The love and passion for cars is unparalleled. A true car lover cherishes his automotive more than most things in life. One great aspect of being a car lover is constantly being in the presence of other car lovers.
A car enthusiast can never get cars out of his or her mind. So in view of that, we recommend that all car overs must have the following apps on their smartphones. This way you won’t ever be far away from the thing you hold very dear.
Here are six outstanding apps for car lovers. Thanks to John of No Hassle Mobile Phones for recommending these.
Waze
Waze is brilliant. It is easily the world’s largest community-centered traffic app that alerts you of the latest and real time traffic and road information. It also gives you the fastest routes and accident or road-blockage alerts.
The best thing about Waze is that if you and another friend have connected Waze to Facebook, you can see when they are driving in your area. This helps you co-ordinate plans. Waze is a very useful app if you are an enthusiastic and frequent traveler.
