Frightening Car Experience I’ve never felt so close to death since that night. It was the longest seconds of my driving experience. This short story occurred in my homeland‚ Kozu island near Tokyo‚ Japan‚ where I have spent most of the time of my life. This is a very beautiful and splendid island.

Used Car vs. New Car Some people are fortunate enough for their first car to be a brand new car‚ no matter what make and model it is. Most likely‚ your first car is a used one.
