We’re just at the tipping point of what could be the worst recession in American history. In the last six months we’ve seen the collapse of industry in the U.S. with millions unemployed, housing and car payments missed in record numbers, and more Americans than ever facing financial crisis. By far the poorest…

Bloomberg did a roundup on the discontinuations in the US or straight up deaths of various small cars, all of which are precious, and because that is already well-covered ground at this website instead of rehashing I would like to highlight a stat from the story that made me realize I had little idea how bad it’s…

Just last month, we told you about a man from Florida crashing the brand new Lamborghini Huracan he bought with funds stolen from the Paycheck Protection Program. A criminal mastermind from Texas pulled off a similar scam, only he spent his money on not just a Lamborghini Urus, but a 2020 Ford F-350 as well.

Back in January of 2019, Cadillac’s big “one more thing” at the Detroit reveal of the 2020 Cadillac XT6 was news that an all-new, all-electric Cadillac crossover was coming in a few short years. GM is taking another step towards the luxury EV space against Tesla with the Cadillac Lyriq, but not until 2022.

GM has gone nostalgia-macho with its short-term EV plans, reviving the once-dead Hummer brand as an all-electric pickup truck with absurd performance figures. Predictably, Jeep is also inevitably getting into the EV game, except Jeep’s plans sound very... European.

I’ve been having a hard time with my Volkswagen lately. A few months back the engine decided to relieve itself of all of its oil, and my efforts to fix the problem have been unsatisfactory. It felt like the car was getting away from me. Then I fixed the trunk release cable.

GoPro has been the go-to in action cameras basically since there have been action cameras. You have one, I have one, we all have one. The company initially launched a new light attachment for its Hero line of cameras, but figured even people without cameras needed a good flashlight. So, that’s why the GoPro Zeus Mini…

At the 1975 Spanish Grand Prix, a race shortened by tragedy, Lella Lombardi became the first woman to ever score points in Formula One. She is one of two female drivers to have started a race and one of five to have entered. Today, 45 years later, she still remains the most successful woman to ever contest the series.

The Rubicon Trail has been Jeep territory for years now, at least as far as American off-roading enthusiasts are concerned. When it decided to take on the Jeep Wrangler with the all-new 2020 Ford Bronco, Ford knew this was a test it’d eventually have to pass—and it appears it just did.

One of the few benefits of this miserable pandemic is that, thanks to pervasive video conferencing from people’s homes, we all get to voyeuristically peek into strangers and colleagues’ homes, scrutinizing all the little details and wondering what’s in all those unmarked jars on the windowsill. It’s strangely…

Matthew has recently encountered some professional and personal changes, and he is going to relocate from NYC to LA to “reboot” his life. He wants something fun and unique that is suitable for California weather. What car should he buy?

The BMW M2 CS came out about a year ago as the hot version’s hot version of the Bavarian automaker’s quintessential smallish performance luxury vehicle. Yesterday, BMW posted a huge album of pictures the Misano Blue car taken at Sachsenring. Neat!

Toyota is still making lots of money, Dieselgate is neverending, and AAA says that modern driving assistance tech is bad. That and more in The Morning Shift for August 6, 2020.

Though not common anymore, back in the mid-’80s “Topazzin’” was known as the practice of driving into oncoming traffic at speeds of up to 34 MPH while laying on the horn and sobbing. In a Ford Topaz (Mercury in US markets). It was illegal, of course, but also deeply embarrassing.

With Mercedes seemingly abandoning the coupé market here in the U.S., we’re taking the opportunity to look at a two-door that’s already here. Today’s Good Buy or Goodbye 300CE is an example of how MB did coupés right. Let’s just see how right its price might be.

This is how the sedan ends. Not with a bang, but with a whimper. This week Ford phased out the last remaining blue oval-branded sedan. At its height in 2014, the Fusion moved over 300,000 units, but Ford only managed to push about 60,000 units out the door in the first half of 2020. Obviously there are extenuating…
