Who remembers Vector? Back in the 90s, they were creating some angular and outlandish super cars , and somehow they're still around today, likely performing all manner of unholy mechanical experiments. How else can you explain these massive parts of a something in their back yard?
Jeep is now offering topographical map hood decals as a Mopar add-on for the Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, Wrangler, and Wrangler Unlimited. For $300, the dealer print any location you want on this cool black-on-darker-black hood graphic. Neato!

Shortly before an aircraft evacuation slide decided to fulfill its mission out of turn last night, United announced that it will be eliminating a couple of the things commonly served with meals in its premium cabins — ketchup and garlic bread.
It doesn't fly, and by the looks of it back when it hit the auction block earlier this year, it didn't even drive. But Ringbrothers turned that 1972 Winnebago Brave into a tiki-wagon, with an interior inspired by WWII aircraft, in six months. Shut up. Oh. It has a pizza oven.
Unbelieveable flying fun was had at the Ozark Backountry Fly-in, held on Memorial Day weekend, based at Gaston's White River Resort in Lakeview, Arkansas.
We've seen how beastly purpose-built off-road buggies can be . Even when the climb doesn't end as planned, these little monsters can take a tumble and preserve their passenger. I think driver Bobby Tanner here owes his roll cage fabricator a gift basket after surviving this insanity.
It's got two turbos and six cylinders all in a row. It has 425 horsepower. It's lighter than the V8 powered car it replaces. But is the all-new 2015 BMW M4 really any good?
It. Never. Ends. GM is recalling another 7.6 million vehicles for six new ignition-related safety defects in models ranging from 1997 to 2014. And according to the automaker, these recalled cars are responsible for seven crashes resulting in eight injuries and three deaths.
Every little bit helps when it comes to dropping the pounds, and it's even more important with unsprung weight. So Audi is nixing ye ol' steel springs for fiberglass on an "upper mid-size model" later this year. Our money's on the new A7 . It's the obvious choice.
Electrically propelled cars aren't going anywhere, but until battery tech delivers a significant range breakthrough, combustion-engine range-extenders will be part of the deal. But how do you make those better suited to the task of supplying juice while not powering any wheels? Toyota might have the answer.
I'm really sad we won't get the Renault Twingo in the U.S. It's a funky, practical hatchback that just happens to have its engine in the back. Know what's even better? The crazy Renault Twin'Run one-off, which subs in a 320 horsepower V6 out back. Just listen to it!
What if you got a 1970 Citroen DS21 Pallas in white with lots of chrome, but you don't like white or chrome? You wrap it and go a bit loco in the process.
This huge tool set has great reviews, and breaks the magical $.50/tool barrier. Actually, it totally shatters it. [Craftsman 192 Piece Mechanics Tool Set, $78 after code SAVE15]
In the most butt-clenching thing you'll see today, watch this BMW driver somehow avoid a flying Volvo and another BMW at a race in Denmark. Remarkably, none of the drivers were injured.
"We just chased down a mule in the RV ," says the email from Michael Ballaban. Our mobile command center, JALOP-1, is now a spy vehicle.
PVC tires on a small go kart make drifting easy. But just imagine them on a car?
Our friends at Regular Car Reviews have never reviewed a car more simply "there" than the Dodge Nitro. It's a car that could have only existed in it's time, and could have only been created without Lee Iacocca at the helm of Chrysler.
Aston Martin offers a V8 Vantage that costs under $100,000. That means you can cross-shop a new Aston with a Jaguar F-Type R. But is the 2015 V8 Vantage GT a bargain, or a desperate ploy to sell a 10-year-old sports car facing its end times. We found out.
