If you are one of those persons who has a little problem with parallel parking have no worries. Ford announced that they`ll put an automated parallel parking system in their new Lincoln MKS and MKT. The system is based on a electric power assisted steering and ultrasonic sensors and is capable of calculating the distance to other cars in order to determinate if the car has enough space to park. In the process it tells you when to shift in Reverse or in First Gear when to accelerate and when to brake. Easy ? We think it is easier then never to parallel park a car then ever with this system.

Yes, the Russia is affected by the general crisis as well. This combined with the falling prices on oil makes a hard time for the Russian people and thus for the car sales. Ford is also affected and they`ll stop the production at their factory in Russia for 1 month. The same thing announced Renault regarding their plant in Russia.

The UK`s Sunday Mail is reporting something very interesting. Ford has returned to SAIC(Shanghai Automotive Industry Corp. in order to sell Volvo to them. SAIC is one of the leading contenders to snap up Volvo. Ford wants to sell Volvo after almost 2 years in which they said it wasn`t for sale. I gues the Crisis really affected them. More surprisingly they sell Volvo on a lower price than they originally bought it, $6 Billion, instead of $6.4 Billion.
Besides SAIC, Hyundai Motor CO. is also interested in buying Volvo as well as the Swedish government. It`s still unclear how the sale of Volvo to SAIC will affect the sales of Volvo Cars.We`ll just have to wait and see.
