The other thing is the name: we always called the Ford version of this car the Tempo in America, and the Mercury version was the Topaz. But, in Mexico, everything was different. Chairs sat on people, breakfast was for dinner, and they called the car the Ford Topaz. Mind-scrambling, right? Oh, and I learned one other Tempo/Topaz thing: there was this early commercial where a Tempo does a full vertical loop:...
I just got back from Germany, and boy did I miss the car culture here in The Motor Suburb. I’m ready to drink it in, so let’s have an Autopian meetup at the usual spot, followed by a cruise down Woodward Avenue, which is going to be absolutely lit on Saturday evening. Bring a lawn chair, as I plan to set up shop on the side of the fabled M-1, and just sit there into the night....

Just so you know and can feel the cringe for yourself, here’s the video: Right from the first “This one’s for you,” this sounds like a parody of X-treem ’90s-feeling doofuscore-rap bullshit. I mean, I don’t know who that moustache-grower in the white shirt is, wandering around in a cave and throwing sand and saying all those silly, silly words in that sounds-like-a-14-year-old-kid-trying-to-sound-badass voice, but oh man, is it, um, bad....
For starters, cars in good condition will likely be a little more rare. Bad examples of great cars are just too fun. Secondly, pricing will somewhat vary as shitboxes exist across the entire automotive pricing spectrum. That 1989 Volvo 740 sitting on a lawn with a dollar store for sale sign in the window? Possibly a shitbox. That high-mileage 2008 Toyota 4Runner from a rust belt state? Probably a shitbox....

Yes, a 2015 Mirage — in large part the same as the 2023 Mirage (the smallest new car in America now that the Chevy Spark has left this cruel world) — made into a camper, with a sink and everything. I love everything about this, not the least of which is that I have a fondness for the humble little Mirage, a car I reviewed back in the day and, more importantly, came to the defense of when other bigshot car reviewers were taking unfair shits upon this honest little machine....
Yes, the Rivian R1T smashed it, earning the Institute’s highest rating of Top Safety Pick+, an impressive feat considering that the new Toyota Tundra is the only other truck to earn such a rating. But why is that? To find out, we’ll have to look at how this rating is assigned. But first, a little explainer on what makes the R1T so different from most other pickup trucks. For starters, there’s the method of construction....
The beauty of this is it gives the company freedom. Mopar is able to make different vehicles compared to what’s expected — to bring a hard rock playlist along when everyone is politely nodding in time to some bland bed-wetter’s music. When Chrysler was briefly the coolest car company on the planet in the early nineties, they built the Viper and the Prowler. Realizing they would have to do something extraordinary to have any chance of gaining market share in the full-size pick up market, the designers cracked open a fresh pack of Marlboro Reds and came up the “big rig” second generation Ram 1500....
The IRA (no, not that IRA, a different one) will have major effects on how Americans build, source and buy EVs. First and foremost, for new cars to qualify for the tax credit, the EVs have to be built in North America. Sorry, Hyundai, Polestar and Subaru. Tough luck. Furthermore, those EV batteries have to be built in North America and ultimately with minerals sourced in the United States or its free-trade partners....
Named after the race in which Porsche won first place in 1984, the Porsche 911 Dakar has been put through the wringer by Porsche engineers, the Stuttgart-based brand would like you to know. Porsche’s press release mentions that the car saw many hours in an off-road proving ground in Weissach. That appears to be a gravel quarry — pretty much the only place one can go off-roading in Germany, in my experience:...

These marital disruptions could lead to separation, divorce, and sometimes death. Research dictates that after twenty years of marriage close to fifty-three percent of marriages have been messed up.
