        Dutton Bratcher : Often, additional car insurance discounts are available by minimising non-essential driving. The fewer miles driven, the less exposure your car has to potential accidents. Although it may be difficult to reduce the usage of your car, cutting out some of those unnecessary journeys can often save money on your insurance premium.


        Annette Dutton Bratcher Blog : Well, that the Prius is actually kickass. Given its superb interior packaging, sound features list and unbeatable fuel economy, the Prius was designed to be the epitome of practical, head-over-heart automotive choices. Its driving experience will never excited and its styling is hardly what most dudes would deem attractive and beatifull, yet for those who view cars as simple transportation devices, it's easy to recommend the Prius. It is priced similar to traditional midsize sedans, while sacrificing some performance and standard features in favor of better fuel economy and greater interior/cargo space.

        Annette Dutton Bratcher Chat : Sending that power to the rear wheels is a six-speed automatic transmission that features three different shift modes. The regular mode maximizes efficiency, but there were times when it produced some slight herky-jerky motions under light acceleration. Ditto the Sport mode, but its quick gearchanges and ability to remain in a lower gear during aggressive driving was certainly appreciated. The driver can also control shifts with wheel-mounted paddles laid out in the proper fashion (left for downshift, right for upshift). Best of all, there's barely any lag evident between pulling a paddle and a gearchange.
