time the luxurious Denali trim will be offered on one of GMC's toughest trucks. http://www.wikihow.com/Diagnose-a-Loss-of-Spark-in-Your-Car-Engine Skip: "Not sure, --maybe a skunk, dead frogs, the water smells sometimes; maybe shit, who knows up here, could be a combination ... let's shut our windows." As another mile goes by it starts to get a little foggy looking out the window, shadows seem to be everywhere. In 1970 my husband bought a Dodge R/T for $5000. The price of the car was usually a bit less, but this particular car had all the bells and whistles needed to be a true Muscle Car. If kept in mint condition this car would now be worth approximately $50,000. He was young and foolish though; blew up the engine, and just trashed the car. To this day, the thought of his youthful waste makes him kind of sick. My mother and father enjoyed much of their leisure time with drive in movies, watching TV shows such as MASH, All in the Family, Dukes of Hazard, and Andy Griffith. They enjoyed the music of Merle Haggard, Freddy Hart and Conway Twitty. Lastly, they enjoyed fast cars as well as many people did in the seventies. Drag racing was a fun event for both my mother and my father. In the seventies my father owned a 1972 Ford Galaxy 500, 1970 Road Runner, 1973 Ranchero, and a 1976 buy truck denver. The cost of a new vehicle was around $6000. Over all, the most rememberable event for my mother in the seventies was in 1977 when Elvis Presley died. If you've made it this far, you're a few steps away from $3,500 or $4,500 and a new, more environmentally-friendly car.
