Have a gander at this truck towing a truck towing a truck towing a dump-truck hauling a Toyota Rav4. Many of us have probably seen tractor-units towing other tractor-units, but it’s the RAV4 in the dump-bed that puts this setup squarely in the “bizarre” category.

Post-Rennsport Reunion thought; Have we reached peak Porsche yet? It seems like the German sports car maker has been on everyone’s lips for the last 10 years or so, but has the enthusiast market been saturated? I know I’ll never give up my love of the brand’s incredible history, but it’d be cool if we could all just…
Check out this beautiful lineup of Porsche Speedsters at the Paris Motor Show. There’s the 356 Speedster up front, the new 911 Speedster concept (which Porsche announced will go into production) in the middle, and the 1989 Porsche 911 Carrera Speedster 3.2 at the back. It’s an almost achingly gorgeous lineup of open…
Porsche has been teasing us for three days by running the 919 Hybrid Evo at Laguna Seca for the Rennsport Reunion festivities. For three days they’ve run within seconds of the track record, seeing times as low as the 1:07 range, while Ferrari’s F2003-GA record is mouth-wateringly close at just 1:05.786. When I arrived…
Life may be full of crushing and bitter disappointments, but remember this: you can weather all of it because you drive an Infiniti J30.
I was working on my Porsche 944 yesterday, replacing a few trim bits and installing new hood struts. I needed a small screwdriver to install something so I popped into the garage to grab one and when I got back this was what I saw. Big Henry, our beagle/basset hound mix decided it was time to go for a ride. I can’t…
You heard the Australians. Get out there and wash your car this weekend. Anyone who said you can’t have a little fun doing it is a dang liar.
I regret to inform everyone that the greatest SUV of all time is no longer available to purchase new. It was, and will always be, the Honda Element. It was too good for us, and we didn’t realize what we had until it was gone.
This is the Nissan Zaroot concept from 2011. I live in the universe where it was built as a production car, exactly as you see it here. We all drive Nissan Zaroots now. It’s awesome. Get on my level. In this universe Bruce Vilanch is president as well.
Has everyone forgotten about the 2014 Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo Concept by now? Yeah, I thought so. Here’s a reminder.
In college I drove a beat up Ford Aspire, a captive import re-badged Kia Avella. It was an awful machine with 63 horsepower 1.3-liter inline-four, the worst NVH ratings in the world, and many of its bits broken beyond repair. Despite it being pretty terrible at everything, it was actually kind of fun to drive. You…
Let down your hair, kick off your shoes, and cruise into this sweet, long Labor Day weekend in style: with a super sick camper van that you can hook up to your retro Volkswagen Beetle. It’s the ideal way to get cozy with a couple of your closest friends while you go camping and try not to dump someone off on the side…
One man. One dog. Three lovely ladies. If you were a young-at-heart fella back in 1966, the jaunty Jeepster was the perfect way to spend a day by the sea. You'd have to drive it to believe that someone out there decided a convertible sports Jeep was a damn good idea.
“Now, be good today, Ellen. When I get home this afternoon, I’ll take you and your sister down to the malt shop.”
“Get in the damn car, Mildred!” they all shouted. But Mildred, well, she would not get in the damn car, for the damn car was a 1958 Peugeot 403. Mildred preferred DeSotos.
Do you remember HPD’s CR-Z Hybrid R Concept that was shown at SEMA in 2010? I’ve never stopped thinking about it. The CR-Z is the proto hybrid sports coupe that I wish had continued to be developed. If Honda were to offer a similar car today with the Civic’s 1.5-liter turbo engine and a plug-in hybrid electric motor…
