5 Must Have Tracks on a Road Trip

      Road trip rings a happy bell in your mind and you’re quick to pull out those sun glasses and your hat. The alluring freedom and joy of a road trip is definitely comparable to no other mode of travel. A wise man once said, travel is about enjoying the journey and not about reaching the destination. It’s about feeling the wind blowing through your air and the beautiful landscape of stark natural beauty staring right back at you, not sizing you up, and not judging you out. A calm serenity and a peaceful isolation from norms, with blaring speakers and no mom to turn it down! Road trips are about long drives, delicious camp food, bonfires and great music that gets your head bobbing and throats croaking. Music is the fuel, for everything in a road trip. Here are 5 songs you cannot leave without, on a road trip.

We Didn't Start the Fire – Billy Joel

Billy Joel’s music is ever green and everybody simply loves his music! This song is an all time classic and has amazing composition and beats. There won’t a soul who won’t have his foot tapping and head bobbing to ‘We Didn't Start the Fire’. Set it on and turn up the volume as you see the trees passing by and a deep blue sky!

Y.M.C.A – Village People

Everybody knows the YMCA anthem and everybody just loves to sing it aloud. You can’t set out on a road trip without this track in your collection. This song has the beats that get you pumping and jumping as your cruise in your car.

Californication – Red Hot Chili Peppers

Road trips give you the sunny California feel and there is no song better than Californication to get a smug grin on your face and let the feeling of a road trip vacation sink deep down in you. The blatant sarcasm and the thumping beats of this track will make you scream out loud with joy!

Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door – Guns N’ Roses

Every Guns N’ Roses song yells freedom and liberation! Your road trip is nothing short of heaven and you’re just knockin’ on heaven’s door! It’s that one song which everyone sings together, aloud and clear with the volume at max! Set it on and enjoy Slash’s magical riffs and the intensity of GNR.

 Kashmir – Led Zeppelin

Led Zep need no introduction and nor does the epic song Kashmir. You can never pay enough respect to this legendary band that created magic in every song that they played. Kashmir is one of those intense melodies that you quietly hum. If there is wind in your hair, this is the song on your lips.

Swift & Steady Modification

The possibilities with a car are endless. There is always a way of improving your car for the better, be it the exterior or the interior. People also tweak their engines in order to improve aspects such as performance and power.  Considering how there will never be a car you own which is the only one of its kind, modifying your car isn’t a bad idea. In fact it would be great to add your own touch of uniqueness and let your car reflect your personality.

Let’s take a look at a few of the various things one could do in order to add to the visual appeal of your car. For starters, you could get a nice specialized car audio system in your car. Add a bass tube and subwoofer, and boy will that make a difference. There are several audio systems available in the market, each quipped with the latest features like Bluetooth and a USB port.

Another thing you could do is change the seats or seat covers. Top quality leather seats reflect greatly on the car owner’s insistence on perfection and also greatly add to the comfort of the passenger.

You could add a few other things to the interior of your car; say for example, a tachometer. This would help you keep your eyes on the road and exactly know your revs.  A GPS navigation system, this large touch screen device would make your car look fancy and also guide you wherever your destination is.

A paint job would probably be the most noticeable change one can make to their car. So if you’ve been contemplating on changing the colour of your car for a long time, don’t waste more time and go do it. Seeing your car in an entirely new colour would bring the biggest smile to your face. You could also add a few graphics to the exterior of your car. This would greatly improve the style quotient of your car, maybe even design the graphics yourself to make it one of a kind.

Another exterior addition to your car could be a spoiler. This would lend a very sporty feel to your car and also greatly help the aerodynamics of your car. You could also add a side skirting or a body kit to your car to enhance the exterior look and feel.

So what are you waiting for, if you’re one who has a list of modifications you've always wanted to do, stop procrastinating and get on it.

“Let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.” - J.K Rowling

The usual monotonous routine of waking up, going to office and coming back home, over and over again, week after week, can get to you. Hence, we need some adventure in our lives. The best way to feel that rush of adrenaline pumping through every vein of your body, and the beads of sweat breaking at your brow is by undertaking an adventure sport. We have spoken in the past about how the Swift owner is fearless and a risk taker, and how these qualities would greatly help any Swift owner looking to attempt an adventure sport.

We have also spoken about more popular adventure sports like sky diving and bungee jumping in a previous post. However, let’s now take a look at those unheard, crazier then crazy adventure sports which would make even the most brave and bold people flinch.

