Fall is a great time of year to go hiking. The weather is cool, there aren't as many bugs as in the summer, and there is beautiful foliage to look at. The Salina, Kansas, area has many places to hike with trails for all experience levels. Here are some of the best places for a fall hike in Salina. more Salina Levee Trail The Salina Levee Trail is a 4.8-mile trail that makes its way along the flood control levee on the west bank of the Smoky Hill River. You can park at the Bill Burke Sports Complex or Oxbow Park on McAdams Road. There is also access to the trail from the Salina Soccer Complex on East Magnolia Road. This trail provides views of the river, and it connects to several local parks along the way. You can also view part of downtown Salina. If you want to shorten your hike and just walk a portion of the trail, start at Bill Burke and hike to Magnolia for 2.25 miles. Alternatively, you can start at East Magnolia Road and head over to East Schilling Road for a quick 1-mile hike. Marquette Pioneer Trail Marquette, Kansas, is not far from Salina and is home to the Marquette Pioneer Trail. This trail features asphalt millings and runs along an old railroad corridor for 2.8 miles. It also connects to the Wolverine Loop nature trail which loops around a local sports complex, which you can take if you want to expand your hike. To get started, park at the sports complex on Harold Street. This is an easy hike or walk with mostly flat surfaces and crushed stone, making it accessible for almost any fitness level. Lakewood Park Trails The Lakewood Park trails offer a variety of hiking experiences. The trails work their way around an old sandpit and feature woodlands, some prairies, and even water features with an ag-line surface that is solid and simple to walk on.

Hike up the hill and take the loop trail that brings you to the river overlook for some beautiful views of the Smoky Hill river gorge. The trails at Indian Rock Park are well-marked right on the ground to help guide you along, and there are restrooms at the park for your convenience. These are a few of the best places for a fall hike in and around the Salina area. Whether you want to spend the day out on the trail or just make it a quick one, there is something for everyone.

Drag racing has a long history in the U.S. A big part of that history is the rebuilding of production cars into drag racers. Many drivers and race teams would purchase a stock vehicle from a dealer. Then, the team would almost completely dismantle the car taking out all of the nonessential components. The teams would then rebuild it using some of the parts that they purchased alongside other parts that they acquired from other dealers. Finally, the team would tune the car to perfection. Dodge wants to get in on the fun and build its own drag racer. The Dodge Demon is the first factor built street legal drag racer, and it is making a big impression in the racing industry. Are you ready for the Demon? more Finally, a Street Legal Production Racer The biggest problem with drag racing is that it used to require two or more separate vehicles to participate. The racer can be entered into closed track races, but they were almost never allowed on normal roads. Dragsters have different setups that do not make them agile or safe enough for regular street driving. So, racers needed a separate vehicle to tow the racer to and from the track. The Dodge Demon is street legal, meaning that it can drive on regular roads provided that it has the right tires. Fortunately, all Demons come with a replacement pair of rear tires so that it can drive on regular roads legally. You Pay Just for What You Need One of the biggest benefits to getting a Dodge Demon is that Dodge will strip most of it for you. Racing crews often spent a lot of money and time on equipment that they eventually removed from their vehicles. In drag racing, weight makes a huge difference in lap times. Dodge will help you by stripping the Demon down to its essentials. That way, you are only paying for what you need, and you can save hours of prep time that would have been used to strip the car. Higher Performance from the Start Since the Demon is prepped and built to higher performance specifications, your crew will start with a much better car. Further modifications are still possible to bring it up to your performance standards. However, it is possible to compete with the Dodge Demon with the factory systems and settings. This will make a big difference in your performance since any modifications that you make will start from a higher starting point. You could get excessively high-performance numbers if you know what you are doing. Since the Dodge Demon was built to be a legal driving car, you will save a lot of money on towing and prep equipment. This translates to more time and resources to put into your modifications. Ultimately, the Dodge Demon could radically change the way that drag racers are acquired and designed. If it is possible to make one in a factory that can handle both normal driving and racing, then there may be a significant shift in the industry where more racers are made for streets as well. Either way, the Dodge Demon is best understood by experiencing it yourself at a nearby Dodge dealer.

Unlike many other things that you own, your car is likely to retain some of its value when you are ready to get a new one. Many people replace their cars while they still have plenty of life in them that someone else can take advantage of. Trading in your car is a great way to capitalize on its remaining value and leverage it to your advantage. That way, replacing your car will cost you less in the long-term. There are specific things that you can do to increase the value of your car when you trade it in. If you are looking to trade-in your car, here are four ways to maximize your car's trade-in value. more Know the Value of Your Car Most people run into trouble when trading in their cars because they don't understand what the car is worth. Cars depreciate over time, but there are resources like Kelley Blue Book that can tell you what your car might be worth. Also, do your research to see what other people are getting for similar cars. This will help you negotiate a better price for your vehicle and know when you are being undersold. Maintain Your Car Better Cars quickly lose value when repairs and maintenance are not managed. Car dealers drop trade-in value prices by the amount that it would cost to do repairs and bring a trade-in up to its standards. So, make sure that your car is in great condition by maintaining it well while you have it. This will let you ask for more since it will cost the dealer less to sell it. Shop Around You can trade in your car without buying a new one from the same dealer. You can shop your car to multiple dealers to see which one will give you the best offer for it. This can also help you get more for your car because the dealer is not trying to maximize the profit on a new car sale while keeping the trade in value low. Sell at the Right Time and Place There is a right time and place to sell each vehicle. You need to understand where and when that is to get the best value for your vehicle. Trading in a much older vehicle is not a good idea later in the year because the next model years will be available. Fewer people will be willing to pay for a car that is much older. Instead, wait until the beginning or middle of the year when everyone who bought new cars is no longer shopping. Summer is a great time for this, as students will be looking for back-to-school cars. If you understand the market, you'll be able to understand what salespeople are thinking when they offer you deals for your car. This will help you find the best deal for your trade-in. Trading in a used car does not have to be difficult. It just requires research and planning. Above all else, make sure your car is in good condition. The less a dealer has to do to it to resell it at a higher price, the more the dealer can offer you for your trade-in.

