Toyota Working With Tesla for New Electric Vehicle

Toyota has teamed up with Tesla in their latest move to curb the alternative energy market - their latest partner is none other than the famous electric vehicle maker Tesla, who has begun working on a brand new electric-powered Toyota RAV4. Nothing is set in stone as of yet, but rumors from sources inside Toyota put the value of the deal around $1 billion - a big chunk of change, but definitely a worthy one. As auto transporters can attest to, Toyota is still one of the best-selling brands in the United States, and their stock is only going to continue to go up. For Tesla, who has been looking for a way to turn a major profit after financial troubles over the past few years, this comes as a welcome lifeboat for a dying company.

Obama White House Steps Up, Demands Better Fuel Economy from Large Vehicles

For the first time in history, fire trucks and other large vehicles such as semi trucks, concrete mixers, and others are going to be seeing the way that mainstream vehicles have to go - better fuel economy. It comes at a time when large vehicles are becoming increasingly harder and harder to fuel, but the Obama white house is saying that by enacting this new law businesses will save billions in fuel costs, as well as an increase in air quality and public health. However, auto transporters are not looking forward to it, as it means that they will have to update their rigs - and for many, that’s not an easy thing to do.

4-Cylinder Engines More Popular Than Ever

In the wake of high gas prices and pushes for environmentally friendly vehicles that save at the pump, customers are turning away from six-cylinder and eight-cylinder engines in record numbers. Auto transporters have noticed a decline in v6 and v8 engines over the years, and the numbers don’t lie: four-cylinder engines account for 43% of vehicles on the road today, up from 25% in 2005, while v8 engine sales have dropped to just 18% from 29% just six years ago. Six cylinders dropped from 43% to 37%, and analysts are projecting more drops over the next few years.

Portland, OR Hotbed for Electric Cars

As a Pacific Northwest resident, I feel it’s my duty to report when something happens to shine the light on our wet little corner of the United States. According to All Cars Electric, Portland, OR has become one of the leading cities for electric vehicles and charging stations, outranking such major cities as Chicago, Los Angeles and New York for the number of charging stations as well as the ease of use and access. Many auto shipping companies have noticed a rise in the number of electric and hybrid vehicles moving out of the Northwest, and auto shipping drivers have also noticed that more and more charging stations are popping up. Looks like the Pacific Northwest is leading the country for once. Although we did have Jimi Hendrix.

30 Day Company Ranking Update

I decided to focus today’s post on the auto-transportation industry to see if there were any new names among the top rankings and that’s when I came across M2reeves, LLC. The company has been doing very well as of late and has been the highest rated auto-transport company for the last 30 days according to Transportreviews.com. They’ve received a ton of positive reviews in the past month which has secured their top ranking. And when checking the overall company ranking for the past year I found that M2reeves’ costumer rating is inside the top 10. Due to the high level of customer satisfaction, I decided to do a quick post on this company

First, in case anyone isn’t familiar with transportreviews.com they’ve become a popular and reliable source for reviews on auto transport companies. They’re not run by any transportation company that may be interested in falsifying reviews for personal gain or another’s detriment. Transportreviews.com is actually run by Valley Solutions, Inc, which specializes in search engine optimization, web design, and custom programming. They’ve managed to create a popular and impartial website that is based completely on customer reviews.

From Transportreviews.com I took a look at M2reeves’ website. It was professional, organized and its quote system was easy to use. M2reeves specializes in helping customers find the lowest possible transportation quotes with movers they trust and have worked extensively with for years. They’re able to ship everything from cars, to boats, to motor homes and they offer a team of live customer representatives.

M2reeves also offers door-to-door service; which means they’ll pick your car up at your house and deliver it directly to your specified drop off location. A positive thing about this is that you can watch the entire loading and unloading process and the only time you’re not with your car is when it’s en route.

You can check out the M2reeves auto shipping website and read up about their services and even get a free quote. They appear to be a very capable business and we’ll have to see how long they can stay atop the rankings.
