    Japanese Roots, American Badge: How The Ram 50 Got Dodge Into The Compact Pickup Market (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In the 1970s, America's automotive mojo was in trouble. The first gas crisis hit in 1973, forcing many folks out of their large, gas-guzzling V8s into compact models. By 1978, another gas crisis landed. At this point, the old ways of American motoring were all but finished as a whole, and the entire country needed to adapt, including the pickup truck market. Both Ford and Chevrolet released tiny compact pickup trucks way back in 1972, just in time for stuff to hit the fan. Dodge, however, lacked

    Audi and Lamborghini occupy different tiers of the premium vehicle market. Audi is a German luxury marque that also builds performance vehicles and has a full range of sedans and SUVs.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Up until recently, showing up at a used car lot with $20k to spend would net you a pretty new, low-mileage vehicle that could last a long time. Unfortunately, that's no longer the case. As new cars continue to increase in price, bringing used values with them, that $20k means less and less. According to numerous sources, the amount of three-year-old used cars that sell for less than $20k is now below 10%. However, the Toyota Corolla offers some relief from today's rising prices.

    Excerpt · English

    Old-school gearheads rejoice: the GM 350 (5.7L) and 400 CID (6.6L) V8s have returned. Well, not exactly; the new engines just happen to utilize the same displacement measurements. Both new engines debut in time for the refreshed 2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, and both are capable of producing over 400 horsepower. Towing capacities increased by quite a lot, too. Strangely, GM decided to remove the oil dipsticks. The decision is made even more perplexing when you learn the new Corv

    4.9-Liter V8, 200-HP, Only 400 Made: The Falcon Cobra You've Never Heard About (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    While the United States is widely known for its affinity for muscle cars, Australia has always had a soft spot for them, too. In the late 1970s, Ford Australia found itself with an issue with its muscle-bound Falcon CX hardtops. Some body shells were left over, and the XC was due for a generational refresh. Instead of scrapping the surplus units, Ford created 400 limited-edition Falcon XC Cobras. By creating an account, you agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. You also agree to receive
