Yeah, the lead image is unrelated. I just like rolling that thing out once a month for the last 10+ years. What I want to know though, is if there’s a car video out there that’s had a profound effect on your life? And I ask this because I just came across a non-car video…

Hooniverse Asks: What’s your favorite example of a car being somewhere it shouldn’t?

In the film The 25th Hour, Edward Norton’s character lives in Manhattan. He also drives a 1970 Dodge Coronet Super Bee. It’s one of my favorite examples of a car existing in a place where you don’t expect. In fact, the idea of muscle cars being driven in spaces others would never dare do so is…

Right now, it seems both Radwood era-vehicles and older boxy SUVs are experiencing their time in the sun. The Radwood effect is real and has certainly pushed otherwise pedestrian 1980’s and 1990’s cars and trucks onto the radar of many. Additionally, vintage Broncos have lifted up Land Cruisers, which in turn are giving rise to…

The other day, I asked if you were trying to buy a car right now. Some of you are considering it. Others are waiting to see what sort of deals are out there. While others know your current car is good for another decade or so. So there’s a range of buyers, fence-sitters, and contented…

The automotive industry is facing down a crisis right now. Global sales are expected to fall 22% this year, while domestic sales will drop by nearly 27% per CNBC. This will be a very tough time for the automakers, but it could be a perfect time for you. If you were considering buying a new…

Yesterday, I received an M18 battery in the mail. I’ve made my choice and I’m going to stay within the Milwaukee family of tools. That means more M12 and M18 batteries are in my future. Especially when I need good power to move a lot of air. Which is the case with the tool that…

Show me some car stunts! I’m talking stunts for movies. Stunts for commercials. I’ll take stunts for the hell of it. I want to see the greatest vehicular stunts of all time. I almost led with the shot of Jean Claude Van Damme doing the splits atop a pair of Volvo trucks, but I’ll let…

The answer to today’s question could be as simple as the Ford F-150. Or as complicated as some little known eight-axled Russian military machine that seven people have ever heard of. To help cut down on even more vehicles fitting the answer to this question, I’m excluding airplanes. Yes, you could consider each bit of landing…

Hooniverse Asks: What’s the most valuable road car you’ve seen crashed?

The Gemballa Mirage GT crash from yesterday has me thinking about banged up metal. That car was worth about $750,00. It’s likely totaled, though that’s based on cursory glances at the images snapped at the scene. This accident is an expensive one, and that’s before we get into the other vehicles, potential jail time, or…
