This Monday is also particularly crummy because there are a lot of bad things […]

2021 Ford GT Reveal Set for Petersen Car Week
The Ford GT is kind of like Schrödinger’s Car. (Or at least probably a really crude understanding of Schrödinger’s Car. I’m not a physics genius. Are you?) It’s a car that definitely exists in the sense that there are hundreds of them, but does it truly exist if you have a virtual zero-percent chance of […]

EPA Looks to Ax Rule To Require Emissions-Compliant Engines in New Truck Bodies
It is probably fair to say that the Trump administration enjoys it some good old deregulation. It already was looking speculatively at a number of NHTSA regulations (which, if axed, would make your electric car a dangerously silent vehicle), removed an infrastructure rule that would make building projects flood-resistant, and rolled back the final OK […]
