  3. Let’s look at the Porsche Cayenne This car is my dream car for many reasons. First and most obvious is that its extremely attractive, the Porsche is also a German made vehicle and I feel that they make great strong, safe, and long lasting cars that are fun to drive.

  4. Safety Features of the Porsche Cayenne The safety rating of the Porsche Cayenne is 4.7 out of 5. Below are some of the important safety features this car has: • Anti-lock braking system (ABS) • brake assist (BA) • Automatic brake differential (ABD) • Porsche stability management (PSM) • Anti-slip regulation (ASR) • Bumper safety system –(2) cross-members, (2) crush zones • Dual front airbags w/passenger sensor • Front/rear side-impact airbags • Front/rear side curtain airbags • 3-point seat belts -outboard seating pre-tensioners, front seat force-limiters ISOFIX child seat anchor prep- all passenger seating • Tire pressure monitoring system

  5. Technology and Entertainment Features of the Porsche Cayenne The Porsche Cayenne is a car equipped with lots of great technology and entertainment. Listed below are some of its features. Bose Surround Sound system Bluetooth hands-free phone interface AUX-in USB port XM Satellite Radio Porsche Communication Management with navigation module Adaptive Sport Seats with memory package These features are important to me because they make spending a lot of time in my car, which I do, accessible. I can not only play my iPod through the AUX but I can plug my charger in through the USB port. The Navigation module is great to have in the car, I never need to remember directions. This car is fully loaded with everything someone who drives a lot needs.

  6. Specifications of the Porsche Cayenne The Porsche Cayenne offers many different specifications when picking out your perfect car. You can have both an automatic or manual transmission, as well as a V-6 or V-8 engine. The basic Porsche Cayenne has 300 horsepower where the two other models offer both 400 or 500 horsepower. However, all models have a maximum cargo capacity of 62.9 cu. Ft. One thing I found interesting about the specifications of this car was that each models whole weight was different, ranging from 6,096 lbs. to 6,349 lbs.; that’s one heavy car!

  7. City vs. Highway Miles Per Gallon of the Porsche Cayenne City MPG: 16 Highway MPG: 22 Average price per gallon of gas: $3.67 Average miles per week I drive: 200 Total weekly gas bill: $45.88

  8. Now let’s look at the Chevy Silverado A truck has always been my dream car, and I picked the Chevy because its an American made vehicle, its big but not too big, and most of all I love the way it looks! My neighbor has one, which I love driving in and hope to one day get one myself.

  9. Safety Features of the Chevy Silverado The safety rating of the Chevy Silverado is 4.6 out of 5 stars.

Knowing that I can always be warned of the weather through NavWeather, have the rear view camera for reversing, can plug in my iPod or cell phone through the USB port, and can even pause live radio for a phone call or what not truly makes me feel safe and prepared for any obstacles I may come across!
