Virginia fans of The Bold and the Beautiful, if you were watching earlier this week when Tom Star (Clint Howard died), you know that Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda) did not honor her Hippocratic Oath as a physician to "do no harm".

Remember Jason Momoa’s somewhat unbelievable Rolls-Royce EV restomod? Or the silent, torque-tacular E-Type conversion that charmed our own Angus MacKenzie (despite its breathtakingly steep price)? Both of those were Electrogenic jobs, a restomod outfit out of the U.K. that started out doing bespoke EV conversions but soon moved to modular kits intended to be installed in all sorts of vehicles. Cool cars, like 964-and-earlier Porsche 911s, Issigonis Minis, and now, the notorious DeLorean DMC-12, which just received its very own Electrogenics plug-and-play conversion kit.

Ford’s decision to discontinue its sedans in the U.S. a few years ago was one that was met with universal shock at the time, along with plenty of criticism – though some have since defended it. Now, years later, many still question this move, even as hard sales data seems to support it and Americans continue to show a preference for crossovers, SUVs, pickups, and profitable specialty models like off-road-focused trims and variants. In addition to that, it seems as if Ford also lost a good bit of money when it was selling sedans in the U.S., too.

The Most Common Problems You'll Have With The New Tesla EVs

Carrollton, OH

These days it’s common that high-performance “race” versions of cars are stuffed away in climate-controlled garages and treated as collectibles or investments rather than the beat-the-crap-out-of-it track weapons they were designed to be. But back in the day this wasn’t the case, and track-prepped cars were commonly thrashed on the track. Go figure. Then again, we also drank out of garden hoses and participation trophies didn’t exist.

Mate Rimac has successfully launched his first Bugatti since taking over the Bugatti kingdom, and he knocked it out of the park. The Tourbillon is an engineering masterpiece and a worthy successor to the Veyron and Chiron hypercars, which makes Rimac the most important CEO in the automotive industry right now. How can we say that about a man in charge of two hypercar brands who only sell cars that most people will never even see, let alone afford? Well, Rimac's influence stretches well beyond the two brands he's in charge of, and every other automotive CEO should be taking notes.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Fun fact: Our instrumented testing takes place on, you guessed it, clean pavement. We don’t measure new vehicles’ 0–60-mph performance, lateral acceleration, or braking distances on dirt or rocks. That doesn’t mean our first test reviews can’t also touch on a vehicle’s off-road acumen—but this report on the new Toyota Land Cruiser will not.

Like it or not, Tesla is the most successful EV maker for the time being. No matter how long a legacy automaker has been making cars, it will be compared to Tesla when it decides to make an EV. To Tesla's credit, the brand sells a lot of EVs. During the first quarter of 2024, Tesla delivered a total of 386,810 vehicles across the brand's entire lineup. Those deliveries are primarily comprised of mass-market cars that include the Model 3 and Model Y, with more niche vehicles like the Model S and even more niche Cybertruck rounding out the sales.
