RAMming Speed Go
/
This wonderful example of crumple zone technology mixed with a dash of torque is brought to you by a resident of Alberta, Canada. Apparently, the driver of this Dodge Ram was hanging out in British Columbia, enjoying some of the local adult beverages. Bar A apparently was not as fun as what Bar B had…

Purity Of Essence: 1964 El Camino
/
A few years ago, in the wake of the theft of my 1985 4Runner (a story for another day) I seriously considered purchasing an El Camino. Aside from the inherent awesomeness, it actually made sense at the time; gas was cheap and I was hauling a bunch of waterski gear around. I ended up buying…

No One Wants Your Candy! (But We Do Want to Rent an Exotic)

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7CsuKvo72Y[/youtube] If you’re not a fan of surrealism, odd internet references, fast cars, loose women or spiffy videos, you needn’t hit play. Of course, if that’s the case, you probably only ended up here by badly misspelling “omnivores”. Yes, Midway Car Rental is real, and they just happen to be based in LA. Someone tell…

Gift ideas for the Hoon in your life
/
In case you had not heard, there is a major holiday rapidly approaching. If you are anything like me you cannot wait for it to be over and done with. That’s not to say I dislike the holidays, but I would rather chew on beer bottles and crap glass than be stuck in mall traffic or…

W8, Is This Wagon Worth It?
/
If there is one thing we love here at Hooniverse, it’s wagons. Be it a classic diesel Benz, a super-tanker long ’67 Country Sedan, or a modern super sports wagon a la the E63 and forbidden-fruit RS6 Avant. There are some wagons out there that make you take a step back… it all looks great…

Hooniverse Asks- What's the Worst Car-Related Gift Ever?
/

If you think the idea of Italian-built production Chryslers is new, you only have to look back about 50 years to see that we are not navigating in uncharted waters.
