I knew I’d like the Ford Bronco Raptor, but I didn’t know that I’d love it. But I do because it’s amazing how well it handles off and on-road. You have good power, tons of travel, the best tires, and plenty of drive modes to handle any situation ahead of you. The Ford Bronco Raptor…

There are differences between the years. Sellers have a range of quality levels on offer. And a whole lot of cars clearly came packing six-cylinder power backed up by an automatic gearbox.

A few days ago, my family and I were in Mexico. Anytime you leave the country, you’re bound to see all sorts of vehicles you never get to see. Often, you’ll at least have heard of these cars and trucks but they don’t sell them where you live so you never come across them. Occasionally…

It’s always great when I get an email from Tim. You know, Mad Science himself. Also known as the co-founder of this here website. That’s because it’s usually about racing at Lemons. So I’m quick to respond with a “hell yes” and then think about the race even though it’s a month or possibly months…
