Prom 2010 Limousines

It's a New Year and time to seriously start thinking about Prom Limousines. We sell out quickly, so it's always best to reserve your Prom Limo early. Some have their Limos already chosen for Prom, some even have reserved their Prom Limos already.
This year, the most popular Prom Limo will be the Chrysler 300, in either white or black. The Chrysler 300 Limo can hold up to 12 passenger in it's biggest stretched out version. The Chrysler Limousines come decked out with the most modern of interiors.
For the bigger groups, the Escalade Limo is really popular. Just as classy as it's SUV street version, the Escalade Limo is built to impress. These limos can hold up to 20 passengers and in NYC they are becoming quite the rage amongst teenage Prom goers. The white Escalade Limo always makes a statement. These limos are modern and comfortable. You can expect the full treatment in an Escalade limo, fiber optic lighting, DVD and CD audio systems are the norm.
We'll be offering 2 hours free over the standard 10 hour reservation. This offer NYC Prom goers a great value for their money. But you have to reserve early, so you don't miss out on your dream Prom Limo.

NY State and City Limousine Tax

Starting June 1st, 2009 New York State has imposed a sales tax of 8.375% on all limousines, vans and sedans which can carry more than 14 people.
New York limo companies where given no more than 3 weeks notice of the change, and it will have a big impact on the limo business in New York State and City. We are still reeling, trying to find all the details of the tax and how to properly charge and account for it. Believe it or not, a tax such as this is not something that a business can easily adjust to. Sales reps now have to be aware of what rides are taxable, back office staff needs to account for and report the tax collected. It is a big imposition to small companies; most small limo companies don't even want to deal with the hassles of credit cards let alone collecting taxes.
Already customers are balking at an added 8 cents on the dollar. Since the tax is only on vehicles of 14 passengers or less, we may see a rise in SUV limos which can hold over 14 and still provide a luxurious ride. The tax is also hitting vans and sedans, which will have an impact on the corporate market. A ride to a NYC airport in a sedan or limo will now cost 8% more. The tax is only imposed on rides that start and end in NY, so a ride to Newark from NYC wont be taxable. It's actually a very confusing tax law.
Party and Limo buses as well as charter buses are exempt from the tax, so we are expecting to see a rise in the party bus market in NYC.

NYC Limousine Services, Bodygaurds for the Executives on the go

With the economy what it is, the Executives and CEO's are quickly becoming the scape goats. It could start to get dangerous for them soon, the furor caused by the AIG bonuses has even lead some to make serious threats of bodily harm towards CEO's and other executives.
What could be better at this time than Body guarded Limousine services. It's probably bad enough for any CEO to be caught getting out of limo these days, but if he is he'd better have some protection. The fact is that the corporate limousine and sedan market hasn't seen that much of a drop off in NYC leads us to believe that the Wall Streeter's and high powered types may not be learning their lesson. What would congress or the taxpayer think when they see the CEO of a debt ridden company jumping out of his fancy limo? Probably wouldn't want that picture getting out on CNN.
With the mood of the nation and the fact that actual threats have been made, it's a good idea to opt for the Bodyguard. Most NYC Executive travel and limousine services can provide for an additional fee a bodyguard or security personnel. If you look hard enough you may even be able to find a secure vehicle, maybe some bullet proof glass will help.
If thing don't change in this country, we could be looking at a whole lot of angry folks wielding pitch forks. Don't be the CEO without the body guarded limo.

NYC Events, Guitar Hero Saturday in New York


From what I hear, Guitar Hero is one of the hottest video games out there. I'm a little too old to play video games these days, and if I do play a video game GTA is good; at least you get to kill people. I digress, but what Ive heard from both the old and young is that Guitar Hero is a fun game for everyone. Most people that start off not interested in Guitar Hero are the ones that wined up playing for hours.
This weekend,at Ochi's Lounge in Manhattan,the first ever Guitar Hero Saturday is being held.Enjoy great food and drink at Ochi's while watching the crowds try their hand at Guitar Hero. Whether you like to play or not, it really sounds like fun. Even if you're not playing, it has got to be amusing watching all the Air Guitar Heroes playing their favorite tunes. And for those brave enough to take the Guitar Hero stage at Ochi's this Saturday, you can challenge the audience as well as the in house comedians.
Weekends in Manhattan are usually a traffic nightmare, and getting there from the out boroughs can be even worse. For a large group a Party Bus Rental is the best choice. From 18 to 50 Passengers, the Party Bus can hold even the largest group.
