The Fiat 500 Abarth is a fun car but not a great car. It produces a rather addicting exhaust note, is fun to squeeze through traffic, and it returns a white-knuckle experience should you venture out on to a race track in one. The Abarth isn’t about the track though, despite the engineers stressing that…

It’s here! The first episode of American Detours is now live, and I’ve embedded the video for you after the break. This is the first of two parts dedicated to Louisiana’s Creole Nature Trail. In Episode One, host Jael De Pardo and myself are driving a lovely 1963.5 Ford Galaxie and we use it to…

There’s different kinds of car music – those which serve as sound track to your highway heroics, those which make you pine for such highway heroics, and those which make you think about the same highway heroics while booty grinding out at a club. Taio Cruz’s Fast Car represent’s the last form, and was written…

I’m the co-host for a new web series called American Detours, and it premieres on Monday at AmericanDetoursTV.com. The…

Anytime someone says they’re putting together a car show for television it leads to the inevitable comparisons to Top Gear. That’s a bad thing for the folks pitching the show, because nothing can match the Clarkson, Hammond, and May-trifecta. Not every show wants to be Top Gear though, and there’s a new one in the…

If you’ve very been a kid and had only the back seat as your kingdom- far away from the controls of your destiny or at the very least the aural assault on your ears, then you can appreciate the grown up who plays the favorite song of these two six year olds. Taken on various…

Literacy is a good thing, but sometimes being literal is not. In the case of this video that tries to visually match the cities of Geoff Mack’s fast clip lyrics as sung by the legendary Johnny Cash, it most certainly is. I’ve Been Everywhere was originally written by Mack using Australian locations, but was retooled…

As we have seen with dash cams, meteor attacks, and tiger-wrestling political leaders, everything is more badass in Russia. That goes equally for the country’s indie rockers and, if this insane and uber-violent music video is any example, so are their film directors and editors. The band is Biting Elbows and the song’s title is…

It seems that all of the Hoons here who read our little piece of the blogosphere seems to love Top Gear, that brash, British motor show starring three blokes going on about all sorts of cars, and whether they are worth blathering about. It is very Eurocentric, with more than a dash of Blighty mixed…

If something is retro, as it ages does it still embody the same nostalgia of the era it is evoking? Or, does it engender that same feeling for the time in which it was created, and that era’s take on the period in the past it still channels? Heavy stuff, I know. Recorded in 1996…
