Low & Wide OBS Silverado – on a Craftsman Truck Series chassis

Curious creativity. Or as the kids call it: FAFO. That’s what the hotrod spirit is REALLY all about. It’s not about conformity, fitting in, or following an influencer. Rather - it’s about handing over the keys to that curious/devious voice inside your head. And making...

Celica GT-Four – Enthusiasts Make Enthusiasts

The Celica GT-Four is a cool car, no doubt. But for John Mamone, it’s honestly not about the car. It’s about the friendships. Interesting cars are just the common thread here… the glue. Yeah-yeah I know that sounds cliché. But when you break it down, it’s everything. ...

Cars at the Capitol – hosted by SEMA & PRI

I was recently given the opportunity to participate in the Cars At The Capitol event hosted by SEMA & PRI. My car, a 1995 3000GT Spyder (previously featured in S3) was included as part of a 9-vehicle display hosted on Capitol Hill. What an experience! This diverse...

Lincoln Nautilus – American Luxury Made in China

If you want a pampering, luxurious, tech-forward driving experience, the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus should be on your list. BUT... it's made in China. Maybe you care about that, maybe you don’t. But historically when you think “Lincoln” you tend to think premium American...

Owning an Autozam AZ-1

Jade Richardson is a software engineer from California, and I’ll tell ya why that’s relevant. It’s relevant because even HE understands (*as a software engineer from California*) that all cars don’t need to drive like damn iPhones, Teslas, or automated tech support....

Will Lockwood’s S14.5 240SX – gaining STATURE

What are we chasing man? Let's call it out. In today’s culture, I think a lot of us are chasing attention, adoration, clout, power, followers, envy, dollars, etc. But on a deeper level, to be more specific & fair, I think what we’re really chasing is relevance....

Genesis GV60 review – politics aside

If you don’t like electric vehicles, you should drive the Genesis GV60. Because here’s the thing: I don’t like EVs either. At least I was pretty convinced I didn’t. But the driving experience of the Genesis GV60 is good enough to make me realize, it’s actually not the...

Toyota is earning their fanbase the old-fashion way

For a lot of us, car purchases are emotionally driven. Buying a vehicle is more than just 'buying a vehicle', it’s a show of support for the brand. Throughout my life, I've formed strong emotional connections with several brands for several different reasons. And...

k-swapped C6 Corvette

It’s weird ok. I mean who on earth sticks a Honda motor in a C6 Corvette? We get it... K-swaps are cool. VTEC is a lifestyle. But this?! This is just backwards. These dudes went from Ds to Bs lol. Here's the path that led to a k-swapped turbocharged C6 Corvette: First...

2017 Mercedes Benz SL450 Review

Sometimes folks….you don’t need the bigger motor.  Hear me out before you start grabbing your pitchforks!  The twin turbo 6 on this 2017 Mercedes Benz SL450 is a pure gem.  It sounds like a V8 on startup, revs like it is a DC motor and has a torque curve as flat as...

2017 Nissan Maxima Review

2017 Nissan Maxima Review

Full Disclosure:  My dad had a 1986 Nissan Maxima he kept lovingly for close to 30 years.  She was a member of the family so to say we have a special place in our hearts for the Maxima line tends to be an understatement. [gallery type="rectangular" size="medium"...

2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack Review

2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack Review

Don’t do what I did, and accidentally mistake the 2017 Golf Alltrack for some sort of all-terrain GTI… you’ll be let down. It’s an easy mistake to make. The Alltrack has cool & adventurous trim. It sparks some curiosity. It seems maybe a little separated from the...

Fiat 124 Spider Review

Step back and reconsider what you might have heard from the mainstream automotive journalists… the Fiat 124 Spider is more fun than the Mazda MX-5. And I’m at least 87% sure of that. Reality is: most old-school automotive journalists fell in love with the Miata/MX-5...

What’s Cooler Than Being Cool? Icelandic Cold! – Iceland 4×4

Text: Wooley // Photos: Jonathan Walker

How much do you trust your own abilities? Really. Because every time you get behind the wheel of the car you’ve wrenched on yourself, you’re subliminally asking yourself that question. Do you trust yourself enough to get around town everyday? Yeah probably. But how ‘bout the track?
