The Toyota Celica?s name is actually a Spanish word that means ?heavenly? or ?celestial?. This vehicle was originally crafted and designed for those people who were young at heart and also for those people who desired and longed for simple transportation. Planning for this vehicle started in 1967. This vehicle lived a ripe age up until 2004. During the time of its planning and design, the Toyota Celica sported a style that was considered to be revolutionary for that time. It also became quite an influential vehicle as per the establishment of the sporty subcompact market segment.
Originally, this vehicle was equipped with a 1.6 liter four-cylinder engine. It was made available in only one trim level which was the ST form. This vehicle was a sport coupe that held two doors. It was rather an image car, not a high-volume car. It sold well during that time.
Through the years, the Toyota Celica underwent many changes in its lifetime. One of the first changes came in 1976 when the whole line of the vehicle welcomed a new model. The addition was a liftback model. This offered a sportier handling, and a higher-grade trim. It was marketed and sold as a sport-touring type of vehicle that offers greater comfort and luggage capacity than the original model that was sold.
After two years, the second generation Toyota Celica rolled off the manufacturing plants. This time, it was made available in ST and GT trim levels. It offered more safety, power, and economy than the previous models. In 1982, the third generation of Toyota Celicas came into view. And after a year, another model was added to the Toyota Celica line up ? this time it held a sportier image and it was named the Toyota Celica GT-S model. This vehicle held larger wheels, larger tires, fender flares, sports suspension, and a sportier interior that featured special seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a gearshift knob. The following years, the Toyota Celica continued to receive a variety of changes that included new engines, upgrades on its wheels, tires, and power, new luxury items added in, sound systems and entertainment systems added up, and headlights changed.
As per the last set of changes for the last batch of Toyota Celicas to be produced, this last line was made available in only two trims which were the GT and the GTS. This generation sported an aggressively styled front and rear bumpers, rocker panels, and rear spoilers. It offered a manual or automatic transmission. It also featured air conditioning, tilt steering, disc/drum brakes, 140 hp engine, six-speed manual transmission, 16 inch alloy wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, power windows, power locks, cruise control, high intensity discharge headlamps, power tilt/slide moonroof, and side impact airbags.

Nokialand
by: Nicolas Fogelholm
I guess you haven?t heard of NokiaLand before? The naming NokiaLand has to do with the worlds big-gest handset manufacturer Nokia and Finland, the country it comes from.
Nokia
Nokia has not always been a world leader in cell phones, digital technologies, telecommunications networks, wireless data solutions and high tech gadgets like the Nokia 770 Internet Tablet. Some 100 years ago the company was manufacturing paper, toilet paper, galoshes, tires and raincoats.
Finland
Thanks to Nokia Finland has become one of the fastest-growing and most prosperous economies in Europe. And Nokia phones have a dominant market position on its home market. This is why Finland is sometimes referred to as NokiaLand.
In the 1980s Finland was best known for its paper and pulp industries and long dark winters. At the same time Nokia made the decision to shift its company focus from timber, tires, and rubber...

Motorcycle Tire Tips
by: Maricon Williams
Motorcycle tires are oftentimes misunderstood. This is a saddening fact. They must be well-taken care of because they affect comfort, safety, handling as well as the entire ride.
We riders must be aware of the two types of tire construction ? the bias-ply and the radial. Cruisers, usually use bias-ply tires. On the other hand, sport bikes use radials. Bias-ply has a round profile and high sidewalls while a radial tire has a flatter profile and shorter sidewalls.
In bias-ply, the carcass is made up of overlapping layers of nylon or rayon cords. The flexing action generates heat to result to a good grip. The disadvantage though of this construction is that it decreases performance and accelerates tire wear when too much heat is generated. Radial tire construction, however, got its name because its plies are running at a 90-degree angle. As oppose to the bias-ply, this construction reduces heat...

Does GPS Vehicle Tracking Equate To 'Big Brother?'
Does GPS Vehicle Tracking Equate To 'Big Brother?'
by: Ken Sink
When people ask about my business, I tell them, ?My company offers GPS vehicle tracking systems.? Their response lets me know whether they are an employee or a business owner.
The first words out of the mouth of an employee is: ?Sounds like ?Big Brother? to me.? Oh no, not ?Big Brother!? Visions of mind-controlled drones working like slaves come to mind and they quickly walk away.
?Big Brother?? What is wrong with a business monitoring their vehicles? Or making sure their employees are doing what they?re being paid to do? Who owns these vehicles, anyway? Does the owner have a right to know how they?re being used?
Now, don?t get me wrong. I believe employees should be trusted and treated as adults. But, if you?ve ever driven a rental vehicle differently than the car you own, then you understand how an employee may mistreat a company vehicle.
Take the speeding employee,...
