Ohhh yes! Look, I’m not an EV enthusiast but this car might change my mind. I love the way it looks from every angle. Just needs a trapper keeper background to complete the look.
Lincoln is working on a body-on-frame Mercedes-Benz G-Class/Land Rover Range Rover-fighter for launch in the 2029-30 timeframe, sources tell Autoweek. The two-row Lincoln will ride on the body-on-frame platform that underpins the Ford Bronco, according to one of the sources, who drew the comparison with the Merc G-Wagen—which also makes the Range Rover another likely target.
@cars Bring back mini trucks! My 1990 ford ranger is everything a commuter should be. People do not need fast cars they need something reliable, fast enough to get you from point A to B, and a perfect sized bed to haul almost anything in your home. Driving is still a blast BECAUSE IT IS SLOW! If you have not driven a vehicle with less than 100hp then treat yourself to the joys of your nearest shitbox.
These little late 1960’s Honda S800 convertibles look wonderful, has anyone seen one driving around in America? I realize the parts are really hard to find, but this car would be a head-turner here.
Jan 27 (Reuters) - Sales of fully electric cars surpassed those of petrol-only vehicles in the European Union for the first time in December, data from the auto industry group ACEA showed on Tuesday, even as hybrids held onto the largest overall share of the market.
Toyota, Progressive Insurance, and a data analytics firm are now being accused of collecting detailed personal driving information without proper consent
Update: It’s handling much more predictably now. It seems the issue was likely due to the wheel speed sensors not knowing that the tires weren’t properly inflated due to an improper/lacking TPMS calibration. Since there aren’t actual pressure sensors in the tires this car has to make some assumptions that rely on having the tire pressure accurately set and then telling the car to reset it’s calibration.

I have posted here from time to time about my lowly Kia Soul from 2015. We’re currently at 91,450 or so in mileage. I just found out thanks to a helpful Valvoline tech that we’re burning oil at an accelerated rate. Apparently, my stupid behind doesn’t know how to properly check oil, because when I checked it 2 weeks ago it appeared to be full. However, yesterday the guy said the oil was barely registering on the dipstick. There’s absolutely no sign of leaks, so this mother freaking GDI engine has to be burning what’s missing.
The Camry-esque look at the front, and to an extent the rear, came second to the GR GT’s aerodynamics, which is the opposite way to how Toyota usually styles its cars. It’s built around a highly rigid aluminum frame—Toyota’s first, apparently—with carbon fiber for the hood, roof, and some other body panels to minimize weight. The automaker says that lowering the car’s center of gravity was a top priority, and weight balance and distribution also help explain the transaxle layout, where the car’s transmission is behind the cockpit and between the rear wheels.
Neurosurgeon analyses Waymo’s data on 100M miles of driverless travel, concludes that it’s dramatically, qualitatively safer (at least the way that Waymo does it). Says if this were a clinical trial they’d stop it because giving placebos would be unethical.
I need brake upgrades for a 2012 Honda pilot. The local twisty road is quite hilly and I can be hard enough on the brakes to get fade from the OE brakes. They seem to have shit themselves after a recent drive. I asked for pad recommendations and was told Hawk Performance, EBC Bluestuff, Porterfield r4-s, or akebono euro are good options. I was unable to find those for my car. If any internet stranger could find some in a size that fits, that would be awesome, but I would also be open to other suggestions. I also would like fluid and rotor recommendations. I don’t want drilled rotors, would consider slotted. I’m hoping to not dump tons of cash on this, as I’m trying to save for a better car as the long term plan. Thanks in advance!
I bought this truck used and it has aftermarket headlights I am fed up with. They look cool but constant issues with electronics and also the housing scratched so easily that it makes the truck look cheap.
In the last few years, car headlights seem to be much worse with glare. I don’t know if people no longer turn down their high beams, or if it’s raised trucks or aftermarket bulbs, or just shitty car design but it’s getting much tougher to see at night. And my teens complain more, so it’s not just me getting old
It’s easy to convince EDC people to buy EDC things. But how do you convince non-EDC folks to buy your product? Simple: Fear. The global “car escape tool market,” according to market research firm Data Insights Market, is valued at $500 this year, projected to grow 7% a year and
I’m going to be selling my car in the coming weeks as it’s in its sunset years and will be getting a new one. One wisdom I have though is around my dashcam. Obviously I’ll be taking it from my old car and putting it in my new one, but the thing is, it’s stuck to the windscreen with the M3 adhesive tape that came with it. I’ve looked online and removing it should be as simple as heating the adhesive strip with a hairdryer, but I was wondering, can I reuse the adhesive strip, or will I need to get another one? For context, it’s been stuck to my windscreen for around 6 months, so not sure what state the adhesive will be in.
On the same webpage we have an article saying EVsales are soring due to state incentives followed by one setting EV companies are laying off thousands with state tax credits having expired
I’ve been in this situation a few times where I have something hanging out the hatch of a car. Often, there isn’t really anything to hold the hatch down. But at slightly open positions like this, the handle for the hatch is perfectly oriented to clip a bungee cord on and hold it down.
Hi, has anyone compared these head to head? I like the idea that the Forester has an available manual transmission. The Mazda looks reliable and very fun to drive. The frontend/grille looks kinda stupid.
I keep seeing white crossovers and SUVs with this stupid matte black vinyl "hood stripe" looks more like a black tongue on the hood. It never continues to the roof or back. I've seen it on a few white Cherokees, a white blazer and just now, some small Toyota crossover. Is this some kind of trend or is more likely a local dealership trying to wring out more money from customers?
I'm thinking of picking up an OBD II scanner to check for codes. My car has some driving issues and maybe I can check for codes and work out a plan. I could take it to a mechanic but I don't have one I can trust yet.
...While the Focus left the lineup in 2018, Ford has continued to hang onto its RS fleet from the Performance Racing School. Now, however, the brand has decided that it’s time to clear out inventory and offer these hot hatches to the public...
I'm talking about a car that is like, a normal car. Not a sports car, not a classic car, I'm talking about a regular, practical, modern car for just driving around anywhere.
For me this was the car of the show. Several Corvettes including a few C8 Z06s, Lamborghinis, a few R35s, a couple R8s, a second gen Viper, and so many other cool cars and this was my favorite. Absolutely gorgeous!
Saw one of these as a kid and was shocked how short it is. My wife said the same thing standing next to this. It was in perfect condition as far as I could tell.
