VIDEO: How NOT to unload your car from a trailer

Oct 26th 2008 7:17PM (Autoblog)
Given the confines of the box truck, how was someone in the car? Did they travel in the car for the trip!?

Nissan makes offer for 20% of Chrysler

Cut out the middle man (Cerberus). Nissan should just buy the 19.9% directly from Daimler.

Win a Magellan Roadmate 1400 satnav and 'Baja: Edge of Control' for the Xbox 360!

Well, I finally saved up enough to buy a 360, so Baja would be my first game to play on it.
As far as the GPS goes I'd likely give it to my mother who is getting older and gets turned around sometimes. I'm not sure if she would like the device or not, if not I'd likely use extensively when I go on my famed random car rides.

Future Classic: Ford Focus SVT

My comment is based on the handling characteristics of the car, nothing more. Considering that the SVT Focus could out handle a base Porsche in the slalom, I think the statement has validity.

Sorry, the Torque went from 135 --> 145. Not from 130.

Poor man's Porsche is what I've always said.

By the way, there is an inaccuracy I believe: "Engine tweaks were good for a substantial 50-hp gain to 170."

The base Zetec is 130-hp, so the increase was only 40-hp. Torque saw an increase of 15 ft-lbs I think, 130-->145.

It has Larry David on it, Brad Pitt maybe, is this a new movie or am I totally missing some pop culture reference?

Birth of a tagline - Mitsubishi brings the confusion

Jun 19th 2008 6:32PM (Autoblog)
Ha! Mitsu's parent company is one of the worse environmental track records for a corporation:

The Mitsubishi Corporation (best known for its cars and electronics) is involved in importing large quantities of tropical rainforest timber into Japan. A Mitsubishi Group subsidiary has, for the last 15 years, been clear-cutting huge areas of tropical rainforest in Sarawk to supply the Japanese market. Its logging activities there continue 24 hours a day, with the aid of flood lights. Mitsubishi has further logging interests in nine other countries. Another subsidiary is opening a mine in the last large area of Ecuadorian coastal rainforest. The area is home of the Awa Indian nation as well as the Cotacachi-Cayapas Ecological Reserve, identified as Ecuador's highest are of priority for biodiversity conservation by the US Agency for International Development.

Goodluck with that marketing campaign...
