There is one of these in Sky Blue that regularly commutes to the building next to the one I work at, in fact I saw it pulling in this morning! The article was the missing piece of the puzzle - I tried searching this thing to identify it but all I kept finding were the Ocean models.... Read more

Every car lover should be for public transit because y’know what happens when people have alternatives for transit? They don’t drive! That means less traffic and less road wear for you, the true petrol-head, to safely drive your fun car as an enthusiast! Get people who hate and/or suck at driving off the road so we Read more

Friendly neighborhood IP attorney here - Ford files for design patent protection of different aspects of their vehicle design frequently. For example, their most recently issued design patent is for a lower grille that looks like the grille on the current gen mustang. Also, they won a decision against the Automotive Read more

But I am now 71, retired, live in the middle of San Francisco now and don’t currently own a vehicle. Frankly, something like this is about the only sort car (excluding handmade fantasies Read more

If all we’re talking is a pressure washer and some 2x4's I suggest something like the Bronco Sport.  The cargo area is not carpeted, so easy cleanout, and with the flip up rear glass, you can carry way more than you’d expect.  I’ve hauled a dozen 12 ft pieces of floor base trim home from Lowe’s in mine.  Only stuck Read more
