The New Tomcars- Atv Delight

Introducing the latest craze in off road ATVs- the Tomcar®. The illegitimate child of a fully armored army Humvee and a golf cart, the Tomcar® is one step closer to the ultimate off road machine.

The Tomcar® was originally designed as an Israeli army vehicle. The goal was to create a small, mobile, fast and tough off road vehicle for troops to take across the brutal desert landscapes of the middle east. Pioneered as a mix between a small individual ATV and a Hummer, the outcome is something that has a wide wheel base, low center of gravity, great ground clearance and great speed.

Some of the standard Tomcar® specifications include:

� 79� wheel base

� 12� ground clearance

� 111� x 65� x 64� dimensions

â?¢ 1180 lbs Dry weight

â?¢ 725 cc, 4 stroke engine

â?¢ Automatic transmission

â?¢ Double wishbone front suspension, trail arm heavy-duty rear

â?¢ Hydraulic shocks

â?¢ 4 hydraulic drum brakes

Tomcars® are used now in military, commercial and recreational environments. Tomcar.com is the official reseller site with vehicle information, specs and pictures. Recreational use is proving to be an extremely popular rendition for off road tours and trips. Places such as Moab, UT, where off road trails and tours are legendary, are ideal environments for the vehicles. Rocks, dirt, sand and mountains are the Tomcarâ??s® specialty.

One such user of the Tomcar is the Moab Adventure Center in Moab, Utah. They have been using Tomcars® since they were first introduced to the U.S. many years ago. The Moab Adventure Center uses these unique vehicles for a fun-filled off road tours where customers can drive the cars and experience the thrill themselves. The off road adventure takes customers through loose sand and dirt trails, over course red rock bluffs, around cliff edges and through the dry desert landscape.

Although popularity is catching on, the reviews for this vehicle are still mixed. True, the Tomcar® provides a fun, unique and exciting experience, but it is not without flaws. The design and functionality still reside in the Israeli manufacturing. Support, maintenance and upkeep can be a little bothersome, especially original units only supported by Israeli parts. The newer models have become slightly more reliable, and are distributed in Arizona, California and Canada. Steering is not as nimble as the U.S. dune buggy or golf cart (understandably), so it takes a little getting used to.

Overall, the Tomcar® would be ideal for recreational uses as something that provides a unique and exciting experience.

What Network Marketers Can Learn From GM and Toyota

Keeping up with current trends in network marketing can seem like a full time job, but itâ??s easy to get left behind doing things the â??old wayâ? and wonder why you arenâ??t getting returns on your marketing efforts. Hereâ??s why GMâ??s bankruptcy is a case-in-point for anyone who wants to increase their productivity as a network marketer.

If youâ??ve gotten the history on GMâ??s bankruptcy, there is a recurring theme. Many authorities on the car industry have said they were surprised that GM hadn’t failed sooner! The inevitable had finally come to pass.

With its top-heavy board of directors and a long history of poor business decisions (like buying the Hummer manufacturer) GM was at odds with the real needs of car owners. For decades, GM chose to ignore competitors like Toyota, and bet on its “All American” reputation to beat out the foreign car maker, even though Toyotaâ??s cars offer consumer advantages like gas efficiency, smaller, low maintenance vehicles, and better designs.

(As a network marketer itâ??s a good idea to ask your self â??Do I offer my prospects what they want, and do I meet the real demands of my audience?â? If not, donâ??t be surprised when no one responds!)

GM teamed up with Toyota, briefly, in hopes of â??stealingâ? the production secrets that have made it such a successful company. GM wanted to get a “quick fix” from Toyotaâ??s manufacturing methods by copying “robots” that they imagined were used to put together car bodies with minimal human effort, thereby reducing overhead and increasing production.  GM was looking for easy returns without a lot of effort.

(And what about the average network marketer? Isnâ??t there resentment from those who donâ??t get â??instantâ? results from their nifty corporate websites?  The truth is, it requires more than that to get your business seen by the right people and hereâ??s whyJ

What GM found instead, is that Toyota employs an intense level of review and evaluation that produces continual change in design and production management. Their fluid approach allows them to meet the challenges of new consumer demands and to maintain a constant flow of communication between design, production and sales outcomes. (Marketing!) Unsuccessful models are either changed or removed, and better performing models are promoted successfully.

GM failed to learn the real business lesson that Toyotaâ??s management offered them because they were looking for a “quick fix.” To make the evaluative changes required to improve GMâ??s returns, it would have required changing it’s entire structure and retooling all of its manufacturing plants. That’s why GM never caught up with Toyota. You can’t run with the pack when you have both feet cemented in the past.

