VIDEO: Japanese Bososoku parade lap [WARNING: Laughter-induced weeping may occur] {Autoblog}
May 3rd 2007 11:35PM I believe this is called carbage. It's always funny, usually sad, but in this case... I love it.
Van again: Ford announces 2008 E-Series {Autoblog}
Mar 7th 2007 9:50PM 49% market share sends a loud message. This vehicle is about function and longevity, not style. I do think that the old version looked better tho :) But, look at the European vans, they're ugly too.
The price of being an F1 nerd: 70,000 in personalized plates {Autoblog}
Mar 2nd 2007 3:05PM If you live in a US state that does not require a front plate, you could have your own "F1 PRO" plate made up for $34 :) Personally, I think I'd opt for "TI 3VOM".

Ford loses $1b due to counterfeit parts {Autoblog}
Jan 23rd 2007 6:54PM I am someone who buys OEM parts. Knockoff parts are nowhere near the quality of OEM. Heck, some 3rd party parts are not as good as OEM. Say you have a four year old car receiving a new set of rotors and pads. Do you want Chinese brakes? Do you want your car to stop in the distance all the car mags say it should, or do you want it to take an extra ten feet?
It's an ethical issue, a legal issue, and a safety issue. Period.
Detroit Auto Show: 2008 Ford Focus {Autoblog}
Jan 7th 2007 1:21PM One of these cars looks like it was designed by a company that has been building cars for over a century. The other looks like a first effort by a Chinese company that previously made toasters.

Stretching it a bit: classic Mustang limos {Autoblog}
Dec 20th 2006 10:49AM To the nay-sayers, do you realize that Ford churned out millions of Mustangs? Even today there's still plenty to go around. It's not like they tore up two vintage Ferraris.
Scrambler could bring a bed back to Jeep - and you can retrofit it! {Autoblog}
Oct 26th 2006 12:45PM Agree w/ #2. Lose the Hemi, give it a small torqy engine. I'll take mine in gun-metal gray with a blue denim interior. Just kidding, but that would be so sweet.
It looks like a modern version of the old Willys truck...

VIDEO: Subabuse {Autoblog}
Oct 20th 2006 5:43PM Aw, c'mon, they're just having a good time. I know a number of people who take great pleasure in destroying $400 Subarus in their own private backwoods rallys.
I know it's a long shot, but any chance that Autoblog will cover this year's Lake Superior Performance Rally in Michigan's UP? Of course, there's always a large number of Subarus. This is a SCCA sponsored pro rally. Pitty I will not be able to attend this year.
