    The Grand Tour returns this September with a pretty darn perfectly titled adventure called A Scandi Flick. In the latest trip, Richard Hammond, James May, and Jeremy Clarkson are tasked with trials while staying up in the Arctic Circle. So you can expect to find seriously cold weather mixed with rally car excellence. And the…

    The 2023 Acura Integra is a premium sporty hatchback. It’s priced wonderfully for what it offers, drives well, and has a comfortable interior. And a portion of the Internet will absolutely hate it for not being some sort of high-performance amalgamation of what they imagined it would be. I’m here to tell you that it…

    The Super73-Z Miami is the evolution of the brand’s entry-level electric bike. It is an improvement over the original Z1 based on feedback from Super73 customers. You have more power, a removable battery, and a greater range. And it starts at just under $2,000. I still prefer the more expensive RX lineup of bikes. But…

    My Montero has been working hard for most of its life. At least I assume as much since it’s a vehicle designed to go… well, anywhere. And I’m now taking it easy on the thing, even if it shows 326,000 miles on its odometer. Still, I’d like it to look good, which occasionally means addressing…

    Do you ever think it would be nice to have a modern car to use on a daily basis? Sometimes I imagine what it would be like to say goodbye to my car from 1991, my car from 1986, and the car from 1984 that hasn’t had an engine in (let me check my notes)…

    I said I wasn’t going to put a roof on top of my 1991 Mitsubishi Montero. Plans change. Especially when those plans change to work around an incredibly light bit of kit that I can easily take on and off my truck. The fine folks at Go Fast Campers reached out to see if I…

    I don’t ride motorcycles, but I’m fascinated by motorcycle protection. From armored-up jeans to full Bubble Boy outfits, there are a ton of options for gear. And one of the more interesting families of motorcycle gear is the air protection system built into the Dainese Smart Jacket. Now it’s apparently even better because Dainese has…

    I swear a lot in this video… and it’s the car’s fault. The Porsche 911 GT3 Touring is pretty much anything I could ever want in a sports car. You have amazing power and noise from the 4.0-liter flat-six engine out back, a tremendous gearbox with the six-speed stick, and levels of performance upon which…

    Did you hear automakers are considering charging monthly fees for certain features? BMW is in the news for testing this out in a handful of markets. We think it’s insane.