“Old School” boardroom thinking is what killed GM. In this rapidly changing world, the inability to adopt more efficient and effective ways of doing business is the kiss of death. The â??quick fix” that GM hoped to find is the equivalent of the automated, “Get rich quick” schemes that people look for on the Internet. There simply is no such thing, and if you buy into this concept, beware.

Toyota teaches a great lesson in how to build a business that brings home the bacon. In the home business industry there are very few companies that combine great marketing and evaluative methods with excellent products. Take a lesson from GMâ??s mistakes and use them to become the next â??Toyotaâ? of the home business industry.

Death of Pontiac – GM ‘Shuts Down’ the Original Muscle Car Brand

General Motors will ‘Shut Down’ the ‘excitement division’ – Pontiac – by the end of 2010. Their decision to cut the long time muscle car brand was among several aggressive steps listed in a recently updated survival plan to the federal government. This leaves GM with four core brands to place their focus: Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac. Have we regressed to the beginning of the 20th century?

The fate of Saturn, Saab, and Hummer are still to be decided. At this time it appears they will either be sold or also shut down.

Pontiac sold twice as many as Buick which is currently set to survive the federal shakeup.

These cars were originally designed with wider bodies and pushed out wheels. This ‘wide track’ design made the cars look agile and aggressive – and remained with the brand up until modern times.

“There was a time, a long way back now, when you knew exactly what Pontiac stood for,” said Kevin Smith, editorial director for the automotive Web site Edmunds.com.

Recent efforts from vice chairman Bob Lutz tried to revive Pontiac’s image. His plans called for Pontiac to produce mainly rear-drive ‘modernized’ muscle cars – such as the 2004 GTO or the rwd G8 sedan.

The australian based GTO and G8 had only dismal sales. Bob’s plans were further crushed when gas prices soared and the EPA further tightened their grip on consumer transportation with tougher fuel economy regulations.

Pontiac’s lack of providing true value as a brand may finally have brought its demise, said Smith. “That’s just death in a marketplace where there’s so much competition and so much quality,” he said.

Not even Knight Rider?s bird can compare to the 73 TA. This is the American muscle car dream!

Of the less than 5,000 that were built, the 455 SD (Super Duty) with a 4-speed manual transmission is one of the rarest birds out there with only 72 produced.

According to Pontiac?s specs, the 455 SD in a 4-speed manual tranny produced 290 horsepower at 4,000 RPM and 395 Lbs/Ft torque at 3,600 RPM.

Until this event, almost no one in America cared about their energy consumption. In 1973, gas prices shot up by several hundred percent followed by the worst recession since the great depression. Suddenly, 30-40 cents per gallon looked cheap compared to the 70+ cents it was heading to.

Saab Finds A Buyer, Finally!

The deal would be a coup for Spyker and sustenance for Saab which has almost 3500 workers in Sweden. The small Dutch auto group, which makes high end sports cars, completed the negotiations to give a fresh lease of life to an otherwise defunct brand. Spyker has sealed the bid with a US$400 million offer including US$74 million cash and stocks for the rest of the amount.

Spyker’s history traces back to early 1900s when it started making motorcar and coaches. The company resurrected in 2000 making niche sports cars after being liquidated in 1920s.

The Swedish automotive brand wasn’t fitting in the survival strategy of government bailed out General Motors which plans to focus on four brands including Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC and Buick. The sale rakes in US$400 million for the North American OEM as the company was planning to close the operations for Saab otherwise. General Motors has similar plans for other loss making brands such as Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn.

Skeptics are calling Spyker’s move an audacious attempt to acquire Saab and they have good reasons to believe so. Although Saab remains a strong brand in certain geographies, it is hardly profitable with eight long years of losing money behind it. Furthermore, the acquisition marks a marriage of Spyker, making 43 handmade cars with Saab that rolled off 93,000 cars in 2008. Spyker employs around 100 workers while Saab has 3,400 workers. What’s strikingly audacious about the deal is that Spyker, being a marginal player in the auto industry, is dependent on external funding for the acquisition. Spyker, whose market value is less than US$85 million, will have to take on a lot of debt to pull off the acquisition and subsequent integration of Saab.

However, Swedish Government is at present appraising and reviewing the transaction and the concerned requests for guarantees of a Saab automobile credit that has been requested from the European Investment Bank. It is further added that Saab seeks to borrow €400 million. Presuming nippy action, the transaction is likely to be completed by mid February.

It is still unclear how Spyker will benefit from the Saab buyout given that the sales are dwindling fast for the Swedish brand. General Motors has already sold some of the Saab tooling and machinery to Chinese automaker BAIC. All Spyker gains from the transaction is the technology behind 9-5 sedan, Saab’s first new product introduction in last seven years. Saab’s existing distribution network will be of use for Spyker only if it plans to continue the Swedish brand in its current form.
