...mid-size passenger car, the Chevrolet Malibu, such as easier handling and a quieter, more enjoyable ride. The Malibu has been redesigned to be as comfortable as a luxury vehicle with a better performance than other vehicles in its class. The Chevrolet Equinox might boast a roomier interior like most crossovers, but the Chevrolet Malibu is a better value, not only because of price but also gas mileage, safety and interior space. While the price of an SUV used to be significantly higher than a mid-size sedan, with the invention of the smaller, car-based models, prices are now comparable. The Malibu starts at $21,995 and goes up to $29,700. (http://autos.aol.com/cars-Chevrolet-Malibu-2013/safety-features/) The Equinox starts at $24,155 and, depending on the features, can max out at $32,665.

...Upon researching the 2010 Chevrolet Malibu and 2015 Chevrolet Cruze, my vehicle preference would be the Malibu. As a starter car, the price of the Malibu, which is less than $5,000, is a more realistic and manageable choice than the Cruze. The monthly loan payments for 3 years, including interest, are just over $150, while the Cruze has a heavy price tag $650. Additionally, about $150 for auto insurance would have to be added to both of the cars’ total monthly payments. Also, the True Cost to Own price of the two cars differs, worth the Malibu favorably at $27,304, and the Cruze at $33,674. Another important factor of the comparisons of these two cars, is the safety of the vehicles. Although both vehicles performed greatly in their safety test...

...an automobile brand established in 1926 as a companion make for General Motors’’. General Motors made the first Pontiac car in 1926 with a V6 engine. (Ron,1999). Pontiac started to make models from 1926 till 2010, and then it got bankrupt for many reasons, but the main ones are : product overlap, and profit margins. First of all, Pontiac had too much overlap with Chevrolet. Pontiac cars were great Cars, but there were few of them that supported General Motors to get Pontiac out of business. There was no need for a G6 GTP when you have the Malibu LTZ. For example, people in the hole world are not supposed to buy a 2006-2009 Pontiac G6 GTP which is available in limited countries when the Malibu LTZ is available in worldwide.(Asker,2010). In addition, Pontiac were the prettiest cars made by General Motors. However, few of them were bringing excitement. (Ron,1999). Not all Pontiac cars were sold to bring excitement. For instance, a Pontiac Grand Am will stand out in a crowded parking lot, but a Bonneville will not stand out in a parking lot. Second, Pontiac got bankrupt because of low profit margins. According to Asker (2010), “ Pontiac is not a premium brand”. Some of people have said that General Motors should keep Pontiac instead of Buick...

...The autos utilized demonstrated standard Chevrolet drivetrains and turned out to be both solid and dependable throughout the years. Chevelle SS The Chevelle SS spoke to Chevrolet's entrance into the muscle auto fight. Mid 1964 and 1965 Chevelles had a Malibu SS identification on the back quarter board. Chevelles with the mid-1965 Z16 choice, valued at US$1,501 in 1965,[2] had the seal on the front bumper and also unmistakable in-house style numbers: 737 for the hardtop and 767 for the convertible.[3] The $162 Super Sport bundle was accessible on the upscale Malibu two-entryway hardtop and convertible models; the alternative included uncommon outside brightwork with SS images and the 14-crawl full-plate wheel covers from the Impala SS. Inside, the vinyl basin seat inside highlighted a story console for models furnished with the discretionary Muncie aluminum four-velocity manual or Powerglide two-pace programmed rather than the standard three-rate manual. Malibu SS additionally got a four-gage group set up of motor cautioning lights, and a dash-mounted tachometer was optional.[4] The accessible 283-cubic-inch four-barrel V8 motor appraised at 220-pull was the same rating as the 1957 Chevy Power-Pak 283 motor. While the 1964 Malibu SS might have reviewed past glories, the new "musclecar" future was accessible over at Pontiac. There, Chevelle's Pontiac Tempest corporate cousin had a 389-cubic-inch V8 to make the 325 pull (242 kW) Pontiac GTO, and further discretionary 348 hp, took...

...but also make[made] the wakeboarding wakes much more crisp and clean” (Head). The industry standard hull used today is the deep v hull. This hull maximizes a boats water displacement and provides the cleanest and biggest wake. This kind of amelioration has helped riders to land new tricks every year, pushing the sport forward. As well as having advances in boat structure to create bigger wakes, additional pieces of technology started to be added to boats in the mid 2000s to make wake size even larger. The most predominant example of this was Malibu Boats’ Power Wedge, which they claim they were the first to release in 2006 (Malibu Boats 1). This is a T shaped wedge underneath the boat at the stern, providing an additional 300 pounds of ballast weight with out adding any additional water weight (Malibu Boats 2). Combine this with a boat like the Malibu LSV 25, that has the deep v hull and can hold a potential “4,825 pounds” (Malibu Boats 3) of additional ballast water, and you will see how in approximately 20 short years how the industry has gone from a regular knee high wakes to abdomen high tsunamis. Additionally to the power wedge, but probably even more important, was Nautique making the early addition of the a wakeboard tower as a standard feature in 1997 (Nautique Boats). This moved the anchor point of the rope from parallel to the rider to an upward angle from the rider. This gave riders upward lift coming off the wake, allowing for more air time, in turn allowing...

...More Policies Equals Less Jobs In recent years, there have been more and more policies being imposed on businesses in California. Sure, air pollution regulations have cleaned up the air, but they have done so partly by driving the “dirty” industries out of California and into Nevada, Arizona, and Texas. The air is cleaner here, but it is not clear that this has had a net benefit either to California’s economy or the world’s environment. A Better Way of Spending The California State Assembly has spent millions of dollars California does not have on trying to improve the environment. However, it is still not very clear whether the environment has actually been improved. For example, the Malibu City Council recently approved the spending of 15 million dollars on restoring the Malibu lagoon. If they allocated even half of that...
