Muddy Mondays: Cummins Ram Digs Through the Deep Mud

I initially came across this clip when searching for a “Black Fridays” piece and while there is plenty of thick diesel smoke filling the air – the 2nd gen Ram 2500 in action in this video was just too covered in mud not to feature it on Muddy Monday.

Road & Track: Lexus IS350 F Sport Bests ATS, 335i and Q50

While it apparently pained them to say it, in a four-way shootout between offerings from BMW, Cadillac and Infiniti the editors at Road & Track, the scribes from America’s coolest car magazine felt the Lexus earned the top spot. While there have been signs of vulnerability in Bavaria’s products as of late—fake engine sounds are [...]

Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series vs BMW M6 Featured

If you can forgive the flamboyant music at the beginning of this video, you’ll enjoy watching this installment of Russian drag racing. If you can’t stand butt techno, you might want to press on, but you’ll miss out on some good action between a stock 670-horsepower Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series, a 680-horsepower PP-Performance Stage […]

Steve McQueen’s Ranch Officially On Sale

Let’s cut to the chase here. This place has a 1,728 sq-ft garage. That’s not so much a “garage” as it is “a house for your cars.” Of course, that makes sense considering the former owner of the ranch was Steve McQueen. Though the 500+ acre ranch used to belong to McQueen, most of the [...]
