I Believe

I know what we will be doing today at noon! Hopefully, you can join us to cheer on your team!

USA faces Germany in the 2014 World Cup. It is a big game for the USA team and will be a tough one. According to CBS, midfielder Jermaine Jones states, "We have to come out, we have to show maybe that kind of face, the heart that we have, and we're not scared." (Source)

To get in the spirit, be sure to visit the Hyundai website -- who is a PROUD sponser of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil!! Here, you can check out the 2015 Hyundai Sonata, connect with fellow fútbol fans, and get a free Hyundai Because Fútbol team clings!!

Keep your dog's tail wagging on your summer road trip with these 5 awesome tips!

1. You should bring your own water from home.  Dogs have sensitive stomachs and water from unfamiliar places can easily cause an upset tummy for your pup.

2. Plan ahead for any medication your pooch might need while you’re traveling.  If you are able to pack extras, do so.

3. It’s always smart to bring a blanket that smells like home– people aren’t the only ones who get homesick!

4. Get your dog used to being on the road by taking him on a few short drives in the days approaching the big trip.

5. Make sure he’s micro-chipped.  Hit the road with the peace of mind that if the worst does happen, you won’t be caught unprepared.

You already know this, but we must remind you: NEVER leave your dog in your car unattended.  This is especially important during the sizzling months of summer.

Why Lease?

Leasing a car is just an alternative way of buying a car! Here are some advantages:

• Generally lower monthly payments
• You can drive a better car for less money.
• Lower repair costs because you are always under the vehicle's included factory warranty.
• You can easily transition to a new car every few years.
• There are no trade-in hassles at the end of the lease.

This is just one of many lease specials going on right now. Come by Sport Durst Automotive to get into the car you have always wanted, for less!! Also, visit our website for more lease options on Hyundai, Dodge, Mazda, Jeep, Chrysler and even pre-loved vehicles! www.sportdurst.com

 

 

 

 

Fatal Distraction

With hot weather here, our cars get pretty toasty when left out in the sun for a while.

A little PSA: check your backseat before you get out and do not leave your animal in the car! "Who leaves their child/pet in the car?" is what a lot of you are probably thinking right now. The answer is, YOU! Yes, anyone can make this horrific mistake.

Below are snipits from an article from the Huffington Post that we found to be interesting and informative while giving each and every one of us a reminder.

What kind of parent forgets their baby in a hot car? 

I ask that question every year at this time, as temperatures rise and the number of children who die grisly deaths -- literally baking in the backseat -- also start to climb.... On average, 37 children die in this way in the US when the weather gets warm.

What kind of parent forgets their baby? A monster, right? A callous, careless, stupid, irresponsible human being who should never have been trusted with a child in the first place, yes?
No. Which is why I keep asking this question. 

The parents who accidentally leave their children to die could be any of us. That was the message of  one in a Washington Post by Gene Weingarten four years ago (it later won him a Pulitzer Prize.) Dissecting a number of tragedies he persuasively argues that those who lose children this way could be you or me. He writes:

What kind of person forgets a baby? The wealthy do, it turns out. And the poor, and the middle class. Parents of all ages and ethnicities do it. Mothers are just as likely to do it as fathers. It happens to the chronically absent-minded and to the fanatically organized, to the college-educated and to the marginally literate. In the last 10 years, it has happened to a dentist. A postal clerk. A social worker. A police officer. An accountant. A soldier. A paralegal. An electrician. A Protestant clergyman. A rabbinical student. A nurse. A construction worker. An assistant principal. It happened to a mental health counselor, a college professor and a pizza chef. It happened to a pediatrician. It happened to a rocket scientist.

It was during the '90s that laws began requiring children ride in car seats, in the back seat, where they were safer, yes, but also less likely to be seen and therefore more easily forgotten. Add to that a parent who, in nearly every case, changes the usual daily routines and simply forgets that he or she didn’t already drop the baby at the sitter’s on the way to work. Think that could never happen to you? Read Weingarten’s enitre article here. Then come back and tell me you are still completely sure. Think that parents who do this should be tried for manslaughter and sent to jail? Read of how these families punish themselves, and come back and tell me if you still feel the same way.

So what to do, systematically, to lessen the chances of such simple but fatal errors? Kids and Cars sums up their suggestions with the acronym BE SAFE:

Back seat: Put something in the back seat whenever you strap a child in, so you have to open the back door, or at least turn around to find that item, when you get out of the car. Your handbag or briefcase, cellphone or employee badge. Every child should be correctly restrained in the back seat.
Stuffed animal: Keep a brightly colored one in the car seat when your child isn’t there. Then move it from the car seat to the front seat after you strap your child in, to remind you when your baby is in the back seat.
Ask your baby sitter or child-care provider to call you within 10 minutes if your child hasn't arrived on time.
Focus on driving: Avoid cellphone calls and text-messaging while driving.
Every time you park your vehicle -- every single time -- open the back door to make sure no one has been left behind.

Hyundai WIns Again!

Over the past few years, Hyundai has really stepped their game up and have made their cars one of a kind. Not only are they easy on the eyes, they have great gas mileage, cutting edge features and they drive oh so smooth. In fact, the Hyundai Tucson was recently recognized by the AutoPacific Vehicle Satisfaction Awards!

The 2014 Hyundai Tucson topped the Compact Crossover SUV category in the 2014 AutoPacific Vehicle Satisfaction Awards (VSA). AutoPacific's VSA measures how satisfied an owner is with his/her new vehicle.

AutoPacific's VSAs objectively measure owner satisfaction with 50 separate attributes ranging from interior comfort and convenience to fuel economy and performance. This study by the Southern California-based automotive research firm summarizes the results of responses from over 92,000 new vehicle owners.

"The Hyundai Tucson won a decisive victory over tough competition in one of the fastest growing categories in the industry," said George Peterson, President, AutoPacfic. "Tucson won based on its all-around product excellence, distinctive style, good fuel economy, Hyundai's long warranty and persuasive pricing." 

The Hyundai Tucson, known for its combination of style and function, added advanced 2.0-liter Nu and 2.4-liter Theta II Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engines for 2014. Tucson's new GDI engines are complemented with all-new standard SACHS Amplitude Selective Damping (ASD) for optimum ride, handling and driving comfort. 2014 Tucson also offers Hyundai's Blue Link safety, service and infotainment telematics system, two-stage reclining rear seats and third-generation navigation with a larger seven-inch touchscreen display and HD Radio technology.

"The AutoPacific Vehicle Satisfaction Awards are an important indicator that Hyundai is continuing to hit the mark when it comes to pleasing consumers," said Scott Margason, director, Product Planning, Hyundai Motor America. "We are pleased that Tucson owners rank their purchase decisions so highly – an excellent reflection on Hyundai's class-leading CUV."
