Men and women differ on almost everything, and it turns out that carries over onto the road as well. Several weeks ago Edmunds' Inside Line released a list of which cars were mostly purchased by female drivers. Now it offered up what the most popular cars among men are, and there is quite a stark difference.

At the top of the female list was the practical Volvo S40, but men went a much different route. According to the blog, the vehicle with the highest percentage of male buyers is the flashy Ferrari 458 Italia. An astonishing 95.3 percent of these high-performance vehicles are bought by men, which is significantly higher than the next-closest vehicle, the BMW 1 Series M Coupe, which comes in at about 92 percent. The Audi R8, Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and Ferrari California also made the top five.

Not all of the vehicles that made the list were high-performance sports cars or luxurious German-made sedans. In fact, some classic American rides made their way onto the list. The GMC Sierra came in at number eight with about 87.5 percent of its buyers being men. Right behind it was the Ford F-Series, with an 87 percent male driving population. Rounding out the top 10 was the Corvette, with 86.9 of purchases going to men.

Whether you're male or female, New Jersey State Auto Auction is sure to have the ideal used car for you. Thanks to a wide variety of makes and models at affordable price, it's easy for consumers to come home with a vehicle that suits their needs. Additionally, each one is CARFAX certified so you know you're getting a reliable vehicle.

Not every consumer is a gearhead, and many may be unfamiliar with the different options they have when it comes to how a vehicle runs. One of the things consumers may not consider is the vehicle's drivetrain. Certain cars are available with rear-wheel drive (RWD) while others may be equipped with all-wheel drive (AWD) or, in far fewer vehicles, front-wheel drive (FWD). This defines which axle of the vehicle is doing the work to push the car forward. In the cases of rear- and front-wheel drive, only one axle is controlled by the engine, and the other just goes along for the ride.

Each setup offers unique advantages, but if you're unsure what the pro's and con's of each are, you may have a hard time discerning which is best for you. AWD and FWD vehicles are typically preferred by drivers who live in areas with adverse weather conditions. These provide better traction in the winter than RWD vehicles. AWD cars, with two driven axles, have much more traction than RWD and FWD models, making this setup ideal for harsh winters and rough terrain.

RWD provides more even weight distribution than AWD and FWD, since the driven axle is heavier than the other one, and this adds more support to the rear of the car to counteract the engine weight. However, heavy acceleration can be more dangerous in cars driven by the rear axle. It can result in oversteer and fishtailing, which is why many RWD vehicles feature traction control to minimize these issues.

Front-wheel drive vehicles can be dangerous when you have to slam on the brakes, as most of the vehicle's weight is in the front. This can affect the front tires as well, and result in a loss of traction when driving up steep hills.

These are just a few of the advantages and disadvantages of the different options. Regardless of which drivetrain a consumer wants, they will have plenty of options to choose from at New Jersey State Auto Auction. Plus, all of the used vehicles are CARFAX certified, so drivers know they're getting a reliable ride.

While high gas prices have led many motorists to downsize to a smaller car, some industry analysts say it's not as many as you might think. Some drivers are sticking with the same exact model they used to have because it will likely be more cost effective as manufacturers place an increased premium on high gas mileage, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Although improved mileage is one of the biggest reasons drivers are more likely to stay loyal to their current model, even if it's an SUV, there are other causes as well. In particular, experts say that back in 2008 when prices spiked, people downsized because they panicked. Today, however, drivers are more likely to be used to high gas prices and won't make impulsive decisions.

"After what we've all been through with the recession, people are much more informed about the complexities of the economy and therefore much less reactive to higher gas prices," Kit Yarrow, a professor of business and psychology at San Francisco's Golden Gate University, told the chronicle.

One look at the sales figures from February and March backs up analysts' assertions. According to the newspaper, smaller cars made up about 24 percent of overall car sales. While that's a bit more than the 2011 statistics, it's only by about 4 percent.

Whether you're looking to stick with the same model or downsize, New Jersey Auto Auction is sure to have the car you're looking for. With a wide variety of makes and models at affordable prices, there's a perfect car for everyone. Additionally, since each vehicle is CARFAX certified, you know you're getting a reliable product.

The conditions are right for a surge in auto sales this spring, and it looks like manufacturers are on pace to have their best year since 2008. Thanks to an improving stock market, more affordable cars and steady job growth, consumers are becoming more likely to get behind the wheel of a new car, AOL Autos reports.

For a clear picture of how well automakers are doing at the moment, you need look no further than Kia. The South Korean company posted its best month ever in March, selling 50,000 cars for the first time in its history, with the Optima and Sorento performing especially well.

"Kia is on a tear, and has had a tremendous surge in consideration on our website," AOL Autos Editor-in-Chief David Kiley told the website. "They have done everything right for a while–good provocative design like the Kia Soul, value pricing, increasing quality and engaging advertising to get people to notice,"

American manufacturers have also had a very successful spring so far. In particular, Ford has seen a surge in sales with fuel-efficient cars being especially. Specifically, the Focus enjoyed a 78 percent growth in sales in March, up to an all-time record of more than 28,500 units sold, according to the website.

The number of people heading out to buy new vehicles may be good news for drivers who are more interested in purchasing a used car. As people trade-in their older rides, there will be plenty of inventory available.

If you're interested in getting behind the wheel of a used car, New Jersey State Auto Auction is the place to go. With a wide variety of makes and models, there's something for everyone, and since all vehicles are CARFAX certified, you know you're getting a reliable vehicle.

In an effort to save money, many drivers have been trying to get the most out of their cars, but few people have taken it to the level that one Florida woman did. Rachel Veitch, 93, recently said goodbye to her beloved 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente after driving an astonishing 576,000 miles, Fox News reports.

Veitch has been somewhat of a celebrity over the years for her loyalty to one car. It outlasted three of her marriages and she likely would have stayed behind the wheel had age-related macular degeneration not gotten in the way. After running a red light and having difficulty reading the newspaper, she realized it might be time for her to retire her beloved car for good.

There's no word on what's next for the famous car. It's slated to appear at an antique car show in the summer, and Veitch is considering selling it to Tonight Show host Jay Leno, an avid car collector. There's no particular secret to how she managed to drive the car so long other than simply treating it well.

"When I buy gas, I write down the mileage, the date and how many miles per gallon I got," she told the news source in an interview in 2009. "I've never been a destructive person and I've just taken care of everything, except my husbands."

While reaching the half-million mile mark may be unrealistic for the everyday driver, there are ways to make sure your car runs for as long as possible. A regular visit to New Jersey State Auto Auction's Total Car Care center in Jersey City is one such way. By having regular tuneups and staying on top of maintenence, you'll be sure to drive your car to 100,000 miles and beyond.
