You’d think that, even without signs or cones or big yellow flashing warning lights, you’d be able to tell if you were parking in wet concrete because, well, it’s wet. That wetness didn’t seem to stop a DeKalb County, Georgia, woman from doing so with her BMW, and she’s claiming there was no signage warning her the…

Before you pass too much judgement on the designer of this deeply bonkers automotive chimera, I want you to keep in mind one thing: he did exactly what the client asked for. The client wanted an unholy mashup between a Mustang and a Ram 4x4, and, well, that’s pretty much what he got, with a bit of something like an …

When you think “air force missions,” I imagine a lot of images pop into your head: jet fighters, missiles screaming through the air, Val Kilmer and Tom Cruise playing shirtless volleyball, and that stock footage of an aircraft being refueled in flight I bet are all in the mix. One thing that probably doesn’t come up…

By now we all know that the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is an 840 horsepower exercise in mechanical bonkersism, a drag car cajoled into the bare minimum of street legality, available for any dipshit with $85,000 and a functioning metabolism to own. That dipshit with $85K in disposable income will have to sign some…

There was a run of a driverless MTA bus in Brooklyn at about 12:30 am this morning. Instead of using the usual set of sensors, cameras, and computers to produce a driverless vehicle, this bus was rendered driverless when the driver exited the bus and forgot it was in neutral, sending it careening down the street,…

It’s been a sort of open secret for a few years now that you can hack the infotainment system on some 2014 and up Mazdas with the right software on a USB drive. What is new, though, is that now the software required to do this is freely available on GitHub. What’s also interesting is how this security flaw has been…

Hey! Did any of you go to the Electric Daisy Carnival the other night? It was at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, if that helps? Did you go with a car, but come back without one? Did you maybe, somehow, manage to park your car on a rock? If so, the Nevada Highway Patrol wants to help.

For the past 20 years, Goodwood’s Festival of Speed has shown what they call the ‘Central Feature’ in front of Goodwood House. Usually, it’s a colossal, dramatic sculpture, and it’s almost always breathtaking. This year, the feature will be based on Bernie Ecclestone, so get ready for something sublime.

I know that question up there may sound a little, um, unsavory, but it’s a pretty fundamental question that I’m not sure has ever really been asked: when it comes to dashboard controls, do you prefer to grab or twist or poke things on the dash, or do you prefer to manipulate parts of a stalk?

I think the fundamental, pureéd gruel-like blandness of the Dodge Diplomat is probably best summed up in how this promo movie describes it’s size: “between a compact and an intermediate!” Somehow, Dodge’s engineers have managed to invent a size of car more boring than “mid-sized.” Kudos, gentlemen.

I’m not really sure if I can let myself believe this, since I’ve been hurt so many times before. But here goes: Volkswagen’s Head Volk, Herbert Diess, told the UK’s Auto Express at the reveal of the new VW Polo that Volkswagen will actually produce a new version of the iconic Microbus, based on their ID Buzz concept…

Yesterday was Father’s Day, so, Prestone, one of the leading makers of coolants, antifreeze, radiator flushing compounds, and other car-juices, put up some sentimental pro-dad content on their social media accounts. There was just one problem: the car they chose was one of the few that has no need for the products…

In a very real way, I hope this video was staged. If it’s not, then this has to be the most crappily-installed wheel since the Enlightenment. Were they using lug nuts, or just shouting the word “LUG NUT” to each stud? That poor 240SX.

Have you ever screwed something up, and then realized that since you’re already boned, you may as well finish the job and just really, really screw things up so it’s a total shitshow? I know I have, and I suspect that was the line of thinking in this Mercedes’ ECU when it somehow caught on fire in the middle of a damn …

Just imagine you lived in a world where you were still you — a gearhead, devastatingly sexy, lover of cars, charming — but there were no interesting cars for you to buy, at all. What would you do? C0mplain? Punch a wall? If you were like this group of Soviet gearheads in the 1960s, you’d build your own damn car.

I’m sure anyone who’s ever jump-started a car, replaced a car battery, or built a small 12V DIY nipple-torture device has seen this: a powdery, white and blue and maybe sometimes green substance on battery terminals. What exactly is that crap? What causes it? Can you spread it on crackers and eat it? Let’s figure this…

As much as our readership likes to dislike Priuses, you have to admit that there is always going to be a need for a really efficient, environmentally-friendly car. The path the Prius took to these goals isn’t the only one, though. Volvo solved the same problems in a different and arguable much more fun way back in…

If you saw this old guy in his little white Focus driving by, it’s possible you may wonder why he has one of those sports-eyeglass headband things on. Does the poor fella lose his glasses a lot? No, motherfucker: he needs those because he headbangs to Metallica like an absolute madman.

The Chevrolet Corvair has to be one of my favorite American cars. It was bold and innovative, remaining America’s only real mass-produced rear-engined, air-cooled car. Oh, and also America’s only mass-produced horizontally-opposed engine. Michael McKeel must agree, because he has hundreds of them, which his neighbors…

China is planning to land people on the moon by 2036. If China does this right, then at least one of those people will be a woman. Objectively, it seems absurd that this needs an explanation, but we know what the world is like. So here’s why.
