A hollow knocking sound coming from the back of my car going over bumps turned out to be bad sway bar end link bushings. Basically, the bar would rattle. When I took it to the dealer, I said “I don’t know much about suspensions but I know its not supposed to sound like that”

If the (older) car whines when you turn, there’s a good chance you need power steering fluid... and possibly have a leak.

A louder exhaust or one that sounds closer to you in general is usually indicative of an exhaust leak.

If Porsche was smart, they would make the car supercharger compatible, leveraging Tesla’s open patents and network. Partnering on the continued building of the network eliminates Porsches need to build their own. If electric cars are the way of the future, the infrastructure needs to be built. It’s time the automakers…

The Ford Mustang: Due to the sheer size of the aftermarket support, there are upgrades that range from needing a screw driver to full engine rebuilds. In addition, there’s always someone who knows the answer to your question.... and a second guy to tell the first guy he is wrong.

I actually was not sure where you were going with this when I first started reading the article. By the end, I was smiling for you. I wish you many smiles with her. The day the smile goes away is the day you can sell her... I say the same thing about my Mustang (This year has been trying :-( )

Any chance this “FCA won’t survive without a merger” talk is just negotiating tactic for the UAW contract talks?

The drowsy driver shut-off. My grandmothers Fusion has an alarm that will chime if the lane departure sensors detect that you are crossing over the lines too much. It shows a picture of a cup of coffee and recommends you stop. However, this would go one step further monitoring your eyelid blink times. At some point,…

Not a car but I’m going to go with the 2003-2006 Lincoln Navigator. It was designed to be simple but luxurious. It doesn’t scream to be looked at. As such, it doesn’t feel like it was just a trend even ten years later. Personally, I think it has aged better than the 2007- current design.

I, unlike many on the internet appreciate the clarification. I was more than likely referring to the ‘55 and earlier Corvette which, according to wikipedia, had a 0-60 of 8.5 seconds which would’ve been comparable to a ‘55-’56 Thunderbird. However, another wikipedia search makes no mention of the 0-60 times, instead…

It sounds like the movie Down Periscope was right. A diesel sub can trick a nuclear navy.

I was waiting for this to be posted. I think your wrong (Full disclosure: I own one). The original Thunderbird was designed as a personal coupe, a GT, a cruiser. It just so happened to be able to out-accelerate a Chevy Corvette from the same time period but it was never really built as a sports car. There were no…

I would have to say the Mitsuoka Galue S50 Limo. there is a difference between capturing the stately elegance of cars from the 1920’s and 1930’s and just slapping a grill on the front of a bubbly modern car. It doesn’t work. The grill isn’t the only thing that makes a Rolls Royce a Rolls Royce

I’m sure this has been mentioned already but I really really want a C4 Corvette. Long before I was a Mustang fan, all I ever wanted was a Corvette.... Then Chevy made the C5 and my 9 year old self hated it. I thought the ass was too big. The early years of this generation weren’t all that great but at the end of the…

Spec sheet and performance capabilities aside, I was able to hear one start up and rev for the first time this weekend at the americanmuscle.com Mustang show... Humnity needs the sound of a ShelbyGT350R in their life.

I think a first Gen Porsche Boxster would drive a Porsche 911... just to see what it would feel like to be a real Porsche.

I truly believe more cars need power moving pedals. Putting drivers in the correct position with their arms and torso is so important in terms of safety and even driver visibility. I can’t tell you how scared I am for people when I see them less than 12” from the steering wheel (especially now with all of these…

I was a huge Motor Trend /Car and Driver buff at the time. Both magazines loved the car when it came out, pitting it against, and declaring it the winner in tests against the BMW 3-series. This especially blew my mind and I always felt Car and Driver hated Fords. Still I remember everyone loving the car.

People think that cars are the only thing I want to talk about. I may be well-informed on the topic of automobiles but I am also able to hold a conversation on a variety of other topics. I’m more than that as a person.

For a second, I was like “Heyyyy!!” Then I remembered I have a Goatee.