Volcano Boarding: Just the thought of a volcano instantly gives one the feeling of chaos and destruction. Ever imagined what it would feel like to race down the throat of an active 2,380 ft volcano high at a speed of well over 80kmph? Head to the foothills of the Nicaragua’s Cerro Negro Mountains to find out what this new craze is all about.

Limbo Skating: Limbo Skating is basically the art of skating below cars, however impossible a task this may seem, it can be done. Wonder kid Aniket Chindak set the record for limbo skating below beneath 57 cars when he was just six years old.

Cliff Diving:  Cliff diving takes the relatively simple task of diving to a whole new level. As the name suggests, cliff diving requires one to perform an acrobatically perfect dive into a water body, being meters above the ground. Such an experience would definitely last a lifetime. Cliff Diving originated in Hawaii thousands of years ago when the king asked his men to dive into the water from high cliffs without causing a splash, in order to prove their loyalty towards him. This sport has now become the rage and people from all over are flocking to get a taste of what it’s all about.

These are just a few of the many crazy adventure sports which are becoming popular by the day. Keep coming back to this space in order to learn of more crazy and wacky adventure sports you can try a hand at.

The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten -Sir Henry Royce

Sir Henry Royce, who along with Charles Rolls founded Rolls-Royce.

Much has been spoken about the close knit relationship between a Swift owner and his Swift. Now let’s look at a person who is living proof of everything we have spoken about.  

Mr. Narendar Singh, a 40 year old TCS executive, had pondered over the thought of buying a second car for quite sometime now. Being a Swift (petrol variant) owner already, his wife and kids urged him to explore his options, since the Indian automobile market today, offers one an array of cars to choose from.

On the insistence of his family he checked out various other hatchbacks in his desired segment and budget. But every car he saw and test drive lacked that special something which he was so familiar with. Some lacked space and some had poor mileage, all in all he couldn’t find a worthy counterpart for his Swift.

After lots of thought and contemplation, Mr. Singh made up his mind, and went ahead and booked another Swift (diesel variant) for his family. Owning two cars of the same model may sound ridiculous to some, but if you love and know your car inside out, it is a sensible and logical decision, as buying a car involves a lot of money, and nobody wants to buy the wrong car and regret it for years to come.

Mr. Singh is one of the many Swift owners who would never be happy driving anything else. When asked why he chose to buy another Swift instead of the numerous other options he exclaimed "On all counts, I found Swift better than the others at that price. Also, as a Swift owner, I am 100% satisfied with the car,"

Some men take good care of a car; others treat it like one of the family.

We’ve all heard of boys and their toys, it’s a commonly used phrase to describe how as a boy grows into a man, action figures make way for cars and other cool gadgets. However cars top the list, rarely would you meet a guy who isn’t into cars and who doesn’t already have a list of the top ten cars he wishes to own already prepared and thought through. The relationship of a man and his car is far beyond that of a person and an inanimate object, it’s a relationship that is based on love, respect and pride. As they say a man’s car reflects him as a person. For many, the Swift has proven to be that dream car and being the only car in the Indian market to ever win two ICOTY (Indian car of the year) awards, its no surprise why!

Take a look at one instance of a Swift owner talking about his swift with utmost pride and passion by writing a travelogue of a road trip he recently made in his car. This is what Mr. Deepak Kajal from New Delhi had to say after his first road trip in his prized swift.

“I quickly finished mywork in the evening and headed towards Mussoorie again as I was free for nexttwo days arose to surprise that my beast (my swift) climbed all the way in thethird gear, that showed the power my car possessed. I reached Mussoorie ataround 6 pm and again to my surprise one of mycousin(who was already there with his team trip) found me there. We simplybooked a room near Ghandhi chowk and next day enjoyed Kempty falls, Sir GeorgeEverest House (It was the most amazing point that thrilled both of us as the wayto reach there was full of pits, stones, sloppy and slippery but for my Swiftit was nothing) and the view from Everest View point was astonishing. We spendsome three hours sitting on the cliff must say that if you’re in Mussoorie youmust visit this place. Finally I started forDelhi at about 2130 hrs and reach home at about 0300 hrs in the early morning.The performance by my Swift VDI was superb and made me start planning roadtrips to other destinations like Manali and Rohtang.”

This experience shows us how a Swift never disappoints its owner and in this case, drives its owner to think about future plans to make and destinations to visit. This is one of the several reasons why the Swift is the most sought after car in its segment and will always be the epitome in its segment.
