    Seattle Drivers Keep Crashing at This Baffling Freeway Exit

    Doesn't really seem that bad from the second video (although still not great and probably a lot more stressful with lots of traffic). Seen worse transitions in Detroit and Cincinnati areas.

    If you drop your car off at the dealership and it kills someone it is your fault...what!

    Unfortunately "the dealership cannot be sued because of a legal standard preventing an employee from suing their boss for negligence, which, in this case, would be the hiring of someone who should not have been driving." So the deceased's family sued the 19 year old w/ no license who didn't...

    Ferrari Goes Big Time With A New V12! Why Isn't Anyone Else?

    ...in a god damn SUV of all things! https://www.roadandtrack.com/news/a39906852/ferrari-purosangue-suv-v-12/ They are downsizing powerplants in other cars though. The 296 GTB is a V6 hybrid! Granted it still makes over 800 HP....

    Dragstrips Closing Around The Country. Why?

    Milan Dragway near me was recently bought and they are refurbishing it. Due to reopen sometime this month I think. Hopefully the new owners will bring in lots of events/$$$ and keep investing in the facility.

    Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis recently confirmed the release of the Dodge Hornet

    Lol! It's an Alfa 'heritage' thing. Shield grille has been around in one form or another forever. Like the BMW kidneys or Jeep 7 slot 'signatures'. Still, sometimes it works, other times not so much.

    Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis recently confirmed the release of the Dodge Hornet

    Well it's spelled Tonale and properly pronounced Toe-NAH-lay with a snobby Italian accent, but it sure looks like it should be pronounced 'Toenail' in 'Merican.

    Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis recently confirmed the release of the Dodge Hornet

    Those pics are the Alfa Toenail that the Hornet is based on. The Hornet has a more Dodge-y looking front end. This is the only pic so far of the front. Not that it's going to make much difference. Still ultimately a little Compass based CUV.

    Dodge Hornet?

    You know the current Charger/Challenger traces it's roots back to the dark days of the Mercedes merger (takeover) right? A lot of the LX platform was derived from early 2000s E-class and S-class designs and bits. It's the beginning of the end for V8s in pretty much everything from every...

    Dodge Hornet?

    Every automaker does it to some extent. I wouldn't say everything, but PSA sure as hell isn't going to spend money on dedicated/separate US platforms if it doesn't have to when they can share stuff worldwide. Everything recent (and stuff coming soon) has been developed by the Fiat/Chrysler...

    Dodge Hornet?

    Because it is. This is the Alfa Romeo Toenail it's based on- Not something I'd necessarily want, but Dodge definitely needs something in this space since they have nothing left except the Durango, Charger, and Challenger. All of which are on borrowed time now anyway.

    Dodge Hornet?

    Yes. Already been some leaked pics a couple months ago. Has a Durango-ish face, but otherwise seems mostly the same as the Toenail...I mean Tonale. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a39135672/dodge-hornet-leaked/

    My New Hellcat Charger Pick Up Finally Came In!!

    I mean, that one may not be real, but it can be (and has been) done. I like it. https://www.motor1.com/news/519749/dodge-charger-pickup-for-sale/

    Hurricane Fuel Economy Sucks, Keep The Hemi!

    Not that I know of unfortunately. Basically a GME-T4 with 2 extra cylinders and I don't think that has aux port injection either.

    Hurricane Fuel Economy Sucks, Keep The Hemi!

    The HO version will probably take tuning pretty well. HO has forged pistons, piston oil squirters, dual fuel pumps, etc. The SO version without those fortifications probably won't survive too long with mods. Pure speculation of course. The carbon build up though...

    Hurricane Fuel Economy Sucks, Keep The Hemi!

    There's no real apples to apples comparison yet. It's only available in the 'L' Wagoneers so far, which are about 300 lbs heavier than the shorter versions that have V8s (and the Hurricane is about 200 lbs lighter than the Hemi too). S.O. Hurricane also makes 28hp/64tq more than the ET 5.7...

    I am a fan of all three of these cars, but the video is worth watching just for Randy acting the fool

    One of my favorite comparison videos. Makes me want a BW even more. The truck vid you posted earlier is also pretty good.

    What in the hell is the world coming to?

    I'm just saying if you wanted Singer to build you a Porsche it would be expensive. No different than getting an overpriced hot rod built by a big name like Chip Foose or something. Having said that, I just looked at the whole description instead of just the first couple pics. Original Singer...

    What in the hell is the world coming to?

    I'm starting to feel like the old man yelling 'back in my day...' constantly. I'm not even 50 yet... WTF :oops:

    What in the hell is the world coming to?

    It's a Singer. Singer restomods older Porsches and they're hella expensive. The waiting list to get one custom built is also years long. So I guess this ugly ass color was acceptable to someone, and it was a good way to skip the line? We are a society of instant gratification these days after...

    Chrysler Pacifica Hellcat

    Thought maybe it was an early recycled April Fool's joke, like the Ghoul/Angel. But it looks like someone really is going to build one for SEMA. Awesome!
