    Back in the early '90s, a new wave of vehicles took over the automotive world. The humble minivan was taking families out of sedans and wagons and putting the traditional car in danger.

    If ever you needed a demonstration of why Chevy went mid-engine for the latest Corvette, this is it. This video shows a C8 Corvette drag racing and roll racing against a CTS-V.

    A few weeks ago, I started watching King of the Hill for the first time (I know, I was missing out) and it was a little disheartening to see just how applicable the show still was. All of the jokes about America's troubles still pretty much play. I feel the same way watching this video about...

    Anyone who has ever been stuck in the mud, watching their tires spin futilely may have, at one point, wondered if adding more bite points could have helped.

    Although you might not call the C8 Corvette a feat of engineering, it is still a fascinating look into just how super a mass-produced car can be made.

    The sound of an engine is another piece in the rich tapestry of what makes cars so interesting. But why does a V8 sound like syncopated thunder when an inline-four sounds like a freshly opened can of farts? The answer? Because they're different. Now that may sound like a cop-out but it isn't...

    As we found out recently, the C8 Corvette has some very impressive performance figures. Along with a sub-three second 0-60 time, a top speed of 194 mph means the first mid-engine Corvette lives up to its supercar looks. But have you ever wondered if the figures that automakers quote are, you...

    Back in the late '50s, two French explorers, exploring the Atacama Desert in their equally French Citroen 2CV ran out of oil.
