Take a second look at how you're setting up your Hyundai Car mirrors!
Some of us have been driving
for years, but that doesn't mean we are all doing everything perfectly.
Maybe it's time to freshen our skills up and make sure we are setting up
our side-view mirrors properly. Its original intent was to help us
cover the blind spot, it's not meant to help you see who's behind you.
Let's take a minute and look at this video to find out how to properly
align your mirrors. If you have any questions be sure to ask us, we'd
love to help!

Best road music of all-time!
Driving on long road trips
doesn't have to be boring. Music can be quite the element that turns a
regular drive into an epic memory that you will never forget. For this
reason, we have decided to compile the best driving songs of all-time.
We understand music is very, subjective, so please do not hesitate to
chime in and tell us what you prefer!
Those are motivating, fun, upbeat and will keep you going for hours!

1. "Road Tripping" - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Imagine yourself on your way to work on these roads!

Hussaini Bridge, Pakistan
Sometimes it’s easy to forget how inaccessible some parts of the world are. The Gilgit-Baltistan region of North
ern Pakistan is one such location, with transport links to the rest of Pakistan notoriously difficult. The mountainous terrain, lack of dedicated roads, and wide rivers ensure inter-region travel is tricky, and the development of the Karakoram Highway has done little to ease the struggle over the last 100 years.

Paso Internacional Los Liberatores, Argentina/Chile
As the main transport road out of the Chilean capital of Santiago and into Argentina’s Mendoza city, it sees a large volume of traffic on a daily basis. For regulars, it’s just another part of the daily commute. For outsiders, it’s perhaps one of the most terrifying mountain passes in the world.

Tren a las Nubes, Argentina
Making its second entry into the terrifying travel list, Argentina has chalked up another point on the ‘no-thanks’ scoreboard.
The Tren a las Nubes, or Train to the Clouds, is a 270-mile train line that, at points, reaches heights of over 13,850 ft above sea level. Coasting the Argentina/Chile border high in the Andes, the ten cars carry up to 640 passengers at an average speed of 21 mph.

North Yungas Road, Bolivia
The mother of all terrifying commutes, the North Yungas Road is alternatively known affectionately as the ‘Road of Fate’ and the ‘Death Road’. Yes, Death Road. One estimate is that between 200 and 300 travellers are killed on this road annually. Fantastic, let’s go.

Nature meets cars, in Sweden country side!
Deep within a Swedish forest lie 1,000 forgotten cars from the 1950s. The rusting vehicles are all that remains of a scrap yard set up in the wake of the Second World War. Back then it was the final destination for cars abandoned by American soldiers leaving Europe after the war. Two forest-dwelling Swedish brothers ran the scrap yard until the 1980s before they abandoned the site in the 1990s, leaving the forest undergrowth to claim the cars. Today, rusting classic cars including vintage Opels, Fords, Volvos, Buicks, Audis, Saabs and a Sunbeam litter the natural undergrowth.
Photographer Svein Nordrum ventured into the dense woods to snap some pictures of the abandoned vehicles. He said: "It is very quiet in there. It is a strange feeling when you’re there, as if you’re on the edge of the world... The forest is very dense. You can only see a couple of cars at any one time - the rest disappear into the woods. The cars are now a part of nature in a way. The trees grow all over and through the cars, with branches sneaking through windows and over the bonnets."
The 1,000 corroded vehicles are collectively worth an estimated £100,000 in scrap. However, efforts to remove the cars from the forest have been thwarted. Nordrum said "Some people in Sweden want to remove the cars, but environmentalists keep stopping them. Apparently birds and other animals have made nests in the bodywork."
The car graveyard is in the mining country of Bastnas, a town in southern Sweden. Hikers have discovered trees growing around bodywork and moss covering seats and steering wheels.
