The pickup truck is synonymous with blue-collar Americans as a vehicle doing double duty as both a mode of transport and a means of carrying out hard work. The latter is a trait that would seem to perfectly line up with the concept of a manual gearbox, as both the pickup truck and the stick shift are signs that the operator is not afraid to put in the effort. The manual gearbox is simple, robust, and hard-working, as are America's pickups. So why, then, have their numbers dwindled?

From the May 1983 issue of Car and Driver. It could be argued—indeed, the proposition has been put forward numerous times in this journal—that the Chevrolet Monte Carlo is every bit as appealing to the car enthusiast as a Toyota Starlet is to Doug Fraser. From the enthusiast's point of view, the Monte Carlo has average handling, discernible performance, insipid manners, and simulated neoclassic styling reminiscent of a Singer Gazelle or something. In other words, it's everything you never wanted in a car. But, heck, it wasn't intended for you hot-bloods anyway. The average buyer is pushing 50 and has one foot on the golf course and one eye on a retirement condo in Florida.

Ever since the contentious Tesla Cybertruck reached consumers' hands, it has been subject to a wide range of tests and trials. One such notable test was conducted by the prominent YouTuber JerryRigEverything last winter, where he tested the Cybertruck's range while towing its maximum capacity of 11,000 pounds. Now, the YouTuber has repeated the same test with the Chevrolet Silverado EV, and if the numbers are anything to go by, the Silverado EV leaves the Cybertruck eating its dust when it comes to towing range.

Menstrual taboos are as old as time and found across cultures. They've been used to separate women from men physically — menstrual huts are still a thing — and socially, by creating the perception that a natural bodily function is a sign of weakness.Even in today's world women are deemed unfit for positions of power because some men actually believe they won't be able to handle stressful situations while mensurating."Menstruation is an opening for attack: a mark of shame, a sign of weakness, an argument to keep women out of positions of power,' Colin Schultz writes in Popular Science.

If you’ve been following the electric vehicle (EV) scene, you might have heard some concerning news about SK On, the South Korean battery manufacturer. They’ve hit a bit of a rough patch due to lower-than-expected sales of electric vehicles in key markets like Europe and the U.S. Let's dive into what’s going on and why it matters.

Battery Manufacturer Declares Urgency Due to Low EV Sales, Says Financial Times

Ford has announced pricing for the 2025 Mustang, and unfortunately the prices of the desirable V-8-powered models each increased by at least $2600. While we're not huge fans of spending more money, we do love the throaty growl of a 5.0-liter V-8, and with the imminent death of the Chevy Camaro as well as the disappearance of the Dodge Challenger, the Mustang has become the only remaining American muscle car still offering a V-8. Unsurprisingly, when four Car and Driver staffers delved into Ford's online configurator to build our ideal Mustangs, we all ended up choosing the V-8 and stick-shift combination.
