So you're cruising along, driving down a major downtown road, and all of a sudden, BAM! You're sitting behind a horse-drawn carriage, overhearing little snippets about how Ben Franklin didn't actually get struck by lightning when he did his key experiment, but he wishes he did, because then he wouldn't have to wait in…

We're all gluttons for punishment here.

Horsepower is important to men, which helps explain why Lamborghini has the highest proportion of male buyers of any brand, at nearly 95 percent, according to the car shopping site Edmunds.com.

*Phew* That makes sense. For a second there I thought it might've been placed on a car in a precarious fashion and then promptly crashed, sending the diamond free of its automotive bonds and into the hands of a track official. But that would just be crazy.

The tires alone in this picture are worth over $100,000. Think about it, in Jalop currency that'd be 4 new Miatas.

We all know the real reason everyone was staring. What was a judge from Texas doing in such a sissy car?

And then you click away, dejected, knowing that maybe you would've bought this car, if only the seller wasn't currently pushing a 7 on the highly scientific "One to John Hinckley Jr. Scale of Crazy."

About two weeks ago, a woman came in looking to buy a 2014 Corolla. Upon arriving at our store, she frantically asked the receptionist where the bathroom was. She was shown where it was and she scurried off to it. After not appearing for several minutes, the receptionist went in to find her undressed and washing…

Unfortunately, it gets even more complicated than that! After going through the process of turbocharging and supercharging this engine, Volvo decided to mate it to a plug-in hybrid drivetrain. So the new XC90 "T8" uses a 2.0-liter turbocharged supercharged plug-in hybrid 4-cylinder that makes an almost insane 400…

"I was in the process of trying to get out from under my wife's house that I married in to, so I was looking to cut costs and get out of my 300 SRT-8 and into a KIA SOUL (I needed something small, cheap and could carry a Great Dane)!
