Ferrari FF


The Ferrari FF (FF meaning "Ferrari Four", for four seats and four-wheel drive) is a grand tourer revealed by Ferrari on January 21, 2011. The official presentation was made on March 1, 2011 in Geneva Motor Show. It is unusual on two points: it is Ferrari's first production four-wheel drive model, and Ferrari's first production shooting-brake. It will replace the 612 Scaglietti. The FF has top speed of 335 km/h (208 mph) and it accelerates from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.7 seconds. The elements within its name, FF, clearly show that Ferrari intends this car to be much more usable than either its predecessor, the 612, or its stablemates: its four-wheel drive system will allow the car to be driven in relatively hazardous driving scenarios, such as heavy rain or snow, while its four seats, coupled with the vastly expanded boot space courtesy of the shooting brake design, make it much more practical.

Necessity of car shipping transportation

Lot of times in our lives we have come across moving and settling in newer places. The process of shifting is a complicated one and it involves lot of planning and focus. In fact people plan ahead of months for shifting houses or offices. Larger the property to be shifted, involves more overhead on planning process. Finding a newer place is primarily the biggest concern. However it all starts with the location. But that is just a small factor influencing our troubles of life. The following issues are when is the right time to move, how to go ahead with the moving, what are the things to be sold or left behind, what are newer things to be purchased to make our dream house come true etc. If you have a heavy vehicle or car, transporting it is one of the biggest concerns. Cars are huge properties and they impose very high responsibilities upon us, smallest of jerks can impose heavy damage on these properties. It has to be handled with at most care. These problems become bigger if we are locating to a newer state or country itself as the distance increases when compared to normal circumstances.

Car Transport companies understands these issues when it comes to shifting. The objective of these companies and the biggest factor that gives them business is to shift these heavy vehicles with high quality service and attain customer satisfaction. They understand the importance of moving these vehicles. For them to attain profits and get reputed, it is important for customers to believe in them and be confident about the protection and care when they fix up a deal. Thus they provide good price deals, assure commitment, and values customer satisfaction for all levels, both for individuals as well as corporate.

Auto transport companies must have a public liability, load assurance, care for possessions, and abide by the laws of state government as well as transport department. In order to be successful, the company needs to be well equipped and provide complete guidance and transport assistance. Their reputation increases with the quality of service they provide and in the end it is all about which company provides the best service amidst all competitors stands out best.

These are the background factors contributing to the company's success. However, in reality, when it comes to service providing, it is the actual driver who needs to perform and represent the company. He has to be highly qualified for the job; he should be an expert in terms of driving and aware of all possible routes to every destination. He should be licensed by the government to drive. He should always have his paperwork while doing his job. The companies are in a way responsible for training these drivers to be an expert as these people act at the front end portion of the job and they carry the face of the company.

As for us, we have so much to worry about and there are experts to help us when it comes to transporting our properties. So our only responsibility in this matter is to seek for the right company.

Ford GT


The Ford GT began as a concept car designed in anticipation of the automaker's centennial year and as part of its drive to showcase and revive its "heritage" names such as Mustang and Thunderbird. At the 1995 Detroit Auto Show, the Ford GT90 concept was shown. At the 2002 auto show, Ford unveiled a new GT40 Concept car. Camilo Pardo, the head of Ford's "Living Legends" studio, is credited as the chief designer of the GT and worked under the guidance of J Mays.

The GT is similar in outward appearance to the original Ford GT40 cars, but bigger, wider, and 3 in (76 mm) taller than the original 40 in (100 cm); as a result, a potential name for the car was the GT43. Although the cars are visually related, structurally, there is no similarity between the modern GT and the 1960s GT40 that inspired it. Three production prototype cars were shown in 2003 as part of Ford's centenary, and delivery of the production Ford GT began in the fall of 2004.
