This story starts at the end of the race shop tour, where I got a special treat: the 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 "Carbon"...

Ford Customer Service Division has you covered as they are giving away a new 2011 Mustang GT with the all-new 5.0-liter V-8 as part of the "Mustang 5.0 Fever" sweepstakes. For the sweepstakes one grand prize winner will be selected to drive away in an all-new...
As federal government agencies add electric vehicles to their fleet, will consumers notice and follow along? If an agency such as the USPS, who is seen be everyone, employs electric vehicles in daily use will consumers believe that EVs are feasible, reliable means of transportation and follow suit? These questions will remain unanswered for some...
