The New GM can definitely be proud of its new Branded Buick's Especially the Regal that sells all over the Globe! Not to mention a new Regal hasn't been sold in the U.S since the mid 2000's.
This awesome Americanized Aussie won the 2009 European Car of the Year and pins comparable imports such as the Volvo S60 and Acura TSX against the curb. The Volvo goes for almost 4 grand more, and the Acura TSX about 2 grand more. And why would you do that if the Regal has the same or MORE standard features, along with more interior and cargo room!
Now that's American Luxury for less!
Check out the Video below to see how the Regal handled for one week with this driver.
Stem Cell Transport Could Save Her Vision....I say I'm In!
Adult stem cell treatments have been used for many years to successfully treat leukemia and other blood and bone cancers using bone marrow transplants. Other stem cell treatments that show great promise include treatment of cancers, diabetes, arthritis, nervous system disorders, , skin damage, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, anti-aging, and other diseases which cause tissue damage. Stem cells are believed by many to be the very best hope for the treatment of previously untreatable diseases.
Unfortunatley the miracles of stem cell practices are not covered by insurance companies and many cutting edge surgeries aren't in the U.S. Thank goodness for organizations such as NTAF who are the leader in fundraising assistance and support for transplant and catastrophic injury. Gracie's story hit home for me not only because this is someone in our community, but I am a mother as well.
Gracie is a smart, loving, energetic, 4 year-old girl. She looks and acts like a typical toddler, but she is special. When Gracie was 7 months old, she was diagnosed with Septo-Optic Dysplasia and Optic Nerve Hypoplasia. SOD is a hormone disorder that is categorized by having a small pituitary gland (the hormone controller of the brain), small optic nerves (optic nerve hypoplasia), and missing part of the brain (in Gracie's case, it is the septum pellucidum). At this point, Gracie's only problem with this disorder is that she is visually impaired and legally blind. She is still too young to measure the exact amount she can see. At some point in her life, it is likely that she could develop a hormone imbalance. Every doctor has said that there is nothing that can be done to improve her disorder nor her vision. more......>
With the power of the internet her mother managed to stumble upon a facility in China that has used stem cell practices for this particular disorder for years. Her goal is to raise the money to be able to take Gracie there for the surgery in hopes of giving her the most out of life.
Our prayers are with Gracie and it was inspiring and a pleasure to learn and support there mission. Be sure to visit http://www.greatervisionforgracie.com/ if you want more details and how to make donations.

GMC Terrain first to Use Intellilink Technology
I would call myself a smartphone power user for sure, and with the lightning fast speeds of smartphone sales I am obviously one of millions who are the same. Unfortunately with this technology is it has driven a new epidemic of distracted drivers and fatalities as a result. Intellilink technology gives seamless integration of a drivers mobile devices to allow them to keep both hands on the wheel and full attention to the road. My favorite little SUV of the GMC line will be the first to have this technology!

Look Before you Tweet
Like all of you, I absolutley love Social Media. I love the power that it has given the average person. It's almost like some gift of power to have your voice heard by Millions. It's almost like being a celebrity... Well in my mind!
Businesses have also been able to leverage this wonderful as well. It gives them the opportunity to connect with you more on a personal level and for you to get to know the people behind the traditional brick and mortor. But, unfortunately some businesses do not have the time to actually have their own people socially engage their customers and fans and will have outside agencies run their networks.
As a consumer how does that really make you feel?
We at Borcherding are real people and we are here! And that feels great to us, because you do reach out to us and we do answer back and enjoy your feedback both negative and positive.
And occasionally it is quite amusing when you here of big businesses like Chyrsler that did slip from a social media mess up. All resulting from an outside firm. Read the full story here.
SMH!

Check the Tread on Your Tire TIME!
Check tires with the " Penny Trick"1
A Lincoln penny is the perfect tire gauge. The "penny trick" works because the distance between the rim and Lincoln's head is 1/16 of an inch -- the minimum required tread depth for proper handling.
Pinch a Lincoln-head penny, from the base between your thumb and forefinger, so that the top of Lincoln's head is showing.
Place the top of Lincoln's head into one of the tire tread grooves and measure in the lowest point within the tread.
If any part of Lincoln's head is obscured by the tread, you're all set -- you have a safe amount of tread. However, if you can see above Lincoln's head, then you are ready for a new tire.
Buick Helps Kids Lace up with Samaritan’s Feet
I love this cause and I hope that we can get something like this going locally. Please read below and I'm sure this will hit home as it did for me.
"While having one or more pairs of shoes is taken for granted in developed nations, more than 300 million children around the world go without shoes, and nearly 1 million die each year as a result of soil-transmitted illnesses and foot-borne diseases. In its effort to promote foot health for children, Samaritan’s Feet has a long-term goal to fit 10 million kids with 10 million pairs of shoes in 10 years."
