Freeman would, of course, have to begin with […]

Even then, he competed with himself, always working toward […]
Naming a motorcycle after a bird doesn’t seem all that impressive, but Suzuki didn’t name the Hayabusa after just any bird. Suzuki put some thought into it and considered what the motorcycle would mean to the industry at its debut in 1999. It deserved a name reflective of its capability, and for Suzuki, nothing embodied […]

Nationwide, every Chevrolet dealer heard only crickets in 1953 when the Corvette debuted, failing to impress drivers as Chevrolet envisioned. The automaker had a lot riding on the Corvette, hoping it would pull the company out of a sales slump. However, the first-generation model was a massive flop, with Chevy selling only 183 models.
