The pandemic is fueling an online shopping boom. Package volumes are hitting record levels for couriers like FedEx and UPS. There are so many packages to deliver the companies can’t get enough vehicles to deliver them.

Over the past few weeks we looked at tools you can use to find lost bolts and tools to help you remove rounded bolts. This week’s tools, universal joint sockets, help you turn fasteners tight spaces, but they’re obviously not going to handle as much torque as a standard socket.

When I bought my holy grail Volkswagen Passat W8 manual there was one thought constantly hanging over my head: “Winter is coming.” The sleeper of a sedan has some pressing issues, like a misfire, and annoyances like a front passenger door that’s entirely the wrong color. However, the most important issue to me is…

Not every automotive innovation needs to be some grand, world-changing bit of genius. Sometimes, an incredibly useful and life-improving innovation can be very simple, even as simple as, say, four lights and a little drawing of a car. The innovation I’m talking about is the little display on a car’s dashboard that…

The school of hard knocks never gives out a diploma. You’re never done learning things the hard way if you’re an idiot like me. I recently took a class on what happens when you fail to plan ahead and while I definitely learned something, it was probably something I should have already known to begin with. Anyway, this…

Kelly has been working and going to school full time for the past four years. She will soon graduate with her doctorate degree and score a healthy salary. She wants to upgrade her Subaru to something a bit faster with all-wheel-drive. What car should she buy?

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! As you know the holiday is sometimes called “Turkey Day” colloquially, since that bird is the one most often eaten (beating out emu) and it just sounds better than “Ham Day.” Super-sleuth readers likely know there’s a country called Turkey, too, and they build cars, so I like to highlight…

We’ve all had bad days behind the wheel. Maybe your project car breaks down miles from home, or maybe you get into a little fender bender. But a man from Northampton, Northamptonshire, England is here to challenge all of our bad car days. He managed to get his Renault Megane impounded a mere 30 seconds after…

Ferrari unveiled the 488 GT Modificata today, a car that has the suspension from the 488 GTE and the anti-lock braking system from the 488 GT3. It contains a twin-turbo V8 that makes 700 horsepower. The Ferrari 488 GT Modficata is also exclusively for the track.

Another week has passed and that means another week of sweet cars found online that I wish I could own. I like finding cheap used cars that can either be daily driven right away or daily driven after minor work. Over the past couple of years I’ve turned it into a bit of a skill.

People can get really fixated about certain details on their cars, can’t they? Details like roof retention. Some people just absolutely lose their pickles if one roof happens to unexpectedly fly off their car, like what happened to a Tesla Model Y last month. If you’re a real stickler for your roof staying on the…

The 992 GT3 is nearly upon us. In anticipation, Porsche released a handful of images of a preproduction version of the next track-bred 911, and well, would you take a gander at that rear wing?

For many car enthusiasts across the country, the holidays can be a challenging time. It’s cold, the roads are salty and you don’t want your sweet ride to rust. But you can’t just cancel being a car enthusiast during this time. The love of cars lives inside all of us no matter the season.

A new report indicates Brexit could be bad, hood ornament history, and Tesla has some new recalls. All that and more in The Morning Shift for November 25, 2020.
