School is right around the corner. Are you ready for it? I know that I’m not ready at all. With all the things I need to get like need to get books, clothes, new T.V., computer, stereo and so many other things I can’t even remember. I don’t know about you but I’d like to do it all at one stop.
My friend told me about the Walden Galleria and I gave it a look. It has almost anything you need. It is one of the biggest malls I have ever been to. It has everything. And I mean everything. It was overwhelming but in a good way, like I wanted to see all the stores but I didn’t know where to start.
I saw it has everything from clothes to electronics, jewelry, and an enormous movie theater. With stores like JCPenny, Macy’s, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Best buy, The Apple Store, Game Stop, Lord & Taylor, and countless other stores, you can find anything you need for the upcoming year. And a food court which is as diverse as the stores surrounding it. I could also take a date there for a romantic dinner. It has fancy upscale restaurants like P.F. Chang’s, Cheesecake Factory, or The Melting Pot. But those restaurants are a little out of my price range, especially since back to school shopping is always the most expensive event of the year for me. I saw that this is one place where I can get everything I need in one stop.
When I go back to school I want to have the cool and nice brands that everyone knows but I don’t have that kind of money. AND I will need a new car for this fall semester. Between the salt, snow, ice, and hail I need to trade it in for a truck that can handle western NY.
So if you are looking for a car, we have over 200 cars and trucks you can choose from. There are trucks that can handle these Buffalo winters or high MPG cars for the eco friendly and money saving driver. You can get all your shopping done in one stop and not have to spend a dime of your own money. Come in and look at the great and affordable cars we have to offer!

Fishing
I’ve only been fishing a few times but it is definitely something I want to do more often. Every Monday morning I hear the salesmen talking about their trips and what a blast it was. They say there is nothing like sitting on Lake Erie with a cold beer and good friends. The summers are short but perfect for weekend fishing trips. Especially since all you have to do is take a quick drive down the thruway.
Some people think that fishing is a boring and an unexciting sport. It’s the exact opposite. There are tons of ways to enjoy it. I like to go with friends. We drive about an hour away to Fredonia to my friend’s beach house and get on his motor boat. We bring food and drinks so we never have to leave the lake. We bring the tube out so after we caught enough fish we can go tubing on the lake. In my opinion it’s the perfect weekend get away.
Fishing is great but like other activities, the equipment can be cumbersome and difficult to manage when we try to pack it in the car. The right car can make all the difference. We take weekend trips so we need to pack a lot of items, fishing gear, clothes, food, drinks, and other miscellaneous belongings. I know that having a car or truck which is built to handle trips and lots of baggage is a necessity.
Here at Basil Resale Sheridan you can find the perfect car for your fishing trip or any type of trip. We have a great selection of pick up trucks and SUV’s for your trips. We have over 200 used cars on our lot so there is something for everyone. Every car or truck here at Basil Resale Sheridan has passed a 101 point inspection to ensure our high quality standards and to ensure reliability and your safety. You will get a great warranty with your purchase, 6 month/ 6,000 mile warranty and free oil changes for life. We have a free shuttle service available to you also. Come by and see the largest inventory of used cars and trucks in Western Ny.

Festival Filled Weekend
Here at the office, Basil Resale Sheridan, there was a debate on what to do this weekend. I had no idea there was so much to do in the summers here in Buffalo. Other than just places to see, there fun-filled cultural historical festivals that have been going on for over 50 years.
First, there is Old Home Days right here in Williamsville. The goal is to celebrate this gorgeous historical town. It’s about a 15 minute drive from Basil Resale Center on Sheridan Drive. It will be filled with live music, great food, carnival rides, booths, games and tons of activities. Saturday is the last day so make sure to bring the whole family.
I hear one of the biggest events this weekend is the Italian festival. It’s taking place on Hertel Ave. If you love Italian food or practicing your Italian like me, then this weekend annual event is for you. There will be local entertainment, bocce tournament, Miss Italian Festival, Italian Idol Contest, essay contest for scholarships, computers for genealogical research, Italian bilingual Mass and religious processions, and live cooking demonstrations. This is a great outdoor festival has something for the whole family, with and amusement park and crafts just for kids.
Or if you are German or Austrian, there is a festival called Waldfest. It takes place outside in the woods of Cheektowaga. It started in 1938 and has been going every summer since. It is another great way to enjoy the upcoming weekend. It takes place Sunday and will consist of drinking, partying, dancing, eating, and having a great time. 4,000 people have come out to enjoy the festivities in the past, so it’s no small get together.
These ethnic events will make for a perfect cultural weekend. There will be plenty to do, eat, and drink. If you want to turn some heads at the festivals, be sure to come into Basil Resale Sheridan to find your perfect car.

Summer Getaways!
Summer is finally here! It’s time to grab the family and hit some vacation hot spots. But where is the best place to take your family and friends? I recommend a nice beach get away on Lake Erie.
To get away from it all, get down to the shores of southwestern NY. The location makes it an ideal travel spot since you don’t have to deal with the hassle of an airplane or a long drive. You will find that the peace, quiet, and beauty of this beach will keep you coming back with friends and family! My experiences out there have been nothing but positive. It is perfect for kayaking and jet-skiing. You can also go tanning on the beach or set up a net and play some volleyball.
The drive down the I-90 is scenic ride through a beautiful western NY landscape. It is definitely a change of pace from the crowded city of Buffalo. AND it’s only an hour away from the city!
Basil Resale Sheridan has a great selection of cars perfect for this trip. For the large family, we have a nice selection of large vehicles or minivans for the family or if you want to tow a boat or jet-ski out, we have the perfect SUV or truck for that too. Next time you are planning a road trip, come into Basil Resale Sheridan to see what car or truck is the perfect fit.

