After being treated as an automotive backwater for many years, the midsize truck segment has recently been revitalized with a slew of new models. While these smaller pickups are still nowhere near as popular as their full-size siblings, they have carved out a healthy niche for themselves as the go-to choice for serious off-roaders. When […]
There are more and more lifted trucks for sale these days, and the number of companies making quality lift kits is only going up. You can even buy lifted trucks in a variety of flavors straight from the factory. From basic packages like the Ram Rebel and Ford Tremor to off-road monsters like the Ram […]
Nissan is among the largest Japanese car brands in Canada, selling a wide range of cars, trucks, and SUVs, but older drivers will remember that Nissan wasn’t always known by that name. Instead of visiting a Nissan dealership to find popular models from the Micra to the Maxima, you would head over to your local […]
We’ve all heard the jokes about the “Zupra,” and there are few car enthusiasts left who don’t know that the new Toyota Supra is really a BMW Z4 at its heart. Rather than rehash the debate over whether the A90 is a “real” Supra, it might be worth embracing the controversy and asking which of […]
The engine is the heart of a truck, and when you are searching for “used truck sales near me,” it is twice as important to get an engine that is as reliable as it is powerful. A used truck can be a more affordable option, but only if the engine is designed for a long […]
Nothing makes a car look faster than some stickers and a large rear spoiler, and while you’ll have to get the stickers yourself, Chevy does offer a multitude of different spoilers, splitters, wings, and other aero parts for the 2022 Camaro. While aftermarket aero is, of course, an option for those who don’t mind drilling […]
2022 marks the 90th anniversary of the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans. However, in addition to the historic significance, this year will mark an inflection point for the cars racing around the Circuite de la Sarthe.

If there is one thing sports car enthusiasts agree on, it’s that putting an automatic transmission into a sports car borders on heresy. While you may end up succumbing to the demands of practicality (especially if you have a significant other who doesn’t share your enthusiasm for three pedals), an automatic transmission simply can’t bring […]
BMW is a brand that has reinvented itself several times in its century-long history. Founded as an aircraft engine manufacturer, BMW began producing motorcycles after the Treaty of Versailles ended German aircraft production—eventually entering the world of luxury automobiles in the late 1920s. The devastation that followed WWII all but destroyed the company, but BMW […]
Mercedes may be in trouble. This iconic luxury brand seems to be losing its luster, and a quick look at 2021 end-of-year sales figures shows that it currently sits in 4th place for the luxury segment behind Tesla, BMW, and Lexus. While Mercedes still has a healthy lead over Audi in 5th place, it isn’t […]
Have you ever wondered why they call it “British Racing Green?” Thought about why Ferrari and the color red are inseparable? Or stopped to question why a disproportionate number of American muscle cars are blue with white racing stripes? It turns out that all of these questions have the same answer. In the early days […]
It seems that 2022 is the year the truck world goes electric, and after months of teasing, Chevy has finally raised the curtain on the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV.

Despite dealing with unprecedented disruption in the past year, the auto industry has rolled out some impressive new models. We have seen Cadillac introduce the ultimate muscle car with the unexpected CT5-V Blackwing, and we have seen Tesla push EVs to new heights with the unbelievably fast Model S Plaid. But while there were plenty […]
It’s no secret – the manual transmission is dying. Americans fell in love with the simplicity and convenience of the automatic the moment the first primitive slush boxes hit the market back in the 1940s. As automatics became more affordable, the reliable manual was slowly squeezed out of the market. Today, more and more manufacturers […]
One-ton trucks like the 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500HD and the 2022 Ford F-350 are no stranger at the job site or towing just about anything down the road. However, when it comes to off-roading, most enthusiasts will tell you to steer clear of these monsters and get something smaller – usually a half-ton truck or […]
Auto clubs have a long history, with the first clubs being formed shortly after the first automobiles were built. In fact, the world’s first auto club was founded in 1895, when the Automobile Club de France was organized in Paris. In fact, you might already be a member of one of the oldest auto clubs […]
This weekend saw the 89th running of the world’s oldest and greatest endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Held on the Circuit de la Sarthe, a combination of race track and public roads through the French countryside, Le Mans is a grueling challenge for cars and drivers. After an early morning start on […]
When it comes to rugged off-roaders, the first vehicle that comes to mind is the Jeep. From the military models of the 1940s to the plush four-door Wranglers of today, no matter its official name, the off-road Jeep is one of those handful of models that has maintained its iconic look for the better part […]
This is a bittersweet time to be a sports car enthusiast – and I’m not talking about the dreaded rise of the “soulless” electric vehicle or the rapidly proceeding demise of coupes. Cars are faster and more capable than ever before, but the continuous push to build something “better” is creating a world where cars […]
If you have the slightest interest in cars (and even if you don’t), then you probably know all about the major racing series – NASCAR, Formula 1, and World Rally Championship. However, like most sports, those headline-grabbing events are only the tip of the iceberg. Underneath is the wide world of amateur racing. Across America, […]
