Why Ford's 302 Windsor Outlasted Every Small-Block Of Its Era (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ford’s 302 Windsor was never the largest, most powerful, or most exotic small-block V8 of its time. That became its advantage. While specialized engines disappeared as emissions rules, fuel prices, and changing performance priorities reshaped Detroit, Ford kept finding new jobs for the compact 302. The Windsor family began with the 221 ci (cubic inch) engine in 1961 and the 260 ci version in 1962, but the 302 ci displacement did not debut until 1968. It remained available through the 2001 model
The SUV That Has A Better Long-Term Ownership Case Than Its More Popular Rival (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Buying the most popular SUV in America feels like the responsible decision, but popularity has a price. The Toyota RAV4 offers strong reliability, excellent resale value, and fuel economy that makes many rivals look wasteful.

Read excerpt
Buying an SUV that feels right during a 20-minute test drive is easy. Buying one that will still feel like the right decision after 10 years is much harder. Flashy technology can become dated, inexpensive financing eventually gives way to repair bills, and a powerful engine may lose its charm after consuming thousands of dollars in extra fuel. Long-term ownership rewards a different kind of vehicle; one that controls operating costs without becoming too small, too slow, or too compromised for ev
The Luxury Sedan That Makes Sense To Buy Used At 10 Years Old (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Buying a 10-year-old luxury sedan can look like an easy way to acquire a prestigious badge without paying a prestigious price. That logic often disappears after the first cooling-system failure, suspension repair, or malfunctioning electronic module. Depreciation may reduce a car’s purchase price, but it does not make complicated parts any cheaper. However, one luxury sedan offers a different ownership equation. It has a naturally aspirated V6, conventional automatic transmission, high-quality i
