There are so many technologies and features that can be found on newer preowned vehicles. Sometimes it’s hard to know which ones to focus
on. Yet it is important to decide which ones are important to you, as you can end up overspending if you choose a vehicle that is loaded with every one. Finding the perfect used car can be difficult, and sometimes extra options are the last priorities. But it is still good to know which ones you would prefer. GPS in used cars has become very popular, and many late model used cars would include this. If the vehicle does not include GPS, you can easily install one yourself.
The satellite-based Global Positioning System navigation network was first used in 1978 by the United States Department of Defense for military purposes. By the mid-1980s, ultrahigh-tech tracking devices that communicate with the GPS became available on the free market. The modern day GPS consists of 24 satellites. Each one laps the planet twice a day.
The satellites broadcast constant low-power radio signals to GPS receivers on Earth, in which the device tacks people’s position. The GPS system calculates how far the device is from each satellite, based on how long it takes to receive the signal.
Some devices work on voice commands, and some offer other information, such as restaurants or gas station locations. One plus is that GPS reception is unaffected by hills, canyons, passing trucks. Though, they do sometimes fail to work underground or in a parking structure. The device can be truly helpful if you are in an unfamiliar place, and can even help with the value of the used car. This is a technology that is here to stay. No one really needs this, but after having used it, you may not be able to imagine life with out.
Finding Frazer Used Cars
Frazer Township is a township in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States. The population was 1,286 at the 2000 census. The Pittsburgh Mills shopping mall complex is located in the township. The township has a total area of 9.4 square miles, all of it land. Allegheny County was the first in Pennsylvania to be given a Native American name, being named after the Allegheny River. The word "Allegheny" is of Lenape origin, with uncertain meaning. It is usually said to mean "fine river", but sometimes said to refer to an ancient mythical tribe called "Allegewi" who lived along the river long ago before being destroyed by the Lenape.
Not a great deal is known about the native inhabitants of the region prior to European contact. During the colonial era various native groups claimed or settled in the area, resulting in a multi-ethnic mix that included Iroquois, Lenape, Shawnee, and Mingo. The first Europeans to enter the area were the French in 1749. Captain Pierre Joseph de Celeron, sieur de Blainville claimed the Ohio Valley and all of Western Pennsylvania for Louis XV of France. The captain traveled along the Ohio and Allegheny Rivers inserting lead plates in the ground to mark the land for France.
