A car typically spends a dozen years on the road in the United States.

We love concept cars. Flashy designs, out-there tech, things that won’t show up on production cars for years — hook them into our veins. But, sadly, sometimes those fancy concepts don’t just take years to hit production — sometimes, they never get there at all. - Steve DaSilva Read More
