Look at the illustrious history of Aprilia, and you’ll rarely find any budget-friendly motorcycles. The Noale-based factory has always focused on the big bike end of the market, whether it’s in the naked or sports bike segments. Heck, the last globally renowned entry-level motorcycle in the brand’s history might be the RS250 from the 1990s.

What we have to talk about right now honestly makes me beyond angry. How could I not be?. But to read about how someone threw up a wire booby trap along a dirt bike and ATV trail, at a perfect height so as to tear your head clean off, it just boils my blood at the callousness that someone has for another person's life.

There are a lot of factors that determine how much power an internal combustion engine makes, but the biggest is simply how fast it can consume fuel. This is true in both turbocharged and naturally aspirated drivetrains. While turbo or supercharged engines can get away with smaller displacements, because they force the fuel into the combustion chambers, the best way to make more ponies with air-breathers is to increase the cubic inches.

My first question about the 2024 Honda Ridgeline TrailSport was, “Can we take it on the extreme course?” I was at Mudfest, an annual off-road vehicle shootout hosted by the Northwest Automotive Press Association (NWAPA). There are two off-road courses at the event, a general one that even relatively pedestrian crossovers like the Hyundai Kona can handle and an extreme one meant for hard-core machines like the Ineos Grenadier. You have to bring a PR person with you on that one. “Absolutely,” replied Honda PR man Brad Nelson, and off we went.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

(MA) Meet Winks, an adorable and incredibly strong puppy with a heartbreaking origin. Winks was found unmoving on the side of a road with severe injuries. He had several very infected wounds and was barely holding on when his rescuers rushed him to the vet. Once there, x-rays revealed the horrifying truth that Winks had been shot numerous times around his face and neck. These injuries resulted in him having his eye removed. Despite that, Winks has made a miraculous and full recovery. He certainly does not let his handicap slow him down at his new foster home. Winks was truly given a second chance at life, and now all he needs is a family to call his own.

Performance pickups are nothing new, going all the way back to the 1955 Chevrolet Cameo Carrier hot rod truck. They were, for the most part, fast for trucks and not necessarily competitive with performance cars. The 1978 Dodge Li'l Red Express, the 1990 Chevy C1500 454 SS, and the 2001 Ford SVT Lightning could all blow away every other truck on the road, but couldn't hang against top-performance cars.
