Here are some more information for Jeep Portable:
In 1960, the average auto repair cost for a popular midsize car driven for 15,000 miles a year was about $8,053. After a decade, the cost got cheaper and averaged about $7,770. In 2000, that figure went down to $6,880.
Having your vehicle repaired really does mean that you have to shell out some hard-earned cash from time to time. This is the reason why most people try to keep their cars in tiptop shape through regular maintenance. The continued upkeep of a vehicle helps it perform at optimum levels and lessens the risk of a total breakdown. It also helps fix problems while they are still manageable and do not yet affect a significant part of the car's systems. It is better to pay for car tune-ups every so often than to rack up bills for a major problem.
Take a look at your vehicle. You will see that it is made up of individual parts connected to form a bigger functioning whole. The performance of a system depends on the efficiency of its parts. If one part does not work as well as it should, the entire car system is affected. This is why it is important to identify damage or malfunction right away. When you recognize a problem early, you are able to solve it more promptly, saving yourself big expenses in the long run.
Here are a few systems found in a vehicle, along with the average cost of their repairs. The four-wheel drive's differential and transfer case, for example, has an average repair cost of $1100. Containing over a hundred parts, the air conditioner and heater system could incur repair costs as high as $700. The brake system, which is also comprised of more than a hundred parts, has an average repair cost of $350.
When the cooling system breaks down, you can pay as much as $465 on average to get it fixed. Drive axles and differentials have over 70 parts and the price of their repairs falls between $500 and $1000. Repair costs for your car's electrical systems can reach $800. Troubleshooting your engine costs about $2000. You pay an average of $550 for repairs on the fuel system and $600 for the steering system.

Automakers Add High-tech Perks
The "pimping your ride" term, as popularized by an MTV reality TV show, is no longer just for the superrich. This is because automakers are now adding high-tech perks to their lineups to attract more customers.
You do not have to beat the wealth of Oprah Winfrey or Bill Gates to own the most fascinating vehicle on the road. The oohs and ahhs of modern vehicles could now be enjoyed by commoners and ordinary folk at a not-so-expensive amount. Enthusiasts may no longer worry about aftermarket accessories after making an auto purchase - the modern perks are now included in some car packages.
"The technology is what gets people the most," said Priest, a 23-year-old lab technician at The Scripps Research Institute which is based in San Diego. "They don't really care anymore about what's under the hood. It's all about what's in the car now."
One stunning feature that is now increasingly sold even on modestly priced vehicles is the telematics - otherwise called dashboard electronics. General Motors Corp. and Honda Motor Corp. have included the technology even into the low-end product lines. Tech perks enthusiasts are jubilant to know the feature can already be had affordably.
There are also automobiles which are given specially ordered options that cover a range from air-conditioned glove compartments, heated cup holders, voice-activated navigation systems, rear-facing cameras, and keys that automatically unlock cars as soon as the holder is within three feet from the vehicle.
Other high-tech perks offered by automakers include sophisticated dashboard video displays, auxiliary jacks for portable music players, and Bluetooth wireless for hands free cell phone calls. These perks are now often factory-installed. iPod integration kits are now available for an additional $150 to $200. The kit allows drivers to manage the portable player from steering wheel buttons while keeping the device hidden.
The Consumer Electronics Association estimates that U.S. factory-to-dealer sales of in-vehicle technologies will rise to $9.6 billion in 2007 from the previous $8.5 billion in the year 2006. "You don't have to spend a lot of money to get the toys," said Stuart Draper, the operations manager at a Chrysler Jeep dealership in San Francisco.
Priest's Acura which is priced at $35,500 has enough perks to offer a taste of lavishness. The car’s navigation system can change radio stations or the climate by voice command. The car is not only limited to common offerings like Acura cold air intake, radiator, suspension and filters. Now, the car means more than the usual to remind its owner that he is in the digital era.
Priest said his geared-up Acura is a far cry from the 1995 Ford Thunderbird he used to drive. "It had power seats," he concluded, "and that was about it."
Phil Magney, a Telematics Research Group analyst, estimates that Bluetooth hands-free systems will be available in 37 percent of 2007 models, up from 28 percent last year. He added that voice-recognition controls will rise to 59 percent from 39 percent and iPod-integration will jump to 47 percent from 12 percent.

What is the best portable GPS unit?
It's a Christmas present for my fiance and I know nothing about these. I know he wants to be able to put in something like "Starbucks" or "Quiznos" and have it tell him where the nearest one is. Can they do that? Which one should I get? We live in NY (Queens) and he drives a Jeep Grand Cherokee.
To clarify...he wants one for the car, I don't think he'd need to use it out of the car. Maybe I should have said "automotive" instead of "portable"? Thanks for the help!
For automotive GPS I would recommend either the Magellan Roadmate range or the Garmin Streetpilot or Garmin Nuvi range. There are a full range of pricepoints in each of these model ranges. The Garmin Nuvi range has a search feature that will take you to your nearest McDonalds or whatever. You go through a simple menu that you are looking for food, then take-away food, then fast-food, or chineese or whichever type you are looking for. Look for a model that has 'bluetooth' which will allow it to connect to a cell phone for making hands-free calls through the unit. It will even dial the place you are looking to go.
These items although designed for automotive use are small enough to slip into your pocket and take with you when you leave the vehicle so you don't leave any calling cards for car thieves.