Central Kansas isn't the most cosmopolitan part of the United States, and it's true that Salina is a great place to find steaks, burgers, and American cuisine. However, America is a nation of immigrants and that's just as true of Salina as it is about the rest of the country. If you want to dine out at a place with an international flavor, you can stop by any of the spots below. more Martinelli's Little Italy Martinelli's Little Italy sits at the corner where Walnut Street meets South Santa Fe Avenue. The restaurant combines a relaxed atmosphere with fine dishes made in an authentically Italian way starting with the handmade sauces and ending with the carefully selected wine list. Toasted ravioli appetizers can start off your meal of chicken or steak, or you can try something different and get a St. Louis-style pizza with an ultra-thin crust packed to the edge with toppings. Martinelli's also has a gluten-free menu and desserts worth leaving room for. Jalisco Mexican Restaurant There are several Mexican places in Salina, but the best of the bunch would probably have to be Jalisco. The restaurant is just off the Old Highway on Market Place between West Key Avenue and Belmont Boulevard. The atmosphere isn't as amazing as it could be, but the menu offers a very nice variety of authentic Mexican food with great portions for the price. Even the complimentary salsa has a good taste, and the margaritas are a great value. Seoul USA Korean Restaurant There's more to Asian food than Chinese dishes, and Seoul USA proves it for the people of Salina. You'll find this surprising spot just south of where West Crawford Street and South Broadway Boulevard meet, and on the menu you'll find kimchi, tofu pancakes, bibimbab stir fry, curry rice, and the Seoul Sampler, a dish that combines a bit of every meat the restaurant offers. All the tofu options make Seoul USA a great choice for vegans and vegetarians, and they roll out a lunch buffet every day for big eaters. Joselyn's Philippine Kitchen Also known as the Pinoy Po Tayo Café, Joselyn's Philippine Kitchen is a small restaurant that sits on South Santa Fe Avenue and East Jewell Avenue. The small building makes it a better place for takeout than for eating in, but it's a great place to eat if you're looking for food that sounds like your usual East Asian fare but tastes completely different. The egg rolls are especially delicious and the meat skewers have such a thick layer of sauce you'll think it came from an American barbecue place. Every American city over a certain size has people who came from other countries, and many of them are happy to share the flavors of home with locals who love variety. So if you live in Salina or you find yourself passing through the central plains of Kansas, be sure to take some time and stop by one of the international restaurants that can add a little extra spice to your life.

The 2017 Dodge Charger is a modern-day muscle car, a powerhouse with eight trim levels to choose from and one of the most powerful engines anywhere in the supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat. But power and performance isn't all the Charger has going for it: the sedan also comes with plenty of high-tech features inside and out that do much more than an old 60s muscle car ever could. more The Infotainment System The 2017 Charger has an available 8.4-inch touch screen that runs the most up-to-date version of Uconnect.

This system works with HD Radio, and you also get a complimentary year of SiriusXM Radio. The models that come with a navigation system also get five years of SiriusXM Traffic and Travel Link. Digital Cluster Display Standard on every 2017 Charger is a seven-inch color driver information digital cluster display. This display sits between the car's speedometer and tachometer and offers customization options so you can see the information you want to know or flip through several screens to get a better idea of how your Charger is doing. At the same time, the bold red and black color scheme perfectly matches the attitude and colors of the modern Dodge brand. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop This advanced system uses a camera and laser range-finder to detect vehicles in front of you and keep up a certain follow distance you set when you activate cruise control. This means the cruise control will automatically slow down when traffic slows down and speed up to your set speed when the road ahead is clear. Since the version on the Charger has a Stop mode, the adaptive cruise control can slow down all the way to a complete stop if traffic gets congested enough, although you'll have to touch the gas pedal when traffic starts moving again. Keyless Enter 'n Go Keyless systems are becoming more and more common thanks to how convenient they are. The Keyless Enter 'n Go system lets you keep your key fob in your pocket or purse, because as soon as you pull on door handle the Charger will detect that the key fob is near and unlock the door just in time for you to open it. This system also includes the Charger's push-button starter, because all you need to do to turn over the engine is press the brake pedal and push the start button, without inserting a key in the ignition. The 2017 Dodge Charger combines some of the most powerful engines ever dropped into a Dodge chassis with all the modern technology features you'd expect from a vehicle produced in the current year. With high-tech options that cover convenience, information, entertainment, and even a little self-driving technology, there's no doubt that the 2017 Charger is the muscle car of the future.
