I love driving fast on a racetrack at track days and such. It’s a blast to squeeze the most out of your car. I’m not sure I would ever want to race up Colorado’s Pikes Peak though.…

Yesterday, I mentioned that Honda had set a record in Europe for fuel economy while driving through a bunch of countries. VW didn’t want to be outdone, and has now announced that it has landed a Guinness World Record for fuel economy in the US.…

When Ford first introduced its F-150 Raptor truck, it was clear that this wasn’t just a truck aimed at rock crawling or mudding. Thanks to its power, the Raptor can offer impressive performance just about anywhere – even in the loose sand of the desert.…

I’ve been married for 20 years now. Not too long ago, I was in the local grocery store and happened to bump into an ex-girlfriend I dated right before my wife.…

Autonomous vehicle tech is coming no matter how you feel your car doing the driving instead of you. Last year, we talked about Cruise Automation and its aftermarket RP-1 Highway Autopilot system that will keep your car in the lane and safely behind traffic without you having to do it.…

Back in the early ’90s one of the coolest vehicles that GMC had ever produced, and perhaps ever has produced, was the Syclone truck. At first glance, the black truck appeared to be nothing more than your common lowered Sonoma mini truck popular in the day.…

One of the things I like to do when I am watching movies or TV shows that are based in other countries is look for cool cars and trucks that we don’t get here in the states.…
