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.

Ford recalls more than 600,000 trucks due to transmission problem

Fallston, MD

There’s nothing more exhilarating than the throaty sounds of a vintage Trans-Am racer carving its way through a road course as it downshifts into the legendary corkscrew at Laguna Seca Raceway. The scent of race fuel and rubber adds to the adrenalin rush that leaves an indelible mark on anyone who has experienced it. That passion inspired Steve Ramsey of Fallston, Maryland, to create that combination of vintage looks and potent performance in this wicked ’63 Ford Falcon GT. The Falcon’s diminutive size made it a perfect model to transform into a modern-day Trans-Am-style asphalt-burner by packing every inch of it with a speed shop’s-worth of go-fast goods and making it ferocious on the street, road course, or even the dragstrip, while delivering plenty of dependability.

Enthusiasts aren't into the new Mercedes-AMG C63, and it's easy to see why. The widely loved twin-turbo V-8 from the last version is gone, replaced by a complicated hybrid system with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine at its heart.

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 has issued a recall of more than 30,000 Mustangs in model years 2022-2023 due to potential issues with steering control.

Ford recalls more than 30,000 Mustangs over potential loss of steering control

The Chevy Silverado 1500 is hugely popular, and as a result, GM assembles the light-duty pickup in no less than three locations – the GM Oshawa plant in Canada, the GM Fort Wayne plant in Indiana, the GM Flint plant in Michigan, and the GM Silao plant in Mexico. Meanwhile, the Silverado HD is built at the GM Flint plant in Michigan and at the Canadian plant as well. For the most part, the assembly process at these four facilities is pretty much identical – but not entirely. In fact, Chevy Silverado units built at the GM Oshawa plant receive a different paint application process than what is used at the other three facilities.
