A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

The Toyota Land Cruiser nameplate dates back to the Korean War in the early '50s, when Japan needed to develop a light truck for military use. Back then, it took inspiration from the military-spec Jeeps that friendly forces from the US were using in Japan at the time. It was a tough, hardy, and dependable truck even seventy-odd years ago.

It's not a big surprise that the manual-transmission SUV is next up on the chopping block for vehicles sending the manual the way of the dodo. The appeal of the manual gearbox largely has to do with driver engagement. The appeal of the sports utility vehicle is mostly down to convenience in the modern automotive landscape. These two qualities are, if not incompatible, at least difficult to counterbalance. Then you add cost concerns into the mix, and it's easy to see why SUV makers would rather avoid spending millions developing a new stick shift and passing the expenses on to the buyer in a segment that frequently competes on price alone.

If approved by the Jacksonville City Council, a marker would be installed at Kings Road and Canal Street on Aug. 25, a day before the first anniversary of the shooting, when a white gunman took the lives of three Black people.

Who here remembers the Ford Probe? The name is so goofy it might as well be a made-up car from the Grand Theft Auto series, but they really went with that title and slapped it on a Mazda-based i4. The weirdest thing about the Ford Probe wasn't the name, it was the fact that the car was actually pitched as the fourth-generation Ford Mustang, despite ticking almost none of the boxes you want a Mustang to tick.

The T-56 six-speed manual transmission has had a very interesting history. Originally made by BorgWarner and appearing first in the 1992 Dodge Viper with its special V10 engine, the T-56 showed up next in GM's 1993 Firebird Trans Am and Camaro Z28 F-body pony cars — as an antidote to problems with the existing T-5 five-speed. The T-5 was small and easy to package in a variety of vehicles, but it was torque-limited to 330 lb-ft at a time when a new horsepower war was getting started in Detroit. The new T-56 six-speed was the solution, with its ability to handle 450 lb-ft of torque without any issues.
