  • Lebanon Ford Performance F-150 with 725 hp

    Lebanon Ford in Ohio strikes again. For years, the dealership has offered rather affordable high-horsepower Mustangs. Now, it'll sell anyone a 725-horsepower F-150 for $39,995. The truck deal is pretty much identical to the one for the Mustang: Any buyer can choose the F-150 they want, configure the truck exactly as they want it, and then choose from a few supercharger and turbocharger kits. Lebanon Ford Performance installs the parts and dials everything in. The dealer made it clear the freedom of choice is the best part. Although, the advertised $39,995 price doesn't include a...

  • Nissan Altima-te AWD sedan with tracks

    Following a tradition that's dated back four years, Nissan has put another one of its vehicles on snow tracks.

Previous entries to receive the wild treatment include the Juke, Rogue, Pathfinder, and 370Z. The Altima as the latest Warrior makes a lot of sense. The redesigned 2019 model is the first time Nissan has outfitted the sedan with all-wheel drive, and the brand plans to parade the Altima-te...

    This is not a drill: Jeep Wrangler 6x6 with 707-hp Hellcat V-8 exists

    If America had an official SUV, it would probably look something like this.

  • Suzuki Jimny Black Bison edition from Wald International

    Japan's Wald International has ditched the Suzuki Jimny's standard cute-ute look and instead given the off-roader a more sinister demeanor. It's called the Jimny Black Bison edition, and it does its best to further emulate the Mercedes-Benz G-Class in all the right ways. The special edition starts life as a Jimny Sierra variant and Wald then adds a redesigned front bumper, new grille, headlight covers, and an aerodynamic hood. A four-piece LED headlight system is included with the new front bumper, and LED lights feature on the roof too. There's also a set of knobbier off-road tires in place...

  • Bitter Shooting Brake

    Bitter is a German tuner of Opel cars that made its mark on the world in the 1970s when it produced a shooting brake called the CD. The car was based on an Opel sedan and came with a Chevrolet V-8, and it had the full blessing of General Motors, which owned Opel at the time. In fact, legendary GM designer Charles M. "Chuck" Jordan did some of the preliminary work. Bitter fell into obscurity by the 1980s but the lack of limelight didn't stop the company from continuing to churn out modified Opels, as well as some other novelties. More recently, Bitter has developed custom versions of the Opel...
