The Huvaere Group would like to thank everyone for their help last week with the snow. It appeared no one was expecting as much as we got, so it was nice that everyone stepped up and helped with all the clearing duties. Thanks!

Bradley, President of Dealer Synergy said, ?Having an event like this at Towbin Dodge, immediately kicks up the energy level of everyone attending.?
 Guests will have an opportunity to see some ?Chopper Edition? vehicles, tour the dealership and be a special guest of the ?King of Cars VIP tent.? Naturally all the Towbin Dodge ?Characters? will be there too.

Mobile electronics embraced by young enthusiasts
The following is a short excerpt from the ?2006 SEMA Compact Performance Market Report.?

In-car entertainment systems have been a big ingredient of this segment since younger consumers have always been a prominent demographic and value music as a social tool. Stereo systems are unquestioned elements of compact performance cars. They are among the first changes made and behave as a gateway to other modifications. Undoubtedly, as the focal point of in-car entertainment, head-units are one of the most popular additions to personalize an interior and are frequently accompanied by speakers and amplifiers. More advanced flip-up consoles have revolutionized the entertainment sector and continue to make headway for other electronic devices.
