Aston Martin celebrated its 110th anniversary last year. While the company has had its struggles, that number alone is evidence of a lasting, influential brand with real staying power. Another figure? An incredible 90 percent of Aston Martins are still on the road. The astonishing statistic, shared by head of...

Aston Martin Says 90 Percent of Its Cars Are Still on the Road

The Ford Mk1 Escort was known for tearing up rally stages throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s, with a production version built between 1967 and 1975. The Ford RS200 then became one of the most iconic rally cars of Group B in the 1980s, but production of the road-going model only lasted two years, between 1984 and 1986.

Ford hopes to set another record at this year’s Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.

Pimp My Ride introduced kids and teens to cars who didn't religiously watch TNN's PowerBlock programming. The show was a brief blip in the mid-2000s reality TV craze, running for six seasons over three years on MTV before ending in 2007. It took contestants's cars and added wild modifications that often had no right being in an automobile, and it's back, sort of, on Netflix with a new name.

Pimp My Ride Is Back, Sort Of

The Chevrolet Corvette you can buy today is nothing like the first-generation model. The car has come a long way since its humble beginnings in the early 1950s, but the original remains an icon and we hate to see it left to collect dust—like the example above. Thankfully, a thorough wash and detail help restore the sports car to its near-original glory.

Do you know anyone who has dual nature? Such two-faced zodiac signs are friendly but they gossip about others behind their backs. They can lie to you without batting an eyelid. However, detecting a two-faced person isn’t easy for everyone. They often compliment their friends when they achieve a goal or change their wardrobe. But they will make negative remarks about you to someone else. What other traits do two-faced people have?

3 Zodiac Signs Who Are Two-Faced

In case you haven't noticed, modern vehicles are packed with features and technology. Even the Nissan Versa—the cheapest new car in the United States—has a 7-inch touchscreen with voice controls and buttons all over the steering wheel. Step up to something like the Ariya and there's even more to suss out. The basics are usually straightforward, but figuring out all the tech can be intimidating. Nissan wants to change that.

It's been exactly three months since Jeep outed the 2024 Wrangler Rubicon 392 Final Edition, saying "goodbye to the grr-eight one." As it turns out, that was only goodbye for now because the V-8 off-roader makes a surprise return for 2025. This unexpected announcement is unlikely to sit well with those who thought they were buying a limited-production vehicle.

But you probably have now, because CDK Global has a software suite used by nearly 15,000 dealers. And right now, those locations are virtually shut down.

Bad news: There's one less Koenigsegg Jesko in the world. One example burned to the ground over the weekend in Greece during a road rally last week, turning the multi-million-dollar hypercar into an unrecognizable husk on the highway.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

If you're planning to take your car to a race track, odds are you're probably considering some upgrades to prepare yourself. Better brake pads and high-temp fluid are good ideas, but you might want to hold off on a set of ultra-sticky track day tires, especially if you're new to driving on track.
