Schroeder-Manatee Ranchâs first major foray into Sarasota County â Waterside at Lakewood Ranch â will be open for business with two homebuilders offering houses for sale. SMR also will finalize plans for the projectâs downtown area as well.
I drive an old (but reliable) 1999 Honda Accord. I'm due with my first child in a few months, and I wasn't planning to get a new car. I've realized, though, that my car is so old that it doesn't have the LATCH system introduced in 2002. Does anyone else drive an old car and have advice about the best car seat to buy for traditional seat belt installation? I was looking at the Chicco Keyfit or Graco SnugRide, but would consider others.

The German auto supplier Bosch developed the first system, and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7-series were the first cars to use the new safety and regulatory devices. It's been more than a decade since electronic stability control was first introduced, and it goes by many names, depending on the company. Audi calls it the Electronic Stability Program, or ESP; at Ford, it goes by Advance Trac.
