Smartphone Holder To Use In Your Car

By Vinny O'Hare

Just got a cool package in the mail. It is a smartphone holder for the car. A few weeks ago I was contacted by the iMagnet company that sent this to me and asked if I would do a review. Usually I would say no but this one looked pretty cool and I actually need a smart phone holder so I agreed. I made the video in the Hyundai as it gave me room to set up the camera and tripod in the back seat. It is the first time I used the video on the camera so it is a little shaky.

I messed up and didn’t read the instructions first and put the metal plate that the magnet uses on the outside of the case. That was my own fault though. It has very good adhesive on it and is kind of hard to get off if you do it wrong like me. If I had to do it over again I probably would have only peeled half the tape off the backing. Why don’t guys read directions anyway 🙂

The magnet is very strong and if you are worried about the phone falling off I can tell you that shouldn’t be an issue. It sticks really tight to the cradle.

You can pick this up for $22.99 and if you purchase it our club gets a small commission if you use this link to buy it. Enter coupon 5OFFAFF2015 at checkout and save 5%.

Website Update is Live

By Vinny O'Hare

Last night I went ahead and changed the look and feel of the blog here. Although it looks kind of the same there is huge difference behind the scenes. Our website is now able to be read on a tablet or iPad for the first time without having to squint. While the main site is still not 100% where I want it to be the blog here is almost they way I like it. Sure I could have done a total redesign but like most people I hate change and I am sure our members don’t like change much either.

One thing the new update lets us do is have larger photos on the site. Let’s face it we are all getting older and our eyes are not what they use to be. What made me make the switch mostly was that WordPress the software we use stopped showing comments on the post. To me that is what makes the site work! I love getting comments on the site, wish we would get more actually.

Another thing I updated was the forms here. I can now set up a spot where our members can upload a picture of their car with details without me having to go in and do things like resizing the pictures or formatting the post. All these things are time consuming.

I can also offer the ability to post information about Cadillacs by the members. Sometimes in the comments I wish we had more information. Earle’s comment the other day about what to have in your car when you come across the country is exactly what I wish I could write! Now we can have members create a post. That ability will be coming shortly.

Fun Road Trip Map of the USA

By Vinny O'Hare

I have been planning on taking a trip across the country. Eventually I think we will be driving back to New York from Phoenix once the house is lifted. I stumbled across this fun graphic I thought I would share. It explains the roads a little and what you should have in your car when driving a long trip. Is there anything missing? What else would you bring with you?
