What caught Baker's attention wasn't just the bugs, rodents and other crawly creatures that were being exterminated, but the fact that ISOTECH's pickups were equipped with truck caps produced by A.R.E., the Massillon, Ohio-based company where Baker works as director of marketing. Baker did some checking and learned that 90 percent of ISOTECH's fleet of more than... Full article...

It's that dead space between models that other carmakers have filled -- making their offerings look less expensive and, thus, more attractive. The rocket ship $100,000 ZR1 sits atop the mountain, while the fiery $75,000 Z06 remains parked nearby, looking slightly agitated. Then there's the $49,000 base model Corvette -- the Cooper Manning of the Corvette family. It's the oldest, but no one brings it up in conversations about performance. Even the $26,000 price...

"I like very pure, minimalistic, empty space," says the 41-year-old product designer. Schubert's home, under construction on two acres in the Brentwood neighborhood of West Los Angeles, will be a symphony in spareness: three glass boxes as the main living quarters, a pool house with cantilevered roof, a Japanese tea house and a glass-walled...

Why haven't I seen that before?" This was exactly the case when I heard about what Larry Smith was launching. Smith is the affable owner of Autometric Collision, on the board of the Meadow Brook Concours, and one of Detroit's pre-eminent car nuts. His collection includes all manner of vehicles ranging from the advanced 1938 Stout Scarab engineered by William B. Stout, the man behind the legendary Ford Tri-Motor... Full article...

The courtship allows you to look over any flaws, the honeymoon makes you forget about them, and only on the commute to work do you undergo a David Byrne epiphany: This is not my beautiful car. No wonder the divorce rate in America hovers around 6,000 percent. But such a regret would never enter your mind behind the wheel of the 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon, the logical European-inspired version of the stellar CTS sedan.

With a coupe-like roofline, the all new S60 will add sex appeal to the once boxy and somewhat boring Volvo lineup. The S60 will eventually be offered with a high-efficiency gasoline turbocharged direct-injection 1.6-liter engine mated to a twin-clutch transmission -- with an estimated-combined 47 miles per...
