New 2014 Nissan Cube

At the circus, the main attraction isn’t to the acrobatic acts, the tigers, the lions or the elephants dancing on a beach ball. The main act comes into light when that tiny red car appears in the middle of the arena and one by one, from every door, 30 clowns start coming out of that one vehicle. One cannot help but wonder how do they do it?!

Here at your Nissan dealer in Dayton, OH, we want to inform you of it all. Have you ever seen the New 2014 Nissan Cube? That’s how. Read the rest of this entry >>

Things to do on a road trip with kids

A family road trip is a great summer activity. We think road trips are a fun way to see many sights throughout the United States, less expensive than flying, and a wonderful family bonding opportunity. Before you go on your road trip, make sure your car is up to date at our service department.

You may be hesitant to take a road trip because of the time commitment and possibility of the kids becoming bored and antsy. You won’t have to worry about this behavior if you know a few simple games that will keep the kids occupied and stimulated. While electronics may keep the kids quiet for a while, we believe that games that make kids look out the windows are more fun and educate the whole family on each area you drive through.

Some things to do on a road trip with kids are games such as the alphabet game. The goal of this game is to find words that start with each letter of the alphabet in order. Whoever gets to Z first is the winner. This is a great game to play individually or in teams.

Road at night

Solar roads, won’t you?

The internet is a buzz of late with the concept of solar road ways. An Indiegogo page, a website used to jump start projects with crowd-funding, set a goal of $1 million, which the Solar Roadways project has already surpassed. Started by a couple in Idaho, the project seeks to replace the roads, highway, sidewalks, driveways, and parking lots with hexagon shaped solar panels. The panels would have a heavy duty glass cover over top LED lights and the solar panels themselves. The single panels could be removed and replaced without disturbing the rest of the road, making fixing issues quick and efficient. They also are programmed to radiate heat at just above freezing, meaning that snow and ice wouldn’t be able to find purchase, making slick roads a thing of the past.

2014 Nissan Versa Note Dayton OH

The 2014 Nissan Versa Note in Dayton, OH is above all, a car that serves a function. It is exactly what it is sold as, a small capable car that will get the customer from one place to another with several other people and also some cargo if so they choose. The Versa Note is a small hatchback version of the 2014 Nissan Versa sedan. And with not a lot of flare or over styling, this utilitarian vehicle does what it was designed to do. Move things cheaply.

The Future is now

Or at least it’s looking like it’s starting today. And sure, some other cars have gotten the ball rolling, but Google has taken the first real step towards automated driving. Past attempts have been normal cars that have been modified to drive themselves, and though they have worked admirably, it is time for the tech giant to flex its IT muscle and show how it’s done. Google has unveiled the first completely automated vehicle built solely to be completely automated. From the ground up, this nameless prototype has no steering wheel. It has no brake pedal, nor does it have an acceleration pedal. Read the rest of this entry >>

2014 Nissan GT-R Dayton OH

When Nissan released the GT-R, it was a screaming monster. And the 2015 Nissan GT-R in Dayton, OH is no different…except for the addition of a new Nissan Nismo edition, which makes a screaming monster into a screaming feral monster. The GT-R is a beast of a sports car and the new model year fine tunes the beast to make the wild ride a little more comfortable without sacrificing anything that made it great. It also actively made an attempt to make the interior quieter, which, depending on who is asked, isn’t necessarily a good thing, but it does make for an “easier on the ears” drive.
