The Best Value on the Road: 2015 Nissan Versa Sedan

Review of the 2015 Nissan Versa sedan

A lot of people are excited about Nissan’s new line up of vehicles for the 2015 model year. One car that people have been especially excited about is the 2015 Versa sedan. This little car is packed with a lot of big new features that has everybody from our staff and the community talking. However, the features aren’t what have everyone is so excited about, it’s the price, because the Versa sedan is one of the lowest priced new compact cars on the market. We decided to do a review of the 2015 Nissan Versa sedan to show everyone why we think it is such a great new car. Read the rest of this entry >>

Fire in the Hole! Keep it under control

Bonfire Safety

Ohio is full of beautiful summer nights that you can spend camping, at a festival, or just outside in your backyard. And what’s better than a bonfire when you are spending these beautiful Dayton nights in the beautiful outdoors. While bonfires are fun and relaxing, they can easily get out of control and put others around you and your surrounding in danger. Here are some things to remember before enjoying your s’mores.

The first tip we have is make sure that you are far away from any cars. Sparks can easily land on the tires without you noticing. These sparks may not cause a large fire, but they can burn small holes in your tires that can lead to major damage causing danger to the driver and cars around the damaged tire.

2014 Nissan Cube side view

The Cubic Tragedy

Nissan Cube near Dayton OH

Good people of Dayton, the day has come where we must say good-bye to one of our own. We all know and love Nissan Cube near Dayton OH, but as all new 2015 Nissan models are being introduced, the Cube is being discontinued throughout Canada and the United States in 2015.

In this case, the Cube’s finest asset might have been its main downfall. The square shape is cute and fun, but just is not what most drivers are looking for a car right now. Is it a sedan or van? That’s a good question. Since 2010, the Cube’s sales have been decreasing. Four years ago, Nissan sold almost 23,000 Cubes, but so far in 2014, less than 3,000 have been sold.
