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.

Ford has made some truly remarkable engines since the company was founded in 1903, and its motors power everything from massive trucks to iconic muscle cars, and track-bound race cars to warplanes and tanks. While it's hard to choose just five engines the U.S. automaker designed and made, we're looking at five class-leading gasoline-powered engines that arguably outshone other contemporary engines across its history. Some were chosen for their reliability, and others for sheer performance or record-breaking specifications. These are engines that Ford no longer makes, but we wish it did still, even if only for the bragging rights of owning new versions of them.

The second-generation Pontiac Firebird, with appearances as Jim Rockford's trusty steed in "The Rockford Files" and an iconic movie role in both "Smokey and the Bandit" and its sequel, became one of the most popular of all the Firebird generations and lasted from 1970 to 1981. It's interesting, however, that Rockford drove a lower-trimmed Firebird, while a Trans Am roared across the silver screen with Burt Reynolds at the wheel as the Bandit.

Setting Sail with Horsepower. When it comes to LS engine swaps, automotive enthusiasts have pushed the boundaries of creativity and performance in various vehicles. But what happens when you take this iconic engine and transplant it into a boat? That’s precisely the question one daring YouTuber set out to answer, and the results are making waves in the world of marine engineering.

As promised in a tease two months ago, the refreshed Audi E-Tron GT is out for the European market. And as expected, the upgrades track with those seen on the refreshed Porsche Taycan that sits on the same J1 platform as the Audi. Every E-Tron GT gets a battery pack that's grown from a usable 84 kWh to 97 kWh (105 kWh gross). An improved chemistry along with mechanical improvements to pack features like the cooling plates between cells means this greater capacity takes up less space and weighs about 20 pounds less than the previous pack. We'll have to wait on changes to EPA-rated range, Audi only saying max range is up to 375 miles on the WLTP cycle.

Aston Martin takes its retro-inspired Valour and turns it up a notch or two with help from F1 driver Fernando Alonso. Now called the Valiant, the redone coupe is packing a twin-turbo V12 making a massive 735 horsepower and 555 lb-ft of torque. You’d expect a paddle-shifted automatic for a track-focused car built around an F1 driver’s image, but the Valiant retains the Valour’s six-speed manual transmission–complete with beautiful exposed linkage–still spinning the rear wheels.
