Unlock the keys to protect and prevent home and car from robbery. No one thinks it will ever happen to them: robbery. Most people say that they will never be robbed because they live in a good neighborhood or a decent town. They may think that always locking their doors or cars will prevent them from being a victim. The truth, however, is that over 10% of the population is a victim of home burglary or car theft every year!

Your Vehicle Is an Extension of You! is an all-encompassing book that addresses the philosophy of proactive auto care and how our vehicles reflect how we see and the strategies we employ to improve ourselves. As long as we improve ourselves, we improve our families and communities. We improve driving and motor safety overall. We also connect with our children in a fashion that is applicable far beyond simply keeping the vehicle clean; this is addressed in tools noted in the book....

There is a certain cultural affiliation with living on the road that appeals to many Americans and Australians. Whether it is the amount of open spaces upon which to travel in these countries or the wanderlust of spirit, but RV living in the United States and Australia have become exceedingly popular. The problem is that RVs are not inexpensive and while however appealing it is to consider a life on the open road, spending upwards of $80,000 is not an option for most.

The first question it covers is if the RV lifestyle is one you choose for you and your significant other. Many elements must be considered before you sign on the dotted line and begin your journey with a shiny new home on wheels. You will discover several checklists for "first-timers," so the transition will not be so difficult. You can use items from your home to get started. Consideration must be given as to how to store your belongings, as well as what and how much to carry in your RV.

Uber is one of the most fascinating and controversial businesses in the world, both beloved for its elegant ride-hailing concept and heady growth, and condemned for CEO Travis Kalanick's ruthless pursuit of success at all cost. In Wild Ride, Adam Lashinsky, veteran Fortune writer and author of Inside Apple, traces the story of Uber's meteoric rise: from its murky origins to its plans for expansion into radically different industries.

The Highway Code is essential listening for all road users in England, Scotland, and Wales, providing all the latest rules of the road and traffic signs. All road users have a responsibility to keep their knowledge up to date. This new edition incorporates new rules on responsibilities toward more vulnerable road users; mobile phones, with tighter restrictions on the use of mobile phones whilst driving; junctions, where you should give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross the road you're turning onto; and parking on pavements.

There is a raft of poorly researched books out there that fail to convey their meaning and just confuse the listener even further. You are left wondering what was the point. No great secrets are revealed, instead only common knowledge is provided and in between that is simply pages of nonsensical filler.

I would define this book as a "Short-Cut" - a time saving process to getting success. It’s a pared down laser targeted means of getting your own Range Rover. Moreover, since the principles and practices are already tried and tested, they will not only work to obtain a car, but when applied correctly they have the capacity to change other aspects of your life as well.

More than any other technology, cars have transformed our culture. Cars have created vast wealth as well as novel dreams of freedom and mobility. They have transformed our sense of distance and made the world infinitely more available to our eyes and our imaginations. They have inspired cinema, music and literature; they have, by their need for roads, bridges, filling stations, huge factories and global supply chains, re-engineered the world.

Driving is a complex skill, teaching it arguably even more so. My aim with this book is to make both the driving and the teaching as enjoyable and simple as possible. This book's in two parts. The first is a crash (possibly not the best choice of word!) course in making you an effective driving instructor. The second part breaks down the 20 lessons every professional instructor takes their pupils through.

Driving is a complex skill. My aim with this book is to make learning that skill as enjoyable and simple as possible. This book will take you through the 20 lessons a professional instructor would teach you on your driving lessons. And it does it in simple everyday language, breaking down each stage, making it easy to understand and, if necessary, revise. Albert Einstein once said, "If you can't explain it simply, you don't know it well enough." I've been instructing, and writing about, driving for 30 years. I like to think I know it well enough to - as Albert says - keep it simple.

De 20ste eeuw is de eeuw van de massamotorisering. In 1913 begon de eerste massale serieproductie van auto’s in Amerika. Door een efficiënt productieproces lukte het de industrieel Henry Ford om de T-Ford relatief goedkoop op de markt te brengen en daarmee toegankelijk te maken voor de groeiende middenklasse. In Europa kwam de automobilisering van de samenleving pas op gang na 1960. Elk Europees industrieland leverde een eigen bijdrage.

Here is the story of a mechanically inclined farm boy who turned the automobile from a toy for the wealthy, into a necessity for modern life.

This biography approaches the story of Henry Ford in the context of his world. For example, roads were as much a factor for cars, as the car was for roads. The farmer would not risk his livelihood on a Ford internal combustion tractor until the engine proved itself in his Sunday car.

Stereoless in Seattle: Why I Tried to Unionize Car Stereo Installers and Failed takes a light-hearted look at the car stereo industry through the eyes of someone who lived it for the better part of 25 years.
