This weekend marks a full year since I began holding down the fort on Sundays around these parts. It’s also my last weekend on the job before I start law school next month, so I wanted to say thank you to all of you for putting up with my blather.

Why wait for a Lada Niva reboot when the old one is still for sale?

Not unlike the producers and distributors of No Time To Die, Mulan, and The French Dispatch, the team at Genesis is worried about a launch botched by the Coronavirus pandemic and they’re holding back the 2021 GV80 crossover and redesigned 2021 G80 sedan until later this year.

We’ve been waiting on this TVR revival for a while. first, there was one delay. Then another. Followed by yet another. For a company that has long made a name for itself by building cars for people that prefer to fly by the seat of their pants, I suppose it shouldn’t be a surprise that the firm’s management seems to…

Back to work, back to work. If the Mack Mid-liner is going to be Renault’s Club of Four ambassador to the mighty American truck market, it better be a leader. Good thing it’s built to be one.

It’s apparently the “summer of the road trip,” because that’s our only travel option. And for a lot of people, this means driving somewhere (likely remote) and renting a house or apartment from Airbnb, VRBO or another home-share app. Ideally, you’d be traveling with the people in your “quarantine bubble,” but given…

I just moved to a new neighborhood and down the street is someone who street-parks their Ural sidecar motorcycle. I haven’t snagged my own picture of it yet, but it’s a neighborhood fixture and it got me thinking: Where is that electric Ural we were teased with a few years back and why can’t I buy one yet?

You all know that I have a thing for the Italian coachbuilders. Those little workshops where trained metalworkers lovingly beat their soul into steel body panels, where craftsmen with generations of experience behind them painstakingly varnish hand-cut wood trim. Pininfarina, Zagato, Touring Superleggera. All of them…

It’s all good and well that the Ford Mustang Mach-E 1400 can create tremendous clouds of tire smoke when thrown around Ford’s proving grounds. That’s not too hard to do. But there’s a better way to get to know whether all that high-torque sorcery going on in that car means anything at all. That way is hill climbing.

I know it’s been nearly two weeks since we first got a reimagined Ford Bronco to complement the JL Jeep Wrangler on mall parking lots in left lanes on rutted off-roading trails, but there’s one thing I can’t stop thinking about: The reborn Chevy Blazer that could have been. And this Sunset Gold and white-roofed 1974…

Cities are struggling in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Most were already operating on razor-thin margins, or even in the red when the illness came through and blew a giant hole in already shaky budgets. But where some see challenges, others see opportunities. A coalition of mayors and urban leaders from all over…

I’m fully aware that I have a basement full of crap, and, yes, to many eyes, my collection of crap really may be analogous to a firm, healthy turd, but if I accept this unpleasant analogy, then I’d have to say one of the most golden, gleaming kernels of corn in that turd would have to be the machine I want to show you…

East Coast Defender, a Florida company that stuffs V8s and lots of leather into old British trucks, has just set a new record for most-square-inches-of-sunroof on a car. I mean, it has to have, right? Look at all that glass!
