The Ford Maverick Already Has One of the Best Interiors

The Ford Maverick has been in the news a lot recently. Frankly, the small truck has kicked off something of a renaissance in the small truck market, started earlier by the brand's own Ranger truck. Hyundai followed suit with the Santa Cruise, but "Maverick" is the word on everyone's lips. Moreover, the interior is no exception, and images show that Ford put a lot of effort into it. Then again, Ford has been doing that a lot lately.

Are Colored Headlights Dangerous and Illegal?

We all like the idea of customizing a vehicle to make it our own. We may add bumper stickers, use seat and steering wheel covers, and add window visors. These are all good car safety customization options. However, not all modifications are a good idea. Some lighting modifications, including colored headlights, are dangerous and illegal.

What Happens When Your Auction Winner Won’t Pay?

Let's be honest with ourselves for a minute. Buying a car is exciting. Especially at auction. Selling one? Not so much. Unfortunately, it can be a real headache. A stressful experience to say the least. So what happens in the worst-case scenario? You've listed your car for auction, gotten the money you wanted, and now the buyer won't cough up the cash.

The Cost of Headlight Repairs Is on the Rise

Overall, the cost of a new car is insane. So is the cost of a used car. With that, comes the inevitable rise in repair costs. Cars are becoming ever more complex, and that means consumers pay for it at the mechanic. Even little stuff, like headlight repairs, can cost significantly more than it did twenty, or even just ten years ago.

Market Madness Means Man Paid $2.00 for a Tesla Model 3

Two dollars don't get you much. My grandfather would give me two dollars for organizing his bookshelf. Sometimes. Then, I'd go out and spend my two whole U.S dollars on Hotwheels. Evidently, one man decided to take that idea a little further and buy a whole ass car for a net loss of $2.00 even. If this isn't the perfect analogy for the absurdity of the auto market right now, I really don't know what is.

Just like a person, the aged concept of the sports car has started to show its age. Vision has been muddled by corporate bylines and slogans, and weight has shown up in unexpected places. Fortunately, the 2021 BMW M440i is trying to turn the clock back.

Does the 2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing Shake “That” Reputation?

Cadillac has an image problem. The American brand wants the 2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing to change that. Maybe the brand should start with a shorter, less confusing name. Regardless, it's an image problem that Cadillac has been fighting since the launch of their V Series models back in 2006. That's a very long time to fight an image problem that's as ingrained in American society as our involvement in the Middle East.
