It’s a 22-foot long travel trailer with a battery pack, electric motors, solar power, and an even sleeker design than the standard Airstream trailers. And it’s…

It doesn’t have to be a race. I’m not talking about a car show. It can be anything automotive… “thing” that you hope to attend in the near future. I’ve got one booked out a few months from now that involves driving fun things off-road, camping, eating good food, and maybe a beer or two…

I wanted a t-shirt design that incorporated music in a way that works with “car stuff”. We’ve had a t-shirt based on a Pearl Jam song. And we also did one that pays homage to an incredible album from Pink Floyd. It’s that second one that’s coming back today, as I’ve had a request to…

Return it to glory? This 1964 Buick Riviera could be awesome
/
/
comments
No, it’s not a 1965 model with the cool hidden headlights. But it IS a first-generation Riviera, and it DOES have a 7.0-liter V8 under the hood. This 1964 Buick Riviera has clearly seen better days. But the listing says the car is complete, fully equipped, has no rust, and runs excellent. And a running,…

Good tires on a car are an important item. It’s always nice to see great tire brands offered from the factory, especially on sports cars and trucks or SUVs alike. Still, I’m blown away by the fact that you can now get a 37-inch tire on a vehicle right off the showroom floor. That is…

Check out this modified Corvette that you’ll either totally love or absolutely hate

It’s fun to turn your car into something that you truly love. That’s what the owner of this 1989 Chevrolet Corvette did, and they went a bit further than simply swapping out the wheels or modifying the exhaust. This car has been completely re-bodied and it includes parts from… a lot of other vehicles. This…

When you drive the nearly 3,000 miles from Los Angeles to New York, you have to make a few stops. It doesn’t matter what type of vehicle you’re driving, you need to stop. In an electric car, you’re likely going to need to make a few longer stops to soak up some juice. And a…
