Testing is under way, and we've spied this very production-looking prototype cruising the rural roads of Michigan. Compared to the prototypes we saw last year, the new one has a very finished look, right down to the two massive center-mount exhaust outlets; larger, sportier wheels; and V-series badging. We can also see that this new prototype is not sporting cross-drilled... Full article...

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...

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.

And that means Chinese tire makers are not the only ones scrambling in the wake of President Barack Obama's new tariffs. Hankook Tire supplies the base tires for the Ford F-150. It is not a Chinese company, but a Korean manufacturer with factories in China. That still means that tires produced at those facilities, including those for the... Full article...
