As car enthusiasts, we tend to have a special connection to our cars, even if you're more on the unhinged end of the spectrum and you have no mechanical sympathy. Either way you're likely to have learned a thing or two from your cars. For many of us, the infatuation with cars started early, so we've been collecting automotive data in our mental catalogues long before we could even drive, let alone afford to purchase our first cars. Sometimes that leads to, let's call them valuable learning experiences, and as such, we want to know what car you've owned that taught you the most about yourself. Share your anecdote in the comments section down below!
Honda is committed to turning the Passport into a 4Runner rival, reengineering the suspension for 2027.
The new setup raises ground clearance by a little more than an inch to 9.7 inches, and approach and departure angles improve by two degrees each.
A front-end refresh TRX-izes the hood with amber lights in its hood scoop.
Honda is all-in on its TrailSport models, to the point that we wouldn't be surprised by the announcement of a Prelude TrailSport. In the case of the Passport, the TrailSport versions now account for more than 80 percent of sales. So, even though this generation of Passport was new for 2025, Honda’s already set about tinkering to improve its off-road cred. Thus, the 2027 Passport TrailSport gets an upgrade familiar to anyone who’s ever tried to fit 32-inch tires on their Jeep XJ: a lift kit.
Dubbed the "Bat Rod" by its seller because of its black paint and Caddy tail fins, today's Nice Price or No Dice Grand Prix convertible is not just a classic; it's a one-of-a-kind cruiser. Let's see if we like its one-of-a-kind price.
Racing is a costly endeavor. There’s a classic saying that if you want to make $1 million in racing, start with $2 million. That figure could now easily be $10 million or more, as more technologically complex cars have seen costs skyrocket. Still, many automakers see value in racing, and particularly in the World Endurance Championship. The top Hypercar class alone hosts an array of automotive juggernauts, from Ferrari to BMW to Cadillac and Toyota.
It turns out those Flock cameras aren't the only example of AI surveillance that are ticking people off anymore. The city of Dallas, TX has installed side-facing AI-powered cameras onto its garbage trucks that photograph properties, scan the photos for any potential code violations, and assign what's called a 'blight score' based on the severity of the code infraction.
Roadway safety conventions tend to fall into one of two buckets. First, there are the things that help you avoid a crash. This includes everything from basic signage and high-tech traffic light systems with sensors, to road reflectors and those half black-and-white highway strips used to delineate lanes. The other bucket contains things intended to reduce crash severity, like guard rails, wide grass medians, and concrete highway barriers.
Over the last decade, the U.S. Navy has spent $3.4 billion on attack submarines waiting for maintenance, sometimes for years at a stretch, according to a new report from the Government Accountability Office. Looking forward, Navy shipyards are so backlogged with work that they may not be able to get to the subs marked for decommission for another few years, adding up to a further $3.1 billion. That is a total of $6.5 billion of your dollars spent on attack subs that can't do anything, and in some cases, won't ever do anything again. What did you want, health care?
Morgan has been building essentially the same car since the company's founding in the late Cenozoic era. That means that today's Nice Price or No Dice Plus 8 could have come from the 1960s or 2000s. Being a '73 means that, even in California, no one will ever need to "smog the Mog." Let's see if its price is an additional enticement.
At sea for a total of 286 days, including over 40 days of combat operations in the war with Iran and only two days at port, the crew of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln has at last made landfall once again. Docking in Pattaya, Thailand, the 5,000 personnel of the floating airport will get shore leave for the next few days. Their record-breaking deployment time was reportedly stressful to the point of suicidal, with multiple reported overboard attempts, scary messages to families back home, insufficient food due to supply bases getting bombed, and woeful living conditions. President Donald Trump famously said that this deployment was "not nearly long enough." The reporting seems to have been bad enough to get him to change his mind.
