The rebates, which started Tuesday and run to May 21, are a combination of existing offers and dealer and cash inducements for current GM owners for models such as the Chevrolet Tahoe sport utility vehicle and GMC Sierra large pickup, spokesman John McDonald said. "The market is pretty challenging right now, so we... Full article...

What analysts found is that certain brands are more likely than others to be dominated by a particular gender, while others are more gender-neutral in their ownership. For instance, ownership of exotic sports cars was heavily male, while many of the more practical, affordable brands were mostly owned by women.

The reason it isn't as bad as some will tell you is because most outlets compare the volume of cars sold last month to the same month in 2007, rather than comparing the average number of cars sold per day. Since there were two extra selling days last year 28 vs. 26, looking at the raw numbers is very misleading. All of our numbers below represent the change... Full article...

For some, however, the rugged vehicles represent a dream come true. The husband-wife art duo of Lauren Was and Adam Eckstrom wanted to make their own H3, and they used $35,000 in worthless lottery tickets to get the job done. The couple's work of art is called "Ghost of a Dream," and the idea behind the name is that people often dream of buying a new car when... Full article...

The catch: the businessman is a HUMMER dealer, and the pumps are next to his dealership. The station is called Classic Clean Fuels, and it is intended to make a statement for next year's H2 and H2 SUT, which will be the first production models to be Flex-fuel capable. You won't need to drive a HUMMER to get E85 at the station. The pumps are open to the public, a first for a dealer-owned... Full article...

Perhaps you can already tell where we're going with this... for the sake of the story, though, we'll continue. What might happen if your car were stolen? You'd be giving a thief keys to the car they just stole, plus, as a bonus, the keys to your other car.Unfortunately for at least one man, the scenario in the preceding paragraph is a true story.
