Things that I wish I knew the first time I bought a car. Buying a new or new to you car? Here are a few things to know before you head into a dealership.

NY mob boss John Gotti's mansion sits abandoned in Old Westbury with many possessions still inside. The Gotti compound boasts a main house, a pool/guest house, a garage, a horse stable with an unfinished in-law apartment, an overgrown basketball court, and a triple-level hot tub/pool/swim-up bar. This was the mansion that Gotti's daughter Victoria called home with her 3 sons John, Carmine, and Frank. They filmed the reality show "Growing Up Gotti" here for 3 seasons in 2004 and 2005. After the feds raided the mansion in 2016, it has laid dormant with a lot of possessions left behind. What trespassers found was something no one expected. A hidden room behind a built-in bookshelf.

Soon there will be another option to get around the Capital Region. This next venture for the Capital District Transportation Authority (CDTA) is called Drive. This is a new ride-share program that will allow you to use a car in the Capital Region 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The program is slated to begin in May or June of this year with a fleet of 6 cars to start.

We all checked out the Daytona 500 yesterday, didn't we? If so or if not, here's a gallery of the race.