Fuel of the future
I am sick and tired of the price of gasoline. And on top of the high prices, I am filling up my tank every other day. I work too hard for my wallet to be this light.
If I was able to build my perfect car, it would be focused around fuel efficiency and fuel type. Electricity combines these two elements and makes for a great source of energy for a car. A new model called the Telsa gets 245 miles for every full battery charge. Compared to most cars and almost all SUV’s, the mileage the Telsa gets is a big improvement over conventional vehicles.
The cost of recharging your car would be much cheaper than refilling it. It would increase your electric bill but couldn’t compare to what would be saved on gas. And not to mention the convenience! In addition, using electricity will be more convenient. Rather than going to a gas station to refuel your car, you can plug it in between uses or at home while you sleep.
Even if a lower gas bill can’t change your mind other benefits include tax breaks, great acceleration, environmentally friendly, and lowered maintenance costs.
The electric car is growing in popularity and is the future of the fuel industry.
However, it will take some time before the electric car catches on. Until then, there are plenty of gas efficient cars around. I am always checking the window stickers to see the MPG on each car. Out of all the lots I have walked through, Basil Resale Sheridan has one of the top selections of energy efficient cars around.
Stop by Basil Resale Sheridan soon!

How to Choose the Right Car for You
I know when I was looking to buy a new car; I didn’t even know where to start. I liked so many different makes and models of cars that it was difficult to find a starting point. First I only looked at cars that I could afford, if it was out of my price range then there’s no sense in wasting time checking it out. Then I looked at all the makes & models of cars I liked and started to narrow it down. Then I went to the actually website’s of the models I liked and did more research. I also checked out dealership websites to see what was out there and if there were any deals. It was a long process but I narrowed it down to 4 cars (some might think that’s still a lot, but I started out with over 10 cars in mind). I went to the dealerships in person and compared prices, styles, features etc. I was in a rush to find a car, so if they didn’t have what I was looking for, then we were gone. I am not really that picky when it comes to cars. All I needed was a CD player, auxiliary power outlet, power windows, and DARK interior. Finally I narrowed it down to a Mazda 3. It had everything I wanted (that I listed above), and now that’s what I have. It took about a month to finally narrow it down to a Mazda 3, but if you really want to find the perfect car for you, it does take time. You can’t get discouraged; you just have to keep looking. Enough about what I think here are some facts.
Think about what you use your car for. Here are some questions to keep in mind. How many people do you need to transport? What type of driving do you do most often? How long is your commute? Is it important that your next vehicle get good gas mileage Let your needs, not your wants, drive your decision? Here are a few other questions to keep in mind when you begin your car-buying process:
Do you want a manual or automatic transmission?
Do you really need four-wheel drive? Or all-wheel drive?
What safety features do you want?
Do you require a lot of cargo capacity?
Will you be doing any towing?
Do you have a bad back and need flexible seating positions?
Will the car easily fit in your garage or parking space?
Regardless of whether you decide to buy or lease your next car, establishing a realistic monthly payment that fits into your budget is crucial. How much should this be? A rule of thumb is your total monthly car payments shouldn't exceed 20 percent of your monthly take-home pay.
Want to know if you can get pre-approved? On Basil Resale you can get pre-approved in seconds! Or you can check the Edmunds.com Affordability Calculator to help you estimate what your monthly payment will be based on purchase price, down payment, interest rate and length of loan. Run the numbers now and print out the results. It will not only show you what you can afford, it will also help you control the numbers when you negotiate with a car salesman.
If you’re stuck on what make and model of vehicle you should get don’t worry! On Basil’s website you can look at many different cars by a certain make, or you can look at different cars in the same class. This can help you to compare different cars and find the best car for you. You can find all that on most dealership websites. Or you can research cars on the makes website such as www.mazda.com where you can look at many different types of Mazda’s out there. You can check out Kelley Blue Book to see reviews, prices, seating capacity, gas mileage etc. Other websites that are good to check out are www.emunds.com and www.cars.com. The list goes on from here. You can probably use any major search engine and find out about any type of car you’re interested in.
Make sure when you’re looking for your perfect car that you know what you want. For example if you want a car that has high safety rankings or good on gas etc. Remember there is a car out there for everyone! If you really want to find a car with all the features you want I’m sure it’s out there! Sometimes you might have to compromise but you’ll still get the most of what you want.

Just got into a car accident? Don’t Panic!
There are more than 6 million car accidents each year in the United States, so you are not alone. Take a deep breath and look around. If you are able to see that you are not seriously wounded, follow this simple procedure that is vital to making your case for the accident report and for insurance purposes.
1)1st pull the car off the road so as not to cause any further accidents.
2)Assess injury for yourself and for the driver of the other vehicle.
3)Call 911 for anyone who is injured or just to file a report.
4)Make sure both parties exchange information such as name, address, phone number, insurance policy number, driver license number, and license plate number. Do not mention that the accident was your fault even if you feel as it was your fault. It is up to the police to determine who’s liable.
5)File an accident report with your local police station. An accident report will help insurance companies determine who will pay for the damages. There is a 10 day window to file the report to DMV so file it quickly!
6)TAKE PICTURES. In an age with camera phones make use of them! Photograph the condition of both vehicles and make sure every detail has been taken down. This may help your case. Buy a disposable camera and keep it in your dashboard just in case.
7)If there were witnesses, make sure you take their name down and contact information so they can help you piece together the claim. Contact them afterwards to get a signed statement of what and how it happened.
Finally, you have the option of whether to pursue the claim through the insurance company or settle the damages privately. Regardless of which method you choose, always follow the procedure above to minimize the risk of unfair claims and serious disputes.
