Vehicle Features that keep you Organized

From 3arf

There are many features within your vehicle that can help keep you organised. Some come already fitted to your car, others you can add after purchase or when a need is discovered.

Most cars already come with clocks fitted, if you do not have a clock then there are many options available, clocks that you can fit to your dash or put anywhere you need to have one. However it is a good idea to make sure the clock is placed somewhere you can easily see it without being distracted from driving. How else can you know if you are on schedule if you do not know what the time is?

Storage, storage and more storage. Keeping your possessions in your car uncluttered and organised is made easy with most of todays cars. There are many boxes, cubby holes and locations where you can put things so that they are safely stored. It is important to make sure there are not too many items laying about inside your car as such can easily cause injury if they fly about in an accident. If you do not have enough storage space it is possible to buy aftermarket storage options such as ones that fit over a seat, clip to the dash or even fit to the roof of your car should you need a lot of additional storage space.

GPS is another item that will help you be organised during your driving experience. Some cars come with these already fitted or are a purchase option with additional cost. However you can choose an aftermarket gps option as there are many companies such as Garmin that can supply a gps unit for your car that looks as if it was fitted during manufacture. These gps devices are a great way of being organised on your journey as you can plan the best route and in some cases avoid those traffic jams.

Some cars come with a computer that can show you your fuel usage. This is a great way to be organised as you can tell what range you have to travel before you need to fill up with petrol. Running out of gas is very disorganised and also inconvenient. Such computers can also indicate the most economic way to drive which means you are getting the best gas mileage too which helps your pocket and the environment.

If your car does not have a computer a more basic feature that can help in a similar way is your odometre as this records driven miles. From this if you know your cars average fuel consumption you can calculate how far you can go.

The fuel gauge is probably one of the most basic feature organisation wise. Failing to pay attention to this gauge means you will come to a halt in a very disorganised manner due to running out of petrol.
